Frequently asked questions

How can we help you?

We have two dentists in our clinic, Kashif & Batool. We will always try to get you with the same dentist every time you visit.

We welcome all health funds but are not preferred providers for any. We are an independent practice, and all quotes and fees are individually tailored.

We have HICAPs so your health fund can be processed on the spot, and EFTPOS facilities for the gap payment.

We have Payment plan options for our patient whether it be for routine care or complex dentistry, we have a payment plan to suit. We have partnered with Zip Pay, Afterpay and Denticare to make things easier. Please give us a call to inquire more about the payment plans.

We base our fees on the Australian Dental Association’s average fee guide. We pride ourself on our quality and attention to detail and so charge accordingly. Every person is different and to be able to give you the most accurate quote and the most appropriate treatment, we take our time getting to know you and will never rush you.

We welcome you to come in for a full check-up: prices start at $199 for a new patient.

A comprehensive examination includes:

  • Getting you know you, your needs and wants
  • How your general health may be impacting your oral health, and vice versa
  • Screening of your soft tissues (gums, tongue, palate, cheeks, lips etc) for any signs of disease or oral cancer
  • Checking the health of your gums around your teeth
  • Checking the teeth
  • Further investigations/tests, which may include x-rays
  • Sometimes we have to refer you to radiology for a full mouth dental x-ray
  • Once all this information has been collected, your bespoke treatment plan will be created.
  • You will be given all the pros/cons and alternate treatments and associated costs.

We love treating children and starting them off on a positive dental journey. The younger you can take your child to the dentist, the better. It gives them time to get used to the surroundings and the dentist, and also helps us spot any issues before they become a big problem.

Aim to bring your child when the first tooth erupts or by their 1st birthday (whichever comes first).
