The dangers of DIY dental

21/12/2020

Over the past few years, we’ve seen a dangerous trend that’s become particularly popular with young adults and teenagers. It’s called dental DIY, and ranges from consumer teeth whitening and mouthguards products right through to home orthodontic and teeth shaping treatments. Some may see these DIY treatments marketed by unqualified influencers and celebrities

I highly recommend this very professional dentist practice. The staff are fabulous! Empathetic with acute attention to detail. Constantly explaining the procedure being undertaken which is very reassuring and calming. Do not hesitate to make an appointment.

Our family have been patients of Whites Dental Care for almost 20 years now. Peter, Cass and the team have all been brilliant. Always so welcoming and professional. The care we have received has been second to none and the surgery is modern, spotless and the equipment state of the art.

The dentist place was very welcoming. I was able to get an appointment on a busy schedule. They made sure the surgery was smooth. Pam the receptionist was very kind and polite and made sure the paperwork was smooth. Dr. Peter Marinovic and Jasmine did an excellent job on my wisdom teeth treatment very effectively and explained in detail of every step of the process of my operation. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY

I highly recommend it. Very professional and skilled ,top to bottom. I have lots of anxiety about going to the dentist. After this visit, I became more confident. Dr. Peter and the team at Whites Dental were amazing. They made me feel comfortable, and I believe the treatment plan is actionable and has my best interest in mind.

I highly recommend this dentist they are top quality and have the best service. I was going for many years and for a while decided to try others but then I noticed how good Whites is in comparison and came back. Dr Peter did an implant and he did a great job of it and the price was great. Overall over the years I have found this dentist to be of the highest quality in any of the work they have done, they don’t keep you waiting and consistently offer excellent customer service. Everyone is genuinely caring and work as a great team. I’m not going to try another dentist again this practice is the best and Dr Peter has the best hair! : )

Excellent service from start to finish. Walked in for a dental check up and clean in the morning - whilst the sound of dental appliances working away at my teeth did unnerve me at first, I quickly felt at ease under the steady hands of the team there. Not only this, I was offered a filling on the same day, which was done quickly and with minimal pain. Clear explanation of procedures also helped with any unease. Would definitely recommend.

After several years of not paying enough attention to my dental health, the team at Whites Dental have helped overcome my dental anxiety and I now have a great dental health plan that is going to ensure I have healthy teeth for many years to come. Dentist Dr. Peter has explained my treatment clearly and simply, and the rest of the team (hygienists, nurses and reception staff) are all warm, friendly, and sympathetic. I can definitely recommend Whites to anyone looking for a quality dentist.

Having been terrified of the dentist since I was very young - I have just had one of the most relaxing visits to Whites Dental Care (although Dr Peter probably wouldn't agree) totally put me at ease

Recommend against going to this place. The staff are triple vaxxed and know it's endangering patients. I became very ill after going here. Very selfish, borderline criminal doing that to their own patients. Also they are still giving out fluoride with9ut informed consent, they are fully aware of that it is toxic waste. They are doing fillings without informed consent. I have felt garbage for over 2 years, these people are sick

Dr Anthony is the best! Took all four of my wisdom teeth out at the same time, with no bruising :)

I cannot overstate how impressed I am with these guys. Consummate professionals - all of them. Due to my own chronic (and willful) neglect over the years I've needed to have several painful/decaying back teeth removed. Dr Peter Marinovic has near magical abilities undertaking this task. I lay in the chair, bracing for the impeding ordeal, he fiddles around a bit in my mouth - I'm now psychologically prepared - and then he says "okay" - I assume that means get ready for what's to come - he just stands there, and then says "okay - it's done". I don't believe him until he points to the removed tooth in the tray. This man has God-level skills.

I can’t say to be happy while going to the dentist… they have to remove one of my teeth and so you can imagine how much I could be happy. However I need to say that the experience was very very very positive. They have explained me all, they allowed me to “take my time”, they were helpful, kind and brilliant. Surely high recommended!

My first visit to whites dental for a well needed clean was fantastic.I am always really nervous to visit the dentist but the team were great.They made me feel really comfortable.Both Rita and Fereba were amazing. They were very thorough and took their time to look after me. They made sure I was educated on how to properly look after my teeth at home and explained the importance of having good oral hygiene.My fear of visiting the dentist was definitely put at ease and I will definitely be returning in the future

Short waiting times, all the info you need, and absolutely great value for a professional service.I hope the practice stays open for many more years!!!

Dr Peter Marinovic and the whole team are incredibly lovely. I strongly recommend their services.Peter clearly explained his recommendations and talked through what was doing during the process. He only recommended what was needed at that time and did not up-sell or do unnecessary work. He took great care to ensure my comfort during the process and afterwards.The whole process was smooth and straightforward, exactly what you want in a dentist appointment.

I cannot rave about Whites Dental enough. It goes beyond the expertise of Peter - from the moment you walk in you are given the very best level of care from all the gorgeous staff. They really do go above and beyond. I will be recommending this practice to all my family and friends.

Excellent and caring staff, genuinely the nicest dentist practice I have been too. I was treated with respect and kindness when I explained I was nervous since it had been a while since my last visit. Definitely will keep coming back and highly recommend to anyone a little anxious.

My partner and I recently moved to the area and needed to find a new dentist. We were extremely happy with our previous dentist/orthodontist so we imagined it would be quite hard find someone that we were as happy with. We are fortunate to have found the team at Whites Dental Care. From the moment you enter the reception space you are greeted with a friendly welcome, and the service provided by the practitioners is exceptional. Would gladly recommend!

If you are looking for a dentist that has amazing customer service and care,Look no further.I called a few dentists about a month ago as my Husband wisdom teeth was hurting and we knew he would need to take it out due to a previous X-ray,I spoke to Natasha on the phone, and every question was answered even before I could think of them, I had previously called around 6 dental places before finding this place. I noticed a common theme with dental offices where everything is rushed and they can only do so much, however Natasha, although working from home during the current Covid situation, answered all my questions that made my confident to book for my husband.My husband is generally scared of all doctor/dental appointments due to previous event when he was younger, however Natasha made me feel confident that we had found the right place, we ended up booking a consultation for the next day.Upon arrival we were greeted by the receptionist Pam and Radhika, who by far are the best receptionist I’ve ever had in any establishment. We also met Dr. PeterWho took very good care of us and explained all our options,My husband was very surprised with the level of care and customer service they had at every point. The best part is, the price they had given was also very competitive, (cheaper that a lot of the places i had initially calledWe booked in the appointment with the IV sedation aswell for both lower wisdom teeth removalOn the day (today)Amar was very anxious however Emma, (IV Sedation Nurse) took great care of him and made him feel very relaxed until he knocked out, she was really sweet and have so much care.I came back to pick him up and it was a lot shorter than expected, after an hour of dropping him off both teeth were already removed and he was finished with the operation and had to wait until the 30minutes passed,On the way home, My husband while still on the drugs was so happy about the operation that he wanted to come back and do it again(he was upset because he doesn’t have more wisdom teeth to remove)This place is honestly a hidden Gem, definitely going to be coming back here and recommending this place to everyone.
