Dentist in Warrnambool
Your dentist, in the middle of Warrnambool.
There is a lot to be said for a dentist you can walk to. Lava Street Dental sits in the Warrnambool CBD, so an appointment can be folded into a morning that already involved the bank and the shopping rather than becoming an errand of its own.
The practice is small and run by one dentist. Dr Meg Takiguchi will see her own patients at every visit, which is the main reason she is opening her own surgery here.
What we offer
- Check-ups & cleans — a full examination, then a clean using warm water, air and a fine powder
- Fillings — tooth-coloured, placed conservatively
- Children’s dentistry — from the first teeth
- Gum disease treatment — assessment, measurement and treatment
- Crowns & bridges — made by a dental laboratory rather than milled on the day
- Root canal treatment — including molars
- Dental implants — assessment, placement and restoration
- Extractions — simple and surgical
- Partial dentures, mouthguards and night guards
Digital scanning and 3D CBCT imaging are on site. From opening in December 2026, we will hold two same-day emergency appointments each day; ring first thing in the morning to secure one.
