Why Gumdent
Dentistry that feels different the moment you walk in
We built Gumdent around a simple idea. High quality dental care should not feel cold or clinical. Here is what that looks like.
Highly trained professionals
Our practitioners have dedicated their careers to gentle, precise dentistry, with decades of combined experience across general, children’s and complex care.
Personalised dental care
Every patient is unique. We take the time to listen, answer your questions, and build a treatment plan around your goals, never a generic approach.
State of the art facilities
Advanced diagnostics and modern equipment in a bright, spotless surgery, for more accurate results, faster treatment and a calmer visit.
What we offer
Complete dental care, all under one roof
From routine checkups to full smile transformations, comprehensive treatment for every member of your family.
Eligible kids can receive up to $1,132 of dental care over two years, completely bulk billed, under Medicare’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule. Checkups, cleans, fillings and more, at no cost to you.
A caring, multilingual team with decades of combined experience across every area of dentistry.
George Alvarez
Fillings and gum treatment

Reviews
Rated 5.0 by 154 Ringwood patients
The words that come up most often in our Google reviews are gentle, thorough and clear explanations. That is not an accident, it is how we have chosen to run the practice.
Truly a 5 star service! From the moment I walked in, the staff were warm, welcoming, and professional. The dentist took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment.

We can’t thank Dr. George enough for taking such great care of our daughter. After seeing three different dentists in the city, he was the only one who truly solved the problem.

I just had teeth filling with George this morning. I felt fortunate to find him to help me. As comments by others, George operates gently meanwhile he cares about how patient feels. He constantly ask me if I'm OK and give me some breaks.
