Dr. Sapphire is an exceptional dentist—friendly, fast, and highly experienced. Her work on my teeth was flawless, and she made the entire process comfortable and stress-free. She kept me informed every step of the way, clarifying what was needed and taking the time to explain natural dental care. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend this clinic. From the friendliness of all the staff to the compassion that Dr David shows throughout the treatment. A dentist that really listens and wants the best not just for your teeth but for your lifestyle and overall health.

I just had a clean today. The service was, and always is, wonderful. I so love modern dentistry. 😁
Dr David and his staff are always very welcoming and interested in what is happening in your life. It’s a pleasure to attend. Merry Christmas to you all. See you in 2025. 🎄🎄

If you are looking for excellent dental services then Dr David and his team are the perfect fit, as they are not only professional but knowledgeable, helpful and friendly also and I would highly recommend them.

Today's appointment was regarding a dental cone beam scan that was done and the treatment options recommended. I found the recommendations made extremely helpful and will be endeavouring to follow through with the information given before my next dental visit.

Cannot recommend David and the amazing team behind this business. I am from Cairns and traveled to see him to find out the issues I thought I had with my teeth I didn't but what he found was an infection in a tooth I'd had no drama with. Two visits later, and extraction of tooth and 7mm ball of infection which had been wreaking havoc with my sinus for I don't even know hpw long and I feel a totally different person.

Sinus has cleared and brain fog gone, I have energy for days all because I was harboring an infection I wasn't even aware I had.

I would recommend everyone go and see David even if you thibk you've got not dental issues.

I attended this practice in late May 2024 as a new customer. They could not accommodate a cleaning and a dentist check up on the same day, so they booked me firstly for the dentist check up, and I returned at a later date for the cleaning.
It is my opinion that the cost was extremely high for the services rendered.
I was due to attend for a 6 monthly clean last week and cancelled at short notice because I felt uncomfortable proceeding with a dental practice with such high costs.
I notified the practice by email after the cancellation to explain my perspective, expressing concern at such high fees.
Dr Cowhig replied to me a few days later, which was appreciated. He said he was sorry that I felt that they were not upfront with their fees and directed me to the welcome email from them that outlined all the possible fees.
I think from reading reviews this practice may be quite good for people with various complex dental needs.
For transparency, I paid $805 for a dentist check up, a Ct cone beam scan, scaling and cleaning, and various photos and other checks. A simple google reveals that an average cost of dentist check-in with cleaning and scans in QLD is under $300. I believe this would be for x-ray and not a CT cone beam scan which would cost more.
I write this review just to flag with possible new clients that the fees at this practice seem quite a lot higher than elsewhere.
Of course, One could say I did all of this knowingly since I received that lovely welcome email. That is definitely fair.
The practice itself is beautiful, clean, friendly, professional. They give you various toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, pots of coconut oil etc for oil pulling. All very lovely, but probably not worth an extra money in my humble opinion.
I wish the practice all the best with their business, I am simply making this honest review so other people can be aware that a new patient check in with this practice can cost upwards $800.

I have been getting anxiety about visiting the dentist for many years.
Have been having some health issues and was recommended to see Dr Cowhig and the anxiety was even higher and my experience has been nothing but positive and amazing informative. The staff were caring and lovely. Dr Cowhig was informative and gave me reassurance and made me feel informed and understood my situation. I'm looking forward to coming back to get the issues sorted now

Dr Sapphire was personable and professional and allowed my 14 year old daughter a really good experience for her first filling and needle. Thank you so much
