06 844 8024

ABOUT:  TE RANGI DEVINE
Head of Crown, Bridge & Digital Dentistry
DDT-RMIT University Melbourne 

Te Rangi started working for his parents in 2005 to see whether Dental Technology was the right career for him.  It didn't take him long to realise his passion for this industry.  In 2008 he completed a Diploma of Dental Technology 

at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia.  After

qualifying, Te Rangi felt it was important to see how other laboratories operated and to gain as much experience as possible. He had the pleasure of working at several great laboratories in New Zealand

​

In 2015 he moved to London, UK to broaden his  experiences. In his 4 years in the UK he was fortunate enough to work in the oldest laboratory in London and with two Key Opinion Leaders for Ivoclar Vivadent, a world-leading dental company. He worked with and was trained by some of the best technicians from around the world and this has set the bar to which he strives to surpass. 

​

Now returning to the family business and establishing it as a new entity, Devine Smile Design, he brings a new energy that incorporates modern dental technology and the great traditional techniques he has learnt from some of the world's best.
