Family Dental Care for Mooroolbark Residents

Mooroolbark is one of the closest suburbs to The Fine Tooth Company, about 3 km east along Mt Dandenong Rd. The drive is roughly 5 minutes, which is short enough that a lot of our Mooroolbark patients treat us as their regular family dentist rather than driving further. This page covers how to find us, what we offer Mooroolbark families, who looks after you when you arrive, what it costs, and how to book.

Why do Mooroolbark families choose The Fine Tooth Company?

Mooroolbark is a family suburb east of Croydon, with a growing population and a younger family demographic. Many Mooroolbark families are looking for a clinic that can see all the family members under one roof, with the kind of continuity that means the dentist knows your mouth and your history. The Fine Tooth Company has been that clinic for Mooroolbark families for years. Mooroolbark sits within the Yarra Ranges Shire, and we are a short trip down Mt Dandenong Rd into Croydon — close enough that many families book back-to-back appointments for the kids and the adults on the same day.

The trip is straightforward: Mt Dandenong Rd runs straight through from Mooroolbark past Mooroolbark Terrace, Mooroolbark Railway Station, and Hookey Park, and into Croydon.

Most Mooroolbark families use us as their regular clinic, with check-ups, cleans, fillings, mouthguards, and orthodontic reviews all happening at the Croydon location. Larger work (orthodontics, complex restorative, implants) is either treated in-house at the Croydon location or coordinated with a specialist we work with regularly. You do not need to navigate the referral process on your own.

Do you see children from Mooroolbark?

Yes. We see children of all ages, from babies getting their first tooth through to teenagers. The first visit for a young child is a short, gentle introduction to the surgery so they get used to the sounds and the chair before any treatment. Eligible kids are bulk-billed under the CDBS for check-ups, cleans, X-rays, fissure sealants, and fillings.

Eligible kids are bulk-billed under the CDBS for check-ups, cleans, X-rays, fissure sealants, and fillings. For teenagers, we also do orthodontic assessments, mouthguards for sport, and wisdom teeth reviews as the adult teeth come through. Most Mooroolbark families end up using us as the regular clinic for the kids, with one parent bringing them in on the way home from school or sport on a Saturday morning.
