Four generations caring
for our community.
Caring for Hurstville families for over 70 years, we pride ourselves on continuity and the same welcoming faces you've known for decades.
Our practice
A neighbourhood place, not a corporate one.
Dora Street Dental is a small, family-run practice in the heart of Hurstville, caring for the local community across generations.
That continuity is the point. The treatment you had done in 2002 is still being monitored in the same surgery. We use modern equipment and current techniques, but we deliver them with the patience of a practice that knows there's no rush.
We treat every age group, from a child's very first visit through to careful, considered work for adults, implants, veneers, full-mouth rehab. The mix of routine and complex work keeps us sharp. The neighbourhood keeps us honest.
We're not a big corporate clinic, and we like it that way.Same trusted team, same personalised care.
