Dr Frances Ruddiman graduated from the University of Otago with a BDS in 2011. She spent two years working as a dental and maxillofacial house surgeon in Christchurch and Hawke’s Bay Hospital, which developed her interest in surgery and the management of medically complex patients. Following a year in private practice in Christchurch, Dr Ruddiman returned to Otago to complete her three years of specialist training in the field of periodontology and dental implants. Her DClinDent research focused on biological complications when using non-original parts on dental implants. Dr Ruddiman is a gentle and caring clinician, who believes that with good teamwork, healthy teeth and gums can be maintained for life. Outside of work, Dr Ruddiman enjoys travelling, improving her terrible golf game, and she has recently taken up running and is aiming to complete her first half marathon.
