Broadway Dental Centre

Dr Allan Young graduated in 1981 from Otago. In 1985, he founded Broadway Dental Centre/Allan Young & Associates in Palmerston North. Dr Young places strong emphasis on quality customer service, the continuous education of staff and the utilisation of state-of-the-art technology and equipment to ensure Broadway Dental Centre is at the forefront of the dental arena. He is particularly interested in Cosmetic Dentistry, General Dentistry and Implant Dentistry. Dr Young is a member of NZ Dental Association; NZ Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry; and NZ Cerec Users Group. Dr Young is married with 3 beautiful children and has interests in golf, cycling and skiing.

After graduating with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery from the University of Otago, Dr Grace Lee moved up North to join the team at Broadway Dental Centre. Dr Lee is passionate about all areas of General Dentistry. During her undergraduate years, Dr Lee had the opportunity to undertake research projects and present her research nationally and internationally. As a result, Dr Lee has a keen interest in dental research and actively keeps herself up-to-date with the latest clinically relevant research and new developments. Having grown up in Malaysia and the United States prior to moving to New Zealand, Dr Lee had the privilege of being exposed to a variety of unique cultures. This has led to an appreciation and awareness of each of her patient’s individual needs. Dr Lee is a firm believer in preventive and minimally invasive dentistry, and her goal is to broaden her patients’ understanding of their oral health so that each person will be able to take control of his/her own oral health and in so doing, improve it. Dr Lee enjoys meeting and getting to know each of her patients, and will take the time to listen to and address their dental concerns to the best of her ability so that she may provide a comprehensive and high-quality treatment plan tailored to each specific patient. During her leisure, Dr Lee enjoys running, badminton, trying out new recipes (to the dismay of her friends and family!) and a good novel. She also loves travelling; having travelled across most of North America, Western Europe, Southeast Asia and Australasia, she is now setting her sights on South America.

After graduating from the University of Otago with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (with distinction), Jessica worked as a maxillofacial house surgeon in Dunedin. This role not only involved performing general dentistry, but also included managing facial trauma such as fractured bones, lacerations and damaged teeth. She enjoyed her time in the hospital, but felt her main interest and passion was in general dentistry and decided to concentrate solely on this. Originally from Palmerston North, her and her husband returned to the region to be closer to their families. Jessica spent a few years working in Levin before joining the Broadway Dental Team at the beginning of 2013. Jessica believes it is important to create a trusting dentist-patient relationship, especially as many people are apprehensive when receiving treatment. She strives to ensure treatment plans cater for people’s individual needs, factoring in the best treatment available, as well as any financial or time pressures. Jessica performs and enjoys all aspects of general dentistry. Jessica’s husband is a doctor, so their free time is very valuable to them and is spent running, cycling and exploring the beautiful places around our local region.
