Welcome.
Shepherds Hill Dental Centre was established in 1974 in the same location in Blackwood, Adelaide. Each of our spacious treatment rooms comes complete with a huge picture window with garden views and the latest in modern dental technology.
Our family centred practice was tailor-designed to help you and your family members feel at ease in a warm, caring and genuine environment. From the person who picks up the phone, or Natalie who greets you when you visit us all the way through to the dentist you will meet, every member of our friendly team will make sure that you are given all the options, alternatives and information that you need to make a confident and well informed decision about the dental treatment that is best for you.
We provide a full range of dental treatments and services, so patients can sit back and relax using our video glasses during their treatment. We also have access to a network of Adelaide’s best dental specialist services.
