At Soul Dental, we have a range of dentistry services for you and your family. Our experienced dentists are well-trained in administering these treatments.

Dental Services We Provide The Gold Coast
The health of your mouth and teeth is much more important than just what they look like alone. Functional and pain-free teeth and gums allow you to enjoy all the foods you love and to smile with confidence. Here at Soul Dental, we treat minor ailments or cosmetic imperfections, right up to extensive dental work. Regardless of your need to visit, we have the skills and equipment necessary to help with any concern.
The ongoing condition of your teeth and gums is a collaborative effort on both your part and ours. We’ve got the services and education side of things covered, you need to ensure you are making time to see your dentist and to follow up on any recommendations they make when visiting.
Here are some of the services we can provide:
Services We Offer At Dentist Gold Coast
This service is specialised for a half yearly or yearly check up, where we will maximise preventative dental care. With our comprehensive examination and clean, your Dentist Gold Coast team can also provide you with dental insights so you know how to take care of your teeth!
Veneers are used to refresh discoloured, chipped, irregularly shaped and uneven teeth so your smile looks more evened out. It’s a thin piece of porcelain that is bonded to the front of your natural teeth, using the very best technology to transform how you smile.
If there is a tooth bothering you, we can gently remove them and offer tooth replacement options. If you require specialised care, we can refer you to our Maxillofacial colleagues, who would be more than happy to help.
Sometimes during the night, you’ll grind or clench your teeth while sleeping. This can lead to dental problems later on, as your teeth may crack, reduce in height and weaken. We can customise an occlusal splint for you, to prevent this!
There are over the counter teeth whitening treatments but they aren’t as effective or reliable as the ones we offer. Teeth whitening treatments from our Dentist Gold Coast team will help you get the best white smile in the safest and fastest way.
Fissure sealants are one of the ways we keep your teeth from decaying. We do this through covering your back teeth with a resin coating, stopping food and bacteria from getting into the tiny crevices in your teeth!
Fillings are how tooth decay and cavities get treated. While we take every precaution and measure to not get to this point, sometimes it is necessary to stop the breaking down and losing of your teeth.
In the event that a tooth becomes too damaged that it can’t support a filling, we can restore it with a crown. Talk to us more about this service, as it depends on the person and the kind of dental care required.
Tooth x-rays are a noninvasive, low radiation way of taking an image for a 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.
Going to our Dentist Gold Coast practice for the first time (maybe even the fifth time!) can be scary for kids. We love working with kids and aim to make them feel as comfortable as possible, while making their experience a fun one!
Whether it be for adults or for kids, we offer custom made mouthguards for those high contact sports like touch footy and rugby. That way you can continue playing your favourite sports without worrying about your teeth!
If your tooth has been severely cracked or chipped, you may need to use our root canal therapy procedure. Note that this procedure is only for severely compromised teeth and we recommend contacting our team if you think this is the case.
Most people have grown up with braces, but nowadays, the alternative is much simpler with invisible aligners. At Soul Dental, we have a range of these, including Invisalign®. To see if Invisalign® and clear aligners are right for you, download our guide.
This treatment involves the deep cleaning of your gums, which can remove bacteria, tartar, debris and toxins that have built up over time. If severe gum disease occurs, periodontal treatment can help delay gum shrinking, teeth mobility and tooth loss.

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!
