SMILE SOLUTIONS located in the heart of the city and family owned, Smile Solutions has cared for more than 200,000 patients over the last 25 years. We are a multidisciplinary practice serviced by an experienced team of general practitioners as well as a diverse group of board-registered specialists in the fields of oral & maxillofacial surgery, endodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, and paediatric dentistry. Our dynamic team of clinicians is enthusiastically supported by management, reception, and nursing staff, 25 of whom have been with our practice for more than 10 years.

CORE DENTAL encompasses seven bespoke practices across the suburbs of Melbourne. Now with over 40 dental suites equipped with the latest technology, Core Dental offers boutique dentistry of the highest quality. Visiting specialists lend extra support and there is a strong mentorship program across the group. Our clinicians are encouraged to perform the full scope of dentistry, including substantial Invisalign and CEREC treatments, and are comprehensively supported through internal CPD education. Our portfolio of awards has distinguished our practice as a pioneer and leader in Australia’s health care industry. Smile Solutions is extremely proud to have been recognised for multiple award-winning service offerings, most notably being named Victorian Business of the Year in the 2014 Telstra Business Awards. 

Extensive Patient Base 

Owned and operated by a dentist since 1993, Smile Solutions, in conjunction with Core Dental, has built a patient base of over 300,000, with around 20,000 new patients each year. Our orthodontic department brings in more than 3,000 new patients a year, with over one-third of those being new Invisalign starts; this makes us one of the only Blue Diamond Invisalign providers in Australia.

"I started working with Smile Solutions in 2011 and have completed over 2,000 Invisalign cases. This speaks volumes about the consistent supply of new patients at Smile Solutions, which has always been exceptional.  

I have always been busy and enjoyed the outstanding facilities that Smile Solutions has provided, both with the latest technology and equipment and most of all with the supportive auxiliary staff. 

Another unique aspect of Smile Solutions is working alongside other specialists and general dentists; this helps improve the quality of care that I offer my patients. 

I would highly recommend any specialist or dentist to join us at Smile Solutions." 

– Dr David Austin, Registered Specialist Orthodontist

The high quality of service we provide, coupled with our size and superior location, means that our practice can command a reasonable fee schedule. Our business has no questionable affiliations with companies contracting others into conducting budget dentistry. 

“Smile Solutions is a wonderful clinic to work in. As a 2014 graduate, I find that being surrounded by a large supportive team not only is a pleasure to work with but takes a lot of stress out of my day, ensuring everything runs smoothly. This allows me to really focus on my dentistry and my productivity, consistently earning me over $30,000 per month working four days a week.”

Superior Technology

We are a group of clinics genuinely invested in the latest technology. We have recently acquired 8 new CEREC units, 12 new dental chairs and more Trios machines and iTero scanners to complement our existing fleet. Further to this, we have adopted multiple implant systems and microscopes, in addition to inhouse extraoral imaging such as CBCT and OPG units.

All clinicians have the option of providing the full range of dentistry or alternatively focussing on areas of dentistry that they enjoy. Should they choose to, our dentists can refer patients to either senior dentists or specialists within the practice. This allows for simple transitions for patients and the most comprehensive dental care.

"Smile Solutions provides a unique opportunity to learn and work in a multidisciplinary team with highly experienced general dentists and specialists. This has enabled me to provide high-quality, peer-reviewed, comprehensive care to my patients. While working at Smile Solutions, I have felt very well supported, and the collaborative environment has helped me grow and share my skills, knowledge, and experiences with others. What I have thoroughly enjoyed are the random coffee catchups with members across the team that have led to knowledge share, patient referrals and even chats about our personal lives.”
