About Dr Gupta
More than two decades in dentistry, still learning.
Dr Rashi Gupta leads Sayers Dental Aesthetics & Implants on Sayers Road and our sister practice, Norlane Dental in Geelong. She has practised for more than 24 years, including at several Melbourne clinics and the Royal Dental Hospital, where she built experience across many areas of modern dentistry.
Her clinical interests are dental implants, full-arch treatment and cosmetic dentistry. She also cares about making dental visits easier for people who feel anxious, and takes time to explain each step.
When a patient asks about replacing teeth, Dr Gupta starts with an examination, 3D imaging and a conversation about what matters to them. She then explains the options, including alternatives to implants, with the likely risks, timeframes and costs, so the decision is an informed one.
