Dr. Jigisha Shah is a principal dentist at Signature Dental in South Perth. She completed a Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 2007 and sees patients for general dental care, treatment planning and cosmetic dentistry discussions where clinically appropriate.
Her appointments are focused on listening to the reason for the visit, checking the teeth and gums, explaining findings and discussing suitable next steps before care is planned.
Dr. Shah has a professional interest in cosmetic dentistry and ongoing dental education. Suitability, risks, limits, fees and timing are discussed with patients before treatment begins.
Care focus
The first appointment is a chance to understand what matters to you before treatment is planned.
If you are not sure whether your concern is general or cosmetic, that is okay. Start with what you would like checked, and Dr. Shah can explain what the assessment shows before you decide on the next step.
You can book for routine care or a specific concern. These are some of the areas that may come up during an appointment; what is appropriate still depends on the assessment.
01
For check-ups, tooth concerns, gum questions, older dental work or a starting point when you are unsure what to book.
02
For questions about colour, shape, spacing or smile changes, with suitability, limitations, timing and fees discussed first.
03
For patients who want findings explained clearly before deciding whether to plan care now, stage it, or keep something under review.
