Services
General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services encompass check-ups, fillings, extractions, and preventive care. We focus on early decay detection using digital radiography and caries control programs. Treatments include air abrasion and laser dentistry for minimally invasive procedures, ensuring long-term oral health for patients of all ages.
Orthodontics
We offer Invisalign aligners and fixed braces for discreet teeth straightening. Our orthodontic treatments address mild to moderate alignment issues, improving both aesthetics and bite function. Custom treatment plans use advanced imaging to map precise tooth movements, ensuring optimal results without compromising comfort.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening options include in-chair ZOOM bleaching and custom home kits. We use carbamide peroxide-based agents for safe, effective stain removal. Treatments target discolouration from diet, age, or lifestyle factors, delivering brighter smiles in as little as one hour with lasting results.
Dental Implants
Implant crowns and bridges provide permanent solutions for missing teeth. Our process includes surgical planning and placement of titanium posts to support natural-looking restorations. Implants preserve jawbone density and restore full chewing function, offering a durable alternative to dentures.
Sleep Apnoea Management
We diagnose and treat obstructive sleep apnoea with custom oral appliances. These devices reposition the jaw to keep airways open during sleep, reducing snoring and improving sleep quality. Treatment plans may combine appliance therapy with lifestyle adjustments for comprehensive symptom relief.

I cannot recommend this practice enough! I had a molar extracted yesterday, by Dr Jenny Pham. To say it was pain free would be an understatement. My tooth was in a bad way and I had put off getting it out. I was asking about the procedure before hand, curious to know how it was going to be removed because there was very little tooth left above the
Gum. Dr.Jenny managed to take the tooth out in two pieces without causing me any discomfort. I didn't even realize the tooth was fully out until she asked her assistant for saline. Less than 30 hours after the removal and I have little to no swelling

Im not a fan of dental experiences. Unpleasant childhood dentist experiences ruined me such that even a routine clean is enough to bring on a good sweat. Matt was so gentle and thorough that my fear of the dentist chair just got a little less severe. Ill never go anywhere else in future for my routine clean
