Gentle dentists (without drills) in Moonee Ponds will give you a reason to smile!

As you may know, multiple studies in recent years have confirmed a link between oral health and systemic diseases. While that may seem like an obvious statement, it is a point often overlooked by some dentists. The conventional approach to dentistry and other fields of medicine is to focus on disease, especially controlling the symptoms after it develops. The medical field is gradually evolving, with a greater emphasis on treating the underlying cause of disease, or even preventing it. Though the change is gradual in dentistry, holistic practitioners are way ahead of the game.

Health is more than just the absence of disease, and holistic medicine is designed to promote optimal wellness for mind and body. If you experience fear, pain, discomfort, and agitation during your dental visit, that is counterproductive. We treat our patients with the same respect and kindness that we would want for our own family, and we utilise advanced technology to take the pain out of dentistry. One of the greatest innovations in dentistry is the dental laser. The dental laser combines the power of laser energy with air pressure and water spray. The continuous application of water prevents dehydration of the enamel while stimulating water molecules within the tooth. This allows it to cut through tooth material with exacting precision.

The benefits of laser dentistry include:

• Treatment is typically painless, so most patients don’t need local anaesthetic
• Eliminates the vibration, loud sound, and uncomfortable heat that drills create
• Lasers are more precise than a drill, so more healthy tooth structure is preserved
• Faster, more comfortable treatment so that it is possible to combine several procedures in a single visit
• The entire experience less stressful for children and patients with dental anxiety.

Laser dentistry is just one of many advanced dental treatments we offer here at Smile In Style.
