Our Dental Team | Herald Avenue Dental Centre Willetton

Our dental team consists of 5 dentists and 4 dental nurses. Our dentists are Dr Vincent Lim, Dr Martin Lu, Dr Su Anne Au, Dr Agnes Tan and Dr Sambavi Kugananthan.

All of our dentists work and rotate through both our Willetton and Northam practices. This exposes them to a wider range of cases and helps further their knowledge in dentistry.

Our dentists also undertake continuing professional development courses to ensure that they keep up to date with the latest techniques and technology in dentistry.

Our practice manager Elle Gough has been working alongside Vincent since April 2009. Starting as a dental nurse, Elle has acquired a lot of experience and knowledge in all areas of dentistry and can provide help and advice to patients with any questions or concerns.
