“A spa-like trip to the dentist – yes please! On arrival at Happy Teeth in Sydney’s CBD, I’m offered certified organic tea and Dr Nader Malik asks me about my health and eating habits. I’m covered in a white blanket, hooked up to relaxing “alpha” music with noise reducing headphones (no drill noise: bonus) and stare at the tranquil Japanese gardens on the ceiling TV. Dr Malik inspects; he whitens – I’m in lala land. Afterwards, I’m led to the recovery spa for a massage chair and water. A pleasing dentist experience. Who would have thought?”
