Dental Tourism

St. Louis MO Dentist Office Soft Touch Dentistry proudly offers Dental Tourism, an outstanding and unique service that accommodates out of town patients for elite cosmetic dentistry and restorative dental care. While procedures such as dental implants or porcelain veneers are financially out of reach in some areas, Dental Tourism enables patients to seek top quality dental care outside of their local healthcare system. In addition, it provides individuals with a way to work affordable dental care into a vacation, and St. Louis is the perfect place for a short stay. It is a central U.S. location that makes it easy to reach by plane or car.

As you age, flesh will outlive your teeth. Thus, extensive reconstruction is often called for. Yet, the burden of such a cost can be overwhelming. This is why cost savings is a huge factor in the global trend of Dental Tourism. As a traveling dental patient, you need not sacrifice quality to save money. Dr. Sarah Thompson works with precision and artistry to transform smiles, all at a modest price. She has welcomed patients from major cities such as Baltimore, New York, Miami, and Chicago. Whether you choose to travel for a specific service or simply find yourself in the area as an “incidental traveler,” you can receive the best dental care at your leisure.

Cosmetic Dentistry for Out of Town Patients

As a subset of Medical Tourism, Dental Tourism also includes Patients Beyond Borders. This enables patients to receive affordable excellence when it comes to cosmetic dentistry, at a 30-70% cost savings. At Soft Touch Dentistry, Dr. Thompson delivers unmatched expertise and a full range of restorative services. Lumineers, Invialign, ClearCorrect, dental bonding, and teeth whitening are a few advanced services rendered by Dr. Thompson to patients from all over the U.S. and beyond. To provide extra comfort, sedation dentistry is available as well.

If you are a patient arriving by air, we gladly provide you with private transportation in a black sedan that travels directly to our practice. A caring and friendly staff will welcome you to our contemporary office at Soft Touch Dental. Dr. Thompson and staff will ensure that you are educated about every aspect of your treatment, and will we arrange for you to be escorted back to your hotel for your overnight stay. When it’s time for your departure, we will plan for your return to the airport. As a traveling patient, you will be given a complimentary stay at the Four Seasons St. Louis Hotel and Spa.

What is Occlusion and Why Does It Matter?

January 19, 2021

Orthodontic Treatments, Restoring a Bad Bite

Have you ever heard your dentist use the term “occlusion” or “malocclusion” during one of your appointments? If you are not familiar with this word, it essentially refers to your bite, or the way your top teeth fit on your bottom teeth when you close your mouth. Most commonly, malocclusion (or a “bad bite) is discussed alongside orthodontic treatment options. (more…)

Addressing Your Dental Anxiety

December 21, 2020

Dental Anxiety Options, Fear Of the Dentist

Dental anxiety or dental fear is what keeps 9% to 15% of Americans from receiving dental care each year. Whether it is the mere mention of the word “dentist” or the thought of an extensive dental procedure that sends your heart racing, there are ways your dentist can help. While most modern dental practices are equipped with highlighted comfort amenities, such as blankets, soothing music and TV entertainment, there is another remedy that is sure to help you relax. Sedation dentistry allows patients with mild to moderate dental anxiety to undergo dental procedures without suffering panic or stress. (more…)

Root Canal Therapy, Saving a Damaged Tooth

Hearing the term “root canal” may make you cringe. However, it is important to understand that a root canal is no more painful than getting a cavity filled. In fact, root canal therapy is likely your only chance at saving your tooth and alleviating your relentless toothache.

It’s Time To Discuss Your Bad Breath

October 23, 2020

Chronic Bad Breath Treatments, Remedies for Halitosis

Has wearing a mask throughout the day made you more aware of your bad breath? Bad breath, or halitosis, is an embarrassing condition. If you don’t treat it at its source, your efforts of mints and chewing gum can be quite futile. Chronic halitosis goes beyond “garlic breath” after eating Italian or the common morning breath that we all experience when waking up. Patients who suffer from bad breath on a daily basis, regardless of what they’ve eaten or if they’ve brushed that morning, should consider working with a dentist to get to the root cause. In some cases, bad breath can be a warning sign of something more serious going on in your mouth or your body. (more…)

I always have a very positive experience when I visit Soft Touch Dentistry. Dr. Thompson has done two crowns for me that turned out nicely and the staff is very professional.

Kara Manley

I visited their new location and the first thing I noticed was the smell of pumpkin spice candles when I walked in the door. The waiting room is homey and their television is set to HGTV. Makes the wait very pleasant!
