Services
General Dentistry
Our comprehensive general dentistry services include check-ups, cleanings, and preventive care tailored to all ages. We focus on early detection of oral health issues and patient education to maintain optimal dental hygiene. Our approach combines modern techniques with personalised attention to ensure comfortable, effective treatment for families.
Teeth Whitening
We offer both in-chair and take-home whitening solutions using professional-grade BPA-free materials. Our customised treatments safely remove stains while minimising sensitivity. Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions to maintain results, with options for touch-up treatments to ensure long-lasting smile enhancement through clinically proven methods.
Emergency Dental Care
Our emergency dental services address sudden dental trauma, infections, and severe pain with prompt attention. We prioritise same-day appointments for acute cases, providing immediate relief through extractions, repairs, or pain management. Our team ensures clear communication about treatment options and aftercare to resolve emergencies efficiently.
Invisalign Treatment
Dr. Mallabar specialises in Invisalign clear aligner therapy for discreet teeth straightening. This treatment uses digital planning to create customised, removable trays that gradually reposition teeth. Patients benefit from fewer dietary restrictions and improved oral hygiene during treatment, achieving straighter smiles with minimal impact on daily life.
Paediatric Dentistry
We provide child-friendly dental care including check-ups, preventive treatments, and educational sessions. Our practice features a tooth fairy program during school holidays and classroom presentations on oral hygiene. All staff hold Blue Cards for child safety, ensuring a welcoming environment that builds positive dental habits from an early age.

Even if you dont like going to the dentist - which I definitely dont - youll feel calm and relaxed (relatively speaking!) here. Amanda and her team go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and put you at ease. Amanda explains everything clearly and doesnt make you feel embarrassed about voicing your worst dentist fears. I totally recommend this clinic for the best in dental care on the Coast.

The team at Sunshine Dental Care are so wonderful. All the reception staff, hygienists and dentists Amanda and Heather are the best kind of humans. Theyre understanding of diverse needs, gentle, compassionate and so caring. I also love that they bulk bill children under the Medicare scheme straight away, so no out of pocket costs for us. My children love going, and Im so thankful. Just a great group! Thank you.

I had my appointment with Dr Amanda on Friday and she was awesome. She examined me and said there was no need for me to get a filling (that another dentist had recommended). When does that happen? Her total honesty and pleasant nature made my day. I would recommend them to anyone.

I could not wish for a more capable, efficient, caring and compassionate dentist than Amanda Mallabar. Every staff member is warm and friendly, and I no longer dread going to the dentist.
