Services
Dental Checkup
Our comprehensive dental examinations include oral cancer screening, gum health assessment, and digital X-rays. We identify early signs of decay or disease while monitoring existing dental work. Patients receive tailored advice for maintaining optimal oral hygiene between visits.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments use safe, effective formulas to remove stains from coffee, wine, or smoking. We offer custom take-home trays and in-clinic procedures that lighten teeth by multiple shades while minimising sensitivity.
Dental Implants
Replacing missing teeth with titanium posts that fuse to the jawbone, our implants provide permanent support for crowns or dentures. The process includes surgical placement followed by custom restoration for natural-looking results.
Orthodontics
We correct misaligned teeth using clear aligners and traditional braces. Treatment improves bite function, reduces wear on enamel, and enhances facial aesthetics through gradual tooth movement supervised by experienced dentists.
Emergency Care
Same-day appointments address toothaches, broken fillings, knocked-out teeth, and other dental emergencies. Our team stabilises acute issues then plans follow-up care to prevent complications and preserve oral health.

Doc,
Sam ( He/Him/ His) came across you when I was hospitalised and I had one day leave. You cleaned the bad fouled mouth to a cleaner one ! You have been included in the treating team of my ongoing medical issues. We built a therapeutic & professional relationship. You have since been the best dentist (I meant it and take fully the responsibility of my words.),
Sam ever encountered. You deserve a great vacation and shall be in when you will be in!!!
N.B:- Sam isn't posting this to do Dr Kumari's marketing whatsoever, but far from that.
Gratitude is one of virtue

I had recently visited this clinic with my 9 yr old son. I am really amazed how Dr. Madhu Kumari helped my son with his tooth cavity problems. She performed tooth filling procedure on cavity and while doing this she made my son so comfortable that whole process went on with ease. Highly recommended dentist in Melbourne.

This is the worst dentist I have ever seen. Not only was it unhygienic but she also did damage on my tooth that cost me thousands to fix and left me in severe pain after convincing me a filling needed to be replaced when it didn't. This is what is wrong with dentistry, money focused people in the industry. I would not recommend Tooth n gum, don't go there.
