Dr Teresa Mao

Dentist at National Dental Care - Armidale

Specialities: Dentist Language: English Gender: Female Education: BDS (INDIA)

Hey there! I’m Teresa and I’m so excited to have joined the team at NDC Armidale. Having lived most of my life in India, a chance visit to Australia made me fall in love with the place. After graduating as the Best Outgoing Student from Saveetha University (India) in 2014, I successfully passed the Australian Dental Council Exams and there’s been no looking back ever since.When it comes to dentistry, I enjoy every bit of it. I’m extremely passionate about the aesthetic quotient and I take pride in bringing back a smile to my patients faces. Experiencing what it’s like to be both on and off the dental chair, I understand the importance of gentle dental treatment and being at ease throughout procedures. When I’m not at work you will find me outside trying new restaurants or at home, binge-watching detective shows. Or not in town at all, as I love travelling to new places! ...
