HIGH-TECH ‘DENTAL RETREAT’ SWISH DENTAL ANNOUNCES NEW PHILANTHROPIC CAMPAIGN FOR ‘I LIVE HERE I GIVE HERE’
Grand opening event for two new Mueller locations moved to spring 2019, details to be announced
(AUSTIN, TEXAS – Feb. 4, 2019; source: Juice Consulting) – Austin-based dentistry Swish Dental is proud to announce a new campaign where they are giving back to those in need. The campaign, called “If You Don’t Have a Smile, I’ll Give You One of Mine,” will feature a custom-designed wall where patients can take photos to share on social media. Swish Dental will then donate five dollars for each photo taken to the charity “I Live Here I Give Here,” whose missions is to make Austin the most generous community in the United States. The dentistry is also moving their grand opening event for their newest Austin locations in the Mueller area, Swish Dental Family at 2604 Aldrich St., Austin, Texas 78723 and Swish Dental Alamo at 1911 Aldrich St., Austin, Texas 78723, to spring 2019, with more details to be announced.
“The Austin community has been so welcoming and inspiring to Swish,” said Swish Dental Founder Dr. Viraj Desai. “It’s easy to see how surrounding ourselves with people who share such a passionate community commitment, the possibilities are endless.”
Swish Dental is currently located at five locations throughout Austin, including central Austin (3715 S 1st St Suite B, Austin, Texas 78704), south Austin (8916 Brodie Ln Suite 400, Austin, Texas 78748), north Austin (3310 W. Braker Ln bldg 1-100, Austin, Texas 78758), Swish Dental Boulder (10200 Boulder Ln #300, Austin, Texas 78726) and Swish Dental Bull Creek (7300 Ranch Rd 2222 #216, Austin, Texas 78730). In 2019, the dentistry plans to expand even further with its Mueller locations and more.
The Swish Dental experience reimagines routine dental care by combining quality care with unparalleled patient comfort and experience, creating an immersive experience coined as a “dental retreat.” Swish Dental Founder Dr. Viraj Desai entered the dental care world with two goals in mind: to provide a superior level of dental care to patients, and two, to empower women in the field of dental health. Dr. Desai strove to open an office that cut through the corporate reins of of dental industry and develop an approach that prioritizes the comfort of the patient.
“Swish was created to provide an elevated comfort centric dental experience unlike no other,” said Dr. Desai. “We focus on the patient experience and comfort while in our offices. If there is something that is already not on our comfort menu, we ask that you let us know, and we’ll get it added! Swish also has a strong platform for women in dentistry – we are woman founded and owned and believe in bridging the gap with more female dentist owners.”
Swish Dental patients are treated to unique amenities to maximize their comfort, so that a routine six-month cleaning is more like a dental day spa. On their “comfort menu,” they offer luxuries such as plush blankets and warming eye masks to keep patients relaxed in what is usually expected to be a cold, uncomfortable environment. Patients can even borrow a complementary pair of Beats by Dre headphones and watch Netflix while getting a quality teeth cleaning. Bathrooms in the office are also stocked with pre-pasted toothbrushes and an assortment of complementary mouthwashes for last minute touch ups before or after a cleaning.
Swish Dental also utilizes state of the art technology that enhances the patient experience. Low radiation, 360 degree x-rays ensure superior treatment and comprehensive imagery at quicker speeds, without the discomfort of multiple x-rays. The dentistry offers digital itero scanning to visualize a patient’s whole mouth and track changes year over year. They also use this technology to straighten teeth with Invisalign, a service not provided by many dentists in town. With this technology, Swish Dental team members also prioritize the human element, going over every image with the patient. This humanizing moment with the doctor means that patients walk out of their exam with a broad understanding of their current dental work up and any actions necessary for superior health.
“At Swish, we believe in the newest technology and the most comfort for our patients,” said Dr. Desai. “We use low radiation x-rays that are fast and comfortable for our patients. We also use itero digital scanning on every patient to track changes in their smile year over year. With digital scanning, we are able to eliminate all of the goop and mess that comes with going to the dentist. Everyday, we are changing the way dentistry is done and improving upon our patient experience.”
The Swish Dental difference can even be seen from the lobby, as offices are made to feel more like an art gallery than a traditional dental office. Swish Dental commissions and showcases local art in each lobby to making bold statements in bright vibrant colors. Art pieces are even rotated regularly so patients will get to experience new local art with every teeth cleaning. Appointments can be made at three locations in Austin: the Domain (North Austin), South First (central Austin), and Brodie Lane (South Austin), with more offices to come, including projects in the Mueller area.
“Swish is local Austin born and created with love,” said Desai. “We thoroughly enjoy every community we take part in and are excited for our two upcoming projects in the Mueller area. Mueller was really a family oriented community that we had wanted to be a part of since the creation of Swish and are really looking forward to our first Swish family office!”
