Lumino Urges Kiwis To Think About Oral Health

Lumino Urges Kiwis To Think About Their Oral Health

New Zealanders are storing up trouble by pushing concerns about their oral health to the back of their minds according to the country’s only national provider, Lumino The Dentists. The company’s latest initiative to get people to think about their dental care is the chance to win five nights in Fiji with return airfares for two, staying at the Sofitel Resort and Spa.

Andy Tapper, Lumino managing director explains: `We’re trying to get people to come in and see their dentist so that any small problems they may have don’t get worse through neglect. With any consultation or treatment at a Lumino practice we’re offering the chance to go into a draw to win a fabulous holiday.’
The latest initiative follows a study of over 18,000 people by the University of Otago in Wellington which showed that 23% of New Zealanders had put off going to the dentist in the last 12 months.

Lumino has also has teamed up with Q Card to help people budget for their oral health care with a 12 month interest free plan for treatments of more than $1,000. The offer is available for a limited period and expires on 30 September 2009.
In another joint initiative from Lumino The Dentists and Opalescence Tooth Whitening Systems the company has cut the cost of dentist strength whitening by up to 50%, by offering a take-home formulation for only $299.

For further details of the offer and participating practices visit www.lumino.co.nz or call Lumino’s free phone number 0508 LUMINO (0508 586466)
