Saints Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: It was a very professional experience, Staff and dentist are helpful and friendly.
Thank you Elly
Fantastic experience: I had a tooth removed by Dr Dutt and the whole experience was great. He and his wonderful team were really kind and made me feel comfortable the entire time. Everything was explained clearly, and it was much easier than I expected. Super gentle and caring. I definitely recommend this clinic!
Thanks a lot Mick for your kind words
Negative experience: Really disappointed with the visit today at Saints Dental in Salisbury..We live in southern suburbs..Mr Dutt didn't even bother to check my wife tooth,throughly, strongly suggested Us to their recommended endo dontist specialist in Modbury for root canal treatment,which is around $3 k plus.Then their treatment will cost us around $1500 as well..My wife just got cavity in the tooth, needed cleaning and filling that,s it..Her tooth X-ray copy not even given to us..And they charged my wife $195 for a drama check up..What a crap services???they think we are fools..I will never recommend my family and friends to Saints Dental Salisbury..What a joke happened to us today.... We booked the appointment for the dental cavity not for just the appointment to get the check up. We clearly mentioned in the form and at the appointment when we made the call. We were not given the complete information even upon requesting that we need the xray report via email no one has even provided that as it was promised, after the appointment at the reception they will email us immediately which they didn't. Secondly we asked them if they can link us and provide the referral to the Endodontist in southern suburb instead of going back to nnort suburb and we were told that they cannot do that either because they are only linked to the atwEndodontist in Modbury which is clearly shows that they are just want all their patients to go to a specialis. We are not happy and that's not the service what we have expected not expected
Hi Ripin ,
The radiograph and other records have been emailed to the specialist and your review shows that everything was clearly explained to you including the treatment and the associated costs. The radiograph will be emailed to you and would have been done if it was requested .We refer complicated to specialist in the best interest of the patient . Seeing a dentist routinely is the only way to avoid costly treatment.
Thank you .

Thank you Bijil
Negative experience: Just like to say the marketing for the dentist is on point owner replied instantly instead of managing the dental practice, unfortunately unless you have private health or are willing to fork out 1000's the service is about as good as what the Cows get before slaughter.... Absolutely gutted pain unbearable and left in limbo on new years eve...
Thank you for your review but only $67 was charged for the appointment and patient instructions were followed as and they were given .It will be difficult to understand what actually happened when you did not attend the appointment.
We have CCTV in all surgeries and the reception so every interaction with the patient and treatment is recorded and referred to , if needed .
Patient’s personal review has been responded to with details and we respond to every review whether it’s positive or negative .
Negative experience: Personally a shocking experience, no literally in shock need Ambos, tooth extraction gone wrong no medication given no advice just left to go into shock I hospital now
Thank you John .
You were referred back for treatment to SA Dental as per protocol,as soon as you instructed to discontinue treatment ,in spite of being informed that it can be completed but needs more time and records sent over to them .
We try and help patients with EDS form even though we haven’t seen them before and some treatment needs specialist management or multiple visits .Thanks again and apologies for any inconvenience .
Fantastic experience: My wife is extremely happy with her new smile and the falsies fit perfectly. So easy to get in and quick to make. Wife says friendly and honest dentist too and I think my wife looks better now too.
Thanks Michael

Thank you Suzana
Negative experience: Booked an appointment at Saints dental as I had broken a filling. It was easy to get in, i managed to get an appointment the next day. Which was great because I needed to get my tooth fixed. Staff were friendly and professional and the premises were clean and tidy. However I was charged $575 for my 30 min appointment to drill out my broken filling and replace with a new one. With advice that I should in future spend a further $1250 on an Onlay cap for that tooth. Incredibly overpriced. I have never been charged so much for one filling. I have no intention of ever returning purely based on the exorbitant price I was charged.
Thank you for your review Kate .
The cost was for limited exam , single X-ray and a complicated 3 surface filling and since the tooth was compromised due to the chip , a full coverage restoration was advised for the long term .
We only do treatment once the quote is approved by the patient and advise possible options with costs for them to make an informed decision.
Fantastic experience: Very happy and very good service
Thank you Robert
Fantastic experience: Awesomeness results Professional and caring staff Affordable
Thank you
Fantastic experience: First time client at Saints Dental. Was greeted by lovely staff, very clean clinic. was attended to by Dutt and his assistant who put me at ease and non judgmental of my teeth care. Was given a quote for work to be done which was great. Would recommend this clinic for dental works. Very happy with friendly service received.
Thank you Harry
Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional service as always
Thank you Mandy
Fantastic experience: I hadn't been to a dentist for a very long time (1974) so I wasn't sure what to expect . Thankfully, I had a good experience. I had broken the back out of one of my teeth , they gave me some options and I opted for a filling. It has worked a treat. Great job
Thank you Peter
Negative experience: Absolutely in shock, I went to the clinic and should have done more research which I will own that. I confirmed for partial denture and veneers. Once I got home my partner looked into the cost and turned out saints dental for veneers were over double the price of three other local dentists this along with double cost for hygiene and clean. I am mortified such a large difference for same service it’s robbery. Definitely do your homework price is ridiculous
Thanks for your feedback Robert . We don’t do any treatment without first making a comprehensive plan and providing a detailed quote . There is a difference in patient fees between preferred provider dental practices and independent dental practices due to the health funds controlling the fees of their network practices . The same
preferred provider dental practices charge more from patients not from their preferred health fund while we are an independent dental practice and our fees reflects the
actual cost of running our business and not sure how that can be taken up as robbery.
Fantastic experience: Very caring and thorough. They always let me know the price before they undertake any work, which is not always the case with other dentists that I've seen in the past. There's never any judgement about how well you've been caring for your teeth too.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Excellent Dentist recommend highly
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Nice friendly accommodating service today. Very helpful Thank you
Thank you Betty
Negative experience: Not bad dentures are very lose though ,,,had to take them else where to get fixed
Hi , we don’t remember seeing a patient with this name . Was it made for you ? Nor do we have a patient complaining of a loose denture which we would have gladly assessed and fixed . Thanks
Fantastic experience: Friendly, easy to deal with.
Thank you Sharon
Fantastic experience: I was glad to be early for my first appointment because i literally believe i left my mind body and soul in the awesome massage chair located in waiting area. The second best part was having a sweet soothing voice whisper in your ear, only two more to go. It was so pleasant, im back tomorrow.
Thank you Sonya
Fantastic experience: Friendly professional service

Thank you Steve
Fantastic experience: very good service very up front and really trying to get me good results within the time frame i was hoping for
Thank you Jonathon
Positive experience: The dental nurse Caitlyn was very lovely and helped me make decisions as I was very anxious. However it was much more expensive than I was quoted elsewhere. The centre was clean and new, it would probably be a better fit for people who don't have dental phobia and don't have to worry to much about the cost of treatments.
Thank you Yung for your review
Fantastic experience: Friendly, welcoming staff. I felt at ease from start to finish as I was kept informed through out the procedure. Thank you

Thank you Rosalie
Fantastic experience: Lovely beautiful helpful and caring
Thank you Michelle
Positive experience: Staff were bubbly and friendly, the service was great, very good dentistry and happy with the filling that was done...... So far anyway. Only draw back was the cost of the service, it wasn't a cheap fix but have been quoted 33% less for further work at another dentist and as the cost of living is on the rise any saving is good.
Thanks Karl , glad that you liked the service .
There is a difference in patient fees between preferred health fund provider dental practice and an independent dental practice like ours due to the restrictive contracts the preferred provider dental practices have to sign to become the part of the preferred provider network . The same dental practices charge more from patients who don’t have the preferred health fund policy while our fees reflects our true cost of running the business and is same for everyone.
Fantastic experience: Very happy started getting things done first at appointment staff friendly an professional
Thanks Leslie .
Fantastic experience: I came there 1st time today kamieka who greeted me made me feel very comfortable and calm as I suffer depression. Then escorted me to the room to get teeth checked Dr Nikhil Dutt was very gentle and kind. I couldn't go thru with getting all teeth checked as I had abit of a panic attack but they treated me with kindness. The ladies at the desk were very polite also I will be going back to this dentist highly recommended :)
Thank you Shaz

Fantastic experience: I was so nervous going in but was well looked after a great group of people. Thankyou.
Thanks a lot Margaret
Negative experience: If I could give half a star I would
Thanks a lot for your review Maddi but don’t think we deserve a low rating for providing subsidised treatment under the SA Dental Emergency Dental Scheme . We could not have provided multiple treatment with a single EDS form nor we can offer free dental treatment being a privately owned practice depending on patient fees for running the day to day operations .
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff with helpful information and options
Thank you Stephen
Fantastic experience: Friendly and good work

Fantastic experience: Warm and very professional staff
Thank you Emelda
Negative experience: Visited around a year ago as a new patient for a checkup, clean and to have an assessment for a replacement night mouthguard as my existing one was damaged. I wanted the same type of mouth guard as my damaged one but the dentist refused and I felt pressured to get the one he was recommending despite voicing my preference multiple times. He stated that he didn't want to make the one I preferred as it would damage my teeth more than the one he wanted to make me. I had never had any tooth damage from my old mouthguard with 2yrs of use. After using the mouthguard made at Saints Dental for 12 months, it has made my bite change significantly which is very obvious to me when eating, has made my teeth shift and has chipped one of my teeth as it was ill fitting and not suited to my teeth/mouth at all (suprise surprise). I went to another dentist today (300+ 5 star reviews) to be told that my bite seemed to have changed from the 3D print I was provided by Saints Dental and the only way to rectify this would be with braces / Invisalign. I'm so upset and frustrated. I wish I was just given the style of mouth guard I wanted from the start but I wanted to trust the dentist and his experience. Never returning or recommending to others. Edited to add: this was the most painful teeth clean I have had. It hurt a lot at the time and I continued to have gum pain and bleeding for 4 days afterwards, I had to buy a numbing mouth wash.
Thanks for your review Kate .
It’s a night guard that we make to manage grinding which is used to prevent damage to teeth due to grinding (bruxism) and that’s why the night guards need to be replaced periodically .
They are made up of a softer material which gets worn instead of enamel and doesn’t stop the patient from grinding but prevents the damage when in the mouth .
They are made in standard designs using measurement which we do by intra oral scanning which records the exact position of the teeth at that point of time and in no way affect the position of the teeth .
We are happy to share the intra oral scans if your dentist wants to assess the position of your teeth compared to when we made the splint and we don’t remember receiving any communication from your side about the splint not fitting properly otherwise how were you wearing it ?
Thanks
Fantastic experience: First time I used this dentist the two girls out front and the dentist himself where lovely inviting people with great service awsum dentist with great pricing

Fantastic experience: I was very happy with the professional, polite, thorough service I received with Saints Dental on Wednesday. The Dentist and dental nurse were excellent! The dental surgery is spotless. Thank you! I have no hesitations in recommending Saints Dental. Lucille
Thanks a lot for your kind words Lucille
Glad to know you liked us
Negative experience: I’m writing this review from my experience last year, hopefully the staff have improved since then. The dentist was incredibly rude to me throughout my appointment. I went straight from work so was in my uniform, and upon learning my career (vet nurse) he continued to criticise my industry, saying that we’re so expensive, arguing with me on the pricing for various veterinary dental procedures. Overall, it was extremely unprofessional, not to mention not even true! Ironically, at the end of my appointment he handed me an estimate for “recommended” treatments (nothing essential) which cost far more than the cost he was complaining that my industry charges. I’m just positing this now as I needed to see another dentist today, and was very nervous after my experience at Saints Dental. But my new dentist elsewhere today was fantastic! So definitely will never be returning to Saints Dental.
Thanks for your feedback Mel
Good to know you found a dentist you are comfortable with and like their way of dealing .
Nobody criticised your field of work or argued with you for sure but thanks again for your kind feedback .
Negative experience: My Mum had a filling done 5 months ago and it has already fallen out. I rang to see if they would replace it at no charge but they would only offer a 50% discount. The initial cost of the filling was very high and I was very disappointed that the dentist was unwilling to fix this given the small amount of time that had elapsed. Over $300 for something that lasted only 5 months... outrageous.
Hi Sherry
Thanks for the review but mum was very clearly told about the possibility of the chipped filling as she is a grinder and it being a front tooth and wearing an occlusal splint/night guard was advised , but as you didn’t attend it might not have been known to you
We advise the cost of the filling before we do any treatment and take consent and had offered 50% discount just because it was done 5 months ago and not because it was due to any deficiency in our service
We provide the best possible care and take pride in our service
Have a nice day
Fantastic experience: I did not visit or have any appointments to be there with. What they did when I enquired about availability of an appointment on the Friday, or another day, went well beyond anything I could imagine. Unfortunately although I couldn’t get an appointment with them, the young lady that I spoke to was most courteous and gladly took my details as well as listening to my plight of a broken tooth. I managed to book with another practice for the Monday, while still wishing Zi could have gone to Saints. On the Sunday I received a message that there was an opening for Monday. On the Monday I received a phone call to enquire how I was going to see if I still needed assistance. To me this relentless desire to help stood out in my mind as a reminder that if ever I was in this situation again, I would wait for an opening at somewhere that cares, Sa8nts Dental
Thanks a lot for your kind words Juan
Hopefully we see you in future for your dental treatment needs
Negative experience: In simple plain english, is a rip off. I had two fillings done there and both fell apart after a while. When I went back I was made to pay again for the same fillings to be redone. The fillings ar falling appart again
Hi Samy,
Thanks for your review .
The filling was redone more than 12 months after being done initially and was lost due to the habitual grinding of teeth /complicated bite for which splint was advised .
If a filling gets chipped due to grinding or trauma we will still replace it at no cost if we are informed as soon as it happens but not after more than a year .
And we don’t provide free treatment fearing a bad Google review
Have a great day ☺️
Fantastic experience: What a brilliant experience, from time of enquiry for an appointment and on the day I arrived. Greeted and assisted by the professional. Extremely professional and efficient. I know exactly what my options are and everything was explained in detail. Recommend highly to anyone needing a new dentist. Believe me it's not expensive as compared to other dentists.
Thanks a lot for your kind words Mohit . Good to know that you had a pleasant experience
Fantastic experience: Excellent care.
Fantastic experience: I was very pleased with the treatment I received as well as the way the Dentist explained what he would be doing, I would highly recommend it and if they did pets I would even take my Husband also
Thanks a lot Lorraine for your kind words...we try to do our best
