Welcome to our Practice

Welcome to the dental practice of Melbourne Smile Clinic.

Our priority is to put our patients' needs first and making sure you have a comfortable experience in a professional and caring environment.

Your First Visit

On your first visit, we aim to obtain a thorough overview of your general oral health. That includes the teeth, gums and soft tissues in the mouth. We will carefully examine for the presence of decay and gum disease and other oral pathology such as oral cancers. 

Photographs are taken to allow visualisation of any dental issues and better understanding of the treatment needed. They are also necessary for treatment planning and smile design in cosmetic dentistry.

Radiographs (X-rays) are recommended on your first visit to ensure a complete and thorough diagnosis of your oral condition is obtained.

Our focus is on achieving optimal health, function and aesthetics with a thorough and gentle approach.

• We have a strong belief in prevention. We want our patients to be in control of their oral health. A healthy mouth and teeth can be maintained for life if the right approach is maintained. 
• We aim to provide the most appropriate care to each patient  using current dental technology and science while maintaining a high standard of practice and making sure each patient’s needs is taken into consideration.
• We bring a considered and individualised approach to our cosmetic dentistry work. Health is prioritised and we aim to restore the dentition to a natural look. 
• Dentistry need not be a traumatic experience for anyone and we aim to make our patients feel comfortable and looked after throughout their treatment.

It is extremely important for us to keep abreast of new advances in dental technology, science and standards. This is ensured by regular attendance of educational seminars and lectures by Dr Yew and the team.

WE HAVE BEEN AWARDED FULL ACCREDITATION AGAINST THE NSQHS STANDARDS FOR INTRODUCTORY DENTAL PRACTICE ACCREDITATION.
