Services
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Our practice specialises in wisdom teeth removal for patients aged 16+. Procedures can be performed in-clinic or under general anaesthesia at St Andrews Hospital. Dr Gregory Hulme-Peake, our oral surgery specialist with over 20 years' experience, ensures minimal discomfort using advanced techniques. The procedure addresses impacted teeth causing pain, infection, or alignment issues while minimising risks to surrounding nerves and tissues.
Dental Implants
We offer dental implant solutions for single or multiple missing teeth. The titanium implants integrate with jawbone tissue through osseointegration, providing stable foundations for crowns or bridges. Our process includes comprehensive planning with X-rays and impressions, surgical placement under local anaesthesia, and custom restoration. Implants preserve facial structure and function similarly to natural teeth while requiring regular dental maintenance.
Children's Dentistry
Our child-friendly dental services focus on preventative care and early intervention. We provide informal examinations for young patients, fluoride treatments, fissure sealants, and dietary advice. The practice creates a welcoming environment to build positive dental habits. Treatments address developmental concerns, tooth decay prevention, and early orthodontic assessments while ensuring gentle, age-appropriate care techniques.
Root Canal Treatment
This procedure saves infected or damaged teeth by removing affected pulp tissue. We treat cases caused by deep decay, trauma, or severe gum disease using precision instruments and anaesthetic techniques. The treatment prevents abscess formation, preserves natural tooth structure, and alleviates pain. Post-treatment restoration with crowns ensures long-term tooth stability and function.
Teeth Whitening
We offer professional teeth whitening solutions including in-chair laser treatments and custom home kits. The peroxide-based gel penetrates enamel to remove stains from food, drinks, or smoking. In-clinic sessions achieve visible results in 1-2 hours while home kits provide gradual lightening over 14 days. Treatments include custom-fitted trays and desensitising agents to protect enamel during the whitening process.

Thankyou Dr Jonathan Loughlin and thankyou to your wonderful staff. I phoned yeaterday with a broken back tooth that was giving me a heap of trouble. They put me on the waiting list for urgent attention, and 4 hours later I was in the chair. It was a difficult extraction, but managed with skill, and no pain. Very grateful to have this issue resolved before Christmas.
Thankyou very much.
Thankyou very much.

My fear of the dentist was overcome by Dr.Jane! My first time visit was fantastic, and compared to the Gold Coast where I moved away from, a lot more affordable. Im so happy that I found a great dentist in Toowoomba. Im actually looking forward to fixing my smile now. Thank you :)
