Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth using titanium posts fused with jawbone for permanent support. Suitable for single or multiple tooth replacements, including All-on-Four solutions. Implants prevent bone loss and maintain facial structure while offering natural function and aesthetics.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses custom clear aligners to straighten teeth discreetly. Effective for mild to moderate orthodontic issues, these removable trays allow normal eating and cleaning. Treatment involves sequential aligners adjusted every 1-2 weeks under professional supervision.
Crowns and Bridges
Crowns restore damaged teeth while bridges replace missing ones using adjacent teeth or implants for support. Available in porcelain or composite, these restorations improve function and appearance. Same-day fabrication ensures efficient treatment completion.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening includes in-chair Zoom treatments achieving 8-shade improvement in one hour, or custom home kits. Safe for enamel with desensitising options. Results last 2-3 years with proper maintenance and dietary habits.
Twilight Sedation
IV sedation reduces dental anxiety during procedures like extractions or implants. Patients remain semi-conscious but responsive. Administered by accredited sedationists with continuous monitoring, this option ensures comfortable treatment for complex or fearful cases.

I was referred here by my family and have not regretted coming here. I took out all four wisdom teeth under twilight sedation with Dr Jake and couldn't be happier. The treatment ran smoothly and the healing process was not as bas as everyone had assumed. I hardly had any swelling/bruising and no pain after the surgery. I was well looked after by the team, they gave me a blanket and a special teddy bear to take home. I'm glad I chose to have my treatment done with Gosford Family Dentist.

Going to the dentist isn't always a pleasant experience, but the team here are so friendly and accommodating that it's hard not to feel at ease. They are very professional and I always feel that I am receiving the best care, treatment, and advice. I usually like to ask a lot of questions about treatment options and the condition of my teeth and Dr Jang is always more than happy to answer any questions I have. My only regret is that I'm moving away and will have to find another dentist. Thanks team! :)

I have been a patient of Dr Jake for many years now. I found Dr Jake to be honest and professional. I have had countless procedures done with Dr Jake from tooth extraction, root canal and now in the process of crowns put in. Dr Jake is gentle and making any procedures to be painless and comfortable. The staff make coming to the dentist warm and welcoming. Now my children have taken to Dr Jake and they won't see any other dentist. Dr Jake and his staff interacts with with kids to make them feel comfortable when coming to the dentist. Thanks Gosford Family Dental!
