Our Difference

Our mission is to provide consistently quality dentistry in a homely, calming environment

Mission Statement
Pymble Dental Practice is the reliable and trusted beacon in the North Shore for comprehensive and quality dental health care.

We are an experienced and coordinated team lead by approachable and ethical practitioners with an unwavering dedication to doing our best by all patients.

Our practice is presented as a calming and homely environment, whilst also utilising modern equipment and technologies to ensure clinical excellence in a familiar setting.

We are engaged with the local community and further afar, and have an excellent collegiate relationship with all dental and medical specialists we entrust to help care for our patients.

We are proud that our patients value our advice, skill and care, as well as the time and consideration we dedicate to ensure the optimum patient experience.

Quality Dentistry

Our dentists are highly educated and awarded, with reputations for being clinically diligent as well as very personable. Our dentists have been selected for their experience, with all having at least 10 years in private practice, as well as for their dedication to continuing education. Dr Farrington and Dr Lehane have completed a wide array of continuing education courses, including university tertiary post graduate programs. As a patient, it is often hard to gauge how ‘good’ your dentist actually is at their clinical work.

Our nurses can vouch that the current dentists we have are the best they have worked for!

We are proud to announce that we became accredited under new Commonwealth Government Guideline’s from 2013. You will be pleased to know that we were one of the first 3 dental practices on the North Shore and indeed first 100 in the whole of Australia to achieve this.

Homely Environment

We have created a unique dental practice by combining the latest and best dental equipment housed within a private and heritage listed residence, which does not feel like a dental practice. The effect of this is a calming and non-confrontational environment whereby our patients can be assured they are getting the best advice and treatment without feeling like they are sitting in an interrogation room with a blinding light being flashed into their eyes.

Our garden, veranda, waiting room and surgeries have all been designed so as to enhance the effect of quality, cleanliness, and calm.

Modern technology

Dentistry has come light years since the ‘drill and fill’. Without adopting newer technologies, the older generation of dentists may be providing an inferior service without even knowing it.

We are proud to provide the newest, yet proven, technologies that make dentistry that much better.

· Digital intraoral and Panoramic x rays: We have installed digital x ray sensors and a panoramic x ray machine which are both safer and provide a better image than their film predecessors. This means better images, less radiation. Better images save you costly and invasive procedures, because we can detect problems ahead of time when they may require more involved treatment. Less radiation means that we can use lower dose x rays more frequently to monitor your dental health more closely without fear of side effects.

· New Dental Chairs: Our dental chairs have been selected for comfort by Dr Farrington’s pregnant wife; a harsh critic. Many of our patients have remarked how comfortable these chairs are! On a more selfish note, the chairs were also selected for their functionality for our dentists, boasting power and precision in their handpieces, and having monitors for which to display photos and x rays for both dentist and patient to view together.

· Sterilisation equipment: Our Melag Autoclave is regularly reviewed as the best on the market. This machine puts our equipment through heat and pressure with stringent precision to ensure all of our equipment comes out absolutely sterile. Each piece of equipment is bagged in a pack which also allows us to check that the sterilisation process is complete, and each bag is barcode scanned to our individual patient files. We use environmentally friendly disposable consumables where appropriate,

· Rotary endodontics: Root canal procedures are more time efficient, less painful and better since the advent of “rotary endodontics”. This is the use of a torque controlled motor, and single-use nickel titanium files to navigate often complicated root canal systems more efficiently and effectively.

· Surgical motors and Implants: Dr Farrington has invested in an NSK surgical motor, and Straumann surgical kits to be able to safely and cleanly place dental implants. Straumann Dental Implants are some of the most proven by clinical studies, and have the reputation for being consistently in the top 3 dental implant brands out of the 1000s of implant brands in the world.

What are The Advantages

Practical & Honest Advice

Dentistry can be overwhelming, scary and daunting for many people. We aim to be empathetic, practical and transparent when it comes to advice and treatment planning. It is in both our patients, and our own best interests, to provide preventative and quality treatment so we may enjoy a long and happy professional relationship with you.

Our team have been trained and indoctrinated to be as caring and understanding as our dentists.

Our practice boasts many features that stand us above a commercial space dental practice; These include dedicated parking & Wheelchair access, ease of access throughout practice, proximity to public transport, weekend and late night availability, after hour’s emergency service and direct contact to a dentist at any time of the day or night.

Clinical Excellence

Pymble Dental Practice is an accredited practice. The accreditation of private dental practices is based on the integration of a set of Australian Government National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards into everyday practice culture and patient safety. These standards harmonise regulatory requirements passed down by both Federal and State governments, with highlights being the demonstration of clear and evidence-based patient benefits when visiting an accredited practice, as well as confidence in our strict infection control and sterilisation procedures.
