General and Preventive Dentistry
At Maroubra Family Dental, we offer a comprehensive array of preventive and general dentistry services to address the needs of your entire family.
Whether you are seeking a new dental home to help maintain your healthy smile, or if you are experiencing a specific dental issue, we can provide the care you need. Our goal is to help ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Preventive Care
We believe that prevention is one way to build a solid foundation for good oral health. Preventive care includes not only diligent home care, including a regimen of brushing and flossing daily, but it also means visiting your dentist and hygienist twice each year for examinations and cleans.
Even if your teeth feel fine and you are not experiencing any dental issues, coming to our Maroubra Junction, NSW dental surgery every six months gives out dentists the chance to spot issues while they are still small. The earlier we can detect problems such as tooth decay, the easier, less invasive and less expensive your treatment options in most cases.

Children’s Dentistry
We enjoy treating children at Maroubra Family Dental, and we recommend you start bringing your little ones to see us by the time they are two or three years old. At this age, they are better able to sit in the dentist chair without wiggling too much. We also ensure that we communicate with your kids in an age-appropriate manner, nor will we do anything that makes your child feel uncomfortable.
Our goal with these early dental visits is to help youngsters feel comfortable with the dentist. Kids who have no fear of the dentist tend to grow into adults who have no fear of the dentist, and they are more apt to take good care of their oral health.
We also offer fluoride applications and fissure sealants for your child. Both of these are minimally invasive options that can help keep cavities from forming. Although your child will lose their primary teeth, their presence is crucial for maintaining space for adult teeth to erupt. They mustn't be lost prematurely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Many people don’t realise the importance of preventive care when it comes to their dentistry. With check-ups and cleans every six months at our Maroubra Junction, NSW dental clinic, Dr Pertsoulis can help you maintain and improve your oral health. Routine examinations enable him to detect dental issues while they are still small and easier—and usually less expensive—to treat.
For example, if you skip routine dental check-ups, a tiny spot of tooth decay on your tooth won’t be noticed. Tooth decay doesn’t generally come with any symptoms while still in the early stages. But left untreated, a small spot of tooth decay often continues to grow. If you put off routine dental care, that small bit of tooth decay can get bigger, ultimately letting bacteria into the tooth root. Suddenly, you have an unbearable toothache that sends you in for an emergency dental appointment. You might be upset to learn that now you need a root canal. A preventive care examination might have prevented the need for this more invasive treatment.
It might make sense to save your money and skip dental visits, but in the end, you might spend more of your hard-earned money—and you might spend more time in the dental chair.
Here at Maroubra Family Dental, we believe everyone deserves quality dentistry. We want to make good oral health accessible to everyone in Maroubra Junction, NSW and the surrounding communities. Taking good care of your teeth and gums is one of the best things you can do for your overall well-being. Preventive appointments, including regular check-ups and cleans, are a crucial part of that.
Visiting the dentist every six months for check-ups and cleans might seem like a budgeting burden, but the truth is that it can save you in the long run because preventive care now often means you won’t need more invasive treatments later. We offer numerous payment options so you can fit regular dental care into your family’s budget.
