About Whitford Dental

A dental group in Unit 4 at 1 Whitford Wharf Road in Whitford, Manukau. The team includes dentists, hygienists, chair-side assistants and an oral health therapist, and the website says many of its staff have been there for a long time.

Its general dentistry covers examinations, x-rays and panoramic x-rays, fillings, root canals, minor oral surgery, crowns and bridges, veneers and cosmetic work. The practice also offers Cerec restorations, which are milled on site from a solid block of tooth-coloured ceramic. The website says they can be completed in a single visit, with one local anaesthetic and no temporary crowns. Hygiene visits include scale and polish, fluoride, fissure sealants, periodontal treatment and smoking cessation support. Take-home whitening kits are also available.

Teenagers from Year 9 up to their 18th birthday can have a free basic oral health service, with an NHI number. To book, the website asks families to phone the practice. The website describes the practice as relaxed, fun and caring, at an affordable price.
