      I don’t like injections/needles. If I need one, will it hurt?

      Before delivering any injection we first apply a powerful topical anaesthetic to the area which will make the area numb and eliminate discomfort. We can also provide inhalation sedation (‘happy gas’) before and during the injection if you prefer. Please let us know if you are concerned about injections so our understanding team know to discuss this with you beforehand, and can ensure you are as comfortable and relaxed as possible.

      Are you experienced in treating young children?

      Yes, we are experienced in Paedodontics, which is specific dentistry for young children. We see babies as young as 6 weeks old to diagnose and rectify developmental problems such as tongue ties. We actively encourage the early involvement of children in the dental environment, even if they just accompany a parent to their appointment. We provide a children’s play area, child minding, and conduct children’s tours of the practice so they can become familiar with the setting.


      Do you cater to anxious / nervous patients, or patients who have had a bad dental experience in the past?

      Yes, we are very experienced in this area, and we have successfully treated many patients with these concerns over the years. Our empathetic team have a caring and gentle approach. We will take the time to understand your fears and concerns, so we can tailor treatment to reduce or eliminate your anxiety.

      Do you offer IV Sedation for your procedures?

      Yes, we offer IV (Intravenous) Sedation. This is also called ‘sleep dentistry’, ‘conscious sedation’ or ‘twilight sedation’, and is administered by a specialist anaesthetist We also offer oral sedatives and inhalation sedation (also called ‘happy’ or ‘laughing’ gas). At VC Dental we want to ensure you are as comfortable as possible during your appointments. We offer sedation from involved surgery down to the smallest of procedures; depending on the level of complexity or patient anxiety.

      Yes. We offer same-day urgent care appointments, 7 days per week, with no weekend surcharges. New patients are always welcome.

      I have been receiving dental treatment form Dr Woodward , principal at V C Dental East Gosford for many years .
      The main reasons why I continue to have treatment at this practice is the fact that this is a very professional organisation
      The staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome at all times .They also keep up to date with modern dental equipment .
      I will continue to use this dental practice in the future and would thoroughly recommend their services to anyone
      Cheers

      I found this practice after my previous dentist Dr Moyes (woy woy) retired some years ago. I used to have a mouth full of metal fillings that had been filled years ago and were cracking and causing alot of aches when eating. Dr Woodward & Dr Usher have now replaced all my old metal fillings with white ones. I can now enjoy eating without any pain. I was also thankful that I was able to pay my treatment off, and received quality dental treatment.

      Enjoyed the trip to the Dentist

      Who would think it was possible to enjoy a trip to the dentist. I had quite an extensive procedure performed last Friday. Implant Stage 1 performed with skill, expertise & reassurance from Dr Lee Woodward.

      A very special thank you to the surgical team Lisa & Sheridan.
