Compassion in Every Smile, Care in Every Detail

Your Local Cranbourne Dentist

A Smile for Every Age

Established in 2016, Cranbourne North Dental was conceived with the mission to deliver comprehensive and compassionate care to the local Cranbourne community. The journey leading up to the practice’s opening was challenging, and one vivid memory remains etched in our minds. On the planned opening day, despite having a celebratory event organized, the site lacked the necessary power connection. We still proceeded with our opening party, even though the clinic wasn’t ready. It turned out to be a remarkable day, thanks to the overwhelming love and support from our community.

Navigating through the stress, late nights, and weekends, we’ve not only overcome challenges but have flourished. Along this journey, we’ve forged a wonderful team of which we are immensely proud. Our deep affection for the community we serve has made the relationships we’ve built worth the blood, sweat and tears and the countless hours invested over the years.

Why Choose Us

Entrust us with your dental care

There are thousands of Dental Clinics in Melbourne and a fair number of Cranbourne Dentists, so the decision-making process is difficult. What sets our team of Cranbourne Dentists and support team apart is our exceptional talent in creating a relaxed and well-informed dental experience. At the heart of our approach lies education, aiming to empower you to become the Master of your own Smile.

We recognise the significance of transparency and communication in dental care. Merely presenting a treatment plan without thorough explanations serves no purpose. Understanding the “why” is integral, forming a cornerstone in our philosophy. Our approach goes beyond addressing current dental needs; we plan comprehensively, anticipating and preparing for potential future issues. Acknowledging the profound connection between oral health and overall well-being, we recognise that the mouth is intricately linked to the rest of the body.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a dental question on your mind? It’s likely that others have had the same queries before you! Check out our frequently asked questions below for insights. If you have a specific inquiry, don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

I’m scared of the dentist. What should I do?

You are not alone. Dental fear and anxiety just affect others as well, but we are here to help and guide you through the process. We help many nervous patients and are proud of our empathetic and caring team.
The best thing is for you to come in and have a chat with the Reception Team. Talk to them honestly about how you feel. They can book you in with the Dentist and you can arrange to just meet them for a consultation and talk about your concerns first prior to any actual treatment.
You can also bring a support person with you for the appointment and bring some headphones if you want to tune out during treatment. We play music and there is a TV to watch to help soothe your nerves. Our team is well trained to help make your dental appointment as relaxing as possible. The more you come in, the better you will start to feel, especially if you already know what treatment you are going to receive and you are familiar with the team and setting.
If you have severe anxiety surrounding dental treatment, there are options available with Sleep Dentistry (treatment under sedation) and treatment under a General Anaesthetic.

How do I choose a dentist?

Obviously we would love it if everyone came to us and we could help everyone with their smile journey. The reality is, you need to find a Dental Professional that you feel comfortable with.

Important things to check

Does the clinic offer the treatment that you are interested in?
Is the Dental Professional patient with your questions and answering them?
Are the team empathetic and keen to help you?
Do you feel like you trust them? Trust is very important and often a gut feeling.
Do they provide you a proper treatment plan and quote so you know the cost and sequencing of appointments?
What have others said about the clinic, have you checked reviews, checked with locals?
We hope that we can be all those things for you but if you are unsure, give us a call to have a chat first!

Do you take Medicare?

Unfortunately for adults, there is no Medicare coverage for dental treatment at any private dental clinic. You will need to seek Dental Treatment at a public dental clinic if you are eligible.

For children aged between 0-17 years old, if they are eligible, we bulk bill treatment under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule. If you give our team a call, they can check your child’s eligibility on the spot.
