Empowering Patients
Building trust is the foundation of any relationship and especially important in health care. Excellent communication is critical to building a strong relationship. I listen carefully to my patients and address their concerns, then personalize each treatment plan according to the patient’s goals and recommended treatment for long-term success. Patient education is a pillar of our mission at Beach Dental Club, providing you with the opportunity to make well-informed decisions about your oral health with confidence. We make an effort to schedule ample, unhurried appointments in which we offer detailed yet digestible information on your case.
Mind-body Connection
While it’s no secret that stress can negatively affect our overall health, many are unaware of its significant impact on oral health. I believe in treating the whole person—recognizing the profound connection between our mental well-being and oral health. Stress can manifest in various ways, such as bruxism, or teeth grinding. Holistic approaches like mindfulness practices, yoga or acupuncture can help manage stress and alleviate teeth grinding.
Stress weakens our immune system’s response, making us more susceptible to infections like gum disease. Chronic stress can exacerbate inflammation in the gums, leading to periodontal issues. Engaging in relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises or spending time in nature, can help boost your immune system and improve gum health.
Stress can disrupt the balance of our autonomic nervous system, leading to reduced saliva production and a dry mouth. Sipping water throughout the day can help combat dry mouth.
Dentistry Game Changers
Imagine a world where dental crowns, bridges and even braces can be custom-made within hours. This vision is now a reality, thanks to 3D printing technology. We utilize 3D printers to create precise and tailored dental prosthetics. By using digital impressions, dentists can design prosthetics that perfectly match the patient’s oral anatomy. This not only reduces production time but also enhances the overall quality and fit of the dental device.
We employ intraoral cameras to capture detailed images of your teeth and gums. These images are displayed on a screen during consultations. This technology allows patients to see precisely what the dentist sees, facilitating informed discussions about treatment options and oral health practices. Technology Trends
Dental clinic technology has evolved dramatically as new processes and techniques have been developed over the years, and this evolution continues to move forward. AI has begun to be leveraged in diagnostics, providing predictive analytics and identifying anomalies that can help dentists deliver more accurate diagnoses and streamlined treatment plans for patients. Using databases of hundreds of thousands of dental case records, AI algorithms can rapidly analyze patterns and anomalies so that dentists can spend less time crunching numbers, allowing more focus on planning the most effective course of treatment.
Recommendation
We highly recommend Invisalign, a series of clear, BPA-free plastic trays that many patients prefer instead of traditional braces. Not only are the aligners virtually invisible, they are removable—so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also more comfortable than traditional braces, with no metal or wires, which usually means you spend less time in your doctor’s office getting adjustments. If you’re self-conscious about your smile, having Invisalign treatment will greatly improve the way you look and feel. When your treatment is complete, you will have the smile you’ve always dreamed of as well as the confidence to show it off!
