Teeth Whitening
Northmead Dental offers professional teeth whitening using Zoom technology, providing rapid results with minimal sensitivity. Our treatments utilise high-intensity blue light activation for optimal whitening efficiency. Custom at-home kits and combination therapies ensure tailored solutions for budget-conscious or time-poor patients.
Dental Implants
We provide permanent dental implants as natural replacements for missing teeth, restoring function and aesthetics. Our solutions include implant-stabilised dentures and single-tooth replacements. Early intervention prevents bone loss and adjacent tooth movement, ensuring long-term oral health stability.
Emergency Dentistry
Our practice allocates daily time slots for dental emergencies, treating traumatic injuries and acute pain. Available for same-day appointments, we address issues like toothaches, fractures, and infections with prompt, compassionate care to alleviate discomfort immediately.
Children's Dentistry
Specialised dental services for children focus on creating positive experiences through gentle techniques. Our team employs child-friendly communication and preventive strategies, including fissure sealing and oral health education, to establish lifelong dental hygiene habits.
Invisalign
Northmead Dental offers Invisalign's transparent aligner system for discreet teeth straightening. Custom 3D-designed aligners gradually reposition teeth without traditional brackets, allowing removable wear for meals and cleaning. Ideal for busy professionals seeking subtle orthodontic correction.

I am petrified of the dentist and hadn't been for 10 years! These guys are the best! I was comfortable and at ease and my procedure was explained to me every step of the way! Crazy but I'm going back because i have a few more things needed and the experience was so good i can't risk going anywhere else! Highly recommend

Northmead Dental have been exceptional in the work theyve done with my Invisalign treatment. Their professionalism, care and consideration have found a loyal customer in me. Dr. Kim was absolutely AH-amazing at having my best interest. Brittany and April at reception were always friendly, kind and organised - great way to start and finish. Kudos on what youve got going on and wish you all the more success.

A huge thank you to Jodie, the clinic manager for fitting me in. She welcomed me with a huge smile, did all the forms etc and explained that afternoon. I met with Dr Andrea Lakatos. What a wonderful dentist. She was cautious but thorough. the experience As a new patient I was given a toothbrush and a small tote bag as a gift. With the gap, it came up to just over $100 plus. Will be back. Worth travelling from North Sydney.
