Dr Paulo Pinho Oral Surgery Clinic

Fantastic experience: This review is 2 years late but I felt terrible for continuing to forget to leave it. Dr Paulo explained how I had 3 complicated wisdom teeth to remove. He gave a great price, everything was efficient. Post surgery I had zero pain through the whole recovery process and barely any swelling. According to my friends that is not a common experience so big well done to him. Amazing job!!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely Outstanding Experience. Highly Recommend Dr Paulo Pinho and His Team! I recently visited Dr Paulo Pinho for a wisdom tooth extraction and I can genuinely say it was the best dental experience I’ve ever had. From the very beginning, Dr Pinho was incredibly understanding, calming, and caring. He conducted a thorough and detailed assessment, explaining every step clearly and patiently, which really put me at ease. On the day of the surgery, I was welcomed with a warm, comforting smile and reassuring words that made all the difference. The procedure was handled with utmost professionalism and care, and I felt completely safe throughout. His assistant was equally wonderful – kind, friendly, and attentive – and the receptionist was polite, welcoming, and extremely helpful in organising everything smoothly. Thank you, Dr Pinho and team, for your exceptional care and professionalism. I’m truly grateful and would recommend you to anyone in need of oral surgery or dental care. You’ve set a new standard in patient experience!

Negative experience: Booked a wisdom teeth removal consultation. Dr Paulo just looked inside my mouth, and said he can't do it as it's too complex and he is not doing it, as it's not worth it. The consultation took up to 5 minutes and then he told me to go. Such a disappointing experience.

Fantastic experience: Had my wisdom teeth removed with Dr Pinho. Really amazing service all around. The nurses at the hospital told me he's known for performing the surgery gently and it shows, I healed incredibly easily and quickly, really minimal pain. Great price, super easy, very grateful

Fantastic experience: Paul is a true gentleman and a professional. Booked in a consult to get two wisdom tooth removed, got a complimentary scan and then was booked in for the removal process. Paul was patient and when I was in the chair and said I hadn't eaten. Paul gave me time to go get something to eat before the procedure (which is for safety issues). The procedure itself was painless and took fifteen minutes if that. Paul and his assistants were great and the facilities were nice and clean. I'll be back for my normal dental here and can highly recommend for wisdom tooth removals.

Fantastic experience: Appreciated Dr Paulos clinical expertise and straight talking evidence based advice. Advised me not to have surgery which was very refreshing, for a private service not to prioritise finances. Appreciated the thorough initial consultation especially given it was free.

Fantastic experience: If I could provide 10 stars, I would do so. As a legal practitioner in NSW I am usually hesitant to write reviews; however, in Pinho's case I have no hesitation. At 58 years of age, I have seen many dentists/oral surgeons over the years, and 'none' have been as professional and honest as Dr. Pinho. With state-of-the-art dental equipment and courteous/helpful staff, he truly stands out alone with the affordable/pain free services that he provides. Recently I had a post inserted in preparation for a crown - no pain whatsoever. If you read 'any' negative reviews about Dr. Pinho, my advice is to ignore them as they are false. Thank you, Dr. Pinho (and your team), for the excellent services that you provide to the community without exploiting related costs.

Fantastic experience: I have visited Affordable Dentistry on multiple occasions and I have consistently found their services exceptionally professional. I appreciate the Information they provide before commencing the work. They make me feel safe and in good hands.

Fantastic experience: Dr.Evan is a brilliant dentist. He is caring, always ensures patient comfort and explains throughly any issues with the best course of action. His skill is exceptional, especially with crowns. I know this as when I was on a recent trip to Thailand l had a routine clean. The dentist there commented on the artistry of my three crowns Dr. Evan had done for me. The most important quality I admired about Dr. Evan is his empathy. I recently had a throbbing toothache and Dr. Evan was not available for 2 weeks due to his popularity. However, he made time after 5:30 pm on a Friday and fixed the problem and my pain. For this I am very grateful

Fantastic experience: Dr Pinho was very confident that he could remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth and I would be out and about in a few days. I actually felt great the very next day with little to no swelling. He knows what he’s doing, and did a great job! Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: The staff was welcoming and the dentist very knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend this clinic!

Fantastic experience: Really good experience quality service with low fee every staff were welcoming

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Dr Pinho. I had three wisdom teeth removed under general anaesthetic at Sydney Day Hospital a month ago. I had barely any swelling and the recovery was very simple. There was a very short wait time for the appointments and the surgery itself. The total price I paid for everything (including Dr Pinho’s surgery fee, anaesthetist fees, hospital fees, X ray and other scans) was $2213, with no private health cover. Dr Pinho has free consultations and follow up appointments. Overall it was much more cost effective than any other options I’ve seen and with no compromise in quality. I noticed that the only low ratings were from people who were turned away by Dr Pinho but if anything that gave me more confidence that he only takes on cases he is certain about. Definitely recommend for a high quality and affordable way to have wisdom teeth removed quickly.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service. Dr. Paulo is an excellent professional. Best surgeon dentist I have ever been. Strongly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Very happy with the implants, changed everything for the better, highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I came in for a second opinion on my extraction of my wisdom teeth as it was giving me an infection. Dr Michael was very professional and gave me free consultation for having an x ray and assessing my medical options for removing the wisdom tooth. He explained the complexity of my wisdom tooth infection and quoted a fair cost of $375 for my affected tooth. During the surgery, Dr Michael displayed superb skill and expertise in extracting the wisdom tooth and even recommended me more anaesthetic to reduce my pain until I could reach my home safely. The dental assistant also assisted with the surgery and she displayed empathy and reduced my stress during the process. Overall, 5 stars service to Dr Michael and his team and would recommend this clinic to anyone looking for an affordable fix to their dental and wisdom tooth issues.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely thrilled with Dr. Pinho's service! He performed an implant for my bottom molar, and the entire process was smooth and painless. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made my dental experience stress-free. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and the clinic is pristine and well-equipped. I would recommend Dr. Pinho 10 out of 10 times. If you're looking for top-notch dental care, look no further!

Fantastic experience: Dr Pinho removed all four of my wisdom teeth, and it was not a straightforward removal either. I couldn’t believe the incredibly affordable price, free consult and free review after surgery too. I am 2 weeks post op today and my recovery has been so smooth, so much better than I had imagined. I had my surgery under general anaesthesia at Sydney Day Hospital, the anaesthetist was very kind and reassuring, and all the staff at the hospital were wonderful as well. I had been afraid of getting my wisdom teeth out for years, and I am just so incredibly thankful for Dr Pinho and everyone else involved for treating me so well at such an affordable price, when dental care is so inaccessible to the average Australian. Thank you so much.

Negative experience: Horrible

Positive experience: Wisdom tooth consultation: - The pricing of the wisdom teeth varies and Dr paulo will explain how much your specific removal will be based on your xray scan. For my case, 1 extraction costs: $375 but also needs a CBCT scan of $225. However If removing all teeth at the hospital, prices are attached in the photo. Hospital fee because of no private health insurance and there will be a medicare rebate for the anesthetic fee. - This review has been edited as there were some misinformation and Dr paulo gave me a 15 minute call about it. This was the first time i've ever been called to edit a Google Review. During the phone call it was difficult for me to get a word in and didn't expect it to last so long. It left a sour taste for me as it felt like I was being lectured, but it was valid for the reason he called as it seemed like my prices he gave would be the price of every case. I was wrong in that regard and he will let you know how much yours costs during your consultation. - Kat, the receptionist was perfect, does her job really well. She was very empathetic, helpful and kind with everyone.

Fantastic experience: Amazing Clinic and free consultation with very affordable fees. Thank you !

Fantastic experience: I've had a missing tooth for >8 years and wanted to get an implant. previously the costs of implants were very expensive however I found Dr Pinho online and went in for a consult. He explained everything very clearly and what he can do for me. He is very straight to the point and was very happy with him. I was happy to proceed with his recommendations and now have a implant (going back for crown once it has healed/fused). I didn't experience any pain after at all which was surprising. The treatment was very affordable and there were no surprises or hidden costs. The consult/post op consultation all done for free. Dr Pinho is a genuine dentist that is trying to help. He was running a bit late but that's not an issue, I could have called ahead to confirm they're running on time. UPDATE: I finally was able to get my implant successfully in. It fits like a glove in my mouth and I am back to eating normally. You are not even able to tell it is an implant even if you look very closely. The total cost was $3410 which is $1000 cheaper than the next cheapest dentist I found. Overall very happy and couldn't recommend Dr pinho enough.

Negative experience: Dear Doctor, Thank you for the free TeleHealth and clinical consultation. I am giving your service a one star rate for the following reasons: 1- When we spoke on the phone you said an Xray must be done and you offered me to do one at the clinic, however you did not mention that it is a seperate service and there is $85 fee apart from the actual wisdom teeth removal fee, you waited until I came to the clinic and said it costs $85 and can be done next door. I asked you over the phone on purpose how much does it cost so I don’t come all the way to your clinic and you said $225-$275 for normal wisdom teeth removal (not surgical) you should mention to the patient that the Xray fee is different especially when you offer to do it(and yes you did offer to do it over the phone you didn’t mention anything about a seperate next door centre service) 2- The way you were speaking and cutting me off and the comment that you mentioned (s*** service) after I was saying I can’t afford the Xray fee is very unprofessional and does not reflect a dentist’s moral value. 3- My appointment was at 3:30 pm however I waited until you finished with your existing patient till 4:10 pm 4- I appreciate that you wrote me a referral after I asked you to do so I can have a panoramic Xray done at a bulk billed pathology, but after careful thought I choose not to get my wisdom teeth removed at your clinic because of the reasons mentioned above. My advice to you is get an Xray machine like any other dentist and charge a higher amount rather than “sending your patients” to your “convenient next door centre” when they come for a free clinical consultation thinking the cost of the removal includes an Xray especially when you don’t mention it. For anyone looking to get his wisdom teeth removed at this doctor, make sure you take in consideration a $85 panoramic Xray fee, thats on top of the $225-$275 wisdom tooth removal fee ( and most likely you will pay $275 because in my case I was quoted the higher end price $275 for my wisdom tooth and I would argue that it’s not that complicated for him to charge me $275 as it is fully grown and shown). So you will end up paying a total of $360 like pretty much any other dentist who offers a removal fee including an Xray. I don’t normally post reviews on google and I don’t have the time to do so but because of the time I wasted at this clinic and the dentist’s behaviour I had to do so.

Fantastic experience: Great staff and doctors! Really friendly and professionals. Also the location is very easy and accessible.

Fantastic experience: Dr Pinho was incredible. Firstly, in the initial consultation where he explained everything in detail and took 3D imagery free of charge to deliver the most accurate prognostic. Then during the procedure he was so gentle and worked so quickly and accurately that the procedure was completely pain free. Can't recommend Dr Pinho enough!

Fantastic experience: Just booked my second surgery with Dr Pinho after a successful first one. Nice down to earth doctor with super gentle hands. This time i booked a telephone free consultation since i am leaving far away. the call was a bit late but i found it to be super convenient

Negative experience: Read all 1 star reviews first. I am over 40 years of age, and I need a single, bottom, wisdom tooth removed. These two facts alone (which I had disclosed to the dentist prior to my appointment) made Dr Paulo say immediately he couldn't help, offering me a referal to an oral surgeon and a $95 xray which I could take to another dentist/surgeon. Wish I had known that before I spent my morning travelling into the city. Word of advice to anyone seeking a wisdom tooth removal from this dentist, have a phone consultation first, because they can't help everyone. I also find it extremely unprofessional (and perhaps even illegal given that Dr Paulo is a doctor) that your response has revealed my age and some medical history.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo Pinho is very caring and honest . Gave me advice and referred me to a surgeon . Would not take payment for the consultation . Highly recommend.

Negative experience: I made the appointment to help sort out a missing front tooth. As the website clearly states they are a full service dentist. It's a very misleading website. I thought someone would be able to assist or provide guidance - this was not the case with the appt. I was more of a thanks and good luck meeting.

Fantastic experience: Paul was really clear about what he had to do and the did exactly what he said. He has my confidence. Surgical extraction of a broken front tooth was intrusive and unpleasant and Paul made it as easy as possible. I'm a terrified dental patient but will happily let him do what is required. Thanks for your professionalism and skill Paul.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo was very honest and professional in giving his advice about my wisdom teeth. Much appreciated!

Fantastic experience: Excellent service! My wife had her two wisdom teeth extracted at this clinic and we are very happy about how the procedure was done and how we were treated as customers. Dr.Pinho was very professional and gentle. He explained everything clearly and made sure we understood what he said. His staff were also very friendly and helpful. In terms of the price, we only paid about $600 for both teeth which is a lot cheaper compared to other oral surgeons around Sydney. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Affodable pricing. Friendly staff.Highly recommend.

Negative experience: Dr Pinho requires dental referrals, but he is too shy to mention it on his website. As if there were not enough homemade crooks in Sydney. Don’t waste your time on him. Go overseas while you can. P.S. I have received a strange response from Dr Pinho to my review. He never mentioned any Periodontist. He said my surface was perfect. I have no periodontitis. I was told by him and by his receptionist about dental referrals 2 times.

Fantastic experience: I went last week Monday to see Dr. Paulo since my wisdom tooth had starting to puncture my inner cheek and caused an ulcer to form. I have been putting it for so long since I had a not so good overall experience with my previous dentist plus the high fee associated with any dental work. Dr. Paulo was straightforward, upfront regarding the fee which basically is peanuts compared to other practice and told me that I could have it removed the same night if I wanted to. After a 10mins and painless process, Dr. Paulo extracted my wisdom tooth and provided me with a detailed post-op care. It has been 10 days and the wound is healing up nicely. I will definitely recommend Dr. Paulo to anyone wanting to remove their wisdom tooth.

Negative experience: If I could 0 stars I would. I called the clinic and spoke to a really rude receptionist who didn’t want to give out any information about where the doctor operates from or anything about appointments. I booked an Telehealth consult with the dr about getting my wisdom teeth removed and I never received a call. I decided to not even bother calling up about my appointment and instead found a more professional surgeon practise

Fantastic experience: Friendly, efficient and professional. The team were amazing. Compared to previous extractions I have had this was painless and recovery has been smooth.

Fantastic experience: Having all four my wisdom teeth removed was a scary idea but I was confident in doctor Pinho’s ability and satisfied with the price and efficiency of his practice. thank you so much to his office for organising everything and for being reaponsive!

Fantastic experience: I had 2 teeth extraction. Doctor Paulinho did my surgery quickly and almost no pain at all. 5 stars to you, Doc! you are legend!!!

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo Pinho was efficient and friendly, gave me comprehensive advice and set me up with everything I needed for my extraction. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Second times getting my wisdom tooth removed by his magic hand. No pain, extremely quick! Heal fast as well. The cheapest wisdom tooth removal in Sydney.

Fantastic experience: Im so glad that i did my extraction here!! I didn't even realise it was out i heard many doctors saying they are pro but Dr Paulo Pinho i can tell even with my non existing dental knowledge that he is really a pro

Fantastic experience: Went in for a consultation about dental implant, was redirected to a different dentist to remove a broken upper molar that couldn’t be repaired, the entire process from reception through to the tooth extraction was handled so warmly and professionally by the staff and doctors. The operation itself was amazingly pain free, follow up information was great as well, nothing but praise for the team that helped me

Fantastic experience: Visiting Dr Paulo for a consultation has been the best thing I have done for my teeth. Full disclosure - my case was too complex for Dr Paulo and he has referred me on forward. But the fact that Dr Paulo delivered top notch service, made me feel incredibly comfortable, and informed me with all the necessary information to move forward with my treatment. His service and operation is nothing short of respectful, professional, and honest.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service and highly professional with state of the art equipment, From start to finish, my experience was far beyond expectations I highly recommend for implants

Fantastic experience: Everything went smooth from the 1st consultation, extraction of two wisdom teeth and then the post op consultation. During and after the extraction were no pain at all. Fully recommend Dr Paulo Pinho!!

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo, Dr Douglas and his staff were extremely professional. The whole place looks comfy and calm. I had a pain-free wisdom tooth extraction performed by Dr Paulo. Dr Douglas who performs my dental implant procedures, is very professional. He takes the time to explain what needs to be done and provides valuable advice. The staff were great and extremely helpful. They made me feel confident in their hands. It was the first time I had pain-free dentistry. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for good dental treatment. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Had all four Wisdom Teeth removed by Dr Paulo Pinho in Hospital. Was a good experience with a quick recovery. After one week it had already healed nicely. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Negative experience: Couldn't give 0 stars unfortunately. I found them on the Internet and they positioning themselves as AFFORDABLE wisdom teeth removal professionals. Not bad reviews too, BTW. I booked appointment online on 7th October 2021. The night before my appointment I received a reminder SMS, saying "We are not allowed to see patients from Covid restricted LGAs in Sydney at the moment. If you live in these areas, please request a free Telehealth Consultation when booking" What a joke! At the time of booking there was no one word about it! BTW, by that time there weren't such things like LGAs of concern in Sydney since 20 September 2021. Well, I had no choice but cancel my appointment and request next available date which was 14 October 2021. My wisdom tooth started to give me a pain by that time. So far manageable. This time, when booking new appointment, I specifically pointed that I'm living at particular place in Sydney, but it's NO MORE LGA of concern. So far so good. Then I received another SMS saying: "We are changing all first appointments to a Telehealth consultation to be done over the phone". So, I bit the bullet. Emailed them requested X-Rays and prepared to the phone consultation. What do you think happened next? NOTHING! AT ALL! They even failed to make a call! Zero responsibility! And they call themselves "Professionals". What a joke! I lost two weeks of my time and by the end of second week I already suffered from significant pain. Of course, it was the last straw. I found another surgeon. BTW, affordable priced too. All good now. So, think twice if you want to repeat my painful experience or find REAL PROFESSIONALS. P.S. I'm curious if they have a policy in place to react to customers reviews. I doubt it.

Fantastic experience: Blessed to have the procedure done by Dr. Douglas Lo. His technique is highly commendable, from beginning to end. Procedure was done to the highest standard, he put me at ease during the whole process. Felt no pain, explained the whole process very clearly. Highly recommended. All staff are friendly and welcoming. Thank You .

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience/surgery with Dr Paulo Pinho! I had 3 wisdom teeth removed, I have had no pain at all and on way to a quick recovery! Can’t thank him and his team enough :)

Fantastic experience: Very professional friendly service. Offices are really nice, clean and modern. They explained the procedure I needed clearly and was upfront about the cost of each step. The dentle work was top notch. Very happy. Already booked in for my next appointment.

Fantastic experience: Recall quick and easy wisdom tooth extraction. Took me through the whole process and was very helpful

Fantastic experience: I had wisdom tooth emergency pain and been waiting on a general dentist list for over 2x years as they told me I required surgery. I looked online and found dr. Pinho’s clinic. I had a phone consultation with him on Thursday and explained my situation, he arranged for me to come in straight away on the Monday. I went in and he explained to me the options I had and that I didn’t require surgery and just local anesthetic and he would organize to have my wisdom teeth removed the same day. I was soooo relieved. Dr pinho referred me to dr Ross who is in the same clinic and who was able to pull out all 4x of my wisdom teeth the very same day. Not to mention all for just $970, as promised on their site. Can I just say a big thank you to dr pinho and dr Ross for your prompt and excellent dental services. I will be recommending you to all my friends and family. I can’t explain how thankful I am and for the services you’ve provided. Also the receptionist was soo sweet and lovely. I highly recommend this dental clinic.

Fantastic experience: I loved that clinic. All the staff very professional. Dr. Douglas and Dr. Ross both very attentive, professional and nice. My extraction was wonderful, super fast recovery.

Fantastic experience: Finally found a dental surgery that I can actually afford for my implants, had 2 teeth extracted just recently and I was made to feel so comfortable during the whole process highly recommend the clinic.

Fantastic experience: Truly an Implant Specialist. Many claim the title, but few truly are. Gentle, precise, professional and an expert in this field. Dr Pinho provides the highest quality dental implant services you will find. Staffed with an incredible team and topped off with affordability unlike any other clinic I've attended earn this business every point of this 5 star rating.

Fantastic experience: I had 4 wisdom teeth removed on 23 June 2021. Dr Pinho's skill is amazing, and Dr Michael's anaesthesia skill is also brilliant. Everything went well. I wanted to thank Dr Pinho after the surgery but sadly I did not have the chance. So if you ever read this, thank you doc, you are an angel!

Fantastic experience: Two broken teeth removed with skill and care.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Paulo Pinho made this experience better than I could have ever expected. He took the time to explain everything in detail for me and also gave me time to ask any questions I had regarding my treatment options! Thank you for all your help Paul!

Positive experience: What a great dentist!! Dr Pinho removed four of my wisdom teeth. He achieves a perfect balance between making his patients comfortable and being straightforward, informative, and efficient. Still recovering from the surgery but there's been no issues so far. And the affordability was a great help for me as a student. Edit: A week later and the recovery has been smooth aside from a sore throat 3 days in. It isn't a big deal, but it would have been nice if the phone number supposed to provide post-op advice actually did that instead of pretending the sore throat had nothing to do with the operation.....

Fantastic experience: I was told by a dentist I saw that I need to have my wisdom teeth removed and quoted a terribly scary price to do it (potentially $8000). So I came across Dr Pinho and booked myself in. He looked at my x-rays, talked to me for about 45 minutes it total, explained that he in fact does not recommend wisdom teeth removal and why (risks vs rewards) then also explained the financial incentive the other dentist had. And he did not charge me a thing!!! I still can't quite believe that, you just don't get that sort of thing now. Because I was so uncertain I contacted a friend's Dad who has been a dentists for 40 years and showed him my x-rays and agreed that it is best not to get them removed. I've never had any pain, they are not emerging and so unlikely to get infected, I'm old enough that they are likely not going to move and the surgery carries considerable risk. So I cannot recommend enough seeing Dr Pinho, you literally have nothing to lose and I really felt I could trust the specialist who did want to take any money from me. Thank you very much Dr Pinho, you are an absolute legend for doing what you do

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Dr Paulo Pinho for the removal of my 4 wisdom teeth, 2 of which were impacted. The consultation was informative and Dr Pinho made sure I was aware of any possible complications that could arise from the surgery. I went in for surgery 2 weeks later. The procedure was quick and post surgery was much less painful than I had imagined. My mouth wasn't too sore and the overall healing process was a breeze. 10 days post op I went in for my follow up consultation and Dr Pinho said my mouth had healed perfectly. I couldn't recommend Dr Pinho enough. Getting my wisdom teeth out was always something I was terrified and extremely nervous for, however, Dr Pinho did an excellent job at making the whole process easy, stress free and affordable.

Fantastic experience: In Melbourne

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo was amazingly honest. I have received two other opinions and I believe Dr Paulo diagnosis was the most accurate. Through the Xrays I provided from other dentist Dr Paulo was able to advise me on the cause of discomfort around my wisdom tooth area. As it turns out, I suffer from swollen gums. Dr Paulo was able to provide advice on future treatment should the wisdom become a problem in the future, however for now it is just more about taking better care of my gums. I felt relieved with the diagnosis as Dr Paulo explained everything to me in plain English and through my own xrays was able to prove his diagnosis. I attempted to pay Dr Paulo for his time, however, he was a thorough gentleman and was not hear of it. Almost impossible to believe there are still many good people in this world who put people before the dollars. I wish you much success Dr Paulo. Thank you for lifting a burden from me, and educating me at the same time.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service, fair priced and experienced professionals

Fantastic experience: Booked a free consultation with Dr Pinho and he explained to me straight up that I had a complicated case and that I needed to see a maxillofacial surgeon. He was very honest- put me at ease and explained the steps I had to go through to get a referral to see someone. This was a free consultation and yet he took the time to carefully explain and give me advice on the best options for the future. I am very grateful, thank you! He was very nice and polite throughout the consult

Fantastic experience: Dental implants The service was excellent, Dr was very nice and professional, his explanation was thorough, his nurse Renee was sooo sweet. I had the best experience. Surgery was easy, simple and painless. thank you.

Fantastic experience: Made a free consultation booking online on Saturday got an appointment for Monday morning at 9 York Street. 9:30am seen the dentist. The bloke was extremely professional got told everything up front about the procedure of getting my wisdom teeth removed including cost. Got my x-ray done and was told he was able to remove it that same day!! While he was very busy he managed to slot me in a gap. I was told that the process will be painless but I was still extremely anxious. He was right, the way he applied the local anaesthetic was painless and the removal of the teeth took about 30seconds. It was done before I even realise it. Highly recommended! Affordable, professional, clean, painless and quick process. The nurse and front lady staff was also great! Thanks for the pleasant experience, TJ

Negative experience: My other half had a confirmed teleconference appointment @6:15 today. He waited for 30 minutes and no call came through. Why bother to use this type of platform when the service cannot be delivered to waiting customers?What a joke!!!!

Negative experience: Called, asked for an appointment, was advised that all appointment are over the phone. I did sit next to my phone at the appointment time and it was in a full working condition as I made calls and received calls the same morning. No phone call from the dentist. Received a text that their system couldn't reach me and I should make ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH THE SYSTEM. If the this customer service is a preview to dental services, I'd look somewhere else.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo Pinho and his team were absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. Professional and caring. I must also give a shout-out to the anesthetist, Dr Michael Kerr. All such great people! I had my bottom right wisdom tooth surgically removed and I highly recommend everyone in the roles they played. It is healing well so I'm very happy. Sarah

Fantastic experience: I had my free consultation with Dr Paulo Pinho who super knowledgeable and professional. He explained my case very clear and concise and did not beat around the bush when it came to my dental health. I would definitely recommend anyone who has any queries with their wisdom teeth or implants to speak to him.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Pinho is a great medical professional. I visited him for a consultation due to an irritation caused by my lower wisdom tooth. While doing my research, I encountered a pile of misleading information and ads that wisdom teeth are easy to be removed. On the contrary, Dr. Pinho wasn’t like that. He thoroughly explained the root causes of my pain and how this should be treated. After taking an OPG X-ray, he carefully laid out the pros/cons of having surgery at my age and how I should be cautious with the decision. He also carefully explained how to manage the teeth afterwards. Considering this was originally free (without an OPG), what I got was a best-in-class consultation from a certified oral surgeon with many years of experience. I know from experience that surgery isn’t always the best option, but hearing this from a surgeon isn’t common (I could have easily paid out a few thousand bucks due to my unique circumstances). In that aspect, Dr. Pinho deserves my huge respect since he does treat his patients with care but not as money. I highly recommend Dr. Pinho for your wisdom teeth issues. Thank you Doctor.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Paulo Pinho made this experience better than I could have ever expected. He took the time to explain everything in detail for me and also gave me time to ask any questions I had regarding the procedure. I had full surgery and it was done with such excellence! I felt very taken care of by the friendly and warm staff. I highly recommend to anyone if you have any wisdom tooth issues book through here, you will be very grateful you did.

Negative experience: He is the only dentist in the world who will send you to other dentist for treatment as he is not confident.....Never recommend to visit him.

Fantastic experience: Dr Pinho was very honest. I asked him as a second opinion. He said I don't need to remove any of my wisdom teeth from my X-Ray whereas the other dentist said I need to do it. My teeth is not easy to be removed and may come with lots of risks, and he can't believe why the other dentist still want to do this. He advised me that just keep track of them with an honest dentist... I give Dr Pinho a good review is not only because he told me I don't need to get my teeth removed. Only my new dentist told me to do so and I've never been told to remove them with my previous 2 dentists. I'll definitely recommend Dr Pinho to my colleagues and friends who have concerns about wisdom teeth.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo is no nonsense, affordable, high quality and very gentle doctor. I had been told that I needed four wisdom teeth our at a ridiculous cost, I went to Dr Paulo for a free consultation where he advised me to just take one tooth out at a cost of $225, I came back the next week and my tooth was out in 10 mins with no pain afterwards - super gentle (I was very anxious beforehand). Dr Paulo and his staff were kind, gentle and friendly. I have recommended Dr Paulo to many friends as his low cost and high quality service is something everyone should have access to.

Fantastic experience: A colleague recommended Dr Pinho and I'm more than impressed. I had a wisdom tooth removed for $225. No pain and it took no more than 10 minutes. He was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. Finding a good dentist is like finding an honest mechanic. I would highly recommend Dr Pinho to anyone needing a wisdom tooth removed! He's making dental care more accessible.

Fantastic experience: I Went to see Dr Paulo Pinho today. He was amazing, honest and very well informed. I was a little worried walking in knowing they were so much cheaper than any other oral surgeon on the market. I always thought that the less you pay the experience, quality and support would be compromised. I was pleasantly surprised, he was very well informed, had many years of experience and his manner was thoughtful and lovely! Thoroughly enjoyed my free consultation and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing to remove their wisdom teeth. Even though he couldn’t assist me today he wasn’t In a rush to get rid of me, in fact he was able to assist and guide me and answered all my questions. Thank you Dr.

Fantastic experience: So glad Dr Pinho runs a practice like this. He took time to see me and then saw the problem with my teeth and helped me in a very timely way. Was in so much pain and now am so relieved to be able to eat pain free. Thanks so much!

Fantastic experience: Really nice guy. Have an issue with one of my teeth - either root cancel or dental implant (what he does) - tells me straight off try for the root canal if possible. cant get more honest than that - took 30 mins of his time to talk to me for free. Is selective on his patients and will only take ones he think he can do right . Well worth saying hi to if you need something done - oh and if you need root canal you need to see an Endodontists not just a dentist - Dr P gave me that info!

Negative experience: I came into the clinic to hopefully get two of my wisdom teeth removed. My gums in the back of my mouth were swelling up in cycles. The left first and then the right in the span of a couple of months. For a couple of days my right gum swell up so much it was painful to swallow. I kept feeling around with my fingers and noticed solid material trying to push through my gums. I assumed, wisdom teeth! When i sat in the chair, Dr. Pinho asked me why I thought my wisdom teeth was growing. I said because my gums puffed up. He looked into my mouth and said that theres no space for them to grow so I am never going to have wisdom teeth grow. He said to me "What are you hiding from me?" in a very rude and condescending way. I was shocked. Also when I said both are puffed up he said "no one ever has their wisdom teeth grow at the same time, unless youre an alien or something?" again very rude and condescending. I have never had a doctor question me in that way. Im not a dentist I dont know how these things work. All I know is Im here to ask for help, not to be talked down on. So he asked me if I wanted to get an x-ray to see whats happening. Got my x-ray done. Guess what, I HAVE WISDOM TEETH. All four fat ones! (The one irritating me is in my profile picture and its cosied up right under my molar) They're not erupted but I can definitely feel them. So now he's mad that no one told me to remove my wisdom teeth at around 18 years old. He's telling me now my roots are long and close to my nerve. He told me the problems are caused by my molars not my wisdom teeth. That there's a lot more cons to getting it removed. So... Youre not able to do it doctor yes? So previously he said Im never going to have it grow because I dont have space, now it's theres.. is it not going to grow more and push up against my other teeth? So he sent me on my way feeling hopeless and stupid. Now I've found another dentist, who did a 3D x-ray to see where the tooth is in relation to my nerve and to see if it is safe for extraction. At least if my case is uncomfortable for the Doctor, he should not express his frustration to me in the way that he did. It is not my fault I did not know. I only came to ask for help.

Fantastic experience: My 2 wisdom teeth has been extracted perfectly. Thank you Doctor Pinho.

Negative experience: Dr Paulo, you just wasted 4 weeks of my time, since I made initial appointment on 15th July 19 for 5th August 19 consultation. Then I received SMS saying you were sick so I had to book for today 12th August 19. I arrived to your surgery in the city where you greeted me. As I tried to take my jacket off to get in the chair, you said, don't get too excited. So I sat in the chair with my jacket on, and you asked me which tooth are we talking about. Once I showed you the tooth in question, you simply said for me to go to my dentist and get my tooth out, then return to your surgery to get the implant done. The whole consultation lasted literally 1 minute! Now, I had my share of dentists visits in my life but this was the first time a dentist told me to get my tooth extracted somewhere else and then come back for implant. WOW!!! It seems to me you don't like to get your hands dirty to get the whole procedure done, instead you would like to scoop the cream pocket $3000 for 2h work. Quite a good business model going there. Anyway, this was my worst dentist experience without any pain, I moved on with my dark tooth intact. Best of luck

Fantastic experience: I sought Dr Paulo Pinho for surgical removal of all 4 wisdom teeth after I was quoted $200 for just an initial consultation with another doctor. I had no issues whatsoever booking in for a consultation. During the consultation, I found Dr Pinho to be honest and straightforward with his advice and process. Despite my case being relatively complex, the surgery was finished quickly and I have not encountered any unexpected complications during my recovery. The level of care provided by Dr Pinho, Dr Michael Kerr (anaesthetist for my procedure) and Dr Douglas Lo (who saw me after the surgery and answered my silly questions while Dr Pinho was abroad) was of a very high standard. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Pinho - it is clear he is a skilled dentist with a genuine desire to help people, not one driven by profit.

Fantastic experience: Had my first wisdom teeth consultation. Dr Pinho was very informative. Already booked the surgery for 7th August. The cost was the most affordable quote out of all the specialist I've seem. $970 for dentist + $850 hospital + $350 for anesthetist with medibank rebate

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Dr Paulo Pinho. Had my trouble top right wisdom teeth removed on the first consulting day. Everything went well and it was done within 2 minutes without any pain. Dr Paulo did the job very effectively.

Fantastic experience: So glad I found Dr Pinho. Had both my top wisdom teeth removed last week . It was really quick and no pain or swelling afterwards. I was able to get them out on the same day as my consultation. Highly recommended him.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo was awesome. He helped me remove four wisdom teeth and an affected tooth. The operation was smooth. Did not swell or feel any major pain after the surgery. The price was also ideal, much more ideal than all other options I researched. Would definitely recommend Dr Paulo if you are considering removing your wisdom teeth.

Fantastic experience: I love this man, he got real with me and I felt super comfortable. smooth, gentle, and straight to the point. pulled my wisdom teeth super fast no hassle. My boiiiii Pinho

Fantastic experience: I highly recomend dr paulo pinho and friendly staff,

Fantastic experience: I had my Wisdom teeth out in April - my experience with Dr Pinho in the pre-surgury consultation at Bondi was prompt but comprehensive, very professional. Himself and the receptionist went through the operating process and post-op recovery process before taking an Xray in house (for a small fee). Two of my teeth were horizontally impacted and causing serious pain (i had all 4 of mine out under general). The anaesthetist (Dr Michael Kerr) is also very friendly and engaging before putting you to sleep. Dr Pinho's an absolute master, In and out of the operating room in less than 40 minutes and a very clean stitching job. Zero post op bleeding, no dry socket, pain went away after 3-4 days and i was chewing food on the 5th day. A+ experience for me and i would definitely recommend his services, not to mention that his pricing for wisdom teeth extraction is second to none. The only downside for me was his Assistants lack of communication, i called several times prior to and following my extraction for a follow up, yet the only time i was contacted by his Assistant was for her to book me in for surgery and to collect payment. From my experiences, i wouldn't be surprised if the practice is pretty fully booked out but perhaps it wouldn't hurt to consider setting up a feedback or online follow up email/ notification for future clients. Hope this helps.

Fantastic experience: I visited Dr Paulo today. I have to say he is a great dentist, and he considers a lot for the patient. He is not a profit-oriented dentist, and I can see that he is doing the thing for helping people access the more affordable dental services. Although he can't help my case due to the complexity, but I want to thank him for his three choices given.

Fantastic experience: I was most pleased with Dr.Paulo Pinho's services; quality of care with my dental implant and an upfront price which was met precisely. Originally I had almost chosen a closer dental provider on the northern side of Sydney where I live, but visiting the city has turned out to be a better option & well worth the train travel. For a reasonable service of $3k all up, I can now fully open my mouth to speak without having to mumble to hide the embarrassing gap. The implant fitted perfectly.

Fantastic experience: Dr Pinho and his team did a fantastic job with my front tooth implant. Dr Pinho was direct and professional advising me of my options as my implant case was complex. He conducted thorough scans and examinations to be 100% certain before he agreed to take on my case, as is the nature of front tooth implants. I am so grateful he agreed to perform the implant procedure. My surgery was performed with the digital guide and the process was quick and painless. After 3 months the crown was installed and I am so happy with the results and being able to eat properly again without dentures is amazing. I choose Dr Pinho because his practice was located in Sydney and his pricing is fair and and comparable to Thailand, however, with Australian standards. I highly recommend anyone who requires dental implants to have a consult with Dr Pinho. Just be aware to have a clear schedule as waiting times for scheduled appointments do run late as the Doctor is a busy man. I require 2 more implants and will complete them with Dr Pinho. Thanx Doc.

Fantastic experience: Dr Paulo provides an excellent professional service.

Fantastic experience: I recently had an implant done yesterday, Wasn’t painful at all and easily done within 10 to 15mins, for me I had waited nearly one year after my tooth removed by Dr Paulo he had put bone grafting as I had lost a lot of bone due to me leaving it for too long, mine was a difficult case he said but I kept positive and had three consultations in that time with him so he can check the bone regrowth, first it was bone too soft still, second almost but let’s wait and review, third all clear positive it can be done and can carry out the procedure, he said he wouldn’t continue if he felt that it cannot be done so he doesn’t push in anyway. On the day the implant was put in he did say that it was better then he expected which gives me more positive feeling to the end result. Stage one done review consult again in the coming week. His team is helpful, he will advise you the after care for the week to come..After one day no pain only the slight sore but that will eventually go away..Two thumbs up

Fantastic experience: I cannot say thank you enough to Dr Paulo Pinho. Even though my procedures won’t be done by him. He was very informative on the best options for the procedure I was looking for. Going beyond what other dentist have done and giving me further contact details to get the best results for procedure I am wanting. I flew from Victoria to Sydney for the consultation and in no way do I think I waisted my time or money in doing so. (I was not charged for the consultation) his advice alone was worth it. I have seen many dentist and found most of them have dollar signs in their eyes. Dr Paulo Pinho clearly cares about his work, delivering services with honesty, understanding and truth, a pleasure to have seen. Very disappointing to read some negative reviews and to be honest, if these people found him to have a bad attitude, perhaps they need to check on their own attitudes. I wonder do they do not like to hear the truth and go with expectations that are not in reality. Because he certainly DID NOT HAVE BAD PEOPLE SKILLS or ATTITUDE. Thanks for keeping it real Dr Paulo Pinho, your honesty in my consultation was greatly appreciated. Vicki Lee Swards

Fantastic experience: I had my 4 wisdom teeth removed last month, very easy quick and affordable experience. Very happy with the quick appointment bookings and service. Total price was a lot cheaper than my family dentist quoted.
