What is your risk profile?
I have a very good friend who was in the armed services. On a visit to an airbase, he noticed one of the trainer aircraft sitting in the corner of a giant hangar. He asked, “What’s wrong with that one?” The response was interesting … Apparently, this aircraft had been…
Pushing the envelope
If you've read any of my previous articles, you'll immediately understand that I'm really committed to conserving teeth. As many real estate agents will tell you about land: "God's not making any more". For each person, this is true of teeth. If you're not getting any more teeth, it makes…
Keeping your teeth for life
One of the most common concerns of patients is, “How do I keep my teeth into old age…(and avoid dentures)?” This has been critical in the development of my restorative dental care. The best way I can help you keep your teeth for life is: Avoid cutting away your teeth…
Minimal Intervention Dental Care: What’s it About? {Part 2}
In part I of this series, I discussed the basic philosophies around minimal intervention dental care – saving sound tooth structure (i.e. not cutting away teeth), repairability and restorative life cycles.

Teeth for Life!
“We’re not getting any younger…”I’m sure if you’re in your fifties, like myself, you can cast your mind back to when you could not only run 10 kilometres – but run it in a relatively fast time. I no longer run – I find it a bit harsh on my…
Order of treatment
If you’ve ever been involved in constructing any type of building, you’ll know that there is a particular order of operations if you wish to successfully complete the project as planned and to budget. Early steps involve more planning type work, and later phases are weighted towards operational (physical construction)…
Why Talk to Your Dentist Before Treatment?
If you’ve been following my series of articles over the past two years, you would know that I’m big on treatment planning. Very often I encounter patients that have never experienced having their dental care mapped out for them, and it is largely for the patient’s benefit. Of course, I…
The Most Boring Patient
We’ve got a saying that we like to share with a significant proportion of our patients. Some dentists would feel uncomfortable sharing such a statement with their patients. Not us at BelleDental. You see, we celebrate our MOST boring patients. Boring? Yes, that’s what we call them. And it is…

Minimal Intervention Dental Care: What’s it About? {Part I}
Let me say from the outset that I’m not the ‘be all and end all’ of minimal intervention dentistry. On the flip-side, I’ve been consciously practising what I think is minimal intervention dentistry (or my own brand of) for the last 30 or so years. Let me share some insights.…
Keeping it Simple
Most people who contact me regarding dental treatment have suffered a combination of neglect as well as being unsure of how to proceed with the care of their teeth and jaws. A small proportion have had the misfortune of having exotic dental care presented to them: care that is not…

Dr Huszti explains the dental consequences of stress and for many of us, bruxism or clenching of teeth is one of the more immediate responses. Make a coffee ☕️ and check it out on the online edition of Intouch Magazine 👇 https://bit.ly/34hwjCW
Stress and Dental Disease PART 2
Stress impacts different people in different ways. Everyone is strong in at least one aspect of their being – in the same way, we all have weaknesses. No one is strong on all fronts. It is these susceptibilities that stress can exploit. In some ways, some may consider this as…
Stress and Dental Disease
2020: what a year it has been! I feel reasonably confident in saying that everyone has been confronted in one way or another with change or new experiences as a consequence of Covid-19. Change – especially change that is foisted upon us – can be demanding to deal with. Almost…
Planning is KEY to Dental Stability
“Not having a plan is a plan to fail.” We’ve all heard this before – it’s about strategy. Sure, planning doesn’t guarantee success, but at least, a plan identifies the starting point, it identifies possible hurdles, it sets a goal and can help with the order of activity. This is…
Freezing Time
I hope that this digital issue of intouch Magazine finds all of its readers well. Belledental is one of the fortunate businesses that can express significant gratitude around the imminent further easing of restrictions that commence from May 15. During the Covid-19 restrictions, dentistry was wound back to the most…

Good Fundamentals Key to Dental Treatment
I regularly see patients for second opinions. Almost invariably, the patient has been presented with an exotic plan of treatment – complex and filled with all of the latest trends in dental restorative procedures. But on inspection of their mouth, I notice that basics have been overlooked. What about the…
Are Dental Bridges an option for you??
All dental bridges rely on connecting to robust teeth on either side of the space left by the missing tooth. It is the teeth on either side of the space that will support the false tooth that will fill the gap left by the missing tooth. These types of bridges…
