Welcome to Albany Dental

We understand that choosing a new dentist and dental healthcare team can be a challenge. Instead of lecturing you about teeth, we listen to you and help you understand your choices. We give you enough information to make your own decisions about what you want from us, for your mouth and for yourself.

So, your first choice is to decide if we are the dental health care team for you.

We are a small general dental practice. Whilst we cannot be everything to all people, we believe our purpose is to help you be as healthy as you can and enhance the quality of your life. We believe in preventing pain, disease and dysfunction.

GET WELL and STAY WELL. It’s a big picture, whole person, long term approach.

Our approach is based on a whole person view. To maintain the ideal structural alignment of the body, the biomechanics of the head, neck and craniomandibular system must be considered. There is a correlation between the position of the upper jaw, lower jaw, bite plane and overall body posture. It is well established that jaw posture affects head posture which in turn affects overall body posture.

This philosophy is then applied to all patients particularly those requiring or requesting reconstructive dentistry, cosmetic dentistry (smile makeovers), orthodontic treatment and patients with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJ), head and neck pain. Our motto is “look good” and “feel good”.

Dentists have a unique position in healthcare because we deal with nutrition and breathing everyday. Therefore we are able to help you with general wellness not just dental health.

To achieve this, we base your visits on a program of preventive care, and aim to get you away from discomfort and damage of tooth decay and gum disease. We call this Smilecare.

If therapeutic treatment is required, minimum intervention techniques and longlasting bonded cosmetic materials are used to improve function and appearance. This is what we call being a Smiledentist.
Our staff take pride in our trustworthy reputation and word of mouth recommendations from the many people we have been caring for over the last 16 years.

When we have to provide dental treatment, we want it done as well as today’s technology can achieve. We don’t want you to have any problems so we don’t recommend methods or materials that are substandard, and we wont advise you to take short-term solutions. We want you to have dentistry that looks great, feels good and lasts a long time.

We don’t use amalgam. We can restore teeth immediately with biocompatible,
long-lasting ceramic fillings made with our Cerec milling machine. We also utilize an internationally recognized Ceramists for our cosmetic dental implants, crowns and veneers.

Because we are focused on health maintenance, we have an experienced Dental Hygienist to manage our world-class smilecare program.

We are proud to stand by the quality of our service, pervading our choice of the best in staff, materials, equipment, dental laboratories and standards of procedures.
