Background to Tooth Dental
Tooth Dental, located just 5 km from Brisbane CBD in Ashgrove has just celebrated its first birthday, with the practice growing from strength to strength and establishing itself well within its locality. Tooth Dental is owned by Dr Lou Waldie, a local dentist who graduated from the University of Queensland. Having practiced in the area for a number of years, Lou decided it was time to branch out and establish her own practice and she hasn’t looked back since then.
The practice has moderate size entrance and reception area with toys for children and mobile charging facilities for modern patient convenience. Take a closer look and you may even notice the Tooth Fairy mail box for the children where the Tooth Fairy occasionally leaves messages, adding to the dental experience of their younger patients.
Lou’s core philosophy is to deliver a warm and inviting family environment, while providing comfort and care for the patient and forming integral part of the local community. With her key value for the practice being to treat each and every patient how you would like your mother to be treated, with a warm caring personal experience. Approaching the practice it is clear that the team at Tooth Dental offer a fun, warm and friendly environment, which helps ease the patients experience and visit to the practice. On the footpath outside the practice there is chalk board with fun teeth related quotes which immediately make you smile. Walking through the door of the Practice you are immediately greeted by the friendly team at Tooth Dental - it is evident they do everything they can to help ease the patients visit to the practice. The practice is themed with warm pastel colours throughout and a high quality finish which immediately reassures visitors they will receive the best treatment and can feel at ease.
