I've been here for 2 extractions and 5 fillings so far. Dr Nish is very professional. He is good at explaining things, very polite, kind and welcoming. I would 100% recommend this dentist for anyone unsure or uneasy about trips to the dentist. Overall a good dentist.

I've been a patient of Nish for 4+ years. My gums and teeth were a mess. He saved what he could and since then I have had regular checkups and cleaning and my gums have improved immensely with my remaining teeth much more secure. The team are friendly and professional and I encourage those with significant dental issues to make an appointment and get it sorted.

New to this practice and saw Dr Mac Dean for an Oral Health Check during the holiday break, same day appointment to my call. He was very gentle and informative of future care. Follow up with a visit to Dental hygienist Angela today for a descale and polish. I can honestly say that it was the best descale and polish that I have ever had. She was very gentle and takes her time. This was no quick uncomfortable descale that I have always had in the past and no bleeding gums either. Highly recommended especially for anxious patients like me.

Response from the owner a month agoHello Sheila, thank you for your positive feedback. Will pass this onto Dr Mac and Andrea.

My husband had an appointment with South City Dental to have a tooth extraction. First time there. We were greeted with a happy 'good morning' from the receptionist and made to feel at ease. Dr Mac was the dentist and carried out the procedure . His nurse assisting was great. Excellent team work ๐Ÿ‘ Would highly recommend South City Dental. Excellent professional service and very caring. Thanks again ๐Ÿ˜Š

One star is generous... They wanted $1450 for a root canal due to a sore tooth. I was smart enough to go for a second opinion at Victoria Dentists. They went over and above checking my jaw alignment and bite, my top tooth was pushing too hard on my bottom tooth. I needed a slight grinding of my top tooth (1mm) and haven't had any pain since, all for the cost of $145. Needless to say, I won't be back to South City dental. Maybe it's how they are trained and lack of experience. My dentist looked 12 years old.

Clinic response ():

Response from the owner 5 months agoThank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Weโ€™re sorry to hear you were not satisfied with your visit. When you attended, we discussed a range of options which included monitoring to see if symptoms settled naturally, root canal treatment, or extraction and implant replacement if the tooth did not recover. Weโ€™re pleased to hear your discomfort has improved after the tooth was adjusted out of occlusion. Our clinicians are fully qualified and registered dentists who follow evidence-based diagnostic and treatment guidelines. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to ensure we provide clear explanations of all possible causes and treatment options. Kind regards, Dr Mac Dean and The South City Dental Team
