"Like many people, I've never been a big fan of having to see a dentist. However, being with Jess (the dentist) and Annette (her assistant), I was put at ease.

Thank you, too, to the admin staff who were all very professional and understanding."

"I moved to Taupo a few years ago and was in need of a dentist. I randomly chose The Dentist. Originally I never liked to visit them. After a few visits all my concerns were gone. All the staff were friendly and the dentist was gentle and fully explained what she was doing and why. I now enjoy my visit to The Dentist. I have never felt uncomfortable on my way home. My teeth feel great and I'm on a regular maintenance programme. Honest Maurice"

"Amazing service!! I've always being so scared to go to the dentist. At 1st I was scared but the friendly dentist and his lovely assistant made it all ok and I surprisingly was very relaxed. Honestly didn't feel a thing. My fear is needles but that actually went so well that i felt nothing. I have had no pain whatsoever since I left there. I thought once the numbing went away I'd get some sort of pain.. but nothing at all. Holly served me at the front desk.. she was polite and very kind. I highly recommend this dentist!! Especially if you have anxiety and are fearful of dental treatments. Thank you The DentistTaupo for a great and painless caring experience. Amazing!!"
