Why choose us?

These are our core values:

Equality

We believe that every patient should be provided with all options and have the right to make informed decisions. We are proud to be transparent with our factual explanations and quotes, no matter the cost or commitment.

Efficiency

Your time is important to us. We strive to be on time and utilise the latest equipment to provide the best and most efficient treatment. For example, we prevent extra visits and discomfort by completing dental crowns in one visit.

Excellency

We aim for excellence in every aspect of dentistry and patient care. We place a special focus on training our team to continue to improve our skills and knowledge, and always strive to become better every day.

Empathy

We understand that discussing concerns, options and costs can be overwhelming, so we always approach them with kindness and compassion. We don't use sales tactics or dental jargons and treat all our patients with respect.

"I saw Dr Hess for my same day crowns and was so happy with the results and how easy the entire process was. My daughter has also completed orthodontics with Dr Hess and we now both have the smiles we always wanted!"

"Dr Hess put all my nerves at ease instantly as I was greeted with the biggest smile and such a warm welcoming introduction. Each step of my surgical wisdom tooth extraction was explained to me in great detail prior, and the entire procedure was completely painless! If you're looking for an experienced dentist who will make you feel comfortable and who always has the patient's best interests at heart, then Dr Hess is the dentist for you!"
