About Dr. Gidon Fixler

BHSc, MDent, DClinDent (Pros)
Specialist Prosthodontist

I am a specialist prosthodontist passionate about helping people feel confident in their smiles. I was born and raised in Melbourne’s inner south-eastern suburbs, which is why it means so much to me to be able to return and serve the community that shaped me.

My personal journey has deeply influenced my professional path. I was born with a condition that meant I was congenitally missing many teeth. In my early 20s, I underwent a complex dental rehabilitation, which gave me firsthand experience of the challenges and transformative power of restorative dentistry. This experience ignited my passion for prosthodontics and fuels my commitment to helping others restore their smiles with the same level of care and precision that I received.

After spending years gaining experience both regionally and in Melbourne, my wife and I are excited to now live and work locally, offering the highest standard of specialist prosthodontic care to our own community.

I believe that every smile is unique, and I take pride in providing personalised, thoughtful care to each of my patients. Whether it’s restoring function, creating natural-looking aesthetics, or planning complex rehabilitations, my goal is always to deliver outcomes that feel comfortable, look beautiful, and stand the test of time.

When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll likely find me teaching, staying involved with ongoing professional education, traveling or spending time bouldering!
