Dr Nima Arafati — Balwyn Dental Practice

Finding a dentist you trust shouldn’t be this hard

Outdated equipment, rushed appointments, or a dentist who doesn’t speak your language — these shouldn’t be things you have to settle for. You deserve a clinician who has spent decades refining his craft, who invests in the latest technology, and who takes the time to listen before picking up a handpiece.

Two Decades of Expertise

Over 20 years in public and private practice across three countries, with more than 10,000 patients treated.

State-of-the-Art Technology

Balwyn Dental Practice is equipped with the latest dental technology for more accurate diagnoses and comfortable treatments.

Gentle, Patient-First Care

Known for his gentle approach, Dr Nima takes the time to listen, explain, and make sure you feel comfortable at every step.

Dr Nima Arafati

From three countries to your corner of Balwyn

Dr Nima understands that visiting the dentist can feel daunting. He takes the time to listen to your concerns, explain every option in plain language, and make sure you feel confident before any treatment begins.

His journey to dentistry spans continents. After earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery in 2005, Nima honed his skills across clinics in the Philippines, Iran, and Australia — building a depth of experience that few dentists can match. In 2013 he founded Sweet Smile Dental in Doncaster East, growing it into a thriving five-dentist practice that served over 10,000 patients.

In 2024, he opened Balwyn Dental Practice on Whitehorse Road — a purpose-built clinic fitted with the latest technology and designed around one principle: every patient deserves unhurried, high-quality care from a dentist who genuinely cares.
