March 8th, 2026Crafting smiles with care – for generations

For three generations Davies Dental has looked after dental care in Ballarat, Maryborough and Melton – and from next month they will be in Daylesford too.
The clinic excels in prosthetic dental solutions, specialising in full dentures, partial dentures, and implant-retained dentures. It also offers custom-fitted mouthguards for sports and other activities.
Director Ben Davies said the family company was known for the gentle touch of its prosthetists and its commitment to using the latest state-of-the-art equipment, including advanced 3D digital denture technology.
“During your consultation, we can discuss our digital technology and the options available to you. This allows us to recommend the best solution for each individual, whether that involves modern digital techniques or more conventional methods.
“Many patients have some anxiety about dental visits but our clinics are all about looking after our clients every step of the way.
“We build every denture in our laboratory so you know exactly what you are getting, and we can easily repair dentures or fix any issue that might arise.
“We also offer Immediate Dentures. This is a good option, so people don’t have to go without teeth when they’ve had an extraction. This process involves taking impressions of your mouth while your teeth are still present. Models of your mouth are then produced. Your prosthetist can then do simulated extractions on the model and place the denture teeth as close as you require to your natural setting and correct many things about tooth position that you may not be happy with at present.
“When your teeth are extracted, your new denture is ready to be inserted by your dentist, allowing you to keep your smile!”
“We are a private clinic with no referral needed. We also accept Veterans Affairs, private health and vouchers from the Victorian Denture Scheme. The Daylesford Clinic will be based in the Central Highlands Rural Health’s Community Health Care Centre at 13 Hospital Street – and open from Wednesday, April 22.
“Sophie Darwen is the face of our Daylesford clinic. Sophie began her career as a dental assistant before deciding to further her studies in Dental Technology. After completing her Dental Technician diploma, she went on to enrol in the Dental Prosthetist course at RMIT University. Sophie’s extensive dental experience has shaped her into a confident and thorough prosthetist, with strong attention to detail and a commitment to high-quality patient care.
“We can’t wait to open our fourth clinic, in Daylesford, and get to know our clients and offer them our innovative dental solutions tailored to their unique needs – along with our compassionate care. We are very excited to fulfil this dream.”
