Dinesh Singham has lost his moral compass. My partner went in to have her teeth seen to and got some fillings then was assessed to have a further procedure I was only told would improve her teeth. Upon asking the nature of the procedure we were not given much information at all. Following this we spent more money on a model up of a finished product and was finally presented with a plan and quotation. I went to a friend who is a dentist for a second opinion and was informed that the plan was outrageous and proceeding with the dental codes would actually be dangerous and cause her damage. I

Travelling around Australia makes it hard to find service providers quickly when an emergency arises, especially those who you feel you can trust. And when a molar broke in half, yesterday, I found myself in such a predicament. I was so lucky to have struck gold when I found Absolutely Dental. They treated me like a VIP from go to woah! From the moment I walked in the door they were wonderfully kind and helpful, (I was already on crutches from a knee injury) and did everything they could for me. Dr Ali checked my damaged tooth and explained everything in detail and made sure I was happy and understood

Nicole is by far the most professional, caring, friendly, gentle dentist I have ever met. She went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and trust. I would like to recommend her to only the best people in Townsville, because she is something special like all the staff at Absolutely Dental. They are simply the best.

I haven't been to the dentist in a very long time. When I walked into absolutely dental the staff were all amazing, greeted me straight away, all staff were happy and smiling and the building itself was beautiful did not feel like a dentist. The dentist who have worked on me so far have been amazing and reassuring during my visits which has put me at ease. I highly recommend absolutely dental. Will be staying with them from now on. Super happy.

Absolutely amazing experience from a very nervous individual. Welcoming environment immediately put me at ease and after meeting Dr Nicole, knew I was in very safe and capable hands. Only wish I would have booked in years ago, really looking forward to future treatments and getting my smile back

I visited absolutely dental today for an extraction of a molar by Dr Ruth Smith. The process could not have been done more professionally. Ruth was absolutely amazing and made what could have been very painful a non event. I am not the bravest of souls when it comes to dentistry so i will definitely be using these guys in future for any other procedures i require. Thank you Ruth for taking the time to calm down a 40 year old chicken :).

I cannot thank Dr Nicole and the staff enough for the amazing care I received when having treatment. Being extremely anxious about going to the dentist and needing a lot of work done, I was certainly put at ease and finally have a smile I am happy to show to everyone. I highly recommend Absolutely Dental as they are Absolutely fantastic.
