Integrating<br />
dentistry<br />
<strong>and</strong> oral<br />
medicine<br />
According to Dr Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian,<br />
preserving the smile <strong>and</strong><br />
maintaining the patient’s existing<br />
teeth just might hold wider<br />
benefits for overall health. In<br />
fact, Dr Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian explains<br />
tooth health has been linked to<br />
cognitive function.<br />
‘We are living longer than ever<br />
before, <strong>and</strong> dental health has<br />
never been so important,’ he<br />
says. ‘Where there is missing<br />
teeth, especially in edentulous<br />
patients, studies show the brain,<br />
which is neuroplastic, can adapt<br />
to feedback from dental implant<br />
integration within the patient’s<br />
neurophysiology.’<br />

smiles in CREMORNE has a new address <strong>and</strong> a<br />

a dental practice should be an environment that breeds creativity <strong>and</strong><br />
encourages the highest st<strong>and</strong>ards of performance in the surgeon, while<br />
also being comfortable <strong>and</strong> relaxing for the patient. ‘It needs to be a place where<br />
the patient can make the best decisions for themselves <strong>and</strong> their future,’ Dr<br />
Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian explains.<br />
He has created exactly this environment in his new, state-of-the art clinic<br />
in Cremorne, Sydney. ‘The new clinic has been designed <strong>and</strong> built for the<br />
convenience of all our patients,’ Dr Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian explains. ‘Considerable time,<br />
planning <strong>and</strong> effort means we can deliver the best treatments, in a relaxing<br />
setting, using the latest diagnostic technology, personalised treatment rooms<br />
<strong>and</strong> an in-house dental laboratory.’<br />
‘The clinic caters to new <strong>and</strong> existing Designer Smile patients, <strong>and</strong> incorporates<br />
specially built accommodation for our overseas clients.’<br />
Dr Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian has extensive experience in dental practice. He performs both<br />
implant <strong>and</strong> reconstructive procedures regularly, but believes the most important<br />
goal of dentistry should be to preserve the patient’s existing anatomy.<br />
‘The longevity of actual teeth bypass immensely the longevity of dental<br />
implants,’ Dr Nalb<strong>and</strong>ian explains. ‘Although I will place implants after careful<br />
assessment of all options, the preservation of biology is of upmost importance<br />
in my practice. In suitable cases, I will opt for procedures that require minimal<br />
