We love nothing more than celebrating Christmas and the end of the year here at Courtney Dental. Last weekend we ate too much, drank too much and had a brilliant time together. Past employees turn up (we've tried but cannot keep Lian away) and Hayley who's still on maternity leave brought her beautiful baby in to say hello. Bernie came dressed ready to party hard. Nicole lost ping pong to Craig twice and had a tantrum. For the first year in a while there wasn't a brawl over the secret Santa gifts, the usual target is the ham supplied by Dave. Rebecca managed to hide it well and take it home with her. Here are a couple of the more internet appropriate photos from our celebrations. Not pictured are the staff that somehow always manage to  hide from the camera. 

Courtney Dental celebrated the Melbourne Cup at the Townsville RSL again this year, the team always has such a fantastic time spending the day together. This year Craig won the in house sweeps, while Jason won 2nd best dressed. 

​Dental x-rays ensure your teeth don’t just look healthy, but they are healthy! They can pick up tiny issues that are invisible to your dentists’ eyes and allow them to see what’s happening beneath the surface.

In case you haven't noticed, here at Courtney Dental we are massive fans of the NRL. We love showing support to our local team, the North Queensland Cowboys and during the origin series we support the Queensland Maroons. If you come into the practice during football season don't be surprised to see us supporting our favorite teams, by wearing fan shirts, decorating the practice and talking about the game. Occasionally one of our teams members will support an opposing team, we accept this rivalry begrudgingly, they are welcome to wear their own teams colors, as long as they accept teasing when their team loses. Last week Bernie forgot to wear his Cowboys jersey and had to wear the pink cowgirl hat of shame. He won't forget again anytime soon. Though we thought he looked very cute.
​We are excited about the upcoming Origin series starting this week. Go QUEENSLAND!

Our wonderful dental assistant/receptionist has been working at Courtney Dental for 20 years! She says that working along side Dr Dave Young has been a huge highlight of her life, coming to work everyday fills her with such joy, but she's mostly proud of herself for not hurting him after all these years as his work wife. We all love Bec, we hope she enjoyed her special day and look forward to many more years working together. 

Some of our latest ZOOM whitening results done by our hygienist Nicole, our patients are always so happy with their results. ZOOM whitening is a 1.5 - 2 hour professional in chair teeth whitening procedure, giving you the best results possible. 

Did you know we offer a professional denture cleaning service here at Courtney Dental.
​
When wearing dentures it is important to care for them and keep them clean just as you would with natural teeth. Plaque and calcium deposits build up on dentures just as quickly as natural teeth in the mouth.

Courtney Dental celebrated Melbourne Cup at the Townsville RSL. Craig won 2nd best dressed male and Rebecca won our sweep! We all had a brilliant day and enjoyed our time together. Below are some photos for you to enjoy. 

Whats up pumpkins? Courtney Dental is never one to miss an occasion to decorate and celebrate any event, so if you come into the practice during the month of October the reception area is looking a little different. Boo from the crew!

Our patient came to us, asking if we could whiten their teeth and rebuild some of the lost length.

After a consultation to ensure their teeth were healthy and that they were a good candidate for restorative treatment we decided on a two step procedure.

First, a treatment of Zoom whitening with our hygienist Nic, to lighten the patients teeth, which gave us excellent results. 

Following this, Dr Maddi added some composite restoration material to build up length and restore the teeth to their original appearance. We provided the patient with a night splint to prevent wear of the teeth. 

Our patient was thrilled with the results, as were Dr Maddi and Nic.
