UQ Dental

I implore UQ students to read and consider this before booking this dentist. As one student to another:I came here regularly while I studied my PhD. It was cheap and Dr Anne seems to be experienced and to genuinely care about her patients. In order to make the cheap rates viable for a Dentist, the treatment is always quickly in/quickly out. In other words, all treatments such as fillings, cleaning, etc, are done as fast as possible to get you out the door. As a student you probably are willing to trade this for cheap dental treatment.However, looking back, there were several problems with my teeth that arose as a result of going to this dentist. For instance, I now have an extremely tight passage between two molars due to very poorly applied neighbouring fillings on the sides of those two teeth. Flossing there is now difficult, awkward and feels like I might rip one of the fillings out one day. Otherwise, several basic fillings I received here fell out within 2-18 months of being applied. To be clear, fillings should last more like 10 years, or longer. I have never had fillings fall out from any dentist, except here. Every time I had to go back to get the filling redone, more original tooth was drilled away. The more tooth taken away, the closer you come to needing to get a root canal. Which is exactly what happened to one of my teeth after a few rounds of filling/refilling it at this dentist.By this point, I'd had it with this dentist and decided to get my root canal and subsequent dental treatment at a different dental pratice elsewhere. Sure I pay more, but I haven't had any problems with any of the treatment I have received there so far.Long story short:You have a finite amount of real tooth for your whole life. Don't waste it here with poor fillings that need to get quickly replaced. You will probably end up spending more in the long run dealing with bad dental work here, like I did. Go to a good, moderately priced family dental practice instead and stop having problems with teeth for the rest of your life!This is not my real name.

I have been going to Dr. Anne for a few months now and she is always kind and does great work. I had two sore teeth imparticular and I haven't had any irritation since my work with her! She has booked me in consistently until my work was finished and I feel confident in my results and trust her work very much!! Thank you so much!!

Wish I had read the reviews before booking an appointment. I have to be careful with my money so I thought I would be wise by choosing a $30 checkup here. Nope!I booked an appointment for 9:30am and at the time I was reassured that although I started work at 10am at the uni, it would be plenty of time (the appointments are allocated 30 minutes).When I arrived at 9:30am on the day, another patient was having an appointment, fair enough. I waited patiently but as the clock drew closer to 9:45am, I asked the receptionist if I would still be able to be seen, as my work started in 15 minutes. She said it would be fine.The patient wasn’t finished with until just before 9:50, at which when I was supposed to go in, I asked the dentist if it would be better for me to reschedule. She was understanding that I had work, and suggested I come back when my shift was over to be seen properly. However, this suggestion was immediately shut down by the receptionist, saying it was unavailable and the system also wasn’t working so it wasn’t possible.At this point I should have just cancelled, but I’ve been in so much pain I really wanted an answer. I was seen by the dentist in less than 5 minutes, in which I was told I “needed” a $100 clean in addition to my treatment.It was a waste of money and time. The dentist was nice but the receptionist did not display the same level of customer service.

This place cost me a significant amount of money when I was a broke student, both fillings I got here were poorly done and had ledges and immediately started causing bleeding an gum inflammation, they claimed there was no problem with them. Other dentists disagreed…Seeing some of the reviews here I really question whether I needed fillings at all, if not they've damaged two of my teeth and will cost me thousands of dollars over my life on new fillings every 10 years and possibly crowns/implants for the most pathetic little profit.

Be careful! I had a filling fall out after a few days plus lots of other issues. Dentist was really unreasonable and rude about me mentioning the issues. Going to have to go somewhere more reputable to get everything fixed and spend a lot of extra money.

Dr Anne provided gentle and thorough treatment. Convenient positioning on campus and easy to book an appointment :)

I’m upset that when I came here, I expected it to be $30… walked out with a huge bill and also found out my health insurance covered none of it! I wouldn’t recommend this place because they basically talk you into getting extras, I was definitely not needing an X-ray but got talked into getting one, probably so they could just get more money off me. Not affordable for uni students!!

DO NOT GO THERE. 30 dollars check ups are a scam, not even written down simply less than 5 minutes spent of looking at your teeth. Everything is done in a rush, the dentist overbooks and then rushes through patients to meet deadlines. This place will take as much money as high quality dentist which this place is not. UQ services should be informed about this place as the University should care more about facilities at the campus.

Wisdom teeth consultation was free but I wanted to have mine removed while asleep which they don't do. Their prices were also quite high.Went to some place who gave a free consult and special price because I was a UQ student (some UQ union deal).I'd recommend UQ dental post their wisdom teeth removal fees online to save people time if possible.
