The Welcome Package

Macquarie Dentists is excited to welcome you with an hour dedicated to one of our gentle and highly skilled dentists. Included in The Welcome Package is a comprehensive examination, complete with x-rays, photos, consultation, and oral hygiene treatment.

Our calm, gentle and understanding dentists believe that The Welcome Package allows them to help patients achieve and maintain good oral health and tailor treatment and preventative care to an individual’s needs, budget and wishes.

Valued at over $500, The Welcome Package is currently available for just $200 for the month of October 2024. Additionally, for those with health insurance, there may be little to no out-of-pocket expenses*.

• At this initial consultation you can expect the dentist to perform the following:
• A discussion of your medical history and past dental treatments and experiences
• Understanding your dental concerns, as well as specific needs or goals you want to achieve
• Taking adequate low-dose digital x-rays to identify any issues below the gum-line, in-between teeth or underneath previous dental treatment
• Taking clinical photographs of your teeth, gums and smile
• Assessing your jaw joint, muscles and bite
• Oral cancer screening
• Assessment of your gum health and any periodontal issues
• Assessment of your teeth
• At the end of this examination we will have a discussion about your oral health and any issues of your mouth or jaw identified during the examination. We will address any specific concerns you may have and will go through all treatment options at length to put together a tailored treatment plan just for you.
• After assessing your periodontal condition we will then proceed to a professional scale, clean and fluoride application of your teeth^.

* Patients must have private health insurance with dental extras. Out of pocket gap payment will just be up to the total price of the package. If your health fund pays more than the price of the package then this difference will not be refunded or applied as a credit to your account.

^ If you do not see a dentist every 6 months, or suffer from periodontal disease, subsequent visits may be required to get your oral hygiene back on track, additional periodontal treatment is at an extra cost.

Your First Appointment

During your first appointment our dentists will start by understanding the purpose and what your goals are for the visit. If your visit is to address a certain problem or issue we will do our best to make progress on addressing the issue during the visit. We will listen carefully to your concerns and following some diagnostic tests, will discuss the findings, describe the situation and treatment options to help you make the best decision on which treatment is best for you. At all times we focus on ensuring that you are comfortable during the procedure and our dentists’ calm and patient-centred approach will put any anxious patients at ease.
