Dr Becky Liefting is a female General Dentist from the UK. She graduated from Leeds University UK in 2009. Her interest in Dentistry started at the tender age of 14 when her own dentist helped her overcome her fears of having her first filling. Her interest in Dentistry and all things tooth related started from there! She decided she would make it her mission to give as many people as possible that great experience that she had. After graduating, Becky completed further studies in London, including working at a specialist clinic for nervous patients (so if you're a bit anxious Becky will put you at ease). She also completed several restorative courses and worked at a practice in London for several years before meeting her husband, Adam. Adam is an Aussie and Becky didn't take much persuading to move down-under. That was in 2013 and now Becky, Adam, little Florence and their French Bulldog, Rupert, are firmly settled in Melbourne. Becky is a skilled general practitioner providing all aspects of dental care for her patients, as well as aesthetic and functional improvements with Invisalign/ Invisalign Teen and short-term orthodontics. She particularly enjoys the artistic/ cosmetic aspect of dentistry and finds bonding beautiful natural looking restorations, to gently improve a smile, one of the most rewarding parts of her profession.
