Are you a preferred health insurance provider?

We focus on providing only the highest quality of service and care. Our fees are a reflection of this quality. Our responsibility is to look after you and give you the best most appropriate care for your individual needs. Therefore, we choose to have no contracts with any health insurers, which means we do not have any conflict of interest between our relationship with you, our loyal patients and a corporate third party.


How often should I see the dentist?

You should visit your dentist every 6 months for a regular clean and check-up. Plaque and tartar build up can be significantly reduced by a regular clean. The more often you see the dentist the more comfortable and pleasant your mouth will feel.
