Report
The Reception staff are not very friendly or welcoming at all, not even a smile from them. They don't explain treatment costs and expect you to understand the dental terminology without explaining what procedures you are actually paying for. This has really put me off from returning but I did like Sonia, the Dentist, she was very helpful and friendly.

Let me start by saying I normally hate the dentist. I'd rather run an ultra-marathon or eat a bowl of coriander than have my teeth worked on. Maybe I'm biased after 7 years of army dentists where they butchered my mouth like a scene out of the movie Saw. That said, I attended the Townsville Dental Centre to get a crown and was simply wowed by the skill and professional friendliness that Anjana Waran and her assistant showed me. Anjana was the most gentle and caring dentist I've ever had and I really appreciated the efforts she went to explain to me the procedure. Despite a crown procedure usually
