Ginal helped me with a root canal. Generally I am terrified of all dental work. I was quite put to ease. I really am very happy with the work done. Today I feel no pain, no discomfort. Work has been done perfectly. There has been a good follow up since. All around I am very happy. Thank you very much!
What is a digital crown?
Today I just had Ginal do my second crown and I have asked her to explain to me how it’s done because it has been such an amazing process. I was concerned about coming in after hearing other people having crowns done I think in the old fashioned way. So after the first one being painless, I was most intrigued so I asked her how she did it this time. And it’s been amazing. I’m just blown away with how easy it’s been. The only thing that hurts is your pocket! But no, I would like to recommend this way if possible for anyone. And certainly to my friends, I have mentioned it.
What is this way, Yvonne?
This modern way, the digital crown. Yes. Yes. So different and so much easier. No pain, no pain at all.
I just want to give a big shoutout to Ginal who I think is just the best dentist ever. I’ve been coming to her for about three and a half years now. I just find her totally professional, absolutely the best and the team that she has around her as well.
One of the cool things now is less sensitivity after treatment…
The best experience with my teeth… made the whole experience absolutely lovely….really good dentist to do some good work on you.
Hi I’m Jack, I’ve seen Ginal today for the first filling. Great experience – I was a little bit nervous being the first time but everything went perfectly well. Nice and surprised with how well it went.
She did an amazing job, I came in with an emergency root canal which was hurting really bad I’m happy I got an appointment with Ginal, she did an amazing job I had no pain afterwards.
Ginal is genuinely honest and caring, she listens carefully to my questions and concerns and always put me at ease with her kind manner – her recommendations are thorough and based on careful assessment and diagnosis.
I chose Ginal to be my dentist because I knew she was is really passionate about dentistry and is always learning more. She is very efficient and good at explaining and has my best interest at heart.
I’ve been a patient of Ginal’s for the last 12 years. I used to hate going to the dentist, now I love it. She is good fun, very efficient, very thorough and look my teeth are beautiful.
My own smile journey started with a typical front tooth fracture at the primary school playground. As the fractured piece shattered to the ground so did my confidence. During my teens I started clenching my jaw and was unable to bite into apples or enjoy chewy mints. Nightguards provided only slight relief. Most of my early adult life I suffered headaches and later developed ringing in the ears. The root cause in my particular case was not easy to identify until I went to study occlusion in much greater detail at ‘Spear Education’ and the ‘Kois Center’ for advanced dental education.
I experienced considerable relief while in a diagnostic Kois deprogrammer followed by equilibration. But to prevent further tooth wear in my case, the way my teeth fitted together needed to be altered. My treatment options were either to do nothing and endure more damage OR change to a therapeutic bite with either a full mouth of crowns OR orthodontics. I chose ‘clear aligner therapy’ using Invisalign® for a holistic outcome.
Hindsight can be a gift to learn from our experience to then help others. A thorough risk assessment protocol provides an early diagnosis with minimalistic solutions to help prevent tooth wear and irreversible jaw joint damage later on in life. My own smile journey has led me to this passion and determination to help screen, prevent and treat your underlying smile and bite issues.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you along your smile journey.
