About Us

“I believe in the long term

and in seeing my patients over many

years,  and ensuring that the

treatment I recommend,  lasts.” … Adrian Tan

“If I had to describe my sort of dentistry,  it would be conservative,  precise and mindful. So much so that when TV3′s Target sent their hidden camera trial here last year in 2011,  we scored full marks! One of the very few companies ever to do so.”

That’s me in that picture up there with my beautiful new wife! We got married in February 2012 so I’m still a wee bit chuffed and had to post it on the website!

I graduated from the University of Otago in 1994, wow, that sounds like a long time ago. I spent 8 years working in A&E dentistry a foundation that allowed me to view and treat a wider range of dental problems, both restorative and surgical. Much of my work is now in general dentistry but I do have a special focus on surgery, including wisdom teeth operations and implant placement.

In the last six years, I’ve added general practice orthodontics to the list of treatments I provide, including InViSALIGN.I’ve been very fortunate in the people I’ve had working for me, all sharing the mindset that careful work, lasts the distance; and that my patients remain my patients over the years.

Dentistry today is expensive and time consuming, and as a patient you are deluged by the number of options available to you out there. I see it as my job to make sure that you are fully informed of the options available to you, and that the care that you receive, is the care that suits your individual situation.
