Meet Dr Chris Stoltz

Compassionate Family Dentist with a Passion for Preventive and Restorative Dentistry

Dr Chris Stoltz, Dentist Dr Chris Stoltz is a dedicated and empathetic dentist who brings a unique blend of life experience, clinical skill, and compassion to his dental practice. Originally from a small rural town in northern Alberta, Canada, Chris’s journey into dentistry began with a Bachelor of Arts (Science minor) at Concordia University College, which he pursued while raising four children—a testament to his determination and resilience.

Driven by a childhood fear of the dentist, Chris set out to change the narrative. His goal has always been to make dental visits more welcoming, positive, and anxiety-free. This patient-first philosophy led him to complete a Bachelor of Dental Science (Honours) at the University of Queensland after relocating with his family to Brisbane.

Dr Chris is passionate about making every patient feel heard, safe, and empowered during their dental appointments. He has a particular interest in preventive dentistry, helping patients take control of their oral health and avoid more serious dental issues later in life. He’s also skilled in restorative procedures and is especially drawn to endodontics (root canal therapy), dental implants, and wisdom tooth extractions—all treatments that significantly improve both function and quality of life.

For the past two years, Chris has worked as a general dentist in Bellingen, where he has delivered quality dental care to a diverse community. He has developed a deep understanding of the challenges involved in rural dental care, including limited access to services and the importance of personalised, consistent care.

Chris believes that even small improvements in a person’s smile can lead to life-changing boosts in confidence and well-being. Whether he’s helping to relieve tooth pain, restore a missing tooth with an implant, or guide a nervous patient through their first appointment, his goal is always the same: to make a positive impact.

When he’s not in the clinic, you’ll find Dr Chris enjoying the great outdoors—surfing, running, hiking, and spending quality time with his family. Living near the beach is the perfect complement to his busy dental career.
