Aesthetic Dentistry
Creating safer, healthy, beautiful smiles. Dental Wellness aims to safely create the smiles you have always wanted that reflect your inner health and beauty. We aim to limit the metals in your mouth. It is possible to make crowns without any metals and if you have missing teeth we are able to restore these gaps with metal free bridges. Your smile will light up the room when restored with either porcelain or composite resin veneers. Dental wellness aims to achieve maximum aesthetics with minimum damage to your precious natural tooth structure.

Holistic
At Dental Wellness we accept that the health of your mouth can have an effect on your overall wellbeing. We strive to work with you as an individual, taking your previous dental experience and detailed medical and lifestyle history into account to create your safer, healthy, beautiful smile.
Dental wellness Dentists are highly aware of potential exposure to mercury when removing one of your mercury silver fillings. Strict protocols are used to limit exposure by you, the dentist and the assistant. We aim to use the safest alternative materials, such as composite resin (LINK TO ADMIRA) or porcelain.
Nutrition
It is important that your nutritional status is established prior to any amalgam removal. Your saliva and body pH and diet need to be optimised prior to this undertaking. Dental wellness works with referring practitioners in nutritional medicine, naturopathy, homeopathy and many more integrated health services, practitioners to ensure that all risks are minimised.
Xylitol
Dental Wellness uses a preventative program with an integration of the use of xylitol products to:
- Boost saliva flow
- Improve oral saliva pH
- Reduce stickiness to plaque
- Inhibit the bacteria that causes tooth decay
Implants
Dental implants have been successfully replacing missing teeth for over 45 years. Technology and techniques have advanced so it is now possible to restore that gap without having to be destructive to the adjacent teeth. Traditionally the material for the implant is a pure titanium that acts like a new false root to support a laboratory made crown or denture. Here is a link to more information on dental implants. Before considering implants it is important that your dental health is strong and any level of gum disease, infection and potential toxicity are addressed first. In recent times there has been a 100% ceramic implant system from Europe known as Z-System. These implants consist of 100% zirconia dioxide, a ceramic material. Studies have shown good bone integration in comparison with titanium. Dental Wellness is able to assess your case and give you the best solution for the long term.
White for life program
Whiter teeth project health and wellness. Dental Wellness has a white for life program that works to maintain your smile for life. White for life. Laserbrite TM uses a Xenon Halogen cold light source to activate a whitening agent that is carefully placed on your teeth away from your gums. If you have the laserbrite procedure and then return every 6 months for a checkup and preventative hygiene visit Dental Wellness will give a complimentary laserbrite boost every 2 years for life.
Water
Good hydration is an essential component required to achieve optimum health and wellness. Many medications prescribed have the potential to cause a dry mouth and it is important that the water you drink is optimal. A pure natural source direct from Mother Nature is ideal, this is often hard to find. Dental wellness recommends:

Headaches/Migraines
Dental Wellness has great success in treating chronic headaches, migraines and neck pain. Nutritional advice combined with the use of different forms of mouthguards reduces or removes the dental stresses. Sometimes a simple bite adjustment or addition onto certain teeth can give quick relief. Read more…
Children’s Dentistry
An oral health therapist looks after all of your school aged children with a holistic philosophy. Preventive programs are encouraged as well as nutritional counselling. Only the safest materials are used. Xylitol products reduce the risk of tooth decay. Your child’s jaw position and breathing patterns will also be assessed as part of our pre-orthodontic assessment. Early intervention is encouraged and referral to like minded orthodontists.
Snoring/Sleep Apnoea
If you or your partner snore, there is a high chance that they may also be suffering from sleep apnoea. Snoring occurs when your tongue falls back in deeper sleep reducing the airway space leading to vibrations in the throat. Sleep Apnoea occurs when the airway is intermittently blocked reducing oxygen intake and literally causing the body to recurrently hold its breath. If left untreated can lead to high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, day time sleepiness and depression to name a few. Dental Wellness arranges sleep studies with your GP. If appropriate it can construct oral appliances that will help. Read more…
