Before I wrote this review I had attended United Dental clinic for the last 6 months... so my review is based on many visits. I have had various dental treatments with Karan who is the owner and main dentist . My treatments include an initial consultation with of course the "first impressions" as to whether I would continue. Since that time I have had root canal surgery, various teeth repaired, a "deep cycle clean" from a separate girl that works there and finalising today, a tooth implant with new ceramic crown fitted (incisor front tooth that had been absent for some while.) . I must say I am basically very happy with the whole dental practice for the following reasons. I am not the sort of person that will have the wool pulled over my eyes and will say something critical if it needs to be said .. as I have done with other dentists previously !!.One dentist I had previously would run between two patients at one time .. without changing gloves !!! I always ask how much something will cost in advance so do not be scared to ask. The prices are fair and reasonable from my experience. ! .For example I paid ,$5,000 for the whole Front tooth dental implant with new ceramic crown. . Looks great and I can eat an apple now !! Many dentist with older technology will charge more !Some dentists don’t do implants and will redirect you to someone with a vested interest so this was a major benefit to have it all in one place. Was originally quoted up to $6500 if I needed a bone graft but that wasn't needed. That is honesty, I believe. The initial first impressions of the surgery is that it is clean, hygienic and modern and Karan uses the latest digital technology on everything .The secretary - Tenay is very friendly (Loves dogs -- bonus to my wife and I !) and all the other staff are genuine and friendly too. So often a "job is just a job" . I initially pointed out to Karan that I ask a lot of questions and expect answers . I previously told another dentist in another practice to take a walk ! when he basically said "open your mouth .. let me do the work don’t ask questions and pay me !!!"
Karan answered every question with enthusiasm and indeed kept me informed all the way through everything... for which I am very grateful .His gentle kind lovely wife Megan is often there and a pleasure to talk to. Ask her about her recent trip to India where she wrestled a 3 metre king Cobra snake in the toilet and threw it out the window!! Yes, you can have a laugh with everyone at the surgery too.!! I have never had to wait for more than a few minutes upon arrival where as at most other dentists one has to wait ages and will fit as many people in as they can and rush the job. Its also nice to lay back and watch a David Attenborough documentary on the LCD TV above ( over 1000 alternative shows/movies to watch, I believe).
THANKS for the good honest competent professional practice and people in it.
