Welcome to Tooth Works

Tooth Works, operating from Invercargill, is one of the largest practices in the South Island with a team of five dentists, both male and female. We also have a dental hygienist to provide cleaning and preventative care and advice. Duchenne Dental Services are located within the same building, providing full and partial denture services.

Like most people I am nervous of going to the dentist, so it was not a good day for me when I broke a filling and had to make the dreaded appointment. I need not have worried because Dentist Kate, and her lovely assistant were both chatty, calming, and nice, and Kate did an excellent pain free job.

I am absolutely terrified of the dentist, Tooth Works came highly recommended, so decided to change, have no regrets at all, James was amazing with working with my phobia, and putting my mind at ease, by my 5th appointment I was able to do it without medication or a support person a big change from my break down at the counter just walking in to make the appointment the first time. Could not fault them at all. Nor speak anymore highly of them! It’s so good to finally have a pleasant dentist experience!!
