At our practice, our aim is to get to know all our patients individually, because you deserve a dentist that cares and tailors every aspect of your visit around what matters to you the most. We are a small and welcoming dental clinic that provides all aspects of dentistry, from honest and professional advice to full mouth reconstruction, including crowns, bridges, dentures, root canal treatments, orthodontics, wisdom tooth removal (extractions) and dental implants.

Lynette grew up in Wellington, New Zealand and studied dentistry in Dunedin at the University of Otago. She graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery with honours. She was now ready for the world and adventure! She decided it was time to go abroad and leave her home country, New Zealand, for a one year position as a Dental Officer at Westmead Centre of Oral Health, Sydney.
Many patients do not go to the dentist because of their concerns about the cost associated with treatment. At Neutral Bay Family Dental we care about our patients and understand this, so we do a number of things to help reduce your concerns regarding cost of care. We ensure that all costs are discussed beforehand so you do not have any nasty surprises or hidden costs.
Tooth decay can be sneaky - it doesn't tend to show physical signs of its presence or pain early on. When your dentists perform an examination, they are limited to what they can see in your mouth - they can only see the part of the tooth that sits above the gum. Even then, dentists cannot see clearly between teeth where they touch.
Success of implants depends on the health of the person receiving the treatment. There are medications which can affect the health of the tissues and bone inside the mouth. All of these issues are discussed as part of a routine examination. After careful assessment and planning. Implants can be surgically placed into the bone of your Jaw or skull providing there is enough healthy bone and surrounding tissue.
In days gone by injured or diseased teeth had to be removed. These days we try to save the tooth with endodontic treatment, otherwise known as Root Canal Therapy. This procedure can be performed by a dentist or a specialist dentist called an Endodontist. For Root Canal Therapy more than one appointment is usually required.

Excellent dentist, Dr. Lynette is extremely professional, all her team as well, they care about the health and well-being of the patients. Dr. Lynette is an amazing dentist, practices and procedures are very clean and the treatments are just right, and I'd say the last machine for cleaning teeth is fabulous, highly recommended 😊

Great experience after much nervousness about visiting the dentist! I have never been so welcomed and been in such great caring hands as much I did here. Everyone from making the appointment to entering the surgery is so friendly and helpful. Dr Lynette was amazing with sorting out a plan that suited my budget and time available. She walked me through the process and was extremely transparent about the expectations, goals and what to expect after. I felt very comfortable knowing that everyone here are there to look after the health of your smile, not to just do unnecessary procedures. Highly recommended

I usually feel uneasy going to the dentist, however, Lynette's friendly nature and extensive expertise made me feel super comfortable when I had my wisdom teeth removed. I also had my teeth cleaned and some fillings put in, her gentle and precise technique ensured I was not in any discomfort.
Lynette is extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all the questions and concerns I had. They were even able to take photos of my teeth (the molars at the back) and show me what work needed to be done, this was awesome as I could actually see the difference in what she had done to fix my teeth
