Very professional service by Dr.Matthew Cho. I had extraction and implants done and everything went very smoothly. Follow ups were very good and lot of attention to detail. Would highly recommend.

I've been going to Matthew for 7 years now, travelling far and near. I use to dread calling the dentist until I meet Matthew, he's very gentle and makes every experience very pleasant and comfortable. I always recommend Matthew to my family and friends

Our Range of Services
FillingsDurable, natural-looking fillings designed to restore damaged teeth. Our fillings are carefully matched to your natural tooth colour for a discreet, strong result. With proper care, fillings can last many years, helping you eat, speak, and smile comfortably while preventing further damage.
CrownsCrowns are a reliable solution for teeth that are cracked, worn, or have large fillings. Each crown is designed for comfort and carefully matched to your natural tooth shape and colour. By restoring both the look and function of your tooth, crowns help maintain a healthy bite and support your long-term oral health.
Root Canal TreatmentsA Root canal removes infection from inside the tooth while preserving as much of the natural structure as possible. We perform the procedure gently and explain each step. Preserving your natural tooth maintains your bite, reduces future dental work, and keeps your smile intact.
ExtractionsThis includes orthodontic extractions when part of a wider treatment plan. We focus on making the procedure as smooth and comfortable as possible, explaining what to expect before, during, and after. With careful techniques and clear guidance, we help you recover confidently while protecting your overall oral health.
Wisdom Teeth ExtractionsWisdom teeth don’t always require extraction, but when they do, careful planning and gentle techniques reduce the risk of complications. We provide thoughtful assessment and explain every step of the procedure, helping you recover comfortably while maintaining long-term oral health and bite function.
Teeth WhiteningWe offer in-clinic treatments and custom take-home trays in Lower Hutt, tailored to your individual needs. Whitening enhances your teeth safely while protecting enamel and gum health. Our team provides guidance on maintaining results, helping you achieve a natural, long-lasting brightness and a confident smile you’ll love.
