"A dentist should follow a Holistic approach to dental health. This means we take a person's overall health and well-being into consideration in whatever we do."

Tom Nyerges B.D.S.

Each dental practice has its own character, so we would like to introduce you to our philosophy.

Firstly, it is important to know that we provide the full range of services one expects from a "regular" dental practice. However, we approach some aspects of dentistry slightly differently, and also provide some specialist services.

We are a small and relatively intimate dental practice, and this allows us to concentrate on personal service and giving our patients the time, understanding and personal care that good healthcare really requires.

We appreciate people's concern for their health and therfore we maintain high standards in all aspects of our services, including cleanliness, sterilisation, materials and technology. Our staff are very experienced and very well trained, and we try our best to provide a standard of care and manner of service that we ourselves would want to receive.

We are totally committed to a "Preventive" approach to dental health.
The simple truth is that most dental problems can be prevented, especially the most common problems. The key to prevention is "knowledge", and this is why we place a lot of emphasis on educating our patients. If you can aquire, understand and apply the knowledge to maintain good dental health and prevent problems, then YOU can be in control of your dental health and consequently will need very minimal help from professionals, and that has to be good news! Giving people knowledge and skills to help themselves is one of the most important and valuable things we can do to help people.

Of course, where dental problems have already occured it is our responsibility to provide solutions and treatment in a gentle and effective manner.

At the Luton Dental Practice we also follow a "Holistic" approach to dental care. We believe that some common dental problems and some common dental procedures may adversly affect the general health of a person, to a greater or lesser degree. This should definitely be taken into consideration by a dentist. Consequently, we view, and do, some things a little differently to most dentists.
