Do I need a dentist's referral?

The answer is simple: No! We welcome everyone – whether you have a regular dentist, haven't visited one in a while, or are seeking dental hygiene or aesthetic treatments for the first time. 

Should you require further dental care, we are connected with a network of dental professionals in Christchurch, Rangiora and Kaiapoi areas. 

Plus, if you're already registered with a dentist, we will coordinate with them to ensure seamless care.

What does dental care mean?

Dental care is to maintain healthy teeth, gums, and other oral structures. It includes daily brushing and flossing, expert check-ups and cleanings, and treatments for cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss. Good dental care is essential for overall health because issues in the mouth affect the body. The ability to eat, speak, and socialise freely depends on it, making it vital to personal well-being. Avoid oral problems and maintain a great quality of life with regular dental hygiene visits.

Testimonials

Brushing too hard

"You wouldn't think going to the dentist would be an amazing experience, but I'm going to tell you otherwise! Lisa is an amazing hygienist, I would highly recommend her to anyone. Very professional and understanding. My job involves public speaking, so I need to feel confident. I would say that I look after my teeth ok, I brush twice a daily, floss a couple of times a week and use mouthwash now and then, but I started noticing that my gums were wearing out and my teeth were going yellow and becoming really sensitive. After my initial consultation with Lisa she explained that the toothbrush I had been using was too hard and I was brushing my teeth too hard which was wearing the gums down and exposing the roots of my teeth and that's why they were sensitive. I was also missing some areas completely and so was getting a lot of plaque. After Lisa giving my teeth a really good clean (which didn't hurt) she recommended the right products for me, and showed me how to brush effectively. I now don't have the sensitivity I used to have and my teeth are the best they have ever been! "

Thomas M, Hanmer Springs

Amazing! 

"I'm so happy with the results of my treatment with Lisa, with 20 years of experience, and it shows. She is very professional, friendly and gentle. She explained everything to me clearly and answered all my questions. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure. My teeth look amazing and my skin feels smoother and younger. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a quality dental and facial aesthetics service."

Pam J, Amberley

I wouldn't see anyone else. 

"I have been seeing Lisa for 5 years and I now recommended her to everyone, I hadn't seen a dentist for many years, as I had a bad experience when I was younger, so I avoided going to the dentist at all costs, but I knew I had problems occurring in my mouth, bleeding swollen gums, hard stuff building up on my teeth that I couldn't brush off and most embarrassingly bad breath. I plucked up the courage and went to see Lisa, she was amazing, explaining what was happening to my mouth, her calming manor put me at ease and she was so gentle but thorough with her treatment. She warned me I could possible lose a couple of teeth as the gum disease was so bad around them, but she managed to save them with the deep cleaning she did. She also advised the best products for me to use to look after my teeth at home. In the 5 years i've been seeing Lisa I haven't needed a filling or had anymore problems and I have a healthy smile I am proud of!
Thank you Lisa,  :-)"

No more fillings!

"Lisa has been my hygienist for 10 years. I  made an appointment with Lisa after a work mate recommended her. I've been seeing a dentist every 6 months since leaving school (about 20 years) but I kept needing fillings very time I went.  My work mate said if you don't want fillings anymore go and see Lisa.  I felt at ease as soon as I met her, she has a calming, caring nature. After a very comprehensive exam, she I identified I had advanced gum disease and required deep cleaning below the gums. It took 4 appointments to clean everything up and then 3 monthly appointments for a year, but I am so happy now, as I don't have fillings anymore and I have a healthy mouth! I even got my teeth whitened, once my gums were healthy which made a big difference.  If you are worried about going to the dentist, then I recommend you see Lisa. I'm so glad I took my work mates advise."

Stephen L, Christchurch

Confidence to smile again. 

"I love going to see Lisa, she gave me back my confidence to smile . She is an amazing hygienist, you can tell she really enjoys her job! I've told all my family, friends and work colleagues to see her. Since seeing her, teeth are the first thing I notice about people now. And when I see a person with bad teeth or smell someone's bad breath, I just feel like saying to them...GO SEE LISA at SMOOCH LOL!"

Flossing daily for the first time in my life

"I now floss daily for the first time in my life. Lisa explained exactly what she was doing during my treatment and how I could continue to take care of my oral health. Her depth of knowledge and attention to detail was so thorough. I was very nervous as this was my first experience seeing a hygienist, and heard stories of how it can hurt. My previous dentist used to clean my teeth, but this was far more comprehensive. I'm so glad I found her to take care of my oral health especially as I have a heart condition. If I had to say anything, I would say... Just go and see Lisa and experience the difference after her treatment, you won't be disappointed  " 


 Shelia M, Kaiapoi


Swift action to be thankful for 

"Lisa has been my hygienist for many years now, I first started seeing her when she had just graduated and started working as a hygienist. Going to see her is like going to see an old friend. Her examinations and treatments are very thorough. On one of my regular appointments, she noticed a white patch at the back of my throat, which she explained to me. She wasted no time in getting me referred to a specialist and treatment was swiftly carried out. It was due to her diligence and swift action that I have to be thankful for."
