Meet the team
Here at Glo Dental, we scale teeth (and mountains), work hard and get joy from
putting a smile on your face. Back in 2013, we knew it was time to give dentistry a
bit of a shake up. That’s why we’ve brought heart and soul into everything we do!
As a team, we’re so lucky to get up every morning and do something we care about – which is to create a dental experience that will uplift you from the moment you step into our clinic. With the latest technology, soothing design and dentists who truly care, our number one priority is to leave you with a warm ‘glo’. Oh, just so you know, each dentist is trained in all general dental procedures and is
Invisalign qualified.
