Data-driven insights based on 913 customer reviews collected between 2007 and 2026, ABS Census data, and 9 trust signal responses
Highett has an unusually strong field of dentists — five of the 25 servicing the area have earned a recent Word of Mouth Service Award (20% award rate), with 913 customer reviews and an average rating of 4.9 stars.
Across reviewed dentist jobs in Highett, $300 is the median price — most jobs come in between $200 and $300 — 20% above the Victorian average. Nearby: Hampton East ($300), Sandringham ($300), Bentleigh ($300). Prices have risen 100% since 2010 (from $150 to $300 median), averaging 6.7% per year. If you've received a quote above $300, it lands in the top 25% locally — reasonable for more complex work, worth questioning for routine jobs.
Household incomes in Highett ($2,119/week) run above the $1,748/week national median, and so does dentist pricing — 20% above the Victorian average. Comparing quotes can still find value within that band.

How we calculate the Local Service Score: We combine two sources of data: first-party data collected directly by Word of Mouth — verified customer reviews, customer-reported pricing, post-service trust-signal responses, and service awards — with suburb-level population and housing data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics 2021 Census. The score measures how well Highett is served for dentists, reflecting the depth of choice, quality of service, and value for money available to residents compared to other suburbs across Australia. See our Local Service Score methodology for data sources, update frequency, and quality guardrails.
