Services
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry offers a comfortable alternative to traditional tools, reducing discomfort and recovery time. This technology enables precise treatment for gum disease, cavity preparation, and soft tissue procedures. Patients benefit from less bleeding, reduced need for anaesthesia, and faster healing compared to conventional methods.
Same Day Crowns
Our same-day crowns use advanced CEREC technology to create custom ceramic restorations onsite. This eliminates multiple visits, providing durable, natural-looking results in one appointment. The process involves digital impressions, in-house milling, and immediate placement for damaged or decayed teeth.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers improve smile aesthetics by covering stained, chipped, or misaligned teeth. These thin shells bond directly to tooth surfaces, offering a natural appearance and stain resistance. Treatment includes consultation, preparation, and placement for smile transformations.
Children's Dentistry
Our child-friendly dental services focus on preventive care and early intervention. Treatments include check-ups, fissure sealing, and trauma management tailored to young patients. We use engaging techniques to create positive experiences and establish lifelong oral health habits.
Emergency Dentistry
We prioritise urgent dental care for pain, trauma, or infections. Services include same-day appointments for broken teeth, abscesses, or lost fillings. Our team provides immediate relief and stabilisation for unexpected oral health crises.

I've had 5 dental consultations (including 2 cerns and sensed she really cared. Most dentist want to automatically jump to a root canal but Dr. Rui was willing to try a less invasive treatment. Ive also had 2 friends who also were told to either pull a tooth and to get a root canal but Dr. Rui was able to do the least invasive procedure. The laser cleansing is absolutely revolutionary. y only concern is that is that her popularity will increase and I won't get a spot easily.

My first visit to this surgery was in 2003 when it was Gary Johnson Dental in the old Myer complex in Coorparoo. The service here has always been first class
Faultless actually. In all those years not once have I had to wait even a minute passed my scheduled appointment time.. My technician Rui and her assistant Haley are absolute fabulous. They both always make me feel comfortable, confident and relaxed in their care,
Guess thats why, still to this day, I make the 7 hour round trip from my home to Brisbane twice a year.
Congratulations Gary to you and your fantastic team. See you in July

I have been going to Rui for many years, and consider her to be THE BEST dentist I have ever been to. She is caring, and takes the time to explain what is required, and makes you feel at ease. Would highly recommend everyone to go to Rui. She would be wonderful with children also.

I highly recommed Dr Rui. She is straight to the point, thorough but most of all very compassionate. I think I may be the biggest sook on the planet but with Dr Rui I am getting through all the work I need to get done and there is quite a bit of work to do due to my absolute fear of needles. Also compared to my partners dentist the costing is very reasonable! I just can't recommend Dr. Rui enough.
