Meet the Team

With more than 70 years of combined experience, Gary Saunders and Tony Lombardi bring a wealth of expertise and a shared passion for helping people smile with confidence.

They’ve united to create the Launceston Denture & Mouthguard Centre – a modern practice built on trust, quality, and genuine care for every patient.

  • With over 30 years of hands-on clinical and technical experience as a Dental Technician/Prosthetist, I’m proud to say that I’m not just a dental prosthetist but a trusted partner in restoring confidence, comfort and smiles.

    Every solution I provide our patients is tailored to the individual, as I have a deep understanding of facial aesthetics, bite dynamics and material science.

    I listen, I explain and make sure you feel heard and understood, able to make decisions that really work for you.

    I’m able to combine time-honoured techniques with the latest scanning technology to deliver prosthetics that are functional, long-lasting, and well-fitting but also beautifully natural.

    Working closely with our in-house lab allows for faster turnaround times and meticulous quality control – so you get the best, without the wait.

  • Born and bred in Launceston, I’ve always been proud to call this community home. As a dental prosthetist with over forty years of experience and a business owner, my focus has always been on providing personalised care that meets each patient’s unique needs. I understand how a smile can change lives, and I’m passionate about helping people achieve both optimal oral health and the confidence to live their best smile.

    Throughout my career, I’ve specialised in complex reconstructive treatments and denture services, including new dentures, relines, and emergency repairs, always striving for natural results that combine precision, functionality, and aesthetics.

    At our practice, my team and I are committed to creating a warm, welcoming environment where patients feel relaxed and supported. Every smile matters, and every patient is at the centre of what we do.
