Lunn Dental Spa

Dr Sam has saved me a world of pain on 2 occassions during the holidays when no one else was available to help. He is a kind and caring dentist that has gone above and beyond what I consider to be 'normal' practice. If I could give more stars, I would.

Sam has been the most incredible, trustworthy, caring and talented dentist I've ever seen. After a terrible run of dentists that have done unnecessary and expensive procedures, it's such a relief to finally find one who isn't seeing me just as a dollar sign. He's worked with me for a long time on a problem tooth, referred me to really amazing specialist and performed literal miracles to ensure I didn't lose my tooth. He's thorough and ensures he knows the whole picture before he does any treatments. He's also very kind by using numbing cream before he injects my gums, which the same can't be said for previous dentists I've had. I would highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for a new dentist! Edited to add that I just went back for a clean and he's done a spectacular job! I'm very happy with the result. (p.s you can't even tell that one of those teeth is a crown!)

Very friendly and thorough explanations are given on potential services that are needed. Will definitely recommend.

Make sure you check the cost carefully in advance. I was planning to do a teeth cleaning but was told that an exam and X-ray are required before the Doctor can do anything else. I wasn't informed about the cost until the doctor finished the procedure and was a bit in shock that it costs $270 (not even a full mouth X-ray). I then checked around and realised that it is quite pricy. I ended up with somewhere else to complete the cleaning and filling at a way better price he quoted and higher standard of equipment and service.

Sam is a genius. He's an artist (quite literally). I've been to maybe half a dozen different dentists in NZ over the past 20 years, and Sam's work just makes the others look criminal. He knows exactly what he's doing. He sees and solves problems perfectly, and can patiently and professionally explain all the technical details alongside. Prices are right, too. I recommend this dentist if you intend to keep your teeth.
