Frequently Asked Questions - Core Dental Caroline Springs

What makes Caroline Springs different from other Core Dental locations? Caroline Springs has the most advanced technology in the group (CBCT 3D imaging, digital smile design), the most multilingual team (Arabic, Bengali, Farsi), and the broadest specialist access (orthodontist, paediatric dentist, CBCT-guided implant planning). It is the flagship technology location for the group.

Can I see my smile before treatment starts? Yes - our digital smile design software lets you preview your proposed cosmetic outcome before any tooth preparation takes place. This applies to veneers, composite bonding, whitening, and smile makeovers. Simply ask for a smile preview consultation.

What is the CBCT scanner used for? CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) provides a 3D view of your teeth, jawbone, sinuses, and nerve pathways. It is used for precise implant planning, identifying hidden infections, complex orthodontic assessment, and planning surgical extractions. Having this technology in-practice avoids the need for referral to a radiology centre.

Is parking free at Caroline Springs? Yes - free parking is available directly behind the practice. The practice is also accessible from CS Square shopping centre.

Does Caroline Springs offer Invisalign Teen? Yes - Invisalign Teen is available at Caroline Springs with specialist orthodontist Dr David Austin. Teen aligners include compliance indicators (coloured dots that fade with wear) and spare aligners. Call (03) 9363 7888 to book a free consultation.
