Dr Lavanya Lingam
General Dentist

Dr Lavanya Lingam completed her Doctor of Dental Surgery at Melbourne University. Since graduating has practiced dentistry for 10 years in private practice across Sydney, Melbourne and Hamilton.

Dr. Lavanya appreciates that patients are often nervous attending the dentist and is known for her genuine care, gentle manner and high quality work.

Dr. Lavanya thrives in both the artistic and technical aspects of dentistry from smile transforming restorations, to rebuilding bites and pain diagnoses. She believes in empowering her patients with education and custom treatment for not only their immediate dental needs, but to address causal factors for better overall health and wellness.

She believes that the mouth is the gateway to better health. Better chewing and straighter teeth can impact our digestive gut health, the way we breathe and sleep, heart function and even our cognitive ability over time.

Her happiest days at work are when she has inspired her patients to truly love their smiles and themselves. On weekends Lavanya finds balance and exercise in dance (and running after her toddler)!
