A lifetime of healthy smiles

Maintaining your beautiful smile

At Victoria Dental Centre in Christchurch we are committed to providing you with the highest quality oral health care in a caring and efficient manner.

Our qualified dentists and dental hygienist prevent and treat all kinds of dental problems including tooth decay, tooth loss, toothache, cavities, discoloured teeth and bad breath.  We attend courses and conferences to ensure we are able to provide the most up to date treatments.

We take the time to provide the information you need to select the best treatment option. We also welcome your questions and are happy to discuss fees.

To make your time in the dental chair more comfortable we can provide gentle sedation if required. Or why not watch a movie of your choice through special glasses?

Once your treatment is completed, you will be invited to join our continuing care programme to help maintain your oral health. We provide a convenient reminder for your regular maintenance via text, email or phone.

polish fillings
whiten teeth

Our hygienist will also tailor a homecare regime especially to suit your needs.

Active Maintenance

When you complete your treatment you will be leaving with your next examination or hygiene appointment.

Research is showing that harmful bacteria in your mouth, gums and teeth are linked to heart disease, diabetes, strokes and most recently pneumonia.

It is now even more important to keep your mouth free of dental disease.

Six monthly visits will help guard you against these devastating diseases.

Sedation

For anxious patients or long procedures, we can provide gentle sedation. We have “Penthrox(TM)” gas which is very safe and effective and wears off at the end of the appointment.

Painless Dentistry

Latest techniques available to deliver painfree injections using Wand® Plus.
