We provide Dental Fillings, with tooth-coloured materials, the composite is a mixture of plastic material and glass particles. This substance is increasingly more preferable to amalgams as the main dental filling material. It is tooth-coloured and has a chemical bond to the tooth structure. It is suitable for both front and back teeth, and its properties are getting better as more research and innovations are invested in the area.
Damaged or missing teeth affect more than just your confidence, they can also cause prolonged discomfort and even lead to health problems if left untreated. So the sooner you receive professional care from our dental centre, the better you will feel and the sooner you can start showing your smile again.
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to develop; because of this there is often insufficient room for them to develop properly in the mouth. So for a large majority of people, it creates a number of complications such as discomfort and even gum infections in certain cases; since they are more difficult to clean.
Missing several teeth or even one is enough to seriously affect your quality of life. Tasks that were once effortless including chewing and even speaking gradually become more difficult. Now with advanced dental restorative procedures widely available, there is no reason to continue living in discomfort.
Having badly damaged or missing teeth can have a serious impact on your life. The absolute worst thing you could do is not immediately see a dentist, as these conditions can worsen if left untreated. Thanks to advancements in restorative procedures, such conditions can be remedied. Illawarra Dental Centre offers a full range of cosmetic restorative procedures that deliver healthier smiles including dental implants.

I had a mouth splint made 2 months ago by Doctor Tran to stop my snoring and it works perfectly. It’s custom made for my mouth and is designed to bring the bottom jaw forward a few millimeters which stops the snoring. It took a few weeks to get used to wearing but now my wife is happy.
Thanks from David

My partner had his full top teeth removed for dentures, we got there for the appointment and the dentures were not ready after 8 weeks, we went back later that day ,so dentures were rushed to be made, Dr Tan didn't give any pain killers just antibiotics, 4 days later my partner still can't eat and is in pain, Dr Tan didn't want to know, the dentures don't fit right and all Dr Tan can say is they need fitting, untrue, they were made in a rush and they need doing properly.i have pictures to prove he is a butchered his gums.
3 weeks later and we have gone back as they still don't fit, I have never

I was very hesitant to go to any dentist, I did my research first and ends up going to Dr. Tran's clinic because of all the good reviews. Definitely an amazing dentist, he sorted out a complicated extraction that was started by his associate dentist, who is very nice as well. Dr. Tran is very gentle and caring to his patients. Second visit today, he explained everything that needs to be done to my teeth and giving me options. Dental nurses and receptionist are all nice and accommodating as well. This will be my permanent dentist for sure.

Took my mum - twice. First time was for jaw pain and the second time for a scale and clean. The first time was bad, but just to make sure my impression of Dr Minh wasn't a once off the first time, we went a second time. Dismissive, rude and does not care what the patient has to say. Probably a good dentist, but definitely not taking my mum back.

I went to Illawarra Dental Centre today for the first time with an emergency extraction and saw Doctor Minh Tran. This was the most painless experience at any dentist that I have ever encountered. I was put at great ease as everything was explained to me that was going to happen. The procedure went well and I will return in the future for any dental work that I require.

Lived in Ballajurra 12 years ago and found this Wonderful vietnamese dentist
Moved to Hamersley 4 years later and kept going back for another 6 years
Now moved to Carine and still go out my way to see him and still 2 years later keep going back as his practice has only gotten better and more modern to the point they can create their own crowns on the spot.
The staff and friendly and always remind you 2 weeks in advance of appointment and dental hygienist is awesome.
Well done and i will probably be a life long customer.
