Practice Philosophy

We understand that choosing a new dentist and dental healthcare team can be a challenge. Instead of lecturing you about teeth, we listen to you and help you understand your choices. We give you enough information to make your own decisions about what you want from us, for your mouth and for yourself.

“Smile* is our philosophy to focus on the service to you, not just the procedure, to build a long term relationship to maintain your wellbeing, to work with you and your feelings, not just what you “need”. It’s a big picture, whole person, long-term approach.

So, your first choice is to decide – IF WE ARE THE DENTAL HEALTH CARE TEAM FOR YOU ?

We aren’t for everyone and if you are delighted with your current dental care, please read no further.

We are a small general dental practice. Whilst we cannot be everything to all people, we believe our purpose is to help you be as healthy as you can and enhance the quality of your life. We believe in preventing pain, disease and dysfunction.

GET WELL and STAY WELL. It’s a big picture, whole person, long-term approach.

Dentists have a unique position in healthcare because we deal with nutrition and breathing everyday. Therefore we are able to help you with general wellness, not just dental health.

To achieve this, we base your visits on a program of preventive care, and aim to get you away from discomfort and damage of tooth decay and gum disease. We call this Smilecare.

If therapeutic treatment is required, minimum intervention techniques and long-lasting bonded cosmetic materials are used to improve function and appearance. This is what we call being a Smiledentist.

Our staff take pride in our trustworthy reputation and word of mouth recommendations from the many people we have been caring for over the last 17 years.

When we have to provide dental treatment, we want it done as well as today’s technology can achieve. We don’t want you to have any problems, so we don’t recommend methods or materials that are substandard, and we won’t advise you to take short-term solutions.

We want you to have dentistry that looks great, feels good and lasts a long time.

We don’t use amalgam. We can restore teeth immediately with bio-compatible,
long-lasting ceramic fillings made with our Cerec milling machine. We also utilize internationally recognized Ceramists for our cosmetic dental implants, crowns and veneers.

Because we are focused on health maintenance, we have two experienced Dental Hygienists to manage our world-class Smilecare program.

We are proud to stand by the quality of our service, pervading our choice of the best in staff, materials, equipment, dental laboratories and standards of procedures.

Jaw joint problems, sleep disordered breathing and headache prevention are part of our Sleepwellbewell service. How can a dentist help you sleep better? … Come and ask us!

We are a referral based practice and appreciate the compliment of trust that you extend to us when you recommend our service to your family and friends.

We provide excellence in personal care, creating Smiles*.

Thank you for letting us be of service to you by choosing your dentistry at Albany Dental and Sleep Health Centre.
