Welcome

Quality Dental Care for Croydon Hills Residents

Croydon Hills sits north-west of the Croydon town centre and shares the same 3136 postcode. There is no dental clinic in Croydon Hills itself with our name on it. Divine Dental Care is one practice in Croydon, at 59 Wicklow Avenue, and Croydon Hills is one of the suburbs our patients travel in from.

The suburb is bounded by Plymouth Road to the south, Yarra Road to the east and Bemboka Road to the west, and both Plymouth Road and Yarra Road feed down into Croydon. Families from the Croydon Hills Primary School and Luther College catchments make up a solid part of our after-school appointments, and if you usually shop at McAdam Square or Burnt Bridge you are already driving in our general direction.

We are next to Croydon Central at the Kent Avenue and Wicklow Avenue corner, with free on-site parking so there is no meter to feed. Croydon station on the Lilydale line is a short walk away if you would rather not drive.

What Croydon Hills Asks Us For

Teeth Whitening, Veneers and Implants for Croydon Hills Patients

Clear aligners and crowns are the other two things Croydon Hills patients ask about most, and both have their own section further down this page.

Teeth whitening for Croydon Hills patients

In-chair whitening is done in one appointment of around 60 to 90 minutes, with a barrier over the gums while the gel works. Take-home whitening uses trays made to fit your teeth and runs over one to two weeks. Neither changes the colour of existing fillings, crowns or veneers, so it is worth checking what is already in your mouth first.

Dental veneers for Croydon Hills patients

Veneers cover the front of chipped, worn, uneven or stained teeth. Porcelain veneers are made in a laboratory over two or more visits and usually need a little enamel removed. Composite veneers are built up directly on the tooth, often in a single appointment, with less preparation and a lower cost.

Dental implants for Croydon Hills patients

An implant replaces the root of a missing tooth and can hold a single crown, a bridge or a denture. Treatment runs over several months, because the implant usually takes three to six months to bond with the jawbone. Planning scans are taken on the cone beam CT in our own building, so there is no separate imaging appointment.

Toothache, broken teeth or dental trauma: we keep room in the day for urgent appointments. Call us and we will fit you in as soon as we can.

Clear Aligners for Croydon Hills Patients

Aligner treatment is a good fit for the Luther College and Croydon Hills Primary age brackets, and for adults whose front teeth have crowded up again years after braces came off. It starts with a digital scan rather than a tray of impression putty. Our intraoral scanner builds the model here in the Croydon surgery, which is also what we use to check your teeth are tracking to plan at each review.

The honest constraint worth knowing before you book: aligners move teeth well through tipping and mild rotation, and less predictably where a tooth needs to be moved bodily through bone or where the bite itself has to be rebuilt. Some cases are better served by traditional braces or cosmetic braces, and we will say so at the assessment rather than after you have started.

See the clear aligners page for how the stages and reviews work.

Dental Crowns for Croydon Hills Patients

Most crowns we place are on back teeth that have been filled and refilled over decades until there is more filling than tooth left, or on a molar that has cracked under a root canal. A crown caps what remains so the tooth stops flexing and splitting further.

We scan and mill crowns in-house, which for suitable cases means a same-day crown: one appointment, no temporary crown to come loose over a weekend, and no second trip down Plymouth Road two weeks later. Not every tooth suits it. Cases needing gum healing or a lab-layered front tooth still take two visits, and we will tell you which one yours is before we start.

Full detail is on our crowns and bridges page.
