The team at Alpers Dental sees Remuera families come through our doors every week, and honestly, they're some of our favorite patients.
Most drive over from places like Remuera Primary or after dropping kids at Kings School because they've heard Alpers does things differently here in Epsom.
What do they mean by differently?
Well, our team actually listens to what families need instead of just fixing problems as they pop up. Take Sarah, for example - her kids started with Alpers at primary school age, and now they're adults with gorgeous smiles. That's the kind of relationship we build.
We're only about 5 minutes Remuera, and parents love that we have everything under one roof - no running around Auckland for different specialists. Whether it's your teenager needing braces, your little one's first checkup, or you wanting teeth whitening for that work presentation, we've got you sorted.
Plus, we have parking, which every Auckland parent appreciates.
Living in Remuera means you appreciate quality, convenience, and personalised service. You probably shop at Remuera Village, know every shortcut through the winding streets, and understand that good healthcare is worth traveling for when you find the right fit.
At Alpers Dental, just a quick drive from your Remuera home, we've built our reputation on understanding what local families actually need from their dental care. It's not just about fixing problems as they arise. It's about creating a relationship where we're thinking about your family's smiles twenty years from now.
Sarah King, one of our long-term patients, puts it perfectly: "My kids are all grown up now but they started with Alpers when they were still at primary school and their teeth are beautiful now." That's exactly the kind of journey we want for your Remuera family.
What really sets us apart is our approach to treatment. While other practices might suggest removing teeth to create space, we use techniques like palate expansion and clear aligners that preserve your child's natural teeth.
This creates better long-term results and healthier airways, something every parent should know about.
When you're managing a household in Remuera, the last thing you need is running between different specialists across Auckland. We offer comprehensive dental services under one roof, making it easier to coordinate care for your entire family.
Our dental hygienist services keep your family's teeth healthy between visits. Regular dental cleanings catch small issues before they become expensive problems. We teach children proper brushing techniques and help parents understand what to watch for at home.
When problems do occur, our restorative dentistry options include tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with natural teeth. For more significant damage, we provide same-day crowns that minimize time away from work or school.
Teenagers in Remuera deserve orthodontic treatment that doesn't disrupt their busy social and academic schedules. Our orthodontic services include both traditional metal braces and discrete clear aligners for those who prefer a less visible option.
We also specialise in early orthodontics, helping guide proper jaw development in younger children. This often prevents the need for more extensive treatment later, saving time and money while creating better outcomes.
Whether you're preparing for a big presentation or just want to feel more confident in your daily interactions, our cosmetic dentistry services can transform your smile. Professional teeth whitening removes years of coffee and wine stains, giving you noticeable results in just one visit.
For more comprehensive smile makeovers, we offer veneers and other aesthetic treatments that address multiple concerns at once.
Remuera families shouldn't have to travel across Auckland for specialized dental care. We provide advanced treatments right here in nearby Epsom.
If you're dealing with jaw pain, headaches, or teeth grinding, our TMJ therapy options can provide significant relief. We use targeted treatments including therapeutic botox injections that address both the discomfort and underlying muscle tension.
When tooth damage is extensive, we offer dental implants and root canal treatment using the latest techniques. Our goal is always to save natural teeth whenever possible, but when replacement is necessary, we provide solutions that look and feel completely natural.
We also provide emergency dentistry services because dental problems don't follow convenient schedules. When your child chips a tooth at Saturday morning sports or you develop severe tooth pain on a Sunday evening, we're here to help.
Getting children excited about dental visits isn't easy, but somehow we've figured out how to create an environment where kids actually look forward to coming in. One grandmother shared with us about her granddaughter: "My 5 and a half year old granddaughter went for her yearly check up and was so excited to go, jumping out of the car with such excitement remembering her last encounter there."
Our paediatric dentistry approach recognizes that children aren't just small adults. They need different techniques, different explanations, and definitely different energy levels from their dental team.
Adam Eslick brought his 5-year-old for an emergency appointment and told us: "Recently attended with my 5 year old for an emergency appointment and the entire experience was overwhelmingly positive. Can't recommend highly enough. The practice is beautiful and inviting and perfectly set up to cater for children and young adults."
For children who experience dental anxiety, we offer sedation options that help them feel calm and comfortable throughout their visit. We also catch problems early when they're easier and less expensive to fix.
Real families sharing real experiences tell our story better than we ever could. Here's what some of our patients have shared with us:
Paula, whose family has been with us for over a decade, says: "Our family has had three of our children having orthodontic treatment with Alpers over a period of more than ten years." That kind of long-term trust doesn't happen by accident.
One parent dealing with dental anxiety told us: "Such a great experience with a daughter with a dentist phobia, she was relaxed and calm and the service is outstanding." We hear variations of this story regularly from families who thought dental visits would always be stressful.
Minnie shared her experience: "The initial experience was warm and welcoming, putting my child at ease. The consultation displayed exceptional professionalism and offered valuable advice. I highly recommend this place."
Geography matters when you're juggling family schedules in Remuera. Our Epsom location at Level 3, 24 Manukau Road is perfectly positioned for Remuera families - just a 6-minute drive from Remuera Primary School, 6 minutes from Remuera Intermediate, and only 5 minutes from Kings School.
Whether you're coming from Orakei Road, driving up from the village, or timing appointments around school pickup, we're incredibly convenient.
We offer complimentary parking, which any Auckland parent knows is worth its weight in gold. No circling blocks looking for a park when you're already running late for an appointment.
Our online scheduling system makes booking appointments straightforward, and our reminder system ensures you won't forget about appointments in the midst of busy family life.
Choosing the right dentist for your Remuera family is one of those decisions that affects your household for years to come. You want practitioners who understand that dental health connects to overall wellbeing, who treat children with patience and skill, and who explain treatment options clearly.
Your family's journey to better oral health starts with a consultation. During this visit, we'll assess everyone's current dental health, discuss any concerns you have, and create personalized treatment plans that fit your family's needs and schedule.
For orthodontic questions, we offer a free virtual consultation that lets you explore options from the comfort of your Remuera home. This initial consultation helps determine whether orthodontic treatment would benefit your child and what options might work best.
Every Remuera family's dental needs are different. The best way to understand how we can help your family is to schedule a consultation where we can discuss your specific concerns and goals.
Whether you're looking for a new family dentist, considering orthodontic treatment for your teenager, or dealing with TMJ pain that's affecting your daily life, we're here to provide the personalized care your family deserves.
