I had a lot of work done recently, around a dozen fillings and a root canal as well. You can probably guess from that workload that I don't particularly relish visits to the dentist :)

Well, after visiting Joe Hidegh and his assistant Zara, I can say that he is the best dentist that I have ever had, and I will be going to him for life if possible. He went way above necessary in many ways. First of all I had a ton of questions about my treatment options etc, and he was happy to answer them in detail, whereas most dentists just give you a terse reply and just 'dive in'. He's also a very friendly guy and just great to talk to.

He was happy to cater to special requests I had. As I planned to get whitening done, I wanted the fillings a little whiter than my teeth were currently and he was happy to oblige. I asked to take extra precautions like a rubber dam even when not totally necessary and again he was only too happy to do that even thought it's not standard practice. In fact because of this he spend a lot of time getting the right fitting brace there. One tooth was really oddly shaped, and my gums kept getting rubbed by the metal brace, and he replaced it 4 times I think until we found one that fit - thanks! Zara was also great in this regard, very good at making sure the patient's comfortable.

But mainly what amazed me was the extra effort he put into the quality of the work. He's a real professional. He spent a lot of extra time after each filling was completed getting it to not only the perfect height (the part where you chomp on the ink - for every tooth he had me do this 3-5 times to really get it perfect). But after that, maybe 5 minutes on top, to get a really natural looking geography to the tooth as well. Almost every tooth in my mouth has at least one filling, and you can't even tell!

Finally, all of this was done while I was getting treated on special promotional rates at the time due to their recent expansion, so it was just pure class on his part to be treated with that much respect and attention to detail, it was definitely above and beyond.

After getting a lot of work recently elsewhere, coming to this clinic was a breath of fresh air, my dentist Joe and his assistant (Zara, i think) were both very friendly and professional, i like the fact my options regarding treatment were given clearly and the pros and cons were explained and Joe was happy to answer questions i had. I can definitely say i feel a lot less nervous about going to the dentist after this visit.

I am 54yo & it's the best dentist I've ever been to. All staff members are courteous & friendly. They explain in detail the procedures they be doing-including cost. Alison & the Hygienist are very gentle & caring. I am having general dental & teeth whitened. I live 600km away & because of the service I receive it's worth the distance I travel.

Approximate cost: $1000.00

good opening hours and adequate numbers of staff members means ha getting an appointment is not a trial, which is nice in this day and age where it seems everything needs to be done during business hours.

For someone with a real phobia of dentists this team helped me greatly.Alison took the time to support and encourage me throughout my treatment. The program of treatment was thoroughly explained,both in terms of why it was needed and how it would be done.

Approximate cost: $5000

Very professional and friendly team who showed genuine care in relation to the dental procedures undertaken. Good follow up after each procedure. Very flexible in setting appointment times to suit my schedule and not hteirs

Approximate cost: $11000

Excellent didn't have to wait beyond my appointment time and the dentist explained everything he was going to do. The girl who scheduled appoints was very helpful
