Alana

Hi I’m Alana,

I moved to Taupō with my small family in early 2025 after graduating with a Bachelor of Oral Health from AUT University. My journey in dentistry began in 2018 as a Dental Assistant, where I discovered my passion for helping people achieve healthy, confident smiles.

As a qualified Oral Health Therapist, I provide preventative and restorative care for children and adolescents up to the age of 18, as well as hygiene treatments and oral health education for patients of all ages. I’m dedicated to creating a calm, supportive environment where patients feel heard, respected, and comfortable throughout their visit. I have a special interest in helping children feel confident and at ease during dental appointments, with the hope that early positive experiences will reduce dental anxiety and foster confidence with future dental care.

Outside the clinic, I'm often spending time with my family, baking treats, exploring new places on road trips, or relaxing with a good TV series.
