The team at Bupa Dental Moorabbin understand how important your smile is. For over two decades, our principal dentist, Dr Mark Krasny, has been caring for people’s oral health in Moorabbin. Throughout that time, he’s assembled a team of caring professionals who are all committed to helping you keep your smile as bright and healthy as possible.
At your first visit with us, we’ll ask you to take a moment to complete a confidential medical history form while you relax in our lounge area. The information on this form helps ensure we’re aware of any pre-existing medical conditions, previous dental treatments or medication you may be taking. This sort of information helps us give you the best possible outcome with your treatment.
Your dental team will then take the time to chat with you about any initial concerns you might have with your teeth, jaw or gums. Then, we’ll conduct a comprehensive review, including any x-rays you might need.
Next, we’ll prepare a personalised treatment plan for you. We like to discuss the plan in detail to make sure you’re aware of all your available options (and any costs involved) before we start any work.
Whether you’re just after a regular preventative check-up for the family, or need help with a more complex procedure such as a dental implants*, we can tailor a solution that’s right for you.
We also offer a wide range of cosmetic dental options, including teeth whitening, bridges and crowns, as well as emergency dental care for when those accidents happen.
With an experienced team of both male and female clinicians, who have been supporting the oral health needs of Moorabbin and the surrounding community for more than 30 years, you can be confident that your family will be in trusted hands.
Your care and satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to seeing you at Bupa Dental Moorabbin soon.
