General Dentistry in Highgate Hill, QLD

At Be Well Dental, we are honoured to provide comprehensive dentistry to our Brisbane community and their families.

patient in dental chair during general dentistry in highgate hillWhile a proper diet and exercise are important, healthy teeth and gums are the foundation to overall good health. When you have an infection in your gums or teeth, it can impact other systems in your body. For example, by diagnosing and treating dental problems early, we can help reduce the potential risks of developing diabetes, cardiovascular disease and stroke in later years.

Likewise, some systemic conditions may first become apparent in the mouth because they manifest as mouth lesions or ulcers. Early detection during routine dental examinations can help increase the prognosis of treatment and your general health.

Dr Will and Dr Bao adopt a holistic approach to ensure that your whole health is considered. Over the years, they have helped many patients experience excellent oral health through preventative and general dentistry.

During your first meeting with your general dentist, we go over all functions and aspects of your smile. We consider your bite, your jaw joints' alignment, and look for signs of oral cancer or developing oral health conditions. Our holistic approach to dentistry includes comprehensive treatment for cavities, gum disease, TMJ and bruxism and missing teeth.

Our mindful, holistic approach allows patients who are anxious to feel more at ease when visiting us. We have created a nurturing and healing environment where we focus on establishing positive connections with our patients and offer patient education and guidance.  

We Offer the Comfort and Dental Treatments You Want

Throughout your dental visit with us, we consider the impact healthy or unhealthy teeth and gums have on your overall wellness and health. 

Our Brisbane dental practice combines modern dental technology and experience with deep care for your emotional and spiritual wellness. By looking at your health as a system of networks that are profoundly influenced by each other, we take a full-body approach to dentistry so you can enjoy priceless oral health.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental fear and anxiety are common emotions, but there are ways we can help you manage it. At Be Well Dental, we appreciate that even seasoned dental veterans can feel a twinge of nervousness as patients at the dental office.

Like with many situations in life, our responses are either reactive or proactive. Reactive responses are based on past experiences, while proactive responses allow us to set up a situation before it becomes the stage of ongoing dental anxiety.

We Help Create a Warm and Welcoming Dental Environment

For many of us, fear of the unknown can often be worse than what we do know. At Be Well Dental, we believe in educating and talking to our patients prior to any dental treatment, so they can anticipate and prepare for each step of the process.

Additionally, patients have come to appreciate and expect our holistic and healing vibe each time they step foot through our doors.

Taking proactive steps further, many dental fears can stem from painful and abrupt dental emergencies. Dr Bao Nguyen and Dr William Huynh practice preventive dental care to help patients sidestep potentially scary and uncomfortable oral health scenarios.

While we can't prevent all dental emergencies, we can spot many small ones in development and heal them while they are small and painless. Through this practice, we can remove many reactive situations and set up healthy and happy dental visits. 

You Are in Charge of Your Dental Visit

Our dental practice believes in practising mindfulness throughout our day to day lives, including when it comes to our health. 

Through mindfulness, we can be aware of each moment, and recognise any feelings of stress, discomfort, and anxiety as they occur. Instead of avoiding such feelings, we can explore them and give them their name.

There is nothing wrong with being anxious, this emotion has served our race well over the centuries, and it is still a valuable emotion. Every day our mind analyzes millions of subtle clues and contexts, and often when we feel goosebumps and a gut feeling that something is off, it's a valid response to act on that.  

Talk With Your Dental Team if You Are Anxious

We are here to work with you, and there's no shame in letting us know if you need extra care. 

You've heard that saying 'The only guarantees in life are death and taxes.' Well, somewhere in between death and taxes is the reflection of your smile, and this reflection can say a lot about you.

How you care for your teeth and gums can indicate a thoughtful and intentional person. The way you smile carries your kindness and compassion. A fresh breath can convey someone perceptive and aware enough to make their space a little more pleasant for those around them.

Caring for your smile should be a constant, but too many people neglect their oral health and dental visits because of financial constraints. 

At Be Well Dental, we don't believe in hidden fees or surprises. We aim to work with our patients and their budgets by accepting all health funds. 

If You Are Unsure, Ask Us

Due to the nature of our services, it is not possible to give an accurate quote for treatment prior to seeing you. In some cases, we can give you fee estimates over the phone, but they will only be a rough guide and may change once our dentists have assessed your specific situation.

The cost of a new patient assessment is $65. A limited assessment for a particular concern is $46. If dental radiographs are required, they are $46 each. Intraoral photography, which allows us to record and share with you exactly what is going on, is included in every appointment.

We have a passion for helping as many patients as possible and providing as many answers as possible. 

We Are Here for You

If you need a dental cleans and exam or are curious about a cosmetic dental treatment, we invite you to call us at (07) 3846-2002.

General Dentistry Technology

Electric Handpieces

While many patients are unfazed by traditional dental tools, some find the experience uncomfortable. Electric handpieces allow Dr Will and Dr Bao to create a more gentle and peaceful visit since they create fewer vibrations and noise. Patients sensitive to movement and sound can feel relieved knowing that their dental procedure will be relatively silent without the high-pitched whirring of older tools.

Newer electric handpieces are more powerful, which keeps dental appointments shorter and more efficient.

Television in Rooms

Our Highgate Hill patients can allow themselves to feel comfortable and at home each time they visit us. We offer TVs within each treatment room so our patients can settle in and catch up on their favourite shows or discover new ones while we treat their dental health. 

At Be Well Dental, we want each patient to know that their health, comfort, and happiness are important. Each part of their visit is designed with their relaxation in mind, from the moment you step through our doors. 

Intraoral Digital Scanner

At Be Well Dental, we leverage cutting-edge intraoral scanner technology to enhance the precision and comfort of your dental treatments. Our intraoral scanner creates highly accurate 3-D digital impressions of your teeth and gums, replacing the need for messy traditional moulds. 
 
This advanced technology allows for quicker and more precise diagnosis, treatment planning, and the creation of dental restorations like crowns, bridges, and aligners. With real-time visualisation, our dentists can monitor and detect issues early and provide more effective treatments. Patients benefit from shorter appointments and a more comfortable, (a mostly) gag-free experience. 
 
Trust Be Well Dental to deliver state-of-the-art care with our innovative intraoral scanning technology, ensuring optimal outcomes and a seamless dental experience.
