OUR STORY

Papamoa orthodontist

Rachel grew up in the King Country and remains a country girl at heart. Since graduating as a dentist, she has worked and lived in Dunedin, Australia, across the globe in England, and then Wellington before moving to the Bay of Plenty in 2010. She was a dentist for 17 years before making the decision to return to Dunedin, for a further three years, to specialise in orthodontics.

Rachel’s husband, Lloyd, is also a very experienced dentist. He will be operating as Tara Rd Dental in Papamoa from the same purpose-built and fully accessible premises. Lloyd is particularly interested in oral surgery, aesthetic dentistry and full mouth rehabilitation. He offers several sedation options.

Rachel and Lloyd have three delightfully energetic boys, Max, Rufus, and Sebastian. They feel privileged to be raising their family in the same gorgeous region they both spent their childhood holidays making memories.
