Starting with a new dentist can feel like a big step. At Nedlands Dental, we have made it straightforward. For just $199, new patients receive a complete first appointment covering the four things every healthy mouth needs. No hidden costs, no upselling on the day.

What's Included

Comprehensive examination

A full assessment of your teeth, gums, bite and oral health. Your dentist checks for decay, gum disease and early signs of other concerns. This is the foundation of good preventive care, and it is not rushed.

Professional clean

Even with regular brushing at home, plaque hardens into tartar over time and can only be removed by a professional. Our hygienist clears build-up from the teeth and gumline, leaving your mouth genuinely clean.

Two intraoral X-rays

Digital X-rays let us see between teeth and below the gumline, areas that a visual check simply cannot reach. We use modern equipment that is fast, accurate and uses far less radiation than older film-based systems.

Fluoride treatment

A professional fluoride application strengthens enamel, helps remineralise early areas of decay and reduces sensitivity. It takes just a couple of minutes and is a worthwhile finish to the appointment.

What this would normally cost

Separately, these four treatments typically run to around $345 at a Perth dental clinic. As a new patient offer, we have packaged them together for $199 so there are no surprises at checkout.

If you hold private health insurance with dental extras, you may be able to claim a rebate on the visit on top of the offer price. We accept all major health funds via HICAPS, so you only pay the gap on the day.

What happens after your first visit?

Once we have completed your new patient appointment, your dentist will talk through any findings and discuss what, if anything, needs attention. There is no pressure. You will leave with a clear picture of where your oral health stands and a practical plan if any follow-up is needed.

From here, most patients settle into a six-monthly recall schedule. Depending on your situation, that might include:

• Ongoing preventive care and hygiene visits
• Teeth whitening or Philips Zoom if you want a brighter result
• Invisalign if alignment is something you have been thinking about (free consultations available)
• Dental implants, crowns or bridges if you have gaps or damaged teeth to address
• Children's dentistry if you are bringing the family along too

Why patients choose Nedlands Dental

We have been looking after patients in the Nedlands area for over two decades. The practice was founded by Dr Clifford Yudelman and has been led by Dr Hoda Foroughi since 2019. Dr Foroughi has over 15 years of experience in private practice and is well qualified across all areas of general dentistry.

Beyond the clinical side, we have put a lot of thought into making appointments genuinely comfortable:

• We run on time. We respect that you have a schedule.
• Complimentary barista coffee for you and anyone who comes along.
• Ceiling-mounted TV so you can watch Netflix or stream music during your visit.
• We use The Wand (STA) for virtually painless local anaesthetic when needed.
• Emergency slots held every day so you can always get in when something comes up.

Who can claim the new patient offer?

The $199 special is available to patients who have not visited Nedlands Dental before. One offer per person. Standard fees apply from your second appointment onwards.

We welcome new patients from Nedlands and surrounding suburbs including Cottesloe, Claremont, Jolimont, Subiaco, Crawley and across the wider Perth metro area. See our service areas page for more detail.
