Seeing as a visit to the Dentist is inevitable, I'd rather go here than anywhere else. The reception & rooms are as homey and comfortable as you can get (for a Dentist) and Dr Michael Ng is extremely gentle, precise and kind. Really, that's the sort of thing you want any gum-digger day. He gave me some simple, practical advice last time I went, and it helped a lot. What more can I say? Next time you need those pearly whites attended too, go here!

The lady took a 10 second look at my teeth and then said that I had to visit an orthodontist? I came here to see a orthodontist? Not sure who she is. Paid $95 for the lady to work out how to send an email to a specialist. Waste of 30 minutes and my money!"

After a less-than-satisfying experience with Quay Street Dental, someone recommended Ti Rakau, so I went along for a check-up. Firstly, they told me I needed less fillings than Quay Street did, and no crown. They also, rather than charging me for more x-rays, suggested I get them from Quay Street and pass them along. Unfortunately, the copy Quay Street gave me was too small to be of use, so I ended up getting them done at Ti Rakau anyway later on, for $30. I went to see them again this past weekend as I was worried about a tooth that looked cracked. The dentist was reassuring and kind, and replaced a loose filling on a tooth that had been bothering me for ages while I was there. She gave me plenty of anaesthetic and told me what she was doing the whole time. She didn't try and force me into getting anything else looked at, or suggest more expensive procedures. As such, I'm more than happy to come back and get my other fillings done there - I feel they are a trustworthy, affordable practice and am happy to recommend them! They also have great hours (open late and on weekends and public holidays), with no surcharge.

But I like check ups, and scans and acupunture and doctors hands on my neck and stuff. I'm going to regret writing this I think. But, the one medical visit I absolutely do not enjoy is the dentist. I just hate the invasiveness of someone being all up in my mouth, and why, WHY would you ask me questions when you can't understand my reply?! At the beginning of last year I got a really bad toothache and dad told me to try out this new guy. Well, I expected the worst, obiously, but seriously, this was such a pain free experience it makes me question what all the other dentists were doing... Ivan is super friendly, and super intelligent. This made me relax a bit. He sat me down and explained everything that he would be doing, which prepared me mentally and left no room for surprises of the bad kind. There was of course the unpleasant sounds of drills and whatnot, but for the first time I was able to kind of ignore it and just lie there. It helps that there is a tv on the roof. Going to the dentist is never going to be great, but this was such a mellow experience i'm no longer ignoring potentially serious mouth issues just to avoid the dentist. And the extra bonus? His fee is extremely reasonable
