Welcome

Dental Care for Bayswater North Residents

Divine Dental Care is a single practice in Croydon, at 59 Wicklow Avenue. Bayswater North and Croydon sit in the same local government area, the City of Maroondah, and a good share of the suburb's 9,000 residents already come to us rather than crossing into Knox.

Bayswater North has no station inside the suburb. Bayswater station is the closest, and it is on the Belgrave line, so reaching Croydon by train means changing at Ringwood and doubling back on the Lilydale line. Almost nobody does that. The drive up through Canterbury Road and Colchester Road is straightforward, about 4.1 km by road, and we have free on-site parking with no meters or time limits.

Day-to-day shopping in the suburb is Canterbury Gardens on Canterbury Road, with the bigger runs going to Eastland in Ringwood or Westfield Knox. That pattern shapes the appointments we see. People combine a dental visit with something else they were driving to anyway, which is why the 8:30am start and the Saturday until 5:00pm get used more here than the middle of a weekday. Bayswater North is also part of a large industrial and commercial precinct with more than 35,000 workers, so if you work there rather than live there, an early slot before a shift can be the simplest fit.

We are open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 6:00pm and Saturday 8:30am to 5:00pm. Because everything happens in the one Croydon surgery, a check-up and clean that turns into a crown, an implant or a root canal stays with the same team in the same building.

Dental Implants, Crowns, Cosmetic and Children's Care for Bayswater North Patients

Dental implants for Bayswater North patients

An implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone to stand in for the root of a missing tooth. It can carry a single crown, a bridge or a denture, and it does not rely on cutting down the healthy teeth either side of the gap. Planning uses x-rays or 3D scans taken on our own cone beam CT in Croydon, then the implant usually needs three to six months to bond with the bone before the final tooth goes on.

Crowns and bridges near Bayswater North

A crown caps a tooth that is cracked, heavily filled or weakened after root canal treatment, and a bridge closes a gap by anchoring a replacement tooth to crowns on the teeth beside it. For suitable single teeth we scan, design and mill a ceramic crown here in one visit, so there is no temporary crown to nurse and no second drive down from 3153.

Cosmetic dentistry for Bayswater and Bayswater North

Cosmetic work here covers whitening, veneers, composite bonding and tooth-coloured fillings. Whitening lifts staining from tea, coffee and red wine, but it will not change the shade of an existing crown or filling, which is worth knowing before you start. The first appointment is an examination and a conversation that ends with a written plan and costs, and nothing is booked that day unless you ask for it.

Cosmetic dentistry options

Children's dentistry for Bayswater North families

We suggest a first visit at around age two, or when the first teeth come through, kept short so your child gets used to the chair. Fissure sealants and fluoride treatments protect the grooves in back teeth where decay tends to start. Children who qualify for the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule are bulk billed, up to $1,158 over two calendar years.

Why Choose Us

What Bayswater North Patients Get at Our Croydon Practice

Top Tier With Four Health Funds

If your household is with Medibank, Bupa, HCF or nib, we sit in the top tier of their networks: Members Choice Advantage, Members First Platinum, More For Teeth and First Choice. Medibank, HCF and Bupa members with eligible extras cover can have two no-gap check-ups and cleans a year here, conditions apply. CBHS, GMHBA, Australian Unity, Westfund and more also list us as a preferred provider, and HICAPS takes the rebate off at the front desk.

Independently Accredited

The practice holds QIP accreditation, which means infection control, patient safety and clinical governance are checked by an outside assessor rather than described by us. The accreditation page explains what was assessed.

Ten Dentists in One Building

Ten dentists, an oral health therapist and a hygienist all work from the one Croydon surgery. Between them the dentists speak Mandarin, Cantonese and Shanghainese, and Korean is spoken by a dentist and the hygienist. Cone beam CT and an intraoral scanner are on site, so implant planning and crown scans never send you to a second address.

Early Starts and Saturdays

Doors open at 8:30am Monday to Saturday. We close at 6:00pm on weekdays and 5:00pm on Saturday, so a check-up can go before work in the Bayswater North precinct or into a Saturday morning without taking leave.

Bulk Billing for Eligible Children

Children aged 0 to 17 who are eligible for the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule can use up to $1,158 over two calendar years, and we bulk bill it. Book siblings back to back and the whole family is seen in one trip up from Bayswater North.
