There is something reassuring about a dental practice that has been part of a community for generations. Continuity of care can make it easier for patients and families to build familiarity with their dental team and have their changing oral-health needs monitored over time.
Australia’s Top Dentists is pleased to feature Redcliffe Dental’s Australia’s Top Dentists profile, a general and family dental practice at 31 Anzac Avenue that has served the Redcliffe community since 1958.
The practice provides care for children, adults and older patients, with an emphasis on clear communication, individual treatment planning and maintaining long-term patient relationships.
About Redcliffe Dental
Redcliffe Dental is located at:
31 Anzac Avenue, Redcliffe QLD 4020
The practice has provided dental care in Redcliffe for more than six decades. What began as a smaller practice has developed into a broader dental team providing general, preventive, restorative, cosmetic, orthodontic and implant-related care.
Patients can find further information about the practice through the official Redcliffe Dental website.
The practice’s approach focuses on keeping treatment understandable and involving patients in decisions about their care. Consultations provide an opportunity to discuss concerns, available treatment options, fees and what may be involved before proceeding.
Redcliffe Dental also uses systems such as SMS and phone reminders to help patients keep track of appointments. Follow-up contact may be used after certain treatments where appropriate.
A Long-Standing Dental Practice in Redcliffe
Redcliffe Dental has been serving the local community since 1958.
That history has helped shape an approach centred on long-term relationships and continuity of care. Where possible, patients may be able to continue seeing the same dentist over time.
This can be helpful because a regular dental team can become familiar with factors such as:
- Previous dental treatment
- Existing fillings, crowns or other restorations
- Gum health
- Changes in the bite
- Oral-health risks
- Dental anxiety or treatment preferences
- Longer-term treatment plans
Continuity does not mean treatment remains the same indefinitely. Recommendations should continue to reflect current examination findings, oral health and individual circumstances.
Patients who would like to understand more about the practice’s history and approach can explore the Redcliffe Dental practice information page.

Areas of Dental Care
Redcliffe Dental provides a broad range of dental services from its Anzac Avenue clinic.
General Dentistry
General dental care at the practice includes services for maintaining, restoring and monitoring oral health.
Treatment may include:
- Dental examinations
- Professional cleaning
- Dental fillings
- Gum treatment
- Root canal treatment
- Dentures
- Tooth extractions
- Management of damaged teeth
- Preventive advice
A dental examination can help identify changes that may require monitoring or treatment, but the appropriate frequency of check-ups varies between individuals.
Patients can find more information about general dentistry at Redcliffe Dental.
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care is intended to support healthy teeth and gums and reduce avoidable dental problems where possible.
Depending on the patient, this may include:
- Routine examinations
- Professional cleaning
- Fluoride treatment
- Fissure sealants
- Gum-health monitoring
- Dietary advice
- Oral-hygiene education
- Custom mouthguards
Preventive recommendations should reflect factors such as age, dental history, decay risk, gum health and home-care habits.
Children’s Dentistry
Redcliffe Dental provides dental care for children as part of its family-focused services.
Appointments may involve:
- Checking teeth and gums
- Monitoring dental development
- Looking for signs of tooth decay
- Professional cleaning where appropriate
- Preventive advice
- Fluoride treatment where indicated
- Fissure sealants where appropriate
- Oral-hygiene education
- Custom sports mouthguards
The team aims to help children become familiar with the dental environment and adapt treatment to their age and individual needs.
Further information is available through the practice’s children’s dental check-up information.
Eligible children may also be able to access treatment through the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule, depending on current eligibility requirements.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Redcliffe Dental provides cosmetic dental options for patients who would like to discuss changes to the appearance of their teeth or smile.
Treatments available may include:
- Teeth whitening
- Composite or porcelain veneers
- Dental crowns
- Dental bridges
- Inlays and onlays
- Smile design
- Other restorative cosmetic procedures
Cosmetic treatment should not be considered in isolation from oral health.
Before recommending treatment, a dentist may need to assess:
- Tooth condition
- Gum health
- Existing restorations
- Bite
- Tooth position
- Available tooth structure
- Patient goals
- Maintenance requirements
Results vary between individuals, and not every cosmetic procedure is suitable for every patient.
The practice provides further information about its cosmetic dentistry services.
Dental Crowns and Same-Day Crown Technology
Dental crowns may be recommended when a tooth requires substantial restoration or additional structural protection.
Redcliffe Dental offers same-day crown technology for suitable cases.
Where this approach is clinically appropriate, a digital scan can be taken after the tooth is prepared. The restoration can then be digitally designed and produced at the practice before being checked and fitted.
This may allow some crowns to be completed during a single appointment rather than requiring a temporary crown and a separate fitting visit.
Not every tooth or clinical situation is appropriate for this approach.
Patients can find more information about same-day crowns at Redcliffe Dental.
Implant Dentistry
Dental implants may be considered when one or more teeth are missing.
An implant is placed in the jawbone and can be used to support an appropriate dental restoration after suitable healing and integration.
Redcliffe Dental provides implant-related options that may include:
- Single-tooth replacement
- Replacement of multiple missing teeth
- Implant-supported restorations
- Bone grafting where clinically appropriate
Dental implant treatment involves surgery and is not suitable for everyone.
Assessment may take into account:
- General and oral health
- Gum health
- Available jawbone
- Medical history
- Smoking status
- Oral hygiene
- Bite
- Location of missing teeth
- Treatment goals
Alternatives such as bridges or dentures may also need to be considered.
Patients considering this type of treatment can review the practice’s information about single and multiple dental implants.
Adult Orthodontics and Clear Aligners
Redcliffe Dental provides orthodontic options for adults, including braces and clear aligner treatment.
Orthodontic treatment may be considered for concerns involving:
- Crowded teeth
- Spacing
- Tooth position
- Certain bite relationships
The appropriate treatment depends on individual tooth position, bite, oral health, treatment complexity and patient preferences.
An assessment and appropriate diagnostic records are required before determining whether braces, aligners or another approach may be suitable.
Snoring and Sleep-Related Breathing Concerns
Redcliffe Dental also provides dental assessment and oral-appliance options relating to snoring and selected sleep-related breathing concerns.
A custom oral appliance may be considered in some cases to position the lower jaw forward during sleep.
However, snoring can have different causes, and obstructive sleep apnoea is a medical condition that requires appropriate assessment.
The practice recommends appropriate sleep assessment before oral-appliance treatment where sleep apnoea is suspected.
More information is available on the practice’s snoring and sleep apnoea information page.
TMJ Concerns and Teeth Grinding
The practice also provides assessment and management options for concerns associated with the jaw joints and teeth grinding.
Symptoms such as jaw discomfort, clicking, tooth wear or headaches can have several possible causes and should not be self-diagnosed.
Management depends on the findings from an individual assessment and may involve monitoring, behavioural advice, an oral appliance or other appropriate care.
Dental Technology at Redcliffe Dental
Technology is used at the practice to support examination, treatment planning and selected restorative procedures.
Examples include:
- Intraoral cameras
- Digital imaging
- 3D scanning
- Digital crown design
- Same-day crown production for suitable cases
Intraoral Cameras
Intraoral cameras can provide close-up images of teeth and other areas of the mouth.
These images may help the dental team document findings and explain concerns to patients more clearly.
3D Digital Scanning
A 3D scanner can create a digital representation of the teeth and bite.
Depending on the treatment, this may be used for restorative planning, orthodontic records or production of certain dental appliances.
Same-Day Restorative Technology
For selected crown cases, digital scanning and in-house production technology may allow the restoration to be designed, produced and fitted in one visit.
Technology can assist with treatment, but it does not determine clinical suitability on its own. A dentist still needs to examine the tooth and decide which restorative approach is appropriate.
Emergency Dental Care
Redcliffe Dental provides appointments for urgent dental problems and aims to see emergency patients as soon as appointment availability allows.
Reasons to seek urgent dental advice can include:
- Significant toothache
- A broken tooth
- A knocked-out tooth
- Dental trauma
- A lost restoration
- Swelling
- Sudden dental pain
The practice’s emergency dentistry information explains some of the concerns that may require prompt dental assessment.
Treatment depends on the underlying cause.
Significant facial swelling, uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing or swallowing, or serious facial trauma can require urgent medical attention as well as dental care.
Patient-Centred Treatment Planning
Redcliffe Dental places importance on listening before treatment begins.
A consultation can be used to understand:
- The patient’s main concerns
- Relevant dental and medical history
- Examination findings
- Available treatment options
- Alternatives
- Likely fees
- Appointment requirements
- Risks and limitations
- Maintenance needs
Patients are encouraged to ask questions before deciding how they would like to proceed.
This can be particularly useful for more involved treatments such as implant dentistry, orthodontics, major restorative work or cosmetic treatment.
Continuity of Care
One of the practice’s stated priorities is providing ongoing care and allowing patients to see a consistent dentist where possible.
A continuing relationship with a dental team can help clinicians monitor changes over time and understand previous treatment decisions.
It can also make appointments feel more familiar for patients who prefer knowing the dentist they will see.
Continuity of care does not remove the need for specialist referral. If a patient’s needs require care beyond the appropriate scope of the practice, referral may still be recommended.
Health Funds and Payment Options
Redcliffe Dental offers instant electronic health fund claiming through HICAPS.
The practice also lists arrangements that include:
- Preferred provider status with NIB
- Preferred provider status with Westfund
- Participation in the HCF More for Teeth program
- Bulk billing under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule for eligible children
- Zip payment options
Health fund rebates and eligibility vary according to the individual policy, treatment and applicable conditions.
Patients should confirm their expected rebate and any out-of-pocket costs before assuming that a particular treatment will be fully covered.
Payment options can also be discussed with the practice before treatment begins.
