About us
A family dental home on Cape St
Dickson Dental on Cape is a family dental clinic in Dickson, in Canberra's inner north. We look after children, teenagers and adults — often several generations of the same family — under one roof.

Our approach
Built around time to listen
Our principal dentist, Dr Kaur, wants the clinic to feel calm and unhurried — a place where people feel listened to.
Appointments leave time for questions. Treatment options are explained in plain language, with costs discussed before anything starts. And for children, we look beyond the teeth at how the jaws, bite, habits and breathing are developing.
Our mission
“To give every patient — from a toddler's first check-up to a grandparent's crown — honest advice, unhurried care and a dental home they trust for years.”
Inside the clinic
Step inside before you visit
Light timber, soft lighting and quiet treatment rooms, so you know what to expect before you arrive. Instruments are cleaned and sterilised in their own room, with separate clean and dirty areas.

What we value
How we work with you
- 01
We listen first
Your first visit starts with your questions and goals, not with the chair tipping back.
- 02
Honest advice
We explain what we see, what your options are (including waiting and watching), and what each one costs.
- 03
Care that fits you
Your plan is built around your mouth, your timing and your budget — not a package.
- 04
Comfort matters
We go at your pace, explain each step and stop whenever you need a break.

Meet Dr Amandeep Kaur
Dr Kaur loves helping families look after their teeth from the very first visit, and takes extra time with anyone who feels nervous.
She has a particular interest in children's dentistry, how children's jaws and bites develop, orthodontics and clear aligners, and cosmetic dentistry. Most of all, she wants you to leave every appointment understanding what's happening in your mouth, and why.

What we won't do
Plain facts, not marketing
As a registered health service, we don't publish patient testimonials or before-and-after photos, and we don't promise outcomes. We'll explain what's realistic for you, in person.
