"I attended Erko Dental after a friend recommended me, “they’re literally the sweetest people ever, and so good!” she said"

"The best Dentist I have ever been to and I have been to a few"
"Have seen both Mel and Angela here"
I attended Erko Dental after a friend recommended me, “they’re literally the sweetest people ever, and so good!” she said. She was not being even slightly hyperbolic. I saw Angela for my initial consultation (my first in a very long time, I am a bad adult) and she was not only extremely knowledgeable, but her calm energy put me at ease instantly. She discussed my teeth at length with me, and emailed through a thorough treatment plan with a cost breakdown for every foreseeable scenario. I saw David for my first ever filling shortly thereafter and I was a mess of anxiety walking in. He took the time to talk me through exactly what he was going to do, what it would feel like, and basically talked me back from the verge of tears I was sitting on, so by the time we started I was feeling confident and comfortable. He talked me through the process as it happened, explaining what things would feel like, and even when things were going to smell or taste yuck, basically taking away all of the “fear of the unknown”. What a legend! I can not recommend these guys highly enough, they’re professional, upfront about cost, and really great at what they do. The decor and vibe of the whole place is really cool too, and everyone is so friendly!
Came here instead of opting for a "cheaper" visit to a dentist my health fund would discount. I checked their website and after looking at their company mission statements and staff profiles, I felt this would be a much nicer and genuine experience for someone like me who is a bit nervous seeing a dentist. So glad I did - the difference was in the service, the tools, the team members and my experience. Every part of my care was explained thoughtfully to me and with advice as to next steps and outcomes. Despite regularly visiting dentists my whole life, my visit to Erko Dental was the first time a dentist explained to me the areas of brushing I should focus on for key teeth, with photos and advice. Overall a really pleasant experience and will now consider this my regular dental spot. Don't overlook this location because your health fund may offer you a bigger rebate somewhere else, the dollars you might save you lose in service and quality of care I have experienced here. Plus, the difference in cost is minimal anyway. So happy to support a local business in Erskineville, thank you!!
1 year update: Still the best dental practice in Australia. I usually hate dental appointments, but this place is an exception. Dr Melissa is incredibly skilled, kind, and comforting. Fillings have been great, much better than other fillings I’ve got. Cleanings have been fantastic. Everyone in the office is really friendly. Tropical is the best prophy paste. I won’t spoil the other ways the make the experience better. I overworry when it comes to my teeth, to the extent that I’ve flew to Canada once to see a specific dentist. So it’s really hard for me to find a dentist I like. My recommendation can’t be stronger or more unqualified. I’m grateful to Dr Melissa and the practice for existing. Go book an appointment, you won’t regret it. I have also heard great things about the owner, and treating staff well is something that’s really nice to hear in this world.
The best Dentist I have ever been to and I have been to a few. The practice is very welcoming and friendly environment, immediately helping with any nerves.. and I have alot when it comes to being in the dentist chair. Dr. Dave is a master at his profession, he naturally makes you feel at ease and is super skilled at his job. I almost didnt want to put up a review as I know whoever goes will never go to anyone else and it will make it harder to get appointments, but these guys deserve to be recognized for such high quality service always delivered with a smile. You always leave feeling they really care about doing the best they can for you-Worth every single penny every single time.
Have seen both Mel and Angela here. The most recent being extraction of a tooth by Angela. With an an almost psychopathic aversion to needles, I hate going to the dentist, however Angela made the whole experience painless. I must say, I didn't even feel the needle going into the roof palate which normally makes me jump through the roof. Very modern facilities, and a great attitude by all the staff, who are always friendly, and personable - an all round excellent experience. Loved that they range me and checked up on the pain levels a few days after the extraction as well - very professional and thoughtful. Highly recommend to others.
Great dental surgery! Highly recommend them. As soon as you walk in you are welcomed with a yummy fresh refreshment - you are made to feel at ease. We see Dr Dave and his chair side manner is fantastic. He really knows how to put the kids at ease. My 3 kids love going to see him as they get to lie on the chair and choose a show to watch on the ceiling while he is treating them - it's a fantastic distraction.... and another highlight is the goody bag they get to take home - it's a sure winner and it makes it so easy to say 'kids we are off to the dentist today'!
I was a very nervous referral patient who had been avoiding getting a dreaded wisdom tooth out for years (6). I was resolved to have it removed under a general anaesthetic but met with Dr David and then Angela who gave me a lot of comfort around the IV sedation / in chair option. I was still pretty reluctant when I fronted up for the extraction but can honestly say that I was in the best care possible and true to her word, I dont remember a thing! So very, very happy (and relieved...). Highly recommend.
These guys are the bees knees. I received a thorough treatment plan written in 'non-dentist' English, understandable for the average Joe. Pricing was fair and reasonable with the option to pay on a payment plan. I underwent 5 fillings and 2 extractions over the course of a couple months and endured no pain what so ever during or post-treatment, even after having 2 wisdoms removed. Mel is the business, cute also. I shan't be going anywhere else for as long as I'm living in Sydney. Thanks groovers!
Really terrible experience. I went back multiple times to a young dentist who didn't listen to me when I said my teeth felt strange. She claimed there was no problem and I had a tooth ache for 6mths. When I finally went back to a more senior dentist he recognised the problem and rectified it for free. Also they treated me like I wasn't in the room - dentist and dental nurse catching up like girlfriends at a bar whilst doing my teeth! The place has nice decor, but bad dentistry.
Dr. Dave is excellent. I recently changed my dentist to come to Erko dental and feel like my previous dentist was not up to speed on current dentistry practices. Dr. Dave is very professional but friendly and is up to speed with all current dentistry practices. Really thorough and they follow up with you to see how any dental work is going/feeling. I will be bringing my little girl here too for her first dentist appointment! They are very cool and family friendly :)
Dr David is just the best. He takes the time to explain any issues with my teeth or options for treatment. I had a front tooth crown done a couple of years back and have been super happy with the results. I'm ready to upgrade to an implant and while I know it'll be a big procedure, I am so glad that I go to Erko Dental. I know it will be a good result that I will be happy with and am actually looking forward to the planning session. Highly recommend Erko Dental.
First time patient at Erko Dental. David was thorough and gentle. I had small chip on my back tooth and David was very honest, he said that I didn't really need to get it filled as at the moment there was no other damage (I decided to get it filled anyway:). Like most, I don't really enjoy going to the dentist, but their friendly manner (and cool practice) means I'll definitely be back for my regular check-up and cleans. Plus - love that dentist clean feeling:)
Great with kids! We have been going to Erko Dental for a while now and have always had excellent experiences. Recently we took our 2 year old for her first visit and it was an incredibly positive experience. Dr Nika got down to her level to say hello, then was calm and kind throughout, including her and consulting with her. She now loves the dentist and can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!
Probably the most comfortable experiences at the dentist ever. Receptionist is incredibly lovely and understanding; Dr David Leong was thorough; the set up meant that all photos and X-rays are done in chair and shown in front of you and was explained incredibly well, and was able to work around my TMJ issues. And on top of it, they had a payment cap for new patients. Would highly recommend.
Dave the dentist was amazing with my Mr 9. He talked him through what he was going to do/what it would feel like . Mr 9 felt calm and happy all the way through and loved the special goodie bag. They did a x-ray and talked me through how many more baby teeth were to come out and also did before clean photo and after so my son could see the difference. Just so happy with Erko dental.
Erko Dental are quite simply the best dentist practice I have ever been to. Having a huge fear of dentists after a very traumatic experience in my 20s which still causes me nightmares - the team at Erko Dental went above and beyond to make me feel SAFE. You couldn’t be in better hands than this wonderful team. Also - happy gas is for adults too! Who knew?! Thanks so much x
We saw Dave this morning for the first time. Very impressed with his rapport with my eight year old. We both received a nice long chat before our check up which is nice when you are going to a new dentist for the first time. Everything was explained thoroughly. The practice is very modern and professional and the staff are lovely. The dental show bag was a hit too.
I recently visited this dentist in Erskineville and cannot recommend it highly enough. When you walk in it's more like a boutique hotel than a dental practice! The staff are super friendly and for someone who is not a massive fan of going to the dentist they really made me feel at ease. Without a doubt the best dentist I’ve ever been to.
Absolutely lovely dental practice, full of friendly, competent and professional staff. I went back for my second appointment today with Dave, and couldn't be happier with the whole experience. I was given a thorough treatment plan and had everything clearly explained to me before they went ahead with anything. Highly recommended.
Dr Leong actually gave me the impression that he cared about what happens to my teeth in the long run, for the sake of my teeth. Which is key and great, especially combined with that he is and all the other staff there are super friendly, the practice is lovely, and the tech is super hi tech and fun. 10/10 go to the dentist
Had my very first appointment with a check-up and clean today. Dr. Dave has given me a very clear picture of my current situation - great transparency and very detailed explanation that immediately establishes trust. On top of that he uses the latest technologies and has a lovely atmosphere in the clinic. Highly recommend!
I had a great experience at Erko dental today with Nika. My husband had been there a couple of times prior and highly recommended it, which I do now as well! I had an initial examination/clean etc which seemed reasonably priced. Thanks for the great atmosphere and service making a dental visit more pleasant! :)
After my visit this afternoon it is the first time I can genuinely say I had a good time at the dentist. It was my first time at Erko Dental and from the moment I walked in I felt welcomed and cared for. I was really well informed about my teeth and my options and left feeling very relieved. Highly recommend!
Have been to Erko dental a few times now and cannot fault it. I've had cleans, fillings, whitening and wisdom teeth extraction done by both Dr Dave and Dr Angela. They are both professional, gentle and very patient. I have also taken my toddler for a first time check up and they were great with her. 5 stars.
Very thorough, professional and friendly. I have had a lot of things done over the past years and can tell the diffrenence in quality and care. You definitely do not need to fear that you get talked into unnecessary or overpriced treatments. David is one of the best dentists I have ever been to!
After an initial consultation, Mel and her assistant did a most excellent job on my root canal, for starters. After too many years of deferred maintenance and a good amount of research most recently, I now have complete confidence in the team at Erko Dental. Very reasonable rates too.
Incredible experience. Staff are all friendly and fun. Convenient and cool location. Nika was so knowledgeable, caring, and thorough. I felt listened to, reassured, and I have a clear and holistic plan for my dental health thanks to them. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!
Honestly this is the best dental surgery ever. I have a huge fear of dentist stemming from a bad experience somewhere else and the staff here are so amazing. They go above and beyond. The team here are fantastic and the reviews speak for themselves. Thank you again for everything.
David is one of the best dentists I have ever been to! Very thorough, professional and fantastic at dealing with anyone with dental anxiety. The Erko Dental suites are very cool too! I always look forward to seeing what fun and relevant drawing is on their blackboard.
Never thought I'd say this about a dental practice but it was an excellent experience! Extremely friendly staff who actually listen and seem to genuinely care about your oral health. Great atmosphere and thorough examination. I won't be avoiding the dentist anymore.
Really great dentist. Cool setting, relaxing atmosphere and super friendly staff. I got told I need to floss more, though EDIT: 2 years later: took the daughter here for her first visit and they were amazing! And didn't judge me for taking 2 years to come back.
I was able to book an appointment on the same day. Nika and her assistant were very thorough and took the time to explain everything to me. The Clinic is also very nice. I got given a goodie bag by the end of my treatment which was a pleasant surprise.
I just had my first dental appointment post-Erko and I have admit, the first thing I thought as I sat down in the chair was how much I missed Erko Dental. You guys really are the best in comfort and professionalism and it doesn't go unnoticed <3
Had a great treatment with the lovely Nika. First time patient at Erko Dental and will definitely be going back there. Felt so at ease and comfortable with Nika who explained everything thoroughly and really knew her stuff! Thanks team!
I went to Erko dental today, it was my first visit to the denist in ages! Anyway, the practice is really clean and has a nice relaxing atmosphere. Nika my dentist was really careful and thorough throughout. Will definitely be back!
I had my first visit to Erko dental today and couldn’t be more pleased. I am a very anxious patient and avoid the dentist. Dave was so lovely, patient and kind. Talked me through everything and made my visit a positive experience.
Didn't think I'd ever have a ‘favourite dentist’ but here we are. Dr Dave & Dr Angela are remarkably friendly and attentive. The clinic itself is something else: TVs on the ceiling and dental puns on the wall, what's not to love?
Erko Dental was a huge game changer for me! After years of awful experiences with different clinics, I found Erko Dental last year and every visit has been professional, friendly and painless. Dr David is amazing!
Local and terrific. If you want Invisalign, Dave is your man to see. He is definitely an expert in his field. Along with his amazing team, you don’t have the dreaded feeling of going to see the dentist anymore.
Absolutely fanatic experience. Nika was super friendly and thorough. Explained everything well and gave options. The whole practice is well laid out, modern, and well equipped while being super inclusive.
Absolutely the best dentist I've ever been too! The staff are lovely, the service professional, and after care check-ups so nice. Thank you, I really do feel I'm in the best of hands at Erko dental :)
Was made to wait for 35 minutes before being told that I would need to reschedule. I would recommend going somewhere with better time management skills and capacity to predict appointment duration.
Excellent dentist practice. Great service! I highly recommend these guys. The personal attention by Nika and her assistant were fantastic. I am definitely recommending this practice to friends.
Went to Erko Dental for a new patient check in/scale and clean. Was really impressed with how thorough they were. If you are looking for a kind, LGBTQIA+ friendly dentist, give them a go!
Dr Dave was fantastic, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Very skilled and knowledgable - kept me informed every step of the way. The practice is lovely and modern too!
The staff and service at Erko Dental is fantastic. I couldn't ever imagine looking forward to going to the dentist but now I genuinely do! I can't recommend Erko Dental highly enough.
Friendly, thorough and good attention to detail as well as being on the front foot when it comes to open communication and sharing treatment plans with clients. Highly recommended
Dr Nika was excellent. She was superb with my 5 year old daughter also, to the extent she is now playing dentist at home! Highly recommended for adults and especially children.
Been twice, had an excellent experience both times. Have had both extraction and cleaning done here with positive experience. Very friendly and professional, great suite.
Fabulous staff and Nika is wonderful. These guys don't charge for unnecessary extras compared to previous dentists I've seen. The best in the hood, hands down.
We are so lucky to have this excellent dental surgery in our community. Our family have been super well supported. Thanks to everyone at Erko Dental.
After years of looking for a good dentist, Erko Dental is the new home for my oral health! The dentists and staff there really go the extra mile! :)
Had a wonderful experience at the dentist this morning with Melissa. She is so professional & gentle. Highly recommend this practice & Melissa!!
Highly recommend this practice. An amazing experience from start to finish. Warm, welcoming and informative staff. Won't ever go anywhere else.
Recommended by my girlfriend who works here. All staff are experienced, friendly, and considerate. I Would highly recommend them to anybody.
Had a great experience with David and the rest of the team. Very professional, thorough and friendly. Can highly recommend it.
Dr David is friendly, professional and thorough. Presents all the options for treatment plans and genuinely cares.
The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Probably the best dentist I've been to.
David and Melissa are brilliant and particularly good with a nervous tween (now teen).
So far so good, thanks again for the friendly environment and professional service.
Very friendly staff and always a nice experience having dental work done here
They really are good. I like the goody bag you get on your first visit too.
Dr David is very nice and does a great job advising and treating.
I hate the dentist but these guys make it hard to hate them.
Nika and Nikita were wonderful best dentist ever!!!
Really great un-dentisty practice, in a good way.
Friendly staff and great service
