About Us 
Affordable emergency dental care you can count on.
Meet Dr Stephen Mace.
Dr Stephen Mace founded Dental SOS after more than two decades working in general dentistry in Melbourne and the UK – and after growing increasingly frustrated with the state of the dental care system. He’d seen too many emergency patients treated as an inconvenience or – worse – as an opportunity to upsell expensive treatment plans.
So he created a different kind of dental clinic. Dental SOS.
Dental SOS is a dental clinic dedicated entirely to emergency care – no checkups, no cleans, no upsells. Just urgent dental help when you need it most.
Dr Mace brings loads of expertise to his emergency patients, with a Masters in Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry, extensive work in the fields of implants and oral surgery, and over 20 years of experience in emergency dental care. His goal is to make sure that his patients walk out feeling better, with their emergency handled, and without outrageous expenses or treatments they didn’t need.
