They may look sharp, but these tools are here to help, not hurt. đ¤
Every mirror, pick, and probe is designed with precision. Not to cause discomfort, but to detect early signs of wear, decay, or inflammation before they become something bigger.
Preventative dentistry is about staying ahead, and the tools we use are essential for protecting the long-term health and integrity of your smile.
These two tools are some of the most basic, but essential instruments in routine dental exams. đŚˇđ§°

A little brushing now, a lifetime of confidence later. đŚˇ
Good habits start young - and they last. Teaching kids to care for their smile isn't just about clean teeth today, it's about setting them up for long-term health, confidence, and self-care.
Because the best smiles are the ones that last a lifetime. đ

Meet our new General Dentist, Michael Fu.
Kia ora! Iâm originally from Hamilton and hold a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Dental Surgery from the University of Otago. I trained and worked at Christchurch Hospital, where I developed a strong interest in urgent care, extractions, and helping people find relief from dental pain.
I am a calm, relaxed, and down-to-earth person who truly listens to people. I enjoy building trust with my patients and working together. I understand the Dentist can be a scary and confusing place where patients often donât know whatâs going on. Thatâs why I focus on creating a simple, relaxed and supportive environment where my patients feel safe, heard, and cared for. I always make sure my patients understand what's happening with their teeth every step of the way.
My favourite part of being a Dentist is helping people slowly build their confidence, and overcome their fears and anxieties about the Dentist, making sure they leave feeling happy and confident about their teeth.
Outside of Dentistry, I love playing hockey, running, yoga, dancing and music, and enjoying good food with friends and family!

Powdered toothpaste: a modern alternative? âď¸đ¤
Powdered toothpaste has been gaining attention as an alternative to the traditional tube. Packaged in sleek jars and designed for a more minimal lifestyle, it appeals to those looking for eco-conscious or travel-friendly options.
Some formulas include fluoride to protect against cavities, while others focus on natural ingredients like clay or baking soda.
As with any oral care product, itâs worth checking the formulation and speaking with your dentist to ensure it supports your long-term oral health.
Would you consider making the switch?

Strong teeth donât just happen. Theyâre the result of small, intentional habits. đŚˇâ¨
Think of your teeth like fine porcelain: beautiful, durable, but worth protecting. Here are a few ways to preserve their strength and integrity:
âď¸ Invest in your enamel â Enamel is irreplaceable. Choose a quality fluoride toothpaste and avoid harsh abrasives that can wear it down.
âď¸ Be mindful of daily habits â Frequent snacking, sipping wine, or even over-whitening can weaken teeth over time. Moderation is key.
âď¸ Prioritise professional care â Regular check-ins arenât just routine; theyâre preventative maintenance for your smileâs longevity.

Considering facial aesthetics but not sure where to start?
We offer DysportÂŽ, a treatment that works by relaxing the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles giving your skin a smoother, refreshed look â¨
Like BotoxÂŽ, DysportÂŽ is made from botulinum toxin type A and works in the same way, but the dose isnât directly comparable to other products you may have tried before. Thatâs why itâs important to see a trained professional who can tailor the treatment to you.
Our team is here to talk you through your options, get in touch if you'd like to know more: 03 351 1188

Ignoring a small cavity is like ignoring a tiny crack in your windscreen. It might not seem urgent, but it wonât stay small.
Left untreated, that tiny cavity can turn into a bigger issue causing pain, infection, or even tooth loss. The good news? Early treatment is simple, quick, and far more affordable than leaving it for later.
If you're booked in for surgery or a complex treatment, chances are youâll be hearing from Lais. From scheduling and planning to answering your questions and helping you feel prepared, Lais is here to help everything run smoothly.
