Dr John Bacalakis
River City Dental’s Owner & Principal Dentist, Dr John Bacalakis, is highly skilled in all areas of dentistry. He prides himself on his high level of patient care and compassion and with a young family, he understands the need to make dental visits an enjoyable and relaxed experience for children from a young age. Dr John grew up in Cairns and graduated with Honours in a Bachelor of Dental Science from the University of Queensland. After graduating, Dr John worked in private practice in Brisbane for 16 years before embarking on the journey to open his own practice.
Post graduate education has been important to Dr John and he has completed extensive education at the Kois Center, in Seattle USA, successfully graduating in 2016. He regularly attends the Kois Annual Symposium to stay up-to-date with the latest developments. He has undertaken extensive training in implant dentistry and has been recognised as a Diplomate of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and a Surgical Implant Fellow of the Misch International Implant Institute since 2011.
When Dr John isn’t caring for his patients, he loves hanging out with his wife Cindy, and their three children. He spends his weekends on the football or cricket fields, coaching or scoring his sons’ games. Dr John and his family are very community-minded and provide countless hours of service to their local football Club and the Greek Orthodox community in Brisbane.
