About Us
Dental Gigi is all about providing you with the highest quality dental treatment and the very best care to you as a patient.
We view our patients health and oral care as our direct responsibility and do everything we can to ensure they have the best set of teeth possible. Our team is strong, cohesive and friendly and our patients often say that they have never encountered dental clinics like ours.
The reason is simple and that is we provide the best service and go out of our way to taking a direct vested interest in the oral care of our patients. We build a long term partnership and relationship with you!
Amongst all of that, our prices are very affordable and most of our patients who come to our practice pay nothing or almost nothing after they claim back from their health funds.
We have a 99% recommendation rate on HealthEngine, 5/5 on Whitecoat and approximately 5/5 on Google with most of our patients being word of mouth referrals from existing patients! We are all about quality dentistry. At the same time you pay $0 out of pocket for check ups and cleans if you have any health fund! Win.
