Dr Julia Trajcevska

My name is Julia and I graduated from the University of Sydney with degrees in Advanced Science with honours and the Doctor of Dental Medicine program. Since the completion of my degree in 2018, I have worked in the private sector with patients from a wide variety of backgrounds. I understand that dental visits can be associated with anxiety and will take the time to create a positive experience to help people feel at ease.

I enjoy all aspects of dentistry and am particularly passionate about preventative dentistry and promoting good oral health in all ages. My goal as a clinician is to provide the best evidence-based care in a relaxing environment and to educate regarding dental disease to reduce the need for future treatment.

I’m fluent in both English and Japanese and am always up for a good chat. During my free time, I enjoy exploring what the mid north coast has to offer whether it’s checking out the local beaches, the hiking trails or the food so let me know if you have any suggestions!

Dr Benhur Lingamneni

I have been in private and public practices in Australia since 2008.  I am surrounded by an energetic and capable staff that offer the latest advancements in dentistry with a confident and caring attitude. 

I am capable in performing wide range of dental services, yet I am best known for surgical extractions, specially impacted wisdom teeth, and treatment for anxious patients. I am very passionate about serving local community. I have my own way with children and adult patients who are apprehensive or phobic to dental treatment. I am also proud of having an additional training in orthodontic treatment, which added to my knowledge in evaluating patients for better growth, dental and behavioural problems.

My special interests include helping anxious patients overcome their dental fear, cosmetic dentistry, emergency care, wisdom teeth extraction and children dentistry. 

I am a member of the ADA, and attend various Dental courses to keep myself up to date with the current information to better help my patients.

Born and raised in India, moved to Australia in 2005 and has considered this country as my new home. I have moved to the Hasting Macleay area in 2010 and very happy with this place, which made me settle here. When not working, I love gardening, playing cricket and community services. My wife is a doctor and works for the community in Hasting Macleay area, I am blessed with a boy and a girl.

Dr Yohann Sooltangos

I graduated from Griffith University on the Gold Coast in 2017 with a Graduate Diploma in Dental Sciences. After working for 6 months in Queensland health as part of my final year placement while at university, I relocated to Port Macquarie and joined the enthusiastic team at The Mid North Coast Dental Centres.

The two important aspects of my job that I enjoy the most is firstly to always make my patient feel relaxed and as comfortable as possible, as I understand that seeing a dentist can sometimes be a bit daunting. Secondly the forever evolving and modernising part of dentistry, which is why I am always doing my best to stay up to date with new techniques that are faster, more efficient and more gentle to provide the best treatment for my patients.

I do enjoy all the different fields of dentistry, including preventative and cosmetic work but have a particular interest in prosthodontic work (dentures, crowns, bridges, veneers).

Outside of work my main areas of interest are my family, swimming or walking along the beautiful beaches of the Port Macquarie area, soccer and food.

Dr Edith Allasi Canales

I completed my dentistry degree in 2010. Since, I have worked in both metropolitan and rural practices. Whilst working in rural communities, I developed a particular interest in preventative dentistry. I believe that educating patients about good oral health is of paramount importance to maintain a long lasting smile and an overall wellbeing.

One of my main missions is to provide the best possible dental care in a comfortable and relaxed environment. I enjoy all facets of dentistry especially Cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening, fillings, veneers and crowns) and Orthodontics (teeth straightening) which I’m currently training for.

I’m a member of the ADA and regularly attend various courses to provide the best care for my patients.

I speak English, Spanish and Portuguese. And when not at work, I’m exploring the beautiful beaches of the Mid North Coast.

Dr Dalia Hanna

My name is Dalia Hanna, I hold a Bachelor Degree of Dental Science in 2000. During these twenty years, I have worked in both public and private practices. I enjoy all aspects of dentistry, including cosmetic dentistry, surgery and prosthodontics. I am also very passionate about kids’ dentistry, as I am providing a full range of dental treatments for your young ones. I believe that perfect oral hygiene and charming smile can boost your self -esteem and confidence, as healthy and good-looking teeth influence how we look, speak, eat, socialize, and enjoy life.

In my own time, I enjoy keeping fit and spending time with my family.
