Dental spa
A dental spa is a dental facility supervised by a licensed Oral Health Care Provider in which dental services are provided alongside spa treatments.〔Brosseau, J. (September/October 2005) (Spa Rx: Transcend-dental ) ''Spa Finder Magazine''. Accessed September 13, 2007.〕〔Quinion, M. (Feb. 2003). “Dental Spa” ''World Wide Words'' http://www.worldwidewords.org/turnsofphrase/tp-den2.htm (Toronto Star November 2002 coverage of Dental Spa Pacific Palisades and citing ''The Guardian,’' London, Jan. 2003)(“The Atlanta Center for Cosmetic Dentistry in Georgia is one of the first of these new dental spas.”) Brosseau, J. (September/October 2005) (Spa Rx: Transcend-dental ) ''Spa Finder Magazine''. Accessed September 13, 2007. ("Lynn Watanabe, DDS, one of the field's pioneers")〕
"Spa dentistry" refers to dental practices that offer many services not normally associated with dental care: facials, paraffin wax hand treatment, reflexology, micro-dermabrasion, massage therapy, Botox and Restylane treatment, and many other pampering, therapeutic and rejuvenating offerings.〔Glick, M. (One-Stop Shopping ) ''J Am Dent Assoc.'' Vol 138, No 3, 282-283 (2007).〕 The administration of botox and restylane is based on each respective state's dental board approval.
==Etymology==
The American Dental Association notes that the consumer media have coined the term “dental spa,” but many practices offer services and amenities specifically designed to relax patients without considering themselves a “spa.”〔American Dental Assoc. News Release (Growing Number of Oral Health Care Providers Offer Patient-Pampering Amenities ) ''J Am Dent Assoc'' October 23, 2003.〕 The loose definition of “dental spas” makes it difficult if not impossible to know how many dental spas exist in the United States.〔
In 2003, Lynn Watanabe, DDS of the Dental Spa in Pacific Palisades, California, and the Day Spa Association defined a dental spa as "a facility whose dental program is run under the strict supervision of a licensed Oral Health Care Provider, which might be a Dentist or an Independent Dental Hygienist. Services are provided that integrate both traditional and non-traditional dental and spa treatments (such as massage therapy, skincare and body treatments)." 〔Day Spa Association Glossary 2003〕〔Dental+Spa=Blackjack, American Dental Association 147th Annual Scientific Session, October 19, 2006.〕
