Dr Coetzee Philosophy Statement

Dr Coetzee’s philosophy of dentistry:

Each patient is treated as a whole person, not just as a mouth full of teeth or an isolated problem.
It is important to establish overall health, rather than just patching up a problem tooth.
I aim to listen to my patients and try to address their immediate needs but always take their whole mouth and person into consideration.

Dr Coetzees Qualifications

BChD (Pret.) Cum Laude,

PDD (Stell.)

Postgraduate diploma in aesthetic dentistry ( I could legitimately call myself a cosmetic dentist)

My treatment plans are

wholeness,
health and function driven,
everything is done in the most aesthetically possible way.
