    I've been attending Essential Dental Paddington Central twice a year for over 8 years and wouldn't…read morego anywhere else. The calmness and quiet atmosphere of the waiting room puts everyone at ease. The entire dental team are very kind and thorough. They don't overcharge like other dentists and you even get a free toothbrush and toothpaste each time. Highly recommended!

    It exists! A dental group that doesn't judge!…read more After visiting Essential Dental Group a few times (turns out my teeth have more than a few fillings) I was whole-heartedly ready to recommend this to others, and have done so. The business was recommended to me by my doctor, whose advice I trust. I actually decided to drop in to Essential Dental before my first booking, since I was in the area. When I asked for an initial booking, I expected to hear "Well, we have a space opening up in about 5 weeks..." and instead got, "What time? This afternoon?" There's always an opening at Essential Dental, but I can attest this has nothing to do with the quality of work here. Hidden away on the top floor at Paddington Central, even some staff working in the larger complex had to be informed by me that the place actually existed. Not only have I been able to book appointments at the last minute, they're also fine about cancelling appointments, too (which I don't like to do to them because they're so damn nice. Even if they are dentists.) And the appointments are very, very cheap relative to that of other dentists. The dentist himself is aware that people like to watch their money, so he'll give you several options for immediate action if you're cash-strapped during a particular appointment (or want to chicken out of another filling). Or, if money is no object, he'll fix up whatever you want then and there. I knew I had a few issues with the molars up the back when I rocked up here. I expected the usual dental professional's overreaction to their state, which looks fine to me but has had other dentists practically fainting. At Essential Dental, the dentist just nodded indifferently at my molars and went ahead with the job. No judgment whatsoever. Unbelievable. He didn't even accuse me of not flossing enough, or tell me the way I'm brushing my teeth is wrong. I'm still stunned. Get your teeth done here. I hate having to go to the dentist - the drill is surely intended as a torture instrument (the film Marathon Man proves this). But if you gotta go, go here.

    No difference between holistic and ordinary dentists. Their policy is to drill, fill and bill. Last…read morevisit was horrific and my child couldn't eat for 2 days because she was afraid that her teeth would get rotten. That was huge stress for me as I always fought to gain weight with her (she is still a tiny, fragile girl). Here is the whole story: After we entered the room, I politely asked the dentists if she could use a camera to check my daughter's teeth. She was very surprised and asked me for a reason. I said that, in my opinion, poking teeth with a dental probe could potentially leave microscopic holes and cause the need for more fillings in 6 months' time. The dentist said that it was absolutely impossible. She stated as well that she couldn't do a thorough checkup due to my requirement. I asked her again if she would be so kind as to use the camera (Diagnocam) for early detection of tooth decay only. Diagnocam was the main reason why we came such a long distance to Dent8.Finally, she agreed, but was visibly shaken to the point that her hands were trembling during my daughter's examination. It looked like I touched the deepest secret of dentistry, that caused the dentist's reaction. During the visit my 12 year old heard from the dentist (and her assistant) that her teeth would fall out, that she would have an infection and suffer from toothache if she left her teeth untreated.I realise that my daughter has decay in her 2 molars and they must be sorted out, sooner or later. However, this is my child, and as her mother, I would like to decide how and when she needs that treatment. Of course, I always take advice from the experts, professional and qualified staff and I'm very grateful for all tips. My daughter was threatened with losing her teeth and traumatised by comments from the dentist and her assistant. At the end of the visit, I apologised to both ladies for any inconvenience that my request caused. The dentist stated that in her 42 years' career had never had a client like me. I thought to myself that a person with such a huge amount of experience should have examined and diagnosed teeth even without looking (I'm joking now). To be honest, it was never my intention to offend anyone. I'm an easy going person with a big dose of tolerance and understanding of others` views (or attitudes, behaviours etc.), but sometimes certain things must be said. If you're a caring parent, avoid this place called Dent8. They don't care about patients at all, but money. If you want to save your child from stress try "no drill dentistry" (not the best option for those who avoid fluoride) in Sunshine Coast practice, Diagnocam is also available there. They are kind and make no fuss about parents' requirements. Also, look for information about "arrested cavity" and you will know that cavities or decay can be healed and teeth have the ability to regrow and rebuild themselves (not just coconut or sesame seed oil pulling can do that but many other remedies). In the end, Weston price book is highly recommended too. PS: I wrote twice about the whole incident to the owner of the practice but was totally ignored. Ewelina W.

I am currently in the USA and found a holistic dentist to put the crown back on. They X-rayed the tooth that is underneath the crown and examined the tooth and said it was healthy and not a shred of mercury amalgam. But here is the kicker; the dentist told me to tell Dr. David that the crown was beautiful work! You can't get a better referral than that...right? Another dentist praising your work and wanting you, the dentist, to know they were impressed with your work!! The crown came off so clean and was in perfect condition. Before the dentist glued it on she tried it on and struggled to get it back off, I mean really struggled. So not sure how it came off in the first place...LOL. Also, the tooth underneath was not worse for wear having endured 4 days of exposure. I didn't chew on that side of course but there was no sensitivity. I had a lot of work done with David as my mouth was full of mercury. I have nothing but praise for his work and chairside manner. He is not hard on the eye either!
