I mean who is going to give a dentist 5 stars? That being said, I am exceedingly happy with this dentist. Previously I had attended a factor dentist through my private health cover but this dentist was recommended to me at my work so I jumped ship. Personally I find it hard to be positive about any trip to the dentist, I mean there is bound to be some level of pain and/or discomfort and then a hefty bill at the end. Today I had the follow-up cleaning and it cost $ 190 so I am not sure if that is expensive/cheap/reasonable, but hopefully giving the price you can work that out for yourself. The staff are excellent and my dentist(Graham) was thorough and considerate. Having friendly and compassionate dentists, hygienists and staff is undoubtably an asset(even a point of differentiation?). Overall, not as bad as you expect the dentist to be and I would send my friends and family — so glad I have changed to AR-Dent
