Our Philosophy
The LUMINA approach to dentistry
We believe a dental visit should feel like exhaling.
Comfort first. Clear words, never jargon.
Treatment personalized to you — and only what you need.
Prevention over intervention, always.
Results that look like you, not like dentistry.
Modern technology makes our dentistry precise. Our people make it human. Every plan begins with listening, every recommendation comes with a reason, and no question is ever too small to ask.

Technology
Precision you can feel, comfort you can measure
Every technology in our studios earns its place by making your visit gentler, faster or more accurate.
Our technology
01
3D CBCT Scanning
A quick, low-dose 3D scan shows your teeth, roots, nerves and bone in complete detail — so implants and complex treatments are planned with full information, not guesswork.
02
Digital Impressions
A small handheld scanner captures a precise 3D model of your teeth in minutes — comfortable, gag-free, and more accurate than traditional molds.
03
Intraoral Cameras
A tiny camera shows you your own teeth on screen, magnified. You never have to take our word for it — you can see why we recommend something, or why we recommend nothing at all.
04
Guided Implant Surgery
Your implant position is planned on your 3D scan, then a custom surgical guide transfers that plan to your mouth exactly — for a gentler procedure and faster healing.
05
Digital Smile Design
For cosmetic treatment, we design your new smile digitally and show you the intended result first — on screen, and as a physical trial you can wear.
06
Laser Dentistry
For many soft-tissue procedures, laser treatment means less discomfort, minimal bleeding, and quicker healing — often without a single stitch.
07
Same-Day Crown Technology
Our in-house milling means many crowns are scanned, designed, made and fitted in a single appointment — no temporary crown, no second visit, no weeks of waiting.
Real Transformations
Results that speak quietly for themselves
Drag the slider to compare. Every case is planned around the patient's face, bite and goals.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
For most people, a check-up every six months keeps small problems small. Your dentist will recommend an interval tailored to your oral health — some patients need more frequent visits, others less.
Yes. We hold same-day emergency slots at both clinics every weekday, for existing and new patients alike. Call as early in the day as you can for the best availability.
Very much so — most of our aligner patients are adults. Suitability depends on your bite and gum health rather than your age, and a consultation with a digital scan will give you a clear answer.
Typically three to six months from placement to final crown, most of which is natural healing time. The surgical appointment itself usually takes about an hour.
Yes. For anxious patients and longer procedures we offer sedation options alongside our standard comfort measures. Your dentist will discuss what is appropriate at your consultation.
We provide written estimates before any treatment begins, accept all major payment methods, offer monthly payment plans for larger treatments, and can process eligible insurance claims directly. Our finance coordinator is happy to walk you through the options.
Absolutely. Our nervous patient pathway includes longer appointments, a pre-visit tour, agreed stop signals, and sedation where appropriate. Many of our most loyal patients arrived terrified — you are in good company.
No referral is needed. You can book online or by phone for any consultation, including implant, Invisalign and cosmetic assessments.
