Introducing Clearly Dental Biloela

We wanted to let you know that we’re renaming our practice David Cox Dental – Biloela to Clearly Dental Biloela. This is more than just a new name for us, it’s a commitment to our patients. We think dentistry should be clear, simple and straight-up. You’ll get the same great team at the same location, but with more clarity on pricing, appointments and advice.
