HEALTH & BEAUTY
“Beautiful healthy
teeth for life”
At St Albans Dental Centre one of
the key measures of their success is the
number of patients they treat through to
older age with natural teeth and gums
with the supporting tissue intact.
They strive (in line with their motto)
to keep these tissues healthy and as
beautiful as possible, and where damage
has occurred, from decay, wear, erosion
or accident, they carefully repair it with
tooth-like materials in an attempt to
recreate the original form and function of
these teeth.
St Albans Dental Centre is a general
dental practice looking after all dental
requirements while specialising in ‘Cerec’
ceramic repair, sedation dentistry (for
those who don’t want to know about it)
and wisdom teeth extractions.
The practice believes in and practises
‘preventative’ dentistry, which aims to
help patients prevent disease rather than
fixing the damage once it has occurred.
They also believe in and practise ‘minimal
intervention dentistry’, meaning they
minimise the damage to natural tooth
tissue when repair is undertaken.
They are a team of dedicated dentists
and hygienists, who provide professional,
high-quality dental care to their patients
and the community.
They are very sad to have lost Dr
Freddie Linterman from the team as he
decided to retire at the end of October. .
Dr Linterman joined the St Albans Dental
Centre after the 2010 earthquake rendered
his central city practice unusable. He has
had a long and distinguished career in
dentistry caring for his many dedicated
patients and he will be sorely missed by
one and all. Everyone on the team wishes
Freddie all the best for his retirement.
Dr Kristine Bettle has rejoined the
team after a break for maternity leave and
is currently working two days a week.
Kristine is looking forward to treating
both new and existing patients.
St Albans Dental Centre welcomes a
new hygienist, Petria Waitzer, who is
working alongside Victoria Ryan. Petria
has relocated from Auckland with her
husband, where she worked in both
specialist and general dentistry. She is
passionate about providing oral health
care tailored to individual needs. She is a
very experienced hygienist with a strong
focus on preventative and periodontal
dentistry.
For any concern, questions or to make
an appointment at St Albans Dental
Centre, please call (03) 355 9380 and
one of the friendly receptionists will be
happy to assist with any dental enquiry.
