Practice Philosophy

Our practice philosophy is to obtain ideal long-term results for you. We aim to always provide you with:

• Personal service and gentle dental care.
• Professional and prompt service.
• Caring, willing and highly trained staff.
• Service using up-to-date technology, techniques and materials.
• Prompt advice and assistance at times when your “emergencies” arise.
• Personal attention to detail, dental education, and disease prevention.
• Treatment options to suit your personal needs, budget, and lifestyle requirements.

Our ultimate goal is to assist you in preventing small problems from becoming more complex, long-term and expensive problems. For example, a small cavity detected early during a routine check-up is much easier and cheaper to fix than a large cavity needing urgent after-hours care or treatment during a short emergency time slot. Teeth with large cavities also need more complex treatments such as root canal therapy and/or crowns. Tooth extractions can be the immediate cheaper alternative to restoring with large cavities but leave you with gaps between your teeth, long-term disruptions to your bite, food impaction, and accelerated wear to the remaining teeth. These problems become more costly to fix later, not to mention the immediate loss of self-esteem and confidence in your smile.

Our aim is thus to work in partnership with you, in “creating healthy, happy smiles”.
