Technology and Technique at Dental Clinic in Mackay

At our dentist Mackay we have invested heavily in our equipment and keeping up to date with the latest techniques, to help give you the best treatment available at any given time. Advances in dental science and technology mean we have equipment designed to allow for faster diagnosis and more comfortable treatments. We regularly attend seminars and professional training to stay abreast of the latest developments in dentistry.

For example we use intraoral cameras to be able to produce detailed digital pictures of the inside of your mouth. These are displayed immediately and allow us to show you the areas that we have highlighted as problem regions. Keeping you informed all the time is an important part of our personal treatment process. Our digital X-ray machines produce clearer pictures than a normal X-ray, and allow us to recognise things like the early onset of tooth decay so we can then introduce treatment in a timely manner.

Taking anxiety out of equation

Our dentist Mackay understands that you may suffer from nervousness or anxiety about visiting a dentist. Rest assured, all our staff are trained to make your visit as stress free as possible and our equipment helps by allowing us to make a diagnosis quicker and administer the relevant treatment faster. Anxiety is usually born from a previous experience or minimal understanding of what a condition is and lack of detail about the proposed treatment. Our equipment allows us to explain and show you exactly what your condition is and how we propose to treat you, and this helps to alleviate tension and doubt. We also spend time getting to know you as we build a relationship and understanding of who you are and your trepidations.  We believe open, two-way communication is key.

Helping you to help your children

Our dentist Mackay has a system of preventive dentistry which starts with your children. We believe that it is a wonderful gift to be able to give your children lasting dental health. We suggest that you bring your children from as old as one year with you on some of your dental visits. This will give your children the opportunity to experience the environment of our surgery and friendliness of our staff. We will also be able to start building that all-important relationship which will grow as they mature. When the time comes for their first examination we will have the opportunity to identify any problems existing or that may manifest later. We can educate them as to the correct dental cleaning and maintenance procedures and impress upon them the importance of regular six-monthly visits.

A radiant smile for today’s world

As dentists our priority is to ensure that you have the full function of your teeth, gums and jaw so that you can eat and chew your food properly, which in turn helps your stomach to digest your food. Of course in today’s technological world having a radiant smile is more important than ever and we will work hard to ensure that you can get the smile you’ve always wanted. We believe that by discussion and mutual understanding we can satisfy all your dental aspirations and requirements.

All treatment carries risks. Individual consultation is required with one of our practitioners to ensure that the treatment is right for you.
