Dr Sasha Antunovic

Sasha graduated in 2014 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery, with distinction, from Otago University, after completing a degree in Biomedical Science. She is Dot and Dave’s daughter, so grew up around the dental surgery. Sasha has an interest in all aspects of general dentistry. She is a warm, friendly dentist, who genuinely cares about her patients and works with them for the best possible outcome. She began her dental career in 2014 at Taranaki Base Hospital and working part-time in private practice at Vivian Dental. She moved to full-time private practice and divided her time working in Waitara, and as part of the Vivian Dental team in New Plymouth. In 2018 she was commuting, working part-time for Chartwell Dental in Hamilton, before working full time in Hamilton for Dental Excellence. She completed a postgraduate membership course with the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons in 2019. In 2021 she had her first baby, George and was on maternity leave. She moved with her husband, who is an anaesthetist to Auckland for a year before returning with her family to Taranaki early 2023. Sasha is currently pregnant with her second child. She plans to be on maternity leave starting mid July 2025. She will be back in 2026 (date to be confirmed).
