Our Dental Services in Canberra City
Hobart Place Dental provides a range of quality dental services in Canberra City.

Preventative Care
The dentists at our clinic in Canberra City focus heavily on preventative dentistry. Dr Felix is a great believer in the adage: “prevention is better than cure.” We provide a number of preventative dental services, including periodic examinations covering teeth and gums, fissure sealing, occlusal splints to treat bruxism and TMD / TMJ, and mouthguards for contact sport.
Tooth Coloured Fillings
Hobart Place Dental provides quality dental fillings in Canberra City. Our tooth fillings are made from coloured composite resin to match your other teeth. We use composite resin to fill cavities, repair chips, and fix broken teeth. Many patients replace old amalgam fillings with composite resin ones. Our dentists in Canberra use an advanced LED curing light to harden the resin after shaping.
Crowns, Bridges, and Veneers
If you’re seeking to improve your smile or replace lost or rotten teeth, Hobart Place Dental offers several solutions. Our dentists measure and fit dental crowns, bridges and veneers in Canberra City. Although gold is an option, most of the crowns, bridges, and veneers we provide are made from tooth coloured porcelain.
Dental Implants
Our dentists work in tandem with an external periodontist to provide dental implants in Canberra City. Although the implant process is involved, dental implants offer many advantages: they’re more convenient than dentures, preserve the jawbone, and help maintain the shape of your face. We use renowned Straumann dental implants at our dental clinic in Canberra City.
Teeth Whitening
We use the Philips Zoom whitening system at our dental clinic in Canberra City. Patients can have their teeth whitened at the clinic or opt for a take-home teeth whitening kit. Patients who choose the take-home option still need to visit the clinic in Canberra City so a dentist can take impressions of their teeth.
Dentures
Dentures are a cheaper alternative to dental implants in Canberra. Dentures are false teeth that replace missing teeth. Dentures are made from acrylic resin, feature a base plate, and look like real teeth. The dentists at our Canberra City clinic can measure and fit both partial and full dentures. Our dentists also provide temporary dentures and perform denture repairs and relines.
Dentistry with a View
Our surgery sits on the 10th floor of the AMP Building, looking out over Canberra City. Our friendly staff will be able to assist you with making an appointment or answering any questions you may have. New patients are always welcome.
