BDent, General Dentist
Dr Melissa Licenblat is a female General Dentist.
I have been in private general practice in Sydney since graduation from the University of Sydney's Dental program, prior to this I lived in Melbourne where I completed a Bachelor of Science with honours in Microbiology.
I am a member of numerous dental societies and continuously attend post-graduate educational programmes both locally and abroad, the results of which I integrate into the practice thus offering my patients the most modern and effective long-term treatment modalities.
I have attended numerous courses including the Olmos' residency on TMD & Sleep Disorders at the world renowned Las Vegas Institute of Advanced Dental Studies (LVI), as part of my commitment to provide the finest dentistry for my patients.
I have also had the opportunity to complete world class clinical training with full mentoring by world experts on the very latest in porcelain procedures, dual training in both implant surgery as well as implant restorations (implant supported crowns, bridges and dentures) and endodontics (root canal therapy).
My dental interests have always centred around oral rehabilitation using the most biocompatible dental materials available including the use of oral implants and the issues surrounding holistic health care. More recently I have focused on the correlation between healthy sleeping/breathing habits. I am very interested in the use of oral appliances for the treatment of sleep related and Temporomandibular joint disorders and their effect on overall health.
I have been able to diagnose and treat TMD (joint) disorders using the most advanced techniques in neuromuscular and cosmetic dentistry whereby numerous patients have been treated with life changing results, improving their quality of life by alleviating or eliminating some of the extreme symptoms associated with TMD disorders such as chronic pain and headaches/migraines.
I believe strongly in the importance of treating people in a bright, vibrant, friendly and caring environment with as little fear and anxiety as possible. I aim for a completely comfort orientated exceptional experience which desensitises people to the concept of the dentist.
I have strong beliefs in offering patients options with supporting evidence-based information on the positives and negatives of these options. This enables you, as the patient, to make an educated decision regarding the treatment that best suits your particular circumstance.
Your smile and dental health are genuinely important to me, you will find that I am dedicated to ensuring you look and feel your best. I will work with you to achieve the results you desire.
