Fantastic experience: Would recommend Dr Arun Thangavel to everybody. His professionalism and caring nature. He understood my needs and listened to what I wanted with my treatment. I did my research around and found him to be the best specialist. I have had him before for implants to the top and I am know looking forward to great results for my lower teeth. Which will change my health and appearance. Also Alice who is very thorough and kind and answers all my questions, for my aftercare. ThankYou Seen Dr Thangavel yesterday extremely satisfied with the result and care he has shown me. Thank you again

Fantastic experience: I had the best professional treatment. All the staff were caring and ensured i would get the best possible result, which I did. I recommend Dr Hamsa and the team at Southern Dental Specialists and Implants anytime. Thank you Dr Hamsa and staff.

Fantastic experience: Explain everything in detail, on options I have for my teeth.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Charlie is the best in the business. So meticulous and thorough. He’s been the foreman of a multi-specialist, extensive treatment plan of mine, and he’s stayed on top of everything for years. He ensures everyone is liaising and working together to give me the best possible outcome. He also makes sure I know what’s happening every step of the way. My jaw surgery/teeth beautification is nearly over and I’m so incredibly thankful to Dr. Charlie and the team here. Dr. Charlie is brilliant, and we’re so lucky to have such a specialist in the Illawarra. I would have travelled to Sydney to see him if I had to (like I do with my jaw surgeon) but the fact Dr. Charlie chooses to stay in Wollongong and have reasonable prices rather than going up to Sydney and charging much more, just proves how awesome he is. He’s also very nice! I tend to choose expertise and experience over bedside manner; I find most specialists that skilled are pretty arrogant and rude. But Dr. Charlie is SO kind and pleasant, and very gentle and softly spoken. There’s no condescension or coldness. Actually, the whole practice is quite lovely. I particularly like Paige, she and Charlie work seamlessly together and it makes for a calm and cohesive treatment each session. All of the assistants in there are nice. You can tell they actually enjoy their job and their bosses. So yeah, can’t say enough positive things about SDSIC. You won’t be disappointed. Dr. Charlie is the best. Oh and on a more trivial note; the rooms and scrubs are in varying shades of purple, and I find it pretty and calming

Fantastic experience: Dr Arun Thangavel did a fantastic job with my teeth; he is an exceptional prosthodontist.. The entire process was painless and went smoothly. He explained everything thoroughly, ensuring I understood what was happening and why. Very professional, he went above and beyond in my dental work, which looks amazing. The staff were so lovely and make going to the dentist such a pleasant visit. I have had such a wonderful experience with Southern Dental Specialists & Implant Center and I am more than happy with results. Agata
