Jared Kyle
Dentist
I’m a family man at heart, with an amazing wife and three fun kids who keep life full of laughter and energy. When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll usually find me spending time with them—learning to play disc golf with my boys or watching the kids progress through their karate training. Palmerston North has been home for many years, and I love being part of this community.
Professionally, I’ve spent more than 20 years caring for families here in Palmerston North. I enjoy all aspects of general dentistry, with a special interest in cosmetic work and helping people feel confident in their smile. For the past 10 years, sedation dentistry has also been an important part of my practice, allowing me to provide gentle, reassuring care for nervous or anxious patients.
I’ve been placing implants for over five years and I have a real passion for helping people rebuild worn or damaged teeth and restore both comfort and aesthetics. I’m always curious and always learning—new techniques, new technology, and new ways to serve my patients well. My next area of focus is orthodontics, and I’m excited to bring those skills into the practice in the near future.
Silvia Salinas
Oral Health Therapist
Hola! I’m Silvia Salinas, an Oral Health Therapist with a Bachelor of Oral Health. Originally from South America and raised in New Zealand, I’ve always valued the blend of cultures that shaped who I am and how I care for others. I chose this profession because I wanted a hands-on role where I could make a real difference in people’s health and confidence. Helping patients understand their oral health and seeing their progress is what inspires me every day.
I’m especially interested in dental hygiene, and I love supporting patients in building healthy habits that last.
Outside the clinic, you’ll likely find me with friends and family, at the F45 studio, or enjoying a cosy café moment.
Tia Fatu
Oral Health Therapist
I graduated in 2012 from Otago University and am currently working both in the Private and Public dental sectors.
As an Oral Health Therapist, my focus is on providing high quality care to my patients. I offer preventative dental care, periodontal treatment, cosmetic dentistry, and work to empower and educate people by arming them with the right tools to better care for their oral health.
I am committed to supporting and raising awareness around oral health conditions and in treating the person holistically, not just the symptoms.
