Welcome

Dental Care for Montrose Residents

Divine Dental Care is a single practice in Croydon, at 59 Wicklow Avenue. Montrose sits in the Shire of Yarra Ranges rather than Maroondah, and for a suburb of around 6,900 people on the edge of the ranges, the practical dental options are the ones down the hill.

There is no railway station in Montrose and there never has been; the closest is Mooroolbark on the Lilydale line, about 5.7 km away. The road that matters is Mount Dandenong Road, which runs west through Kilsyth and into Croydon. It is a short trip, and we have free on-site parking with no meters or time limits, which is the relevant detail when the alternative is finding a space in a shopping strip.

Montrose sits on the foothills of Mount Dandenong, climbing from about 90 metres to over 320 metres, with Lilydale to the north and Kilsyth to the west. The suburb has been settled since 1892, when it was still called South Mooroolbark. Local shopping is small by design, so most households already drive to Kilsyth or Croydon for anything beyond the basics, and appointments tend to get folded into that trip.

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.

What Montrose Asks About

Dental implants, dentures and crowns for Montrose patients

Replacing missing teeth, repairing worn or broken ones, and cosmetic work are covered below. Each of these is done in the one Croydon practice, from the first scan to the final fit.

Dental implants for Montrose patients

An implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth, and it can carry a single crown, a bridge or a denture. Planning starts with x-rays or a 3D scan, and our cone beam CT is in the Croydon building, so there is no extra trip to a radiology clinic. The implant then integrates with the bone, typically over three to six months, before the final tooth is fitted.

Full and partial dentures near Montrose

Full dentures replace every tooth in an upper or lower arch. Partial dentures fill the gaps and clasp onto the teeth you still have, in acrylic or with a thinner cobalt-chrome framework. We make dentures here at the practice, and new ones usually need a follow-up visit or two to fine-tune the fit, which is simpler when it is one drive along Mount Dandenong Road each time.

Crowns and same-day crowns for Montrose

A crown covers a tooth weakened by a large filling, a crack or root canal treatment. For suitable teeth we scan the tooth, design the crown on screen and mill it from a ceramic block here during your appointment, so there is no temporary crown and no second trip from Montrose. Other cases use porcelain, zirconia or porcelain-fused-to-metal over two visits.

Veneers, whitening and cosmetic care for Montrose

Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of a tooth to change its shape, shade or proportion. Composite veneers can often be done in one appointment, while porcelain takes two or more. Professional whitening lifts staining in the enamel but will not change the colour of existing crowns or fillings. A cosmetic consultation ends with a written plan and costs, and nothing is booked on the day unless you want it to be.

Why Montrose Patients Come Down the Hill to Croydon

Accredited Through QIP

The practice is accredited through Quality Innovation Performance (QIP), which independently checks our infection control, patient safety and clinical governance. For anyone from Montrose planning implant or denture work over several visits, that standard applies to every stage of it.

Every Stage Under One Roof

Ten dentists, an oral health therapist and a dental hygienist work from the Croydon rooms, with cone beam CT, an intraoral scanner and an in-house milling unit in the same building. Fewer handovers to outside clinics means fewer separate trips down from the foothills. Members of the team speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Shanghainese and Korean.

Saturdays Until 5pm

We are open Monday to Friday 8:30am to 6:00pm and Saturday 8:30am to 5:00pm. Montrose has no railway station, so most people drive to us, and a Saturday appointment means that drive does not come out of a work day.

Children's Benefits Bulk Billed

Montrose has two government primary schools, Montrose Primary and Billanook Primary. Children who qualify for the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule can receive up to $1,158 in dental benefits over two calendar years, and we bulk bill it, so there is nothing to pay on the day.
