General Questions

What happens during a child’s dental visit?

Going to the dentist doesn’t have to be scary! We want your child’s experience at our clinic to be as comfortable and relaxing as possible. While waiting for their appointment, kids can play or relax in our dedicated children’s play room, equipped with iPad games, Lego, books and soft toys. Young children will be given their very own Sailors Bay Dentistry passport to record their check-ups and a free gift with each visit. Inside the dental surgery, they can watch TV or listen to music with headphones to keep them occupied while their dentist examines or treats their mouth. If we think your child could benefit from a treatment, we’ll discuss all the options with you and give you all the information you need to make an informed decision.

Are there parking options?

There is free, secure parking available under the building. You can enter from Strathallen Ave. Heading north it’s the last driveway on the left just before the bus stop before Sailors Bay Road. Please press the intercom button if the garage door is closed. Sailors Bay spots are around the back to the right. Walk up internal stairs to ground floor and into reception. Wheelchair access is also available from the carpark.

How does your drop-off and pick-up zone work?

A drop-off and pick-up zone is available for our patients that require assistance or are using taxis or hire cars. It is located at the top of the laneway adjacent to the building. Enter via the garage driveway off Strathallen Avenue. Drive through and exit up the laneway to the zone marked at the end just before Sailors Bay Road.

Is there wheelchair access?

Wheelchair access is available from our car park via lift or directly at street level entry.
