Dentist for Allansford
A dentist for Allansford, just up the highway.
Allansford sits at the western end of the Great Ocean Road, about ten kilometres east of the Warrnambool town centre. It is a straight, uncomplicated drive in.
We will look after Allansford families and people working around the dairy industry, where shifts do not always line up with ordinary appointment times. Tell us what your roster looks like when you phone and we will work with it.

- Dental implants — placed and restored in-house, planned with 3D imaging
- Root canal treatment — including molars
- Surgical extractions — including more involved cases
- Crowns & bridges — laboratory-made
- Check-ups, cleans & fillings — the regular care that keeps problems small
- Partial dentures
- Emergency appointments — when something breaks or starts to ache
Dr Meg spent close to a decade in regional Western Australia, where the nearest specialist was hours away. That is why treatment which might otherwise mean a trip to Geelong or Melbourne can be handled here. Where a case genuinely belongs with a specialist, she will say so and arrange the referral.
Dr Meg is a general dentist, not a registered specialist.

Common questions
No. Phone us and book an assessment. Dr Meg will examine the site, take 3D imaging and tell you honestly whether an implant is sensible for you.
From opening in December 2026, we will hold two same-day emergency appointments each day. Call 03 5208 9006 first thing in the morning to secure one. Emergency appointments cannot be booked online.
Eligibility for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule is decided by Services Australia and depends on your family’s circumstances. We can look it up for you. Lava Street Dental accepts eligible CDBS patients, and we will confirm any out-of-pocket cost with you before treatment goes ahead.
Other than in unforeseen circumstances, yes. Dr Meg is the only dentist here, which is deliberate.
