Centre of Dental Excellence

"Went there throughout high school up until I was 24. They horribly botched a root canal - capping my tooth with decay still inside which led to a huge build up of pressure and the most excruciating pain in my life ; and doing an uneven cap that made my jaw uneven. I went to a&e three times over the weekend while they were closed and even the tramydol didnt help. When i went in for the do-over the dentist injected my tongue with anesthetic instead of my gum - and then argued with me over weather or not she did ; despite the fact my tongue was bleeding - it stayed numb for over 48 hours. Now I am having issues with fillings I had done there in high school that again were uneven and have worn at the surrounding teeth. Just pay the extra money and go to Simes De Silva in town - I had to get them to fix up this mess."

"Highly recommend, Kara is amazing and put so much care and time into my teeth. I have dental anxiety and the whole team made me feel very comfortable and they were so non judgmental!"

"Usually I am not comfortable with dental but Dental Excellence was amazing. The receptionist was so kind and straight forward. Kara the hygienist is so professional and talked me through the whole procedure, which settled my nerves. Highly recommend, will visit again. P.S love the wallpaper so much"

"Fantastic experience getting an exam and x-rays today. Was my first time there as I’ve just moved to Tawa. All the staff were really friendly and helpful as I had my 2 year old and 8 month old with me and didn’t realise there were stairs until I got there with the pram. The receptionist helped me get us all up stairs, chatted to the kids and kept them happy during my appt and helped us get out at the end. Very thorough and kind dentist, the consult wasn’t rushed nor too dragged out and he gave me great advice on caring for my teeth and answered a couple of questions I had about my toddlers teeth. Even got it half price with the coupon from the local magazine! Will definitely be my regular dentist from now on."

"I'm thoroughly thrilled with my service at Centre of Dental Excellence. I had my first appointment with Jaideep who was extremely friendly and polite and very gentle and informative - he gave me some excellent advice on how to care for my teeth going forward. I followed up my appointment with Alisha - the hygienist - who was an absolute delight! I won't admit how many years it's been since I've seen a hygienist (I put it off due to the fear of pain!) but Alisha was extremely caring and sympathetic to my feelings - she was incredibly gentle and taught me more about my teeth and how to care for them properly than any other hygienist has before her - she even did a Google image search so that I could clearly understand my condition and how to move forward now before further damage. I highly recommend Centre of Dental Excellence in Tawa - they're even had a fancy new face-lift (images added to this review!)."
