About Us
Your local Wantirna South dentist, Diamond Dental has a fabulous team of Australian trained dentists and support staff. We accept that people have different expectations of their dentist.
Some patients have a preference for a male or female dentist. Other folks prefer the clinic to be open late nights and Saturdays. We have even been asked for both a dentist that is super quick and a dentist that takes their time. Whatever your needs, we try to accommodate everyone. The one thing we don’t budge on is QUALITY DENTAL CARE. We use the latest techniques and products together with our modern equipment and facilities.
As long standing members of the Australian Dental Association (ADA) we abide by all ADA guidelines. Our gentle nature will ensure you feel relaxed and at ease during your treatment and care.
