Mélina Garneau

Mélina has been with the team since 2010. She is French-Canadian and obtained her Diploma in Dental Hygiene from Collège Boréal in Ontario, Canada. Mélina is truly passionate about her profession and is endlessly involved in continuous education courses and self-studies.

Mélina is an enthusiastic educator with a tremendous array of tips and tricks to help you look after your teeth. She has a remarkable ability to motivate even the most uninterested patients. Her gentle and sensitive touch means your hygiene visits are as comfortable as possible. She is also trained to give local anaesthetic if needed. Of course, if you are brave enough to try, she is very supportive of anyone wanting to try out their French language skills.

In her free time, Mélina enjoys exploring New Zealand’s great outdoors and teaching yoga. She is interested in psychology, nutrition, animals and music.
