Excellence in Dentistry
Our mission is to give each patient the most professional, comfortable and gentle but thorough dental care, treating you as if you were a member of our own family.
We focus on providing excellent service and communicating well with our patients. We always carefully explain all treatment options so you can make an informed decision and feel as comfortable as possible with your dental treatment.
You can rest assured that at our Coffs Harbour, NSW dental surgery, you will receive dental treatments of the highest quality by a friendly, experienced dentist who will make your visit to the dentist as pleasant as possible. Many patients actually enjoy their time with us because we take the fear and discomfort out of dentistry.
Mastery of Leading Technology
We use the latest, most technologically advanced equipment and apply extremely high safety and hygiene standards. If you feel anxious about your dental treatment, have sensitive teeth or hate needles, we can help you relax with sedation dentistry services.
Technology like 3-D cone beam x-rays improves outcomes while the little comforts, such as televisions in our patient rooms, make your visit more enjoyable.
A Focus on Prevention
Our main goal is to help keep your teeth healthy and in excellent condition, so we only need to see our Coffs Harbour, NSW patients for regular dental check-ups with preventive dentistry. We want to help you avoid any major dental problems.
Both Dr Ward and our hygienist will always describe your conditions and treatment options in detail so you can make an informed choice about your smile. We know that everyone is different, and our approach to dentistry is to support your goals without judgment.
The long-term relationships we create with patients are based on trust and honesty.

Answering Your Most-Asked Questions
Are you accepting new patients?
Yes, we warmly welcome new patients of all ages. Dr Ward has experience dealing with your dental care in all stages of life.
Do you treat children?
At Arthur Street Dental, many of us have children, including Dr Ward, and we love welcoming little ones to our Coffs Harbour dental surgery. Seeing children from an early age gives them a head start on a lifetime of healthy smiles.
We see children as early as age two. This is when most children have a full set of 20 baby teeth, and it gives Dr Ward the opportunity to ensure everything is developing as it should. Preventive care is just as crucial for kids as it is for adults and is the best way to protect long-term oral health.
What if I have a dental emergency?
A dental emergency can be a traumatic experience for our Coffs Harbour, NSW patients, especially if pain is involved. We treat dental emergencies as quickly as possible, often arranging a same-day appointment.
The purpose of an emergency dental exam is to determine the cause of pain or the problem and to diagnose the condition. When you contact our Coffs Harbour dental surgery with a toothache or other oral health issue, our team will ask a few important questions to prepare for your arrival.
In most cases, we will start by taking an x-ray of the affected tooth or area to give Dr Ward valuable information. Once he determines the problem, he will address the pain and stabilise your condition.
Common dental emergencies we see at our Coffs Harbour, NSW dental surgery include:
- A broken tooth
- A knocked-out tooth
- A damaged or lost restoration
- Swelling or pain
If you have a toothache or dental emergency, we encourage you to contact our surgery right away. Dental pain may worsen with time and put your oral health at risk.
We always welcome new patients and will treat you like family. We prioritise dental emergencies and will help you get relief and a plan to restore your oral health and smile.
What are your clinic hours?
We are available for bookings from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, except for Thursdays when we are open until 6:00 pm. We invite you to call our Coffs Harbour, NSW dental clinic to schedule your next appointment.
What makes your clinic different?

Skill, experience and knowledge ensure that we provide great dentistry, but what makes our clinic truly shine is our commitment to developing long-term relationships with our patients based on trust, respect and communication.
Since we are a private dental clinic, you can count on consistency. You will see the same familiar faces at each visit and be greeted with a warm smile. What unites us as a team is our belief that our patients are the heart of our practice and the inspiration for everything we do.
From our comfortable and modern surgery to our dedication to presenting all treatment options and respecting our patients’ choices for their smiles, we hope that you feel confident, comfortable and valued while you are with us.
