Founded in 1946 by John Thompson on his return from serving during World War 2 in New Guinea, the Jetty Road Dental Clinic at Glenelg began in the premises it still occupies, originally the Thompson family residence. Jetty Road Dental Clinic today has come a long way since 1946. As many dental practices in Glenelg have come and gone, 106 Jetty Road continues to evolve as a modern contemporary practice, still maintaining the principles of looking after patients needs in a personal and individual manner with an emphasis on attention to detail in the dental care provided.
