She is registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand (MCNZ), is a fellow of the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners (FRNZCGP) and is an active member of the New Zealand Society for Anaesthesia and Sedation Dentistry (NZSSD). Sally’s passion is putting people at ease and supporting them to access dental care within the familiarity of their own dental practice. Utilising advanced techniques and technology, Sally provides individually tailored sedation plans, enhancing your treatment experience.  The old days of being given a single pill and waiting are over. IV sedation can make otherwise daunting treatments more pleasant.  It is a great enabler for procedures that are lengthy, invasive and for individuals with strong gag reflexes or anxiety. Due to the properties of the medication, you will feel relaxed, have minimal recall, and time will pass quickly. You can rest assured, if you require sedation, then Sally will be available at set-aside times to ensure that you are well looked after while we attend to your dental needs.
