The Four Cornerstones
of SlowDentistry®

1. Anaesthesia

Fully effective anaesthetic of the area of the mouth to be treated before starting treatment (if required).

2. Rubber Dam

Use of rubber dam for root canal treatments and for some fillings, where the tooth needs to be isolated to prevent cross contamination. Placing the rubber dam will also make it comfortable for the patient during treatment.

3. Room Disinfection

We will ensure a sufficient time is booked for each patient, in order to fully disinfect the dental clinic in between patients. We follow Ministry of Health guidelines.

4. Informed Consent

We will ensure you have a fully informed, signed, and understood patient consent form for each treatment. We will explain the risks and benefits of each treatment carefully to you before we proceed.
