MALE VOICE 3: I had a consultation for porcelain veneers and came in and they did some molds. And then I came back and they fit some plastic veneers on I guess and everything was just like really stress free. It was not painful like I thought it was going to be. So that was pretty cool. I wore those for a couple of weeks, made some adjustments and came back and they did porcelain veneers. And now I have […]

DR. MARK SWEENEY: When porcelain veneers first came out in the early ‘90s, I was really excited because prior to that, we had had very few options for really giving somebody dramatic change in their smile. Porcelain veneers changed all that. Now we can give somebody virtually the smile of their dreams and it’s a fairly simple process. We image on a computer initially to give the patient a fairly good idea of what it is that we’re trying to […]

DR. MARK SWEENEY: Zoom whitening is one of the most exciting treatments that we offer at Austin Dental Spa. It allows us in a less than two hour period to give somebody a completely different smile. In many cases, we whiten people 10 shades whiter than they came in with. And it’s really exciting for the patient and for us to make such a change in such a short period of time. It’s painless. Its simple and it has dramatic […]

EMILY: Hi, my name is Emily and I work on the Administrative team at the front desk here at Austin Dental Spa. And I’ve been here since 2003. I started part time and have gone full time, and never really left. Working with Dr. Mark is really unlike working with any other dentist. He’s not the typical dictator dentist and running around telling everybody what to do. We are very much able to voice our opinions and bring our ideas […]

DR. MARK SWEENEY: I graduated from Dental School in 1979 with the confidence that a company’s gross ignorance, I moved back to Austin, the greatest city in the world, the center of the universe as far as I’m concerned, and started my own practice. I had no idea what I was getting into, what dentistry was all about, but I knew that I loved people and I loved Austin, and little by little, one year at a time, my practice […]

DR. MARK SWEENEY: I have always tried to make each patient’s dental experience a comfortable and comforting one. I know that’s not what you normally expect from a dentist or a dental visit, but we’ve always had warm blankets if the patients get cold we can wrap them up in. We’ve had shoulder wraps that are fairly simple little things that we started buying on the internet years ago. We can put in the microwave and warm them up, or […]

DR. MARK SWEENEY: My goal in building Austin Dental Spa was from the moment somebody walks in the front door that they realize this is not your typical dental office. The chairs, the whole reception area is done like your living room; soft Italian leather chairs, a comfortable sofa, rocking music. We have upbeat music playing fairly loudly through the office. We have different zones that we can turn the music up or down depending on the patients preferences. It’s […]
