A damaged tooth may need removal if it's beyond repair. We also understand patients sometimes choose to remove a tooth due to financial limitations. We'll always work hard to help you find the solution that fits every aspect of your situation. Our team uses the best methods and equipment to provide a quick and painless visit. Sedation options also offer a range of anxiety-reduction methods that you may wish to consider as well.

Minor surgical procedures are sometimes necessary to treat dental issues. Defects in the bone or supporting gum tissue may require repair with simple, yet precise surgical techniques.

On occasion, your doctor recommends referral to a trusted specialist. Any time he feels you'll be served best by a colleague trained in a particular treatment, he won't hesitate to use the best resources for your care.

Our research is part of a worldwide effort to develop new applications for printable plastic electronics, such as solar cells and biosensors. These plastic electronic devices could potentially be made for a fraction of the cost of conventional alternatives.

Our research is interdisciplinary and draws on a range of other tools to characterise the structural, optical, and electronic properties of materials and functional devices.

Our work is linked with the other New Zealand groups through the MacDiarmid Institute for Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology. We also participate in a number of international collaborations including groups in Australia, Korea, Singapore, USA, France and the UK.

We have developed ultrafast laser spectroscopy methods to investigate the mechanism of photocurrent generation in plastic solar cells. These experiments with laser light can be likened to strobe photography but have a billion-fold better time resolution, as the laser pulses can be as short as 30 femtoseconds (1 femtosecond = 10-15 second). This enhanced resolution enables us to observe the exceptionally fast electronic changes in a material and construct a picture of the electronic dynamics triggered by the absorption of a photon.

Despite the best intentions, teeth sometimes need to be removed. Regardless of the situation, this minor surgical procedure can be brought together in a way that considers your short and long-term concerns. From anxiety control to planning for tooth replacement, we'll factor in every aspect of your case.

Biopsies of suspicious tissue, reshaping of gum defects, or removal of obtrusive bone present scenarios that may also involve surgical correction.

While many patients are concerned about root canals, modern dentistry often makes this procedure quick and simple. Infected teeth in danger of extraction can be disinfected and filled with a sealer, offering a safe, effective solution for a problematic situation.

These techniques include steady state optical spectroscopy, spectrally-resolved photocurrent measurement, and atomic force and electron microscopy. We fabricate samples in the cleanroom at Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington.

This research group, led by Justin Hodgkiss, studies the effect of very short laser pulses on new photo-active materials.

Minor surgical procedures involving the teeth, gums, and jaw may be needed to preserve or enhance long-term health. While our philosophy rests on maintaining teeth, each situation deserves consideration. So when the discussion we have together leads to a surgical correction, We will take every step necessary to ensure your comfort and safety.

We study the effect of very short laser pulses on new photo-active materials, and, by observing the resulting electronic dynamics, gather information about the electronic functionality of the material.

A key to the development of these materials is an understanding of their electronic dynamics on a wide range of timescales—something that has not been possible until recently. Our leading-edge facilities enable us to probe the electronic dynamics of materials from femtoseconds to milliseconds, and guides the design of more effective materials for low-cost plastic electronics.
