Manaia Launch

15th-26th April 2024

With the continued partnership and support from Dental Planet, Te Tara o Te Whai has successfully delivered Niho Ora ki Hauraki to our Northern Coromandel communities. 

Operating out of Te Wharekura o Manaia, Niho Ora ki Hauraki has provided funded dental care to more than 60 people these past school holidays. Treatments included 65 tooth extractions, 129 fillings and the administration of 88 gum disease treatments. 

To date, Niho Ora ki Hauraki has delivered oral health treatments to 108 individuals between Thames and Manaia with the initiative to be continued in Paeroa for the next July school holidays.
