I’m a fairly anxious dental patient so it means a lot to me to find a dentist who is understanding and is gentle and reassuring, while also being highly capable. Also, the fee was very reasonable. I have found my forever dentist! I highly recommend Yarraville Dental.

I went here for a check up and clean and the atmosphere was awesome. offering a very proffesional and great service not to mention the understanding nature towards the high cost of dental work which health care doesnt always cover, they were genuine and wanted the best outcome for me, thanks again guys

I am so happy to have come across Yarraville Dental. After years of not going to the dentist due to shame and dental anxiety, I had an emergency dental procedure I needed done. From the start the team were so lovely and accommodating. Booking in was so easy. I first saw Dr Abbah who was wonderful. I needed to go in again last minute and was worried as Dr Abbah was not in, but trusted the reputation of the practice, and I saw Dr Lara who was equally wonderful. I can feel Dr Abbah & Dr Lara genuinely care, they are so knowledgeable and don’t judge at all just want to help. I am happy to say I enjoy going to the dentist now. I can’t thank you enough.

Dr Lara is an amazing dentist! She is very kind and reassuring and has done some incredible work on my very complicated teeth! She always lays out all your options and advises you from a place of care rather than just trying to push the most expensive treatments, as many other dentists do. The reception staff are also really friendly and accommodating.

I have been seeing Lara Khan for about a year now and I am very happy with her service. She explains things well and her work is good. I sent my partner to see her recently for a tooth issue and he was also impressed. Highly recommend!

I recently had my veneers done at Yarraville Dental with Dr Lara, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the very first consultation, Dr Lara was professional, approachable, and made me feel completely at ease. She explained the entire process clearly and took the time to ensure I was comfortable with every step.

The results have exceeded my expectations—my veneers look natural, beautiful, and I’ve already received so many compliments on my smile. What really stood out was not just the quality of the work, but also how affordable the treatment was compared to what I had expected for this level of care.

If you’re looking for a dentist who combines professionalism, skill, and genuine care with affordable options, I couldn’t recommend Dr Lara and the team at Yarraville Dental more highly.
