Dr. Auke van der Meulen and Dr. Karen Kromhout both practiced in the United Kingdom as dentists, before returning to South Africa in 1997.

They established the Lydenburg Dental Centre in 1999. They strive to make your experience at the dentist as pleasant as possible.

Healthy, beautiful teeth are an asset and immediately make the face more attractive. They provide us with self-confidence and improve our quality of life. They also have an important effect on our diet, health, and overall well-being. Through a holistic approach, we can prevent oral disease and maintain your oral health and well-being.

Unfortunately through unhealthy eating habits, poor oral hygiene, genetic anomalies, trauma, stress, and aging we can lose the beautiful smile we were born with. Through the use of modern techniques and equipment, safe and scientifically proven materials and honed skills, we try to restore what nature gave you as well as possible. We only use materials that are from reputable international companies and have been scientifically proven to be safe and reliable.
