COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION AND CLEAN
We make your regular dental visits to our practice pleasant while maximising your preventative care, including comprehensive examination, scale, polish, fluoride treatment, and x-rays. We will also give you dental insights to keep your teeth clean and strong so you can enjoy all the benefits of a healthy smile.
VENEERS (PORCELAIN AND HYBRIDS)
A veneer is a super-thin piece of porcelain that is bonded to the front of your natural tooth using safe adhesive technology to transform your smile. We use them to refresh the look of discoloured, chipped, irregularly shaped, and uneven teeth.
ORAL SURGERY & TEETH REMOVAL
We can gently remove troublesome teeth and also offer tooth-replacement options. If you require more specialised care, we can refer you to our professional network of specialist Maxillofacial colleagues.
OCCLUSAL SPLINT (NIGHT GUARD)
An occlusal splint is a removable guard that is worn at night time, used to protect your teeth from deterioration and wear of grinding or clenching (bruxism). It can help to prevent your teeth cracking further, reduce in height, and is also very helpful in protecting new veneers. Let us customise one for you and protect your teeth from further damage.
WHITENING
Unlike over-the-counter whitening systems that may be unreliable and not effective over time, our whitening procedure will help you get the brightest white smile you desire in the safest and fastest way possible.
FISSURE SEALANTS
Fissure sealants are an effective and pain free way of protecting your teeth from tooth decay through a resin coating which covers the chewing surfaces of the back adult teeth, forming a hard shield that keeps food and bacteria from getting into the tiny grooves in the teeth.
RESTORATIONS (FILLINGS)
A restoration (filling) is how we treat tooth decay and cavities. By placing a strong white resin material after making sure the teeth are germ free, we aim to stop the further progression of decay and weakening of teeth.
CROWNS AND BRIDGE
In the event of a tooth becoming so damaged and compromised it can’t support a filling, or suffers with cracks, we restore the tooth using a crown. Whether you need to protect a weak tooth, hold a bridge in place or want to make a cosmetic adjustment, we provide a personalised consultation for your needs.
X-RAYS
x-rays are a non-invasive, low-radiation way of taking an image for proper diagnosis of tooth-related issues. We can also use x-rays during routine procedures if there is a dental problem that needs further analysis.
KID’S DENTAL TREATMENT
We love working with kids and have many techniques for making our younger patients feel at ease during their visits. Not only do they feel safe and secure with us, but they also have fun, so their dental visits never become a chore.
INVISIBLE ORTHODONTICS
The alternative to braces has never been clearer with the most advanced clear aligners in the world. Invisalign® is an advanced orthodontics system that straightens teeth and controls tooth movement using clear aligners that will straighten your teeth in as minimal time as possible and best of all won’t affect your everyday life. Get started with InvisalignTM and or our other clear aligners at Soul Dental and enjoy your new improved smile. To see if Invisalign® and clear aligners are right for you, download our guide.
ROOT CANAL THERAPY
After a severe crack or chip in the tooth, advanced decaying of the tooth, or an infection, a root canal procedure may be necessary. Because a root canal treatment is for very compromised teeth, they will require complete restoration, in most cases a crown for protection.
CUSTOM-MADE SPORT MOUTHGUARDS
The way a mouthguard fits, and its construction are what determine how well it protects you. The best mouthguard is one that’s custom made to mould over your teeth. It fits exactly over your teeth snugly to protect you from injury while training for or playing your favourite sports.
PERIODONTAL TREATMENT (DEEP GUM CLEANING TREATMENT)
Periodontal treatment involves deep cleaning (also called scaling and root planing), which is needed to remove bacteria, calculus (tartar), debris and toxin that has collected under the gum line overtime. When severe gum disease occurs, periodontal treatment can help delay the shrinking of gum, teeth mobility, and tooth loss.
Why Is It Important For You To See Your Local Burleigh Heads Dentist?
Visiting your local Burleigh Heads dentist regularly is super important for maintaining optimal dental health! Regular check-ups can help detect potential problems early, like cavities or gum disease, so they can be treated in time.
Additionally, your dentist can remove tartar build-up that regular brushing and flossing at home can’t get rid of, ensuring a thorough clean. They can also provide personalised advice on good oral hygiene practices, tailored specifically to your unique needs and circumstances. By scheduling those regular visits to your Burleigh Heads dentist, you are not only taking care of your teeth, but also prioritising your overall health and well-being. Remember, a healthy smile is an investment in yourself!

Dentist & Owner
Hi, I’m Dr Rita Lai, your local dentist and proud to be able to offer you a range of professional services using the most advanced equipment right here in Varsity Lakes.
Why did I become a dentist? Well, dentistry is in my blood. My uncle is a dentist and I used to go to his office after school. Back then I didn’t know much about what dentistry meant aside from seeing my uncle with his patients, the relationship he had with them, and the chats they had as if they had been friends for years.
I have always loved working with people and being able to help others, so it was seeing the difference my uncle made for adults and children alike that made me think I wanted to be a dentist.
Since then, I’ve earned a degree in Biology and graduated from Griffith University with a Bachelor of Oral Health in Dental Science and a Graduate Diploma of Dentistry and have practiced at a number of highly regarded clinics.
Now I’ve decided to go out on my own, I want to create a space that can make a difference for anyone needing a dentist, a place that provides the best customer service and a place that uses advanced digital technologies, highest quality materials, with meticulous attention to detail.
More importantly, a place that cares about its patients as individuals in everything we do, as I believe people never forget a dentist who gives them a beautiful smile, and also won’t forget how we make them feel.
I strive to be gentle, thorough, and communicate openly to ensure that my patients understand their oral health. With a love of all aspects of general dentistry, I always emphasise the importance of preventative care.
Outside of work, I love taking my dog, named Frankenstein on adventures, enjoy doing Zumba, karate, and watching Netflix. You will usually find me at the local shops enjoying good food, catching up with friends, seeing the newest movies, or all of the above together.
I look forward to meeting you!
