your Mackay dentist at the heart of self-care
Being self-loving is a buzzword of the 21st century. You will find the phrase everywhere, especially when it comes to alternative therapies and beauty regimes. Although yoga, green smoothies and going for a facial are positive steps in self-care, there is also ground level body work that should be done as a matter of routine that creates lifelong health, and therefore inherently self-loving. With this introduction, you may not automatically think of the dentist in Mackay. However, we at Northern Beaches Dental would very much like to be a part of your self-care mantra, and here’s why:

Happy mouth, happy life
One of the leading causes of tooth loss is gum disease. Gum disease is completely preventable and starts with good oral hygiene. Brushing and flossing twice a day is a fundamental self-care routine. For this reason, we actively encourage you to visit us every 6 months for a polish and scale. This removes plaque and bacteria build-up that causes inflammation of the gums and possible disease. If you suffer any bleeding when brushing or flossing, please book an appointment to see us as soon as you can.
For young children, we like to see them as soon as their first tooth appears. From there we can monitor and take care of your child’s oral health, helping them firstly feel trusting of their dentist in Mackay and later educating them on correct brushing techniques.
Keeping up with the latest advancements
As well as a warm and friendly team and comfortable, modern environment at Northern Beaches Dental, we also ensure we are up to date with all the latest dental innovations. This includes many cosmetic options to provide services that can shape and restore your smile if you have cosmetic concerns. We also offer full tooth restoration if you have lost one or more, with dental implants.
We are not just focused on teeth, we also offer sleep apnoea solutions through to dietary advice, providing a holistic approach to your health.
Although dental treatment may not be considered a treat it should be the foundation to your oral self-care. Visit us to find out more about our services and how we can support your ongoing good health.
