I'm one of those nut-jobs that loves going to the dentist. I think it's partly because I've found…read moresuch a good one. I first made an appointment here after the appeal of no gap payment on a clean and check up for anyone with health insurance. This makes the place incredible popular and insanely busy, but they still great everyone with a smile and take it all in their stride. My favourite staff member is my hygienist, Abraham, a wonderfully friendly man who is checks in with me every few minutes to make sure I'm okay and tell me how good a patient I am (although, I'm sure he says it to all his patients). The room has a wall of plants at your feet providing a pleasant outlook and there's an adjustable tv to can position overhead to distract you from having a bunch of tools and fingers in your mouth. You can't hear anything over the machines, but then it's fun to guess what they're saying on never-ending soaps such as Days of our Lives. I've just booked in for my January 2012 clean and my son's first dentist visit. I'll review again then as to how they cater for children.

I have been so very impressed with Smile Co at Norwood. As…read morewith another reviewer, finding out that a 6-month check-up and clean was free to those with private health insurance (even if Extras only), was the catalyst for me to finally go to the dentist. After 5 years. The previous visit not having even been conducted in Australia! (I was studying in Germany at the time) The staff on the phone were professional and helpful. After learning that it had been a while since my last dental visit they structured my check-up accordingly. Hygenist Amelia spent a lot of time focusing on both cleaning my teeth and giving me practical advice on teeth care. This high level of service extended to the Dentist Shayda who was also keen to not only provide a service but impart knowledge on a customer keen to learn. I wasn't surprised to learn that I needed fillings and the subsequent session for those was just as impressive (this time with Hygenist Shelley assisting Shayda). So much so that I wasn't even nervous and felt very assured of their ability to go a great job. I walked out of the dental clinic having had a very positive experience. Highly recommended and I already have booked in for my 6-month check-up.

Dr Renu Karn is very thorough in getting to know you as a patient. She asked me several times…read morethroughout my first visit if I had private health insurance. It was one of those fabulous internet offers that led me here. I had also received glossy junk mail flyers spruiking this new, flashy, heaven-on-a-stick dental surgery in town. Although my choppers are quite snazzy themselves I'm told, I was dazzled and daunted by the mega movie star grin of the blonde on this paraphernalia, and binned it. Heaven is not too far off the mark at Dental Excellence. Its whiteness is so reassuring it almost provides religious comfort. And therapists are on hand too. Of the relaxation kind. Let me explain. This dental nirvana also exudes spa-like qualities. With aroma therapy, reflexology, hand massage and wafts of relaxation music, you can retain that inner glow whilst having a root canal. Should you prefer wafts of a different kind whilst having your toothy pegs tackled, there's happy gas on tap. Keep it close for when you get the bill. The nitrous oxide won't knock you out but the bottom line sure might. Votive candles aside, the technology here is state of the art. Your jaw will (have to) drop at the intra-oral camera and digital x-ray machine. The latter takes in a complete panoramic view of your mouth. Should you prefer a more picturesque vista, the floor to ceiling windows of Dr Kahn's city rooms look over Hindmarsh Square. Under the care of dental hygienist Meg, you can turn a blind eye to what she's picking away at by availing yourself to the in-flight, sorry, in-chair entertainment. There's an LCD TV and DVD player with about 10,000 movies to choose from, so you can use Keanu as another excuse for drooling.

At the end of the day nobody likes a dentist, but I have to highly recommend this place for easy, simple and supported dentist visits every time! Thanks Riken Dental!

The practice only has two female dentists and is centrally located in Prospect. When I first went in, the girl at reception was very lovely and told me to take a set before the dental assistant would come for me. The waiting room was plentiful with magazines and a television. When I went in turns out the receptionist was the dentist and I immediately felt at ease with her friendly demeanour. She explained everything clearly as she was doing it and then explained subsequent treatment I might need and asked my permission before undertaking any treatment that day. For those who aren't the biggest fan of the dentist this would be a really great option.

Dr Shadi is your oh so not stereotypical Dentist. He's like a boy with toys - but instead of getting excited about video games, cars or guitars - he gets excited about dental equipment. On first visit to this dentist I had no idea what kind of experiments to expect on my mouth. I had always been told I had "perfect teeth." Yet upon sitting in "the chair" it seemed like by a wave of Shadi's tooth fairy wand - minus the poking and proding and shoving things in your mouth - he knew exactly what was wrong with my teeth and how to fix it. But here's the catch... He explained to me in lamens terms why I needed a filling, what to do with my funky tooth and how over a few short visits I would be sorted out in no time. Arguably this guy isn't as cheap as my childhood dentist but he also pretty obviously highlighted to me some major holes that had been looked over in the past and I felt safe in the hands of a guy who has the latest technology I have ever seen in a dentists before + a friendly, welcoming, "I'm just going to hold your mouth open for a few minutes with this shiny metal rod," attitude to boot! Caring Dentistry looses some points for cost but at the same time I would rather spend a bit more to know I am going to have a shiny set of teeth still when I'm 40!

Invest now! I am not…read morequite a dental phobic but I am anxious enough to get a squirmy tummy unlike my partner who can incredulously fall asleep in the dental chair. That ain't ever going to happen to me but last 6 monthly visit Shadi (Dr Fashka) made me laugh so much that I couldn't collect myself to open my mouth - now that is incredible. I never conceived that visiting the dentist would be hilarious or that I would ever overcome my anxiety! I originally consulted Caring Dentistry after a desperate attempt on a Saturday to find a dentist open to fix a cracked front tooth. Having been told by my dentist at the time that I would be wait listed at least a week (yeah sure -I am going to go to work looking like I've come off second best in a pub brawl) I fortunately chanced upon Caring Dentistry in my local paper's magazine. FD (former dentist) really did me a huge favour by not squeezing me in, as I was soon to find out the reason my tooth cracked was that I had the evidence of a lifetime's worth of stress induced teeth grinding - something FD had completely overlooked for 25+ years!!! A self proclaimed preventative dentist as previously cited who is passionate about dentistry and ensuring everyone has healthy teeth to the grave. He is a walking dazzlingly smiled advocate of the need to start young and maintain regularly. As difficult as this is when you figure that you are young and healthy this will pay off big time when you hit middle age as you will be reaping the financial dividends of healthy teeth and gums. As Shadi constantly reminds me (and I'm sure all patients) teeth and gums are non renewable resources and once decayed, receded, cracked or ground down there is no turning back the clock without further heavy investment. Caring Dentistry prides itself on being ...caring, informative, educational and highly professional. I only wish I had found Shadi sooner before the rot had set in!!
