Treatments
Everything most families need, under one roof.
We refer out when a specialist genuinely serves you better — and we will tell you plainly when that is the case.
Cosmetic & whitening
Take-home whitening, composite bonding and porcelain veneers. We mock the result up first so you decide before anything is permanent.
From $390Emergency care
Broken tooth, lost filling, swelling or pain. Ring before 10am and we will find you a slot that day, every weekday.
Assessment $95Invisible braces
Clear aligner treatment for crowding and gaps, with a 3D scan at the first visit. Most cases finish in six to twelve months.
From $4,200Implants & crowns
Single implants, bridges and same-visit ceramic crowns milled in the practice. No temporary crown, no second appointment.
From $1,850Children's dentistry
First visits from age two, fissure sealants and a genuinely patient approach. Under-13 check-ups are free for enrolled families.
Free under 13Your first visit
No surprises — not on the chair, not on the bill.
We talk first
Fifteen minutes, sitting up and fully clothed, before anything goes near your mouth. Tell us what you're worried about. Plenty of our patients haven't been to a dentist in years — you will not be lectured.
We show you what we see
An intraoral camera puts your teeth on the screen beside you. You see the same image the dentist does, and we explain what is urgent, what can wait, and what needs nothing at all.
You get the price in writing
A written plan with every fee itemised, emailed before you commit. If a treatment could be staged over two years to spread the cost, we will say so.

Our prices are on the website on purpose.

What patients say
The reviews we're proudest of.
I avoided dentists for eleven years out of pure fear. Dr Whitfield sat and talked to me for twenty minutes before she even looked in my mouth. I've been back four times since without dreading it.
Cracked a molar on a Sunday. Rang at 8:40 on Monday, was in the chair by 11, walked out with a permanent crown the same afternoon. I still don't quite believe it.
They quoted $2,100 for my son's aligners and charged exactly $2,100. After three practices that all “found something extra”, that alone made them our family dentist.
Common questions
Things people ask us before they book.
I'm genuinely frightened of the dentist. Can you help?
Yes, and you are in good company — it is the single most common thing patients tell us. Book a talk-only consultation: you sit in a normal chair, fully upright, and nothing goes near your mouth. We agree a stop signal before any treatment starts and we honour it every time. Oral sedation is available if you'd like it.
How much will it cost, and will you tell me before you start?
Our standard fees are published on this page. After your examination you receive a written, itemised plan by email, and we do not begin treatment until you have said yes to it. If something unexpected appears mid-treatment we stop and talk to you rather than carrying on and adding it to the bill.
Do you take my insurance?
We bill six major insurers directly, so you usually pay only the gap on the day. Bring your membership number to your first appointment and our reception team will check your cover and tell you your exact out-of-pocket cost before you go in.
Can I get an appointment today?
We keep emergency slots open every weekday morning. Ring before 10am and we will almost always see you the same day. Routine check-ups are usually available within the week, and you can book those online at any hour.
Do you see children, and from what age?
From age two. The first visit is a ride in the chair, a count of the teeth and a sticker — no treatment unless there's a problem. Check-ups are free for under-13s in enrolled families.
