POPULAR SERVICES WE OFFER
Our Treatments
IV Sedation & General Anaesthetic
Sleep Dentistry
If fear or anxiety has been keeping you out of the dentist’s chair, sleep dentistry may be worth considering. Using IV sedation or general anaesthetic, we can carry out a wide range of treatments, from routine check-ups through to more complex procedures, while you rest comfortably. For many patients, it makes dental care feel manageable again.
Payment Plans
At Anzac Avenue Dental, we know dental treatment doesn’t always fit neatly into your budget, so we offer a range of flexible payment plan options to make it easier.
