Your first visit in Bacchus Marsh, without the guesswork.
Maybe it's been years since your last check-up. Maybe you've just moved to Bacchus Marsh, Darley or Maddingley and haven't found a local dentist yet. Whatever brought you here, there's nothing to prepare beforehand — just book a time, and we'll take it from there, at a pace that suits you.
Mon–Sat, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM · 83 Gisborne Road, Bacchus Marsh VIC 3340. No referral needed.
There's no such thing as "too long between visits".
Some people book their first visit with us because they've just moved into the area. Others haven't seen a dentist in years and would rather not say exactly how many. Neither is a problem — we're simply glad you're here, and there's no explanation owed for the gap.
- Bring photo ID and your health fund or Medicare card if you have one — that's genuinely all you need.
- You don't need private health insurance to book or be seen.
- You won't be asked to commit to treatment on the spot — your first visit is about understanding where things stand, together.
From booking to feeling looked after.
Knowing the shape of your first visit tends to make it feel a lot less daunting.
Book online or call
Pick a day and time that suits you, and let us know if there's anything specific on your mind so we can prepare for your visit.
A relaxed first conversation
Before anything clinical happens, we talk through your dental and medical history and what's brought you in, in plain English.
A thorough, gentle examination
A full check-up, including X-rays where appropriate, so we genuinely understand your starting point rather than guessing.
Your options, explained clearly
We'll talk through what we found and what's realistic — including cost — before anything is decided. Nothing happens without you.
An unhurried first conversation
You don't have to white-knuckle your first visit back.
A difficult past experience, a fear of pain, or simply feeling embarrassed about the gap since your last visit — all genuinely common reasons people delay booking, and all things our team is used to hearing.
Your first visit is built to be explanation-first. Nothing is done to you without being talked through beforehand, and you're welcome to ask us to pause, slow down, or stop at any point — that's a normal part of the appointment, not an interruption to it. If something specific worries you, mentioning it when you book helps us prepare, but it's just as fine to bring it up once you're in the chair.
Where it's clinically appropriate, we're happy to talk through sedation options so you know what's genuinely available before deciding anything.
Sedation suitability depends on your individual health history and is only confirmed after an assessment. Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks — before proceeding, please seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner if you have any concerns.
Feeling more at ease, one step at a time
Your first check-up can start something ongoing.
Frequent Smiles is our patient rewards program — a quiet thank-you for keeping up with the hygiene visits you'd be booking anyway, not a discount grab.
Here's the short version: join Frequent Smiles after your first check-up and clean, and if teeth whitening is assessed as clinically suitable for you, your take-home whitening kit — custom-fitted trays and professional gel, valued at $360 — is complimentary. From there, attend your recommended six-monthly hygiene visits and receive complimentary whitening gel top-ups each time, for as long as your membership stays active.
There's no ongoing membership fee. The whole program simply travels alongside the preventive care visits that are already part of looking after your smile.
How it works for new patients
*Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure; results vary between individuals and a clinical assessment is required to confirm suitability. Program terms apply — see the Frequent Smiles page for full details.
Your initial consultation is complimentary.
Not every new patient is here just for a check-up. If veneers, Invisalign, dental implants or a smile makeover have quietly crossed your mind, you can book an initial consultation for these at no charge and explore your options before anything is decided.
The initial consultation is a relaxed conversation where we look, listen and talk through what's realistic for your smile. It covers the initial consultation only: treatment costs are discussed during the consultation and billed separately, and check-ups, hygiene visits and emergency appointments are charged as usual. There's no obligation to proceed and no pressure to decide on the day.
If you do decide to go ahead with something, costs and options are explained clearly, and Afterpay, National Dental Plan and SuperCare are all available to help spread the cost where eligible.
Initial consultation only, available to new and existing patients as an ongoing offer. Treatment costs are discussed during the consultation and billed separately. Individual results vary and a consultation is required to assess suitability for any cosmetic or orthodontic treatment. Any surgical or invasive procedure (such as dental implants) carries risks — before proceeding, please seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
