Services

We provide a wide range of paediatric dental services, including general dentistry, minor oral surgery, emergency dentistry, and special needs dentistry.

Tooth Town is a specialist paediatric dental practice in Coorparoo, Brisbane. We treat children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers, in a clinic designed to make dental visits fun, relaxed and free of the anxiety children can sometimes feel at the dentist. We also provide sedation options, including happy gas and general anaesthesia.

Check-ups and prevention

Healthy smiles start with prevention. Our general dentistry service covers comprehensive examinations that look at far more than teeth — including airway, sleep and habits — while our preventive services help stop decay before it starts. For our littlest patients, infant oral health exams give babies a gentle, positive first visit by their first birthday. And because every age brings something new, our guide to dental care at different ages shows what to expect as your child grows.

Repairing and protecting teeth

When teeth need fixing, we make it as comfortable as possible. Tooth-coloured fillings repair cavities and chips so they’re hardly noticeable, while crowns protect teeth that are too damaged for a filling alone. Where decay or injury has reached the nerve, nerve treatment (root canals) can often save the tooth — and when a tooth truly can’t be saved, gentle extraction with proper planning protects the adult tooth to come. For teeth that are stuck, extra or coming through in the wrong place, our minor oral surgery service manages the trickier quirks of growing mouths.

When something happens suddenly

Accidents and toothaches don’t make appointments. Our emergency dentistry service prioritises children in pain — from knocked and broken teeth to overnight swelling — with the earliest available consultation and clear first-aid guidance for parents.

Comfort, calm and access for every child

Some children need a little extra help to feel at ease — and some need a lot, and that’s okay. Our sedation options, from happy gas through to treatment under general anaesthesia in hospital, let every child receive the care they need comfortably. Our special needs dentistry service, led with genuine love for what we do, welcomes children of all abilities with quiet rooms, patient familiarisation visits and close teamwork with families and carers.

Feeding, function and development

Sometimes the concern isn’t a tooth at all. Our tongue and lip tie assessments support families experiencing feeding difficulties, with careful, function-based assessment for babies and children.

Frequently asked questions

What ages do you treat?

All of childhood — from newborn babies through to teenagers. As a specialist paediatric practice, everything about Tooth Town, from our clinic design to our clinical training, is built around children and young people.

My child is nervous about the dentist. Can you help?

Absolutely — it’s what we do best. Visits move at your child’s pace, and comfort options like happy gas are available where needed. Our guide to helping an anxious child feel ready for the dentist is a great place to start.

Can we use the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS)?

Eligible children can use the CDBS for check-ups, X-rays and preventive services. Our team can help you check your child’s eligibility, and our CDBS guide explains what’s covered.

Do I need a referral to book?

You’re welcome to contact us directly to arrange an appointment. We also warmly welcome referrals from general dentists, GPs, paediatricians and other health professionals — see our referral information page.
