Awake, Asleep, or Anywhere In Between
Maybe you’re dealing with a dental emergency at 2 AM, or you need surgery that makes your stomach flip just thinking about it. Perhaps you’re so anxious that staying awake during treatment feels impossible, or you need intricate crown work that demands surgical precision.
Whatever brought you here—whether it’s panic, pain, or just needing something done right—we’ve built our entire practice around meeting you where you are. No judgment, no rushing, just the kind of care that actually makes sense for real people with real fears.
Sleep Dentistry
With sleep dentistry, you stay deeply relaxed or asleep while we take care of your dental treatment. This service helps you feel calm and comfortable, reduces stress and pain, and lets you complete even complex procedures without anxiety.
Emergency Dentist
When dental pain or injury strikes, we provide urgent care to relieve discomfort and prevent further damage. Our emergency dental service helps you feel supported, safe, and treated promptly, so you can get back to everyday life quickly.
Crown Lengthening
We gently reshape your gum and bone to expose more of your tooth for restoration or aesthetics. Crown lengthening improves your smile and allows us to fit crowns or bridges securely, helping you regain function and confidence.
Dental Surgery
We guide you through surgical procedures with care, precision, and support. From extractions to complex treatments, dental surgery helps restore your oral health while keeping you comfortable and informed every step of the way.
Dental Photography
We capture detailed images of your teeth and smile to plan treatments accurately and track progress. Dental photography ensures your results are precise, predictable, and tailored to your unique smile and facial features.
Dental Periodontics
We focus on your gums and supporting structures to prevent and treat disease. Periodontal care helps you maintain healthy teeth, reduce inflammation, and protect your smile long-term, keeping your mouth functional, comfortable, and confident.
The Process
Our process ensures every patient receives personalised attention, comprehensive treatment, and ongoing support. From your first consultation through your complete recovery, we prioritise your comfort, understanding, and long-term oral health success. This is what ‘care beyond the chair’ truly means.
Step 1
Comprehensive Discovery & Examination
Your specialist care at Unley Park Dental begins with a thorough assessment—including digital X-rays, detailed imaging, and comprehensive oral health screening—to identify your current dental status and specific concerns. We'll discuss your medical history, symptoms, and treatment goals so we can create a personalised specialist care plan tailored to your unique needs.
Step 2
Pre-Treatment Prep
Next, we create your personal treatment plan. Once seated in our comfortable environment, we'll explain our findings in plain English and collaborate with you on the best path forward. Whether it's emergency care, periodontal treatment, surgical procedures, or sleep dentistry options, you'll understand exactly what we're recommending and why it's the most effective approach for your situation.
Step 3
Treatment Process
Then we proceed with your care using techniques designed around your comfort, not despite it. From gentle cleanings and precise fillings to protective treatments, we combine clinical excellence with compassionate understanding of your comfort. Each procedure is performed with attention to both your physical comfort and peace of mind.
Step 4
Aftercare & Post-treatment Evaluation
After treatment, we provide personalised guidance for maintaining your results and preventing future issues. We'll schedule appropriate follow-ups, offer practical home care advice, and ensure you have our support long after you leave. Our care philosophy means we're genuinely invested in your ongoing oral health success.
Health Insurers
We work with leading health insurers to make accessing quality dental care straightforward. Simply bring your health fund details, and we'll handle the rest—letting you focus on your oral health, not the paperwork.
Why Unley Park Dental for your Specialist treatment?
Because our care goes beyond the chair.
And because you want a dentist who combines experience and innovation. We deliver thoughtful, individualised treatments with the latest technology—always guided by your comfort, needs, and goals.
We don’t follow the standard script. We plan deeper, communicate better, and aim higher. Our process is led by genuine relationships, not conveyor-belt care. From our technology to our tone, everything we do is about delivering a more refined experience.
Each member of our team brings a specialist skillset and a shared philosophy: excellence with empathy. Our dentists are not only highly qualified—they’re deeply committed to your comfort and results.
We built our practice on a simple belief: dental care should heal more than mouths. It should restore confidence, reduce anxiety, and respect the person behind every smile.
Our team brings decades of experience to cosmetic dentistry, and we use that to create the best personalised experience, from taking time to understand your story, creating solutions that fit your life, and celebrating small wins with you.
Our advanced technology helps—a lot— but empathy drives everything. We remember being patients too. We know the vulnerability of the dental chair, the anxiety of unknown procedures, and the relief when someone genuinely cares. That understanding shapes every service, from quick teeth whitenings to complex smile makeovers.
Patients tell us they never expected to feel comfortable at a dentist. Some even say they enjoy visits. We can’t promise miracles, but we can promise genuine care that considers who you are, not just what you need.

FAQ
What is the difference between a specialist and a dentist?A general dentist provides routine care, including check-ups, fillings, and basic restorations. A specialist has advanced training in a specific area of dentistry, such as periodontics, oral surgery, or prosthodontics, allowing them to treat complex cases that require expert knowledge and precision.
Why would a dentist refer you to a specialist?Dentists refer patients to specialists when a case requires advanced skills, technology, or expertise beyond general dentistry. This ensures you receive the most effective and safe treatment for complex issues, such as severe gum disease, complicated extractions, or advanced cosmetic and restorative needs.
Why do you need a specialist?You may need a specialist if your dental condition is complex, has not responded to standard treatment, or requires precision care. Specialists provide targeted solutions, improve outcomes, and help prevent complications, ensuring your oral health is restored efficiently and safely.
