Fantastic experience: Thank you Dr. Stephen Lee for the amazing work you've done on my braces. While the process took some time, as expected, the results are absolutely worth it! I could not be happier with how everything turned out. You've truly given me a dazzling smile, and I've been smiling ever since. Not only do I love the way my teeth look, but my confidence has soared thanks to your expertise and care throughout this journey. You've made such a positive impact on both my appearance and my overall sense of self, and for that, I am incredibly grateful. Thank you again for everything – I appreciate your dedication, skill, and patience. I'm thrilled with the results! Warm regards, Maricel

Fantastic experience: Dr. Stephen Lee should be teaching dentistry in my opinion. There are a lot of things other dentists could learn from him. I’ve seen a lot of dentists over my lifetime for myself and my children and he is absolutely the best. There is no pain, he is very gifted when giving that injection we all dread. He isn’t judgemental, is approachable and cares. Just wish, I’d found him sooner.

Gsxr Hawker 1 year ago

Negative experience: My husband has the worst dental experience, with one of the dentist here . He went to get his tooth pulled out and the dentist broke the tooth while trying to pull it out, he burned his lip with one of the tools and slipped with a instrument which resulted in the instrument at the back of his mouth. After 2 hours he still couldn’t get the rest of the tooth out. My husband had to come back another day so a senior dentist could attempt to get it out. The second time he went the dentist DR Lee was very professional and managed to do the job in 10 minutes. So if you are deciding to go there make sure it’s Dr Lee that you see or don’t go there!

Anita Bertola 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a new dentist run here fast. Extremely professional and accommodating twice now had to go in with emergencies and slotted in. My experience with both dentists have been unbelievably great and would highly recommend actually no I don’t because I may not get in lol. Truly unbelievable and so nice. Can’t thank them enough for their care and help so if you are after a great dentist look no further

Positive experience: Dental nurses on phone and reception here was very good which is why I came here in first place to them ill give 5 stars. i didn't feel enough time was taken to explain things clearly specially for a anxious patient ,specially when I did teeth clean after care and what to expect was not explained. Which ended up making my teeth feel more sensitive.. That's why I never came again didn't feel that ill be looked after well for any other tratment. Not sure if doc was having a bad day as other reviews here seems good.

Fantastic experience: I went in to get my wisdom teeth removed and Dr.Lee was amazing! He was so professional and gave me a thorough explanation of everything he was doing. He provided quotes before the procedure and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process and it was the most pain free experience and at a very reasonable price. I can’t recommend Dr. Lee from dental gallery enough!

Shane Liu 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Having been to many dentists and an orthodontist, I can happily say that Dr Lee was by far the best. Throughout the past year or so, I have gotten my braces done here and he has been nothing but kind, helpful and has always had my best interests in mind. From personal experiences, I highly recommend Craigieburn Dental Gallery to anyone who needs a usual checkup or is interested in having braces done with outstanding end results.

Catherine Pirritano 3 years ago

Negative experience: Unless you are seeing Stephen Lee avoid anyone else. I had a tooth removed Friday 10th June 2022 which put me in hospital with an infection on Saturday. My face is still swollen and I am still in a lot of pain . Strong antibiotics and still no relief.

Peter Polis 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Before I came to Dr. Stephen Lee, I was to shy to show off my smile. I had started my braces journey since September 2019 and he has made the whole process easy and explained everything perfectly in details, after 3 years I’ve got to say teeth are looking straighter than ever. I have been to many dentists around the northern suburbs and I’ve got to say this one tops them all. I definitely 100% recommend coming here if you want to leave the dentist satisfied.

Ashlee Dunn 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I got my braces done at Craigieburn Dental Gallery by Dr Stephen Lee from October 2020-April 2022. He made the process from wisdom teeth removal all the way to getting my braces off and retainers on so easy. I felt well informed the entire time and had no issues at any of my appointments despite my massive fear of the dentist. Would recommend.

Kaur Amrinder 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been to Dr.Stephen lee for my wisdom tooth removal n i had great experience. He was so quick n procedure was hardly painful even though it was a surgical procedure. From his way of working you can judge his knowledge and experience, which is excellent. Before i was bit confused whether to go to the oral surgeon or get it done from the dentist as it was not the normal extraction n need to be done surgically but Dr.Stephen lee is as good as surgeon. Thanks

Thanks for your review. We are sorry that you did not have a good experience.

You have only consented for a basic clean which unfortunately would not be able to treat all your dental issues. You did not give us consent to do a proper examination.

Nevertheless our dentist respected your choice and did her best with just a basic clean.

Our dentists always quote treatment upfront and will never pressure patients to accept any treatment.

Barbara Downs 4 years ago

Positive experience: I have been going to see Dr Stephen Lee for the past few years now and every time he has explained what procedures he was going to do. I found Dr Stephen to be very calm and professional in what he does. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a dentist, and the price wasn't that bad either.

Highly recommended

Esam Bahro 4 years ago

Negative experience: i don't like the way they deal with the patient, because there is a hiddeing fee ( consultations fee 40$), they will charge you, if you will treat you teeth there or not . you have to pay you treatment plus the consultation fee. this is mean if the doctor will say any thing that become a consultation and they will charge you a 40 $ for it . in fact that it should be a part from the doctor's job .... i don't recommend this clinic and any clinic working in the same way.

Craigieburn Dental Gallery
Craigieburn Dental Gallery

Thank you for your feedback Esam.

There is definitely no such thing as “hidden fee” in our clinic.

First of all you were quoted $40 consultation + treatment when you called to book the appointment. You accepted and therefore we made the booking.

Today once you have arrived at our clinic our dentist quoted you again before any treatment this appointment would cost $40 + treatment again. However today somehow you disagree to pay anything.

Therefore our dentist was happy to just let you leave without charge despite the fact that you have already taken an appointment slot which we could have given to other patients.

FCB 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went in for extraction of all 4 of my wisdom teeth. I previously had seen many dentists - all of which were not confident in removing them in clinic or were very expensive. Dr Stephen at Craigieburn provided excellent service - great communication and very quick and efficient procedure. Also gave straight forward and easy to understand care for after the extraction day. I felt at ease knowing he was very experienced and knew what he was talking about. Staff were also very nice and I loved the flexibility of interest free payment options. I highly recommend Craigieburn Dental Gallery

Fantastic experience: If you are scared of the Dentist do not hesitate at all to go to the Dental Gallery i am petrified of the Dentist and would only go if it was absolutely necessary I went to the Dentist Gallery for a filling and OMG what and amazing pain free experience i had. Stephen is absolutely awesome he understood my fear and talked me through the process. I have now been going there for a couple of years which was a total shock to me to actually go back its now to the point that if I chip or lose a filling I am there the next day I can not recommend them enough dont let your teeth go and don't live with the pain I promise you that you will not regret it Thank you so much Stephen for giving me the confidence not to be scared to go to the Dentist you are absolutely awesome

Mel Yavuzcan 8 years ago

Negative experience: Never been to such a rough dentist in my life! I went in for wisdom teeth extraction that were meant to be "routine". The local anaesthetic didn't work effectively hence the procedure was ceased as i was feeling pain when the tooth was beginning to come out. My face was swollen like a basketball and had pain in my throat all the way down to my neck for 2 weeks. Went and saw an amazing surgeon and I don't have the slightest pain or swelling. Go figure!

Craigieburn Dental Gallery
Craigieburn Dental Gallery

Thanks for you review Mel. As you mentioned we could not begin the treatment as local anesthetic was not effective on you. Your wisdom teeth was removed by another surgeon under general anesthetic as you requested.

For patients who are nervous general anesthetic will definitely be a better recommended option. We do a lot of impacted wisdom teeth removals and most people do fine under local anesthetic. However some patients do prefer to have the procedure done under sedation or general anesthetics which are also the options we offer. However the choice of local anesthetic was made at the beginning.

We are glad to hear that you are happy with the surgeon we work with whom we referred you to see.

Kimmy Yang 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: It was my impacted wisdom teeth that first brought me to Dr Lee. Dentists at other clinic initially referred me to somewhere towards the city which was quite inconvenient for me but luckily I found out Dr Lee does impacted wisdom teeth here at Craigieburn. Although having them removed was something I never look forward to Dr Lee carry out the procedure very gently and I did not feel any pain while he was working on my wisdom teeth. He mentioned before the procedure that I may get swelling but that did not happen neither, my recovery was speedy and uneventful. Overall it was definitely a 5 stars experience.

Willie Chang 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I first went to Craigieburn Dental Gallery expecting a root canal treatment, Dr Lee was very honest in telling me that only a filling was needed. Since then I have been going to this clinic regularly. The thing that impresses me most is Dr Lee never up sell me anything, always give me options and I never feel pressured. Treatment he carried out is always of high standard.

Didem Varsan 9 years ago

Negative experience: I wouldnt even give 1 star but unfortunately that is not an option. I am extremely upset, horrified and will never go back to this clinic again. Yes they may be great people however Dr.Lee had no belief in anything i said. I had 4 injections of local anesthetic for my wisdom removal,in which he didnt believe i wasnt numb after the second- he said i was too anxious. He did try and give motivation stating im doing well but the removal was horrific, side of my mouth torn. Dr.Lee was more worried about cleaning his glasses then giving me proper aftercare advice, i had excruciating pain 5 days post the operation went back and explained that i feel as though its infection and dry socket he laughed and said its not a dry socket, didnt even take an xray and stuck a gauze of clove oil in there saying ill still treat it like one( prior to this i asked if clove was a good idea to put on and he said no) 5 days later im still in pain so i went to another dentist ( who i should've gone to in the first place)he only needed to jab me once to completely numb my face, he took an xray which revealed a dry socket!!! And gunk stuck in the socket and also the incision made if he were 2mm off he wouldve cut my nerve .Dr.Lee i think you need to start listening to your patients not undermine them, you are dealing with a very important part of the human body.I may not be a dentist but i am educated enough to read journal articles on dentistry. I believe in second chances hence why i came back to you for the check up , but boy was i wrong to even step a foot in there. - ( in response to your response : please re read my review. Dr.lee tried operating after the second injection so i dont know what youre on about 3 injections.He treated it without cleaning out the tooth! Nevermind. You guys are just lucky and so am i that i dont have lingual nerve damage, dr lee was going to refer me to a specialist if the pain continued which it did but another dentist fixed the problem).

Craigieburn Dental Gallery
Craigieburn Dental Gallery

Thanks for your feedback Didem, we are sorry to hear about your experience. Just a few facts we want to state:

- you mentioned 2 mm near the nerve. Study shows where the incision was on the gum has an average distance of more than 21mm to the nerve. So we are not sure how cutting the nerve, in your case, was even remotely possible?
- what our clinic use to treat dry socket is a dentist use only product called ALVOGYL and not clove oil. In fact our clinic never stock clove oil.
- we take INFECTION CONTROL very seriously. We not only disinfect between patients but a lot of time during the appointment. For example, a single drop of contaminant/blood on the dentist glasses will prompt us to disinfect promptly.

- good that you are referencing to the dental journal articles. Dry socket is unrelated to the dentist and studies show that it tends to occur more in difficult extractions, females, lower molars and smokers. In your case 3 of the 4 risk factors are present.
- dry socket cannot be diagnosed with X-rays alone. It is based on clinic symptoms, appearance of soft tissue. We try to minimize radiation unless we have to, that is why we don't take X-rays mindlessly. However as you stated, Dr Lee still provided dry socket treatment regardless on the day you returned.
- if local aesthetic is needed to treat dry socket, only the surrounding gum needs to be numbed and yes, 1 shot will be sufficient.
- extraction of a wisdom tooth however requires us blocking 3 main nerves, so more than 1 injections are needed. Mind you though if we are performing a filling on the wisdom tooth instead of extracting it than only 1 injection is needed.

We agree that having wisdom teeth removal is a nervous experience :-) That is why in challenging surgical cases we will always do a 1 week follow up. Any post op issues, regardless whether they are dry sockets or not, we will always get patient back on the same day, even it means dentist needs to stay behind.

Fantastic experience: I normally never write reviews but felt compelled to write about my experience at Craigieburn Dental Gallery. I highly recommend Dr Stephen Lee and his team to anyone who has a fear of going to the dentist. Due to a very bad experiences with other dentists over the years, I was so frightened to go that I did not visit a dentist for over 9 years. In January, a tooth fracture left me no choice but to find a dentist. I reviewed many dental practices, as I was looking for one that would be understanding of extremely nervous patients and be non judgmental about my lack of recent dental care. I found this with Stephen and his team. They provided me with exactly what I needed: time taken to listen to my fears, understanding, excellent care and COMPASSION. Stephen has just completed a couse of dental work to address my fractured tooth and my long overdue dental needs and I cannot believe the positive experience I have had going to the dentist! I am now on my way to routine 6 monthly check ups, and feel very proud that I took the first steps and contacted this clinic, and found a team who truly cared about me as an individual, and have helped me overcome my fears. I cannot thank Stephen and the team enough.

Thanks for your feedback. We searched through our entire patient database in the last 10 years and do not have anyone matching the name Nadz Mahz. This is not the first time someone not our patients leaving a negative review.
We appreciate fair play with our competitors.
Once again thanks for your time.

Fantastic experience: Having skipped the dentist for 7 years I was more afraid than ever going back. I was pleasantly surprised. I saw Dr Stephen Lee and I was put at ease from the start. I had lots to get done. In 2 visits over 6 weeks everything was done and my teeth look and feel better than ever. I know I will have no hesitation going back in 6 months for my check up and thanks to Dr Lee and his patience and understanding I think I've finally got over my dental phobia for good. I highly recommend Craigieburn Dental Gallery.

Fantastic experience: For the past month I have been accompanying my sister to her appointments with Dr Steven. My sister has always been extremely scared of dentists (due to a bad experience) and actually never went back to one. As a result she now required extensive dental treatment. On the day of her first appointment she was so anxious and nervous, Dr Steven set her at ease from the moment she walked in, he was very understanding, caring and kind. Dr Steven has done an awesome job, my sister's confidence has been restored and she is no longer frightened. Everything was 100%...the service, the dental work, the price and the rest of the team...fantastic. Would not hesitate in recommending Dr Steven!
