What Local Patients Say
Real feedback from tooth removal and urgent care visits at our East Brisbane clinic under IGA - pulled directly from Google.
Majid has performed my regular checkups, cleaning and procedures such as fillings, tooth extraction, sealants etc, and is always gentle, thorough and communicates at each step. He is responsive and takes regular pauses during treatment to make sure I am comfortable. After removing my wisdom teeth a few years ago (which was astonishingly straight forward and pain free!) my recovery was textbook with no complications.
Sheyda oversaw my Invisalign treatment, and from our initial consult I knew I was in safe hands. She clearly outlined each step of the Invisalign process and what to expect, and provided expert care throughout each of my review appointments.
The dental assistants are friendly, easy to communicate with, careful during treatment and expertly manage appointments, payments etc. The dental practice itself is in a great location with plenty of parking. It is a lovely space, well-lit and welcoming. I particularly enjoy the happy dog videos on the TV in the waiting room 😊
I am grateful to have found EasyCare Family Dental, and to Majid and Sheyda – thank you.
100% recommend, 10/10.
Dr Serpoosh made himself available to examine me on the day of my call then he and his professional team carried out the procedure the very next day. They have provided on going care and a plan to solve the dental issue. I would highly recommend Easy Care Family Dental to everyone.
As soon as I sat down with Dr. Majid and opened my mouth, he immediately identified the problem. I felt a huge sense of relief and happiness—finally, someone was able to pinpoint the issue, quickly and accurately.. I was genuinely impressed by his skill, knowledge, and sharp diagnostic ability.
Throughout the entire procedure, Dr. Majid was incredibly patient and considerate. He made sure I was comfortable, offering breaks and consistently checking in to see how I was doing. I also noticed that the equipment they used seemed modern and up-to-date, which I believe adds an extra layer of capability to any practitioner.
The nurse, Matina, was equally kind and skilled. Her support during the process made the experience even more comfortable and reassuring.
I’m truly glad to have found a dentist I can trust. From now on, both myself and my family will be regular patients at Dr. Majid’s clinic.
Majid is gentle, patient, considerate, and responsive to your reactions throughout the entire process, offering you little breaks to make things more comfortable, and not laying on the flossing guilt too thick.
I also have never had the impression that he is trying to find ways to upsell or make extra dollars from you unless it's necessary, unlike past dentists. Very honest, trustworthy, and reliable, and I'll be sticking around!
I definitely recommend!
This was my first experience with Dr. Majid. When I arrived, Charlotte, the assistant, welcomed us warmly and we quickly filled out a patient form. The reception process was very fast, and I think I saw the doctor in less than 5 minutes, which really helped reduce my stress.
At first impression, Dr. Majid seemed very precise and professional. He examined me carefully, took an X-ray, and explained the treatment plan in great detail. The anesthetic injection was done so smoothly that I didn’t even notice it—although he told me it might hurt, I was still waiting for the pain when he suddenly said it was done!
Dr. Majid restored my tooth so well that I think it looks even better than it did originally. I had no pain at all in the following days. The price he gave me was also very reasonable—not too high and not too low.
Today I even booked an appointment for my wife. The clinic is very clean and modern. Overall, it was an excellent, pain-free experience. I really liked it and I think we’ve found our family dentist.
Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I feel immensely less anxious about going to the dentist in future, and will 100% be using EasyCare for the foreseeable future!
What truly stood out was the personalised follow-up after my procedure. Practice staff reached out to check on my progress. This level of attentiveness made it clear that they genuinely care about their patients' well-being and satisfaction.
I highly recommend Easycare Family Dental for anyone seeking top-notch dental care with a personal touch. Their commitment to quality service, excellent communication, and thoughtful follow-up truly sets them apart.
The team was incredibly professional and made sure everything was clearly explained, leaving no room for confusion or uncertainty. Their attention to detail and patient comfort was evident throughout the procedure, which was entirely pain-free.
A thoughtful follow-up call the next day to check on how I was doing truly reflected their commitment to patient care. The level of professionalism, kindness, and expertise at EasyCare Family Dental made this experience far better than I had anticipated. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality dental care in a welcoming environment! I was looking for a new dental practice and I found one.
Look no further if you’re in the market for a new dentist.
Dr. Majid was incredibly compassionate and took the time to explain every step of the procedure. He made sure I was comfortable throughout and answered all my questions in detail, which helped ease any concerns I had. The level of care I received was outstanding, and I truly appreciate how much they prioritise patient comfort and understanding.
Highly recommend this practice for anyone looking for a dentist who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about their patients!
Many thanks for fixing my broken tooth
Kind regards
Don Millar
Highly recommend this dental practice and I will definitely return.
Dr. Majid is not only a skilled dentist but also incredibly attentive to patient needs. They took the time to explain each procedure thoroughly and ensured I felt comfortable every step of the way. Their expertise was evident in how efficiently and painlessly they handled my dental issues.
The clinic itself is state-of-the-art, equipped with the latest technology, which further enhanced my confidence in the care I was receiving. The staff were always courteous and helpful, making each visit a pleasant experience.
Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Majid to anyone seeking top-notch dental care in a welcoming environment.
Dr. Majid Serpoosh was so skilled and his knowledge is second to none and he goes the extra mile for his patients.
Highly recommend him to everyone.
Highly recommend this practice.
Dr Majid’s assistants are very friendly and have a caring manner - just what you need when a little nervous. Sometimes, Dr Majid’s wife acts as his assistant, who is also a dentist! So you get two dentists for the price of one! Easy Care Family Dental have recently moved to new premises, with state of the art equipment. Now further for me to travel, but I consider that irrelevant when considering the treatment which I receive. Definitely recommended.

When Tooth Extraction Is Needed - and When It Can Be Avoided
Not all damaged or painful teeth need to be removed. The decision depends on the condition of the tooth, surrounding structures, and long-term prognosis. Our approach focuses on preserving natural teeth where possible and recommending extraction only when necessary.
Common Reasons for Tooth Extraction
Tooth extraction may be recommended when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, fractured or affected by advanced gum disease. In some cases, removal is the safest option to prevent ongoing pain or complications.
When a Tooth Can Be Saved
Many teeth can be treated and preserved depending on their condition. Options such as root canal treatment or dental crowns may restore function and avoid extraction where appropriate.
Planning After Extraction
If a tooth is removed, replacement options can be considered to maintain function and alignment. Treatments such as dental implants or restorative solutions can be discussed based on your situation.

Tooth extraction is often part of a broader treatment plan. These pages can help you understand your symptoms, when urgent care is needed, and what options are available to manage or prevent further problems.

Who This Page Is For
This page is for patients experiencing tooth pain, infection, damage or a broken tooth and looking for tooth extraction in Brisbane.
Tooth Removal, Emergency Symptoms and What Comes Next
Tooth removal may be recommended when a tooth is badly broken, deeply decayed, infected or no longer predictable to save. If you are dealing with swelling, severe pain or a sudden dental problem, our urgent dental care page explains when prompt assessment is the safest next step.
In some cases, a painful tooth may still be saved depending on the extent of the damage or infection. Our root canal treatment page outlines the tooth-saving option when the aim is to remove infection while keeping the natural tooth in place.
If removal is the best long-term choice, planning what happens afterwards is also important. Our dental implants page explains one of the replacement options available to restore function and support longer-term oral health after healing.
