DR ALEX MAER

- PRINCIPAL DENTIST

My Story

Hello, I am Dr Alex Maer and I’d like to personally welcome you to my practice, DentalCare Carnegie. My team and I are here to look after you and we hope you have a comfortable and pleasant experience. I have been serving the local community for over 15 years. After graduating at the top of my class with Honours from the University of Melbourne, I moved to Ballarat for a year to work in a local dental clinic and gain a wide range of surgical experience. I then moved back to Melbourne and worked as a Senior Associate at East Bentleigh Dental Group for over 10 years, where I thoroughly enjoyed becoming a part of the local community.

Taking this experience into consideration, I have designed DentalCare Carnegie to be a specialized family-oriented dental practice, with a particular emphasis on patient comfort and care, as the name suggests. It is always a real privilege getting to know my patients over an extended time, treating entire families and making sure their experience at their dental appointments is comfortable and they leave smiling! I have special interests in crown and bridge Work, implant dentistry, Root Canal Treatment, sleep dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, children dentistry as well as other general dentistry.

In my career I have successfully treated over 30,000 patients, many of whom have become friends. I have extensive experience treating nervous patients, children, special needs patients. Whether you need basic dentistry, all the way through to full mouth reconstructions with implants, crowns and bridges, I can look after you with skill and compassion.

I enjoy treating patients of all ages and I am committed to achieving optimum results for all my patients. I pride myself on being gentle, friendly and caring and I will go the extra mile to ensure all my patients are looked after and are happy with their treatment results.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have two little girls, who always put a smile on my face and who never turn down a chance at “going for a ride” in the dentist’s chair! I am an avid reader, enjoy discussions about health and politics and I am always interested in meeting new people and learning new things. I look forward to meeting you and will strive to look after your dental health to the absolute best of my ability and to form a lifelong doctor-patient relationship.

Everyone in DentalCare Carnegie is 5-star! I live in the Northern suburbs but still willing to travel to Carnegie for a dental appointment. The dentists are all very competent but it’s the people at the reception and the dental assistants that are top notch. They are all very warm and accommodating. I had a wisdom teeth surgery with Dr Paul recently and it went really well. We were able to finish in about half an hour, and recovered pretty quick. I also appreciate that the clinic called to check on me the day after and give more after care instructions for a speedy recovery.

Saw Dr. Julie Sheng for toothache on my molar that’s been festering me. The team contacted me on the day of booking to understand how the toothache started and suggested to get previous records from my previous dentist in the cbd, which I like so they have my records/history going forward. Dr. Julie explained the cause of my toothache whilst showing the xray of my teeth, gums and bones. She also provided the details of what are the next steps and asked me if I am happy to proceed with the root canal after she provided the estimated costs. I appreciate the transparency, explanation of details, and confirmation before proceeding with the treatment. Recommending the same clinic to my husband now.
