Fantastic experience: Thank you , recommending
Fantastic experience: I have had the most amazing dentists and dental assistants for the past three years, all very professional always smiling, super friendly and gentle. Cannot recommend high enough So grateful that I found them and for the work that I have had done, Thank you
Fantastic experience: I recently had a dental implant at Artsmile on the Gold Coast, and I honestly couldn’t be more grateful. From the very first appointment, Christian Dunker made what I expected to be a stressful experience feel calm, reassuring, and completely professional. As someone who has carried a fear of dentists for many years, I was amazed by how relaxed I felt throughout the entire process. Christian’s gentle nature, steady hands, and attention to every detail truly put me at ease — something I never thought possible in a dental chair. The level of care and precision in his work is something I’ll always appreciate, and I’m genuinely so thankful for the result. A big thank you as well to the whole Artsmile team — your warm, welcoming attitude made every visit feel a little easier. I can’t recommend this clinic enough.
Fantastic experience: Outstanding Experience with Dr. Cristian Dunker at ArtSmiles Dental! I recently completed a dental bridge and implant procedure at ArtSmiles Dental with Dr. Cristian Dunker, and I honestly couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From start to finish, the care, professionalism, and attention to detail were exceptional. Dr. Dunker took the time to walk me through every step of the process, answering all my questions with patience and clarity. He made sure I was comfortable and informed throughout the procedure, which really helped put me at ease. The results speak for themselves. My dental bridge and implant was made of very high quality materials, looks incredibly natural and fits perfectly, and the implant feels and looks just like a real tooth – stable, comfortable, and functional. I can smile, eat, and speak with complete confidence again, and that’s truly priceless. The entire team at ArtSmiles was warm, welcoming, and highly skilled. I’m beyond grateful for the quality of care I received and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Dr. Dunker and his team to anyone whether you need dental bridge, implants, or any kind of dental work.
Fantastic experience: Omg I love this dentist. Artsmiles is the place to go if u want lovely natural looking teeth. They treat you with the most respect and caring about you. My teeth are amazing and I love them . My dentist was Dr Darren Wang go see him he is amazing.. all of the dentist there are great and caring. The girls at the desk are beautiful and speak polite and caring. Just go see them and find out for yourself you will thank me for it later lol. Thanks Artsmiles for my beautiful amazing teeth.
Fantastic experience: First time I had been to this dentist. My issue was fixed immediately. I can highly recommend ArtSmiles as they are extremely professional, friendly and caring. Having a phobia about dentists I felt totally comfortable and relaxed from the moment I walked in until the moment I left. Definitely a 5 star rating.
Fantastic experience: Patient kind and very professional Christian Dunker is a perfectionist. His girls are amazing and always there for you.
Fantastic experience: all the staff at art smiles, are very professional, and more then welcoming, that they make you feel just at home. I am fully satisfied, and very happy with the results of the dental work carried out by darren. I would highly recommend art smiles to anybody. Thankyou heaps to art smiles, Anton.
Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Dr Jessica Ko more highly! I have followed her all the way from Brisbane and would drive anywhere in Queensland for this woman. She is gentle but fast, I never feel like I’m drowning and her friendly reassuring smile helps calm the nerves of those like me who don’t like going to the dentist if you want the best but also the most reassuring Jess is the dentist for you :) x
Fantastic experience: Needed new front tooth for my disabled son. Dentist Jessica .Receptionists organisation and calmness , so much compassion and understanding. Son fell off bed 1am smashed his tooth. We are from Sydney. Cannot believe the service, professionalism and the communication. GOLD.
Fantastic experience: I am so impressed with Artsmiles. VERY impressed. I have all my general dental done there which is always done with extreme care and never rushed. Dr Dunker designed a very tricky implant for me and it is an absolute success. He is a perfectionist. I would call him a “tooth artist”, and is very gentle and caring. I am also a member of the Artsmiles Club which gives me even more discount on the practice’s already reasonable prices. I can honestly say that everyone there, from the girls at the reception desk to whoever has you in their chair, are so friendly and compassionate. I’m a bit of a stress bag when it comes to dental visits, but I can honestly say I almost enjoy my visits to the dentist now! Thumbs up for Artsmiles at Southport.
Fantastic experience: Dr Christian is a magician. He gave me back my smile. He explained every process in detail and nothing was a problem. He dropped everything to assist me when I had a small emergency. Seriously consider Art Smiles if you are considering your smile make over or other dental work done. Intact the whole team are fantastic.
Thank you for the 5-star review Brenda! See you again soon!
Fantastic experience: I recently had dental implants and dentures fitted at ArtSmiles, and couldn't be more impressed with the care and professionalism I received. Dr. Darren Wang was exceptional from start to finis - calm, thorough and incredibly skilled. He took the time to explain each step of the process clearly, which helped me put my mind at ease. The results have exceeded my expectations. The implants feel strong and secure and the dentures fit perfectly - they look and feel completely natural. Dr. Wang and his team were friendly, supportive and made me feel truly looked after throughout the entire journey. I'm grateful for their work and recommend ArtSmiles to anyone considering dental implants or dentures. Truly outstanding care!
Fantastic experience: Darren is the best dentist on the coast. Passionate, genuine and informative.
Thank you for the warm words Luke! We're honored to be part of your journey. See you soon
Fantastic experience: The staff and Dr Darren were truly amazing. They all cared for my daughter with dignity, thoughtfulness and respect. They all went above and beyond for my daughter. Anyone thinking of getting an all in 4 should definitely go to Art Smiles and see Dr Darren Wang. I can’t thank them all enough. My daughter has a new lease on life.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're honored to be part of your daughter's journey. See you two soon!!
Fantastic experience: I have just had some very extensive cosmetic dental treatment done over 5 months, my dental anxiety was extreme, hence why my teeth had gotten into such a bad way which is why I required so much work. From the moment I walked into ArtSmiles I felt comfortable, the receptionists, Courtney and Bruna, were amazing, so helpful, so friendly, so reassuring, then onto my dentist, what can I say, this man is without a doubt the best dentist I have ever had, all of my treatment has been first class, his attention to detail, his commitment to perfection and they way he has always made me feel at ease, If you are thinking of doing this or putting it off, please go and see Dr Dunker, he also has the most amazing dental nurse too, Camilla, she has helped me so much, been there for me every step of the way, thankyou everyone involved in my treatment, I can honestly say that now, I have absolutely zero dental anxiety, and I have amazing new teeth and smile. 10/10 ArtSmiles
Thank you so much Helen for your glowing review. So honored and glad to be part of your journey. See you soon!
Fantastic experience: At the end of Covid I was actively looking for a new dentist as a couple of root canals and an extraction/crown were well and truly overdue for attention. A very good friend of mine recommended Artsmiles in Southport and in particular, their boss Christian . I still cannot believe how masterfully and professionally Christian and his amazing staff handled these 3 very serious and overdue issues with empathy and painless professionalism . It is for these reasons that I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Artsmiles and Christian to anybody . Camron Rossiter
Thank you Camron for all your kind words! We're so happy to be with you through your journey. Hope to see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: So happy with my new smile! Best dental experience I've ever had!
Thank you for your kind words Heather! Hope to see you soon!
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Art Smiles! My experience was fantastic! The clinic is equipped with modern technology, and the entire team is both professional and welcoming. Dr. Christian is wonderful, he’s calm, explains every step of the process, and ensures you fully understand each procedure. My implant procedure was a success, with no pain at all. I’m stoked with my implants, they look natural and amazing!
Thank you Cyntia for your kind words. We're glad to be part of your journey and happy to hear you've had a great experience! See you Soon!
Negative experience: The worst experience i have ever had in life regarding dental treatment! I am a dentist too and i expected to be treated with at least some dignity. The resin on my front tooth broke, and I desperately messaged a group of Brazilian dentists asking for recommendations for a specialist in resin work on front teeth with an emphasis on occlusion. Dr. Christian said he was that professional, so I trusted his word. I explained to him that my resin had broken, and that I was missing contact on the palatal side, which was causing discomfort and making me worried that the adjacent tooth might suffer some trauma. Since I’m a professional in the field, I spoke to him using technical terms to make my expectations clear and to explain my main concern. He told me I had high expectations and that his patients were not demanding. I then asked if he thought it was a matter of expectation or knowledge. He was always very arrogant and rolling his eyes. He told me that there was no way to fix the resin without significantly wear down my tooth. I asked why, because it’s not necessary to wear the tooth down a lot to apply composite nowadays, and I asked him to try to minimize the wear. He said he would try. At this point, I asked if he preferred to think over my case carefully before we started the treatment so he could assess whether he was willing and able to resolve my issue. He began generating the quote, and in addition to the resin, he included the price for adjusting my retainer. I asked him why, and he said that if I didn’t want to pay for the adjustment, I should pay for the consultation instead. Extremely unethical and unprofessional. I should have left, but since I was desperate with my front tooth broken, I decided to give him a vote of confidence. When I got home, I realized he hadn’t polished the palatal side properly, and the next day the resin started coming off in pieces. I scheduled another appointment with him to fix the resin that was breaking and not polished. At this new appointment, he made me wait for 50 minutes, only to tell me he didn’t have time to fix what had broken. He wanted to grind down one of my natural teeth to avoid the problem of the lost contact due to the resin breaking. I tried to explain to him that this didn’t make sense, and that the ideal solution would be to add a thin layer of resin since it had broken. He kept rolling his eyes, didn’t look at me, and treated me in a very disrespectful and undignified manner. He treated me like a dog, told me to sit down, and when I asked him to talk to me first because the way he was treating me wasn’t right, he said he wouldn’t fix my tooth anymore and simply kicked me out of the room. I left the clinic with my tooth in worse shape than when I arrived. I’m now missing occlusal contact and a protrusive guide on the tooth where he did the resin, and I’m at risk of developing an endodontic problem on the adjacent tooth. I’m afraid to chew and break the rest of the resin. What a regret! Never go to this dentist.
Dear Sabrina,
I would like to begin by acknowledging that the events of yesterday were my responsibility. During our initial consultation, when I listened to your concerns, I felt strongly that we should not do the treatment. You mentioned several times that you had previously needed to redo the case, and your grinding was causing chips in the filling. However, despite using loupes, I could not see any visible issues. I assured you that the original filling had been well executed, with only minor imperfections that would be difficult to notice, even by the most observant individuals.
After I explained this, you requested that I redo the cosmetic filling, and I proceeded with the treatment. The appointment itself went smoothly, and you were satisfied with the result. You requested polishing and adjustments, which I carried out thoroughly. In your words, you said: "It's perfect, thanks," and mentioned that the anatomy and colour match were ideal.
However, the next day, you contacted me via WhatsApp, mentioning that the back of the tooth felt rough, despite the extensive polishing I had carried out. You returned to the practice with a new concern, stating that the back of the filling had been reduced too much and that you would like it adjusted. When I checked with articulating paper, I confirmed that everything was normal and that both the anterior teeth were touching properly. I then suggested a minor adjustment to the neighbouring tooth, which would have taken only a few seconds and removed a mere 0.05mm of enamel – something that would not cause any harm.
At that point, you declined the adjustment, stating that you did not want the neighbouring tooth altered, even though it was a standard procedure. Feeling that it was best not to continue, I decided to terminate the consultation and refund the money you had paid, despite the procedure being carried out correctly and leaving the filling in a better state than before. Ultimately, I felt it was in the best interest of both of us not to continue this professional relationship.
I am confident that the filling was well done and will last, especially if you use a mouthguard at night to protect it. In hindsight, I realise that I could have trusted my instincts more at the start when I sensed that there were unrealistic expectations. I should have been more firm in recommending against redoing the treatment from the outset.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
Cristian Dunker
Fantastic experience: Dr Dunker is amazing, as are all the wonderful staff at ArtSmiles. Unlike any other dentist before, they listened and made me comfortable through every step of getting multiple restorations completed. Cannot recommend enough for those like me with a (previous) anxiety about going to the dentist!
Thank you Michael for your kind words! We're so happy to have made your visits comfortable and anxiety-free! Hope to see you soon!
Fantastic experience: Excellent. No pain. Such a professional job. Dr Wang explained everything to me, always checking to make sure I was alright. Very professional and friendly service, most up-to-date equipment. My bridge looks amazing you would never know that they weren't my own teeth. Dr Wang is truly a lovely person. Would highly recommend him. THANK YOU Dr Wang.
Thank you for your kind words Susan. We're honored to be part of your journey to a better smile! See you soon!
Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Darren Wang for a veneer, and I couldn't be happier with the results. He was incredibly kind, easy to talk to, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. His expertise is clear – he’s truly an artist when it comes to color matching. The veneer looks so natural, it blends perfectly like a real tooth. Highly recommend Dr. Wang for anyone looking for a top-notch dental experience!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're honored to be part of your journey to make your smile beautiful. See you soon! ♥️
Fantastic experience: Friendly, Cooperative and Knowledgeable
Thank you for your review! Pleasure to be part of your journey :)
Fantastic experience: Dr. Dunker and the Art Smiles team have not just changed my smile, they’ve changed my life and given me a smile. Needing a full mouth reconstruction and from start to finish of the process, it was completely painless. 3x wisdoms removed and bone ground back and no pain, no swelling - nothing! Not to mention the short time I wanted it completed in & Dr. Dunker made it happen & the result speaks for itself. I cannot thank Dr. Dunker & team enough for helping me be able to live life again. Thank you Art Smiles
Hi Ashlee, thank you so much for the kind words. We are so honored to be part of your journey to a better and brighter smile. You truly look beautiful!
Fantastic experience: - The experience with my recent dental treatment for veneers was exceptional. From the moment I entered the office, I was greeted by a professional and caring staff. The dentist demonstrated a high level of expertise, ensuring that I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. - I was particularly impressed by the dentist's flexibility in tailoring the treatment to my specific needs. Their polite demeanor and attentiveness made a significant difference, allowing me to voice any concerns freely. This level of care truly reflects their commitment to patient satisfaction. - The results of the veneer procedure exceeded my expectations. I am genuinely thrilled with my new smile and would wholeheartedly recommend this dental practice to anyone considering similar treatments. For these reasons, I am delighted to give my experience a five-star rating. Best Dentist on the Gold Coast on every level without a doubt. I thank the google search engines for leading me to ArtSmiles. Dr Christian is one of a kind any patient will be fortunate to have him as their Dentist.
Thank you so much for giving us a glowing review. We really appreciate that you've shared your experience and we're honored to be with you through your journey. See you soon! ❤️
Fantastic experience: I’ve spent over 11 years being horrified of going to the dentist, thinking they’ve never seen anything as bad, searching for the perfect dentist that would be gentle as my teeth hurt too.. THEN… i came across Artsmiles in Southport. It was meant to be, they’re all so kind. They genuinely care about your life and the impact your teeth have on your life. I’ve never met people that care so much and have the biggest heart towards literal strangers. I’m a nervous bloody wreck and they accepted me. They thrive to see their patients at their happiest. I highly recommend this dentist, I will forever tell people this is the best dentist around, don’t go elsewhere. I can promise you, they can’t do as good as this, it’s the people who make this dentist. Can not appreciate this team more !!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and trusting us with your dental struggles. We loved working with you through your journey! Hope to see you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Today i got 2 crowns done with Dr Cristian Dunker, I am so extremely thrilled with the end result. It has been a life time dream to have this done. The entire process from start to finish was well explained and such a professional calming environment. I felt Dr Cristian Dunker really took his time to explain the process and I felt so comfortable straight away. I will be back for clean and check ups regularly. I truly do highly recommend
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're honored to be part of accomplishing your dream crowns
Fantastic experience: I will never look back. The best decision I’ve ever made was to come to Cristian at Artsmiles, Southport, for help and advice on achieving a beautiful, confident smile again. I couldn’t be more proud of my smile now, thanks to Cristian and his team. Thankyou so much.
Thank you for your kind words Maxine. This means so much to us and we're so humbled and honored to be part of your journey. See you soon!
Negative experience: I needed a crown so I did my research and came across ArtSmiles. Their website looked professional and they guaranteed their products which gave me confidence to book an appointment. I expected skilled care and quality work, but ended having the worst dental experience of my life. I was assigned a dentist whom I assumed was experienced with crown installations—unfortunately, I was wrong. The entire process was nothing short of a nightmare. The dentist struggled repeatedly to fit the crown, yanking it out and trying again while the assistant pulled my mouth one way and the dentist yanked it the other. I was in excruciating pain, on the edge of screaming, but felt trapped as I’d already invested $1600. To make matters worse, I prefer to wear my own sunglasses, but this dentist refused, saying she wouldn’t be responsible if they were damaged. Instead, I had to wear their provided glasses, which were rediculously uncomfortable, adding to my misery. Fast forward two years and one month, the crown has crumbled in my mouth, half of it broke off. I was in disbelief that it was my crown, so I sought a second opinion from another dentist, who confirmed it was my crown and that the crown was cracked at the base and the installation was of poor quality. The crown would need to be completely replaced. For context, I’ve had a crown on the other side of my mouth for 15 years, without issues—clearly something has gone horribly wrong, with the one from ArtSmiles. When I contacted ArtSmiles, to address this, I was met with frustration. They smugly informed me that their guarantee only lasts for two years and since I was 1 month past that period, they refused to do anything. ONE MONTH out of warranty and they wouldn’t take any responsibility for their shoddy work. This treatment has been appalling, from start to finish. Not only was the procedure, barbaric and unprofessional, but the aftercare— or complete lack therof— proves that ArtSmiles doesn’t stand by their work. I’ve been telling everyone I know about this horrible experience and will continue to warn others to steer clear of this shady business.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. At ArtSmiles, we take all patient experiences seriously and value the opportunity to address your concerns privately and, now, publicly.
A month after your procedure which occurred two years ago, we had reached out for routine checking and cleaning. However, we promptly received your response and desire to no longer be contacted. This is on top of any impertinence that our kind and professional staff has experienced and continue to experience from you.
Hence, we take this opportunity to thank you, nonetheless, as we are able to exercise professional policies such as the right of refusal and to stand against unmannerly behaviours.
Fantastic experience: Staff are always lovely and professional

Hi Craig, Thank you so much for leaving a review. We look forward to providing you again with expert dental care in the future!
Fantastic experience: I have to be the worst patient a dentist can have! My anxiety level was to the top. I needed calming medication prior to my first appointment. Right from the beginning Dr. Christian Dunker listened to my fear & responded appropriately by giving me numbing gel before he came near me with a needle. From then on I was able to cope easily without pain. He had a big job with lots of surgery needed before he could do several implants planned & teeth had to be removed first. I had the best experience today. No pain whatsoever. We are half way through the process but each visit I approach with less apprehension. He's my kind of dentist & I have experienced a few. Ann Next appointment. Updated today Thursday after a sleepless night even though my head told me there will be no pain my nerves didn't agree. Today was actually attaching my 2 implants to the 'feet' already inserted previously plus a difficult eye tooth filling which is what I dreaded this time. Fitting the implants was easy & with the help of my stress squeeze toy, numbing gel & my calming essential oil I managed to get through the needle penetration & the drill which is what I hate most but Dr Christian used the gentle less noisy drill to help me through my anxiety & I now have 3 new teeth to help me enjoy chewing some whole food instead of soups. I'm looking forward to dinner tonight. 26/09/24 further update I had 3 teeth remove today in preparation for my next implant. 2 teeth had infection at the roots. it's been awhile since my last implant so my stress level was up again even though my mind told me I had survived this previously. Two hours in the chair. It was a big job. No problem. Dr. Christian used numbing gel which works. Yes, I did feel post procedure discomfort. I was given a script for an antibiotic plus pain relief, cold pack & swabs to pack the area & instructions to eat cold, soft food to assist healing. I slept well & now feeling better I don't think I'll ever be a perfect patient, but it's good to know Dr. Christian is young enough to be around for a long as I might need him Ann
Hi Ann, thank you so much for your glowing review. We can't express how grateful we are when you gave us your trust. Our hearts are full!
Fantastic experience: Professionelle and friendly
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend the team at ArtSmiles highly enough. Every touch point is designed to put you at ease, feel safe and relaxed. As a well known Dento-phobe, the way each and every team member authentically cares about the patient is tangibly evident and such a blessing. I had a rather tricky extraction performed today with a cyst from under the dead tooth removed. It was hairy but Dr Darren Wang was a verifiable legend and performed the surgery will skill, precision and no pain to me. I’m sure that procedure will end up in a journal somewhere! I’m so sorry I cant recall the dental nurses name as she was incredible too! You know who you are. Thank you to you both for the many years of study and dedication and practice that went into becoming the superstars you are and executing a dental ballet today. Congratulations Dr Christian in creating such a wonderful home for talented professionals. Will sing your praises far and wide. Looking forward to commencing my mouth restoration with you and showing off my pearly whites to all and sundry when we’re done.
Hi Sari! We're so happy to read your glowing review. This really means so much to us, especially because we were able to walk with you through your delicate situation and that you've chosen us to be with you during the whole experience!

Fantastic experience: I felt very relaxed and the whole procedure was excellent.
Fantastic experience: Dr Christian and Dr Darren, are the kind of dentists you look forward to seeing! I never ever thought I'd say that. Apart, from being the best in their field, it makes me feel more confident about attending appointments, knowing they are gentle and caring also.
Fantastic experience: I went to Artsmiles to as I didn’t like my smile. Darren was extremely informative and gave a great alternative to what I originally wanted. The result is amazing, I am so glad that I seen him. Artsmiles was extremely prompt and professional. i can’t say enough to praise the team there!
Fantastic experience: Amazing dentist, Actually the whole team there is amazing, I had one of the best dental cleanings I’ve ever had there, the smile club is definitely a bonus

Fantastic experience: Meticulous attention to detail and a true gentlemen with a very kind and sincere approach towards his patients is how I would summarise my experience with Dr Christian Dunker and the Art Smiles team. I have just finalised a full mouth restoration with Dr Dunker and the results are beyond expectations both from an aesthetic standpoint and the level of professionalism and confidence I felt with Dr Dunkers dentistry from start to finish was worth every cent. The level of oral work required to achieve my desired result seemed unrealistic without having to go through a lengthy orthodontic procedure which I was not wanting to do, Dr Dunker provided me a solution which was not only more on my timeline but without any corner cutting or mistruths to get me to commit. Dr Dunker and his team have provided me a life changing service and I could not recommend his work enough to anyone looking to transform their smile.
Fantastic experience: Atendimento exemplar, tanto das secretarias como dos demais funcionários. A Dra. Cristine Volpato é uma profissional muito qualificada e uma pessoa muito querida. Resolveu meu problema de forma rápida e muito cuidadosa. Caso eu tenha que retornar para a clínica, com certeza optarei por ser atendido por ela. Exemplary service, both from the secretaries and the other staff. Dr. Cristine Volpato is a highly qualified professional and a very dear person. She resolved my issue quickly and very carefully. If I have to return to the clinic, I will definitely choose to be attended by her.
Fantastic experience: Great visit. All staff are happy and friendly The procedure was conducted with consideration to my requests and empathy not often you actually enjoy the dentist visit. Thanks
Fantastic experience: Thank you ArtSmiles Team for the humanized care: Dr. Darren Wang, Dental assistant Denise, Courtney and Bruna at the reception.
Fantastic experience: I would recommend them so much they did a lovely job
Fantastic experience: Dr Cristian Dunker is very friendly and professional. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Very satisfied. Dr Darren Yang was skilful, knowledgeable and friendly. Everything went as planned, with good explanations. A very good experience.
Fantastic experience: Dr Christian Dunker and staff are most professional. I had extensive surgery and implants over the past 12 months. There was no pain or at least very little when teeth were extracted. Very pleased with my smile after the last visit today.
Fantastic experience: Prior to today’s appointment at Art Smiles, I was nervous & anxious about having 2 x implants. During the entire procedure, Dr Darren Wang and his assistant, Denise, were focussed, made me feel comfortable, relaxed & kept checking that I was OK during the procedure. The headphones were fully charged for me to use to watch tv because I don’t like to hear any of the instruments eg drilling, suctioning, metal instruments in my mouth etc. & the distraction of the headphones/tv helped me to concentrate on a funny tv show. I am ALWAYS greeted & welcomed warmly by the reception staff, Dr Darren Wang, Dental Assistant/s etc. The technology that this dental clinic uses is phenomenally impressive, first-class, cutting edge, modern & innovative. I highly recommend ArtSmiles Dental Clinic if you are needing and/or looking for an amazing team, outstanding technology, require significant dental procedures & like to be treated with the utmost respect, empathy, attentiveness, kindness & understanding.
Fantastic experience: Very Very professional, patient comfort (pian relief top priority) Team of 3 working with control and consideration toward each other. 5 stars are not enough for this team. Christians team

Fantastic experience: Dr Bashour - A fine dentist I came here, after losing all my lower back teeth, 10 years of eating with my front teeth. I am so glad to have met Dr Bashour, a very talented dentist specialist in dental implants. , attention to detail. Dr Bashour has impeccable attention to detail. He implanted 2 teeth on each side of my back teeth & I feel fantastic, for now at least. I'll check back after I've eaten a few things. I'm checking back, I'm so happy, the implants are worth every cent, no more eating with front teeth, no more giggling false teeth whilst chewing. I really believe Dr Bashour is one of the best dental implant surgeon in Queensland.
Fantastic experience: I heard about ArtSmiles from a man out west. He told me about the amazing work Dr Cristian Dunker and his team can do. Having always been insecure about my teeth, I booked a free 1 hour consult with ArtSmiles immediately. The team were friendly honest and made me feel so comfortable. Dr Dunker presented my options to me and I opted for a full mouth makeover. The ladies at the front desk helped me arrange accessing my super to fund the project and three visits later I have a celebrity smile and all the confidence in the world that comes with it. I have complete confidence in the team at ArtSmiles and recommend them to all.

I had an emergency procedure due to severe gum pain and swollen gums 4 days before my wedding, Dr. Christian did not hesitate to help me and underwent the emergency procedure straight away. He explained in detail the dental process prior to procedure and provided me a medical book for me to feel more comfortable and reassured. He also sent a message 2 consecutive days after the procedure via ArtSmile receptionist to check if I am okay to ensure that I am pain free and wished me a happy smile on my wedding day.

Negative experience: Not very good. I was examined by the dentist he was rough & he tapped on my front bridge following that he fractured the bridge after it had been restorated by my another dentist. Not a great experience at all.
Dear Geoff,
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your taking the time to share your experience with us.
We have consulted with Dr. Dunker regarding your appointment, and we understand that you had visited our clinic for a consultation to discuss replacing a loose bridge. During the consultation, Dr. Dunker only examined your mouth, and no procedures were executed.
We apologize for any misunderstanding and regret that you may have had a different expectation for your appointment. We understand that the situation is unfortunate, but please note that as a consultation appointment, no repair work was scheduled to take place.
We value your feedback and will take it into consideration as we strive to improve our services for all of our patients. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if there is anything else we can do to help.
