Natalia Qualifications

Our friendly team is dedicated to providing you with the brilliant combination of excellence in dental health techniques alongside warm, patient-centred service. We love Whangamata and its laid-back and welcoming atmosphere alongside our friendly and lively community.

We believe that every appointment and service, whether it be a small filling or a large root canal, deserves the utmost care and gold standard techniques in dental treatment. That's why we attend regular courses to learn emerging techniques to make your dental experience the best it can be.

Leading technology isn't just for big cities!

Whangamata Dental Care was established in 2008 by passionate husband and wife team, Natalia Pimenova and Andrei Pimenov. After making the move from Auckland and settling in lovely rural Waihi, the pair took over the previous facility, giving Whangamata back their trusted dental clinic, and fell in love with the community. In their spare time, Andrei and Natalia enjoy gargening and growing delicious fruit and vegetables for scrumptious family meals, caring for their animals and boogie boarding after work in the summer.
