Bringing together leading orthodontic and maxillofacial skills
Our state-of-the-art facilities
We have worked hard to create an environment that puts our patients at ease and helps them feel confident about their care. We treat patients in carefully planned orthodontics suites, with space for family support, personal care and more.
Imaging, dental, medical and sterilisation equipment are chosen to support fine work, but also to be flexible. Every orthodontics procedure imaginable, and most surgical procedures, can be carried out as a day case.
In the event a hospital stay is required, we have established relationships with the Wellington Hospital and Hospital of St John & Elizabeth. Admission is still unusual for our patients, even for complex needs.
With our approach, you can reassure your patient that their treatment with us will be carefully planned and coordinated, causing the least possible disruption to their schedule.
How we support your patient
Underlying our ethos is a belief that patients deserve to be seen as unique. Every set of braces and every element of care is individual, as is the nature of the person receiving them. How they feel about treatment and the changes they see should be part of their care. This creates a welcoming atmosphere for our patients, along with an important outcome. Orthodontics is a very personal science, and fine results only come from understanding the specific needs of each patient.
