Comprehensive general dentistry for all ages at Lockleys Dental Clinic — check-ups, fillings, AirFlow cleaning, and preventive care. Call (08) 8443 7634.
General dentistry is the foundation of a healthy smile. At Lockleys Dental Clinic, we provide comprehensive care for the whole family — from routine check-ups and professional cleans to fillings, digital X-rays, and personalised treatment plans. Our aim is to keep small problems from becoming big ones.
We're a preferred provider for Bupa, NIB, and HCF, and we accept Afterpay to help make dental care accessible. Our three dentists — Dr Katherine Rao, Dr Alex Furlan, and Dr Katherine Fang — bring a wide range of skills to general and preventive care.
A thorough examination of your teeth, gums, jaw, and soft tissues. We check for early signs of decay, gum disease, and other concerns — catching issues early saves time, money, and discomfort later. Digital X-rays are taken when clinically appropriate.
We use the Airflow system for a gentle, effective clean that removes staining, plaque, and biofilm — including in areas traditional instruments can't easily reach. It's particularly comfortable for patients with sensitive gums and produces noticeably clean results.
When decay occurs, we restore teeth using tooth-coloured composite resin that blends naturally with your smile. We aim to preserve as much of your natural tooth structure as possible in every restoration.
Gum disease is one of the most common dental conditions in Australia and is often painless in its early stages. We assess your gum health at every visit and provide treatment and home care advice to protect your gums and supporting bone.
Custom-fitted mouthguards offer far better protection than over-the-counter options — both for sport and for patients who grind their teeth at night. We take precise impressions to create a guard that fits well and lasts.
Most dental problems develop slowly and quietly. By the time you notice pain or visible damage, the issue has often progressed well beyond its earliest stage. Regular check-ups allow us to catch decay, gum disease, and structural changes early — when they're easiest and least expensive to manage.
We recommend a check-up and clean every six months for most patients, though your dentist will advise a schedule based on your individual needs and risk profile.
Whether it's a routine check-up or something more complex, our team is here to help. Call us or drop in — we're on Henley Beach Road.
