Foot Health Information

Imagine yourself relaxing in aromatherapy while some other heavenly-scented eye mask lets you rest your tired eyes. Soothing music fills your eardrums as you drift away to some paradise in your thoughts. On your side are velvety pillows matched with this equally soft and smooth blanket. What’s more somebody is giving you a nice foot massage. And then you heard that drilling sound while your mouth is wide open. You quickly forgot that you’re undergoing dental treatment at the moment.

That is the beauty of spa dentistry or dental spa. Much care is given in providing this relaxing and calming atmosphere inside the dental clinic so that the patients will forget about the nerves that always go haywire at the sight of “dental appointment”.

These days, you would look forward to these appointments because of the modern perks that are available the minute you step into the dental office. The interior is warm and beautiful, pipe-in music is relaxing, the room is filled with nice scents, and every staff in the office is smiling. In the clinic, there is no room for anxiety of any kind.

This is nowhere close to that old setup where people line up at the receiving area waiting for their turn as they struggle to keep themselves calm. In no time, it’ll be the turn of this next guy and nobody can imagine what horror he is picturing in his mind as he sits on that dreaded chair with the big spotlight on his face.

Spa dentistry is innovative and creative. It’s main objective is to provide the comforts of a spa in a dental clinic setup so that patients will want to come back again and again for teeth maintenance. The concept rides on the fact that everybody loves to get some pampering every now and then. Except for those who are skeptics, really busy, and really pessimistic people, a dental spa is a sigh of relief.

The amenities included vary from office to office. Here are the more common services offered in the dental spa menu:

- Relaxing Aromatherapy

- Zen dental chair that massages

- Headphones with choice of music

- Warm blankets and towels

- Warm and scented pillows

- Heated and scented eye masks or face cloth

- Beverages with free refills

- Laughing gas or nitrous oxide

- Latest movies

- Foot massage mats

- Milkshakes

- Scented candles

- Lip balm with various flavors

Other dental offices go all the way and provide concierge services too, water fountains, fresh homemade cookies, facial treatments, or high-tech virtual realty glasses for simulated games or scenarios.

Looking at the list of amenities, owners of dental clinics reading this may be prompted to get discouraged because of the costs. Truth is, it doesn’t cost much but it will require a lot of creativity and cooperation from the dental staff. Everyone in the clinic must work together to make the patients’ visits pleasurable and relaxing.

The trick is in knowing the exact profile of the customers. This will help you design amenities or services that will make them feel more relaxed whenever they go to the clinic for appointments.

Setting foot inside a dental clinic is going to be an experience one would like to savour. In fact the whole experience will definitely make you look forward to another visit. Concept of a Dental Spa may be a novel one but is definitely going to catch the fancy of those who want to be treated royally.

Chandigarh has got North India’s first Dental Spa, TOOTHPIK in Sector 44. Apart from providing regular dental services to its clients, this new clinic will provide services like Aromatherapy, foot and hand massage, music of choice and even eye masks to make clients fully comfortable. Idea behind the whole exercises is to offer unforgettable atmosphere where client could relax and actually enjoy the treatment. Dental Spa will even be having special pre bridal package for young brides who are looking for a beautiful smile on their marriage.

The venture is a brain child of young, dynamic and innovative dentist Dr. Mehak Jain. After making her name in the field of general and cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Mehak Jain is now all set to introduce this novel idea in her home town.

Dental Spa is a concept adopted in few advanced countries, but is totally new for India, particular for Chandigarh, says Dr. Mehak.  The whole idea is to reduce the dental anxiety which often overpowers most of persons before visiting dental clinic. People are really scared to visit a dentist but TOOTHPIK is going to change all this, she quipped. Anxiety is one of the major reasons that people avoid visiting dentist and often aggravate even simple problems. But once this aspect is taken care of, they will look forward to visiting dental clinic, she further says.

To make dentist visiting a wholesome experience TOOTHPIK has introduced goodie bags for children.  In fact a fully dedicated section for children, accompanying parents, has been created.

Apart from that, clinic will be monitoring oral health of Children right from the first tooth. This will allow children to grow up with healthy and beautiful teeth.

Now if you want to have scent of lavender while getting your teeth scaled and want personal masseur to massage your feet while getting root canal treatment, TOOTHPIK is the place to be in.
