Services
Preventive Dentistry
Our preventive dentistry focuses on maintaining optimal oral health through regular check-ups and tailored hygiene advice. We educate patients on effective cleaning techniques and product selection to prevent dental issues before they arise. With early intervention strategies and routine examinations, we help patients maintain healthy teeth and gums throughout their lives.
Children's Dentistry
Specialised dental care for children creates positive lifelong oral health habits. Our gentle approach includes preventive treatments and minimally invasive procedures when needed. We work closely with parents to ensure children receive age-appropriate care in a welcoming environment that reduces dental anxiety.
Restorative Dentistry
Modern restorative treatments repair damaged teeth using durable, aesthetic materials. We specialise in adhesive fillings that preserve natural tooth structure while restoring function. Our conservative approach ensures long-lasting results that maintain patients' natural smiles through minimally invasive techniques.
Implant Therapy
Dental implant solutions replace missing teeth with natural-looking, permanent restorations. We collaborate with specialist surgeons for implant placement and create custom ceramic crowns in our laboratory. This comprehensive approach ensures seamless integration with existing teeth for optimal aesthetics and function.
Emergency Dental Care
Priority treatment for dental emergencies ensures prompt pain relief and problem resolution. Our team handles urgent cases including toothaches, fractures, and dental trauma. With same-day appointments available, we provide immediate care while developing long-term treatment plans for lasting solutions.

My name is Gail Watson and I have been a patient of Dr Stuart Garraway for more than 20 years, even after I moved interstate. Dr Garraway is a highly professional dentist, he always explains treatment options thoroughly and in a friendly easy-going manner. I recently had my veneers replaced by Dr Garraway and they look fantastic. Dr Garraway is an asset to the Wilston Dental Group and I highly recommend him and the WDG team.
