Meet The Team

Principal dentist, Dr David Trigger, was welcomed to the Wanniassa Dental Surgery practice in 1994. Originally from Queensland, Dr Trigger graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Dental Science in 1984. Following his studies, he spent several years working in large group dental practices in Toowoomba and Hobart before taking up the position of Regional Dental Officer in Katherine (NT). Later in 1990, Dr Trigger and his wife Georgina, moved to Canberra where he returned to private practice.

Backed by over 30 years' experience, Dr Trigger is highly skilled in all areas of dental treatments. He holds special interests in endodontic and cosmetic restorations and is committed to delivering positive patient experiences. With each and every patient, Dr Trigger's primary focus is to provide his patients with the best possible care and treatment and building strong relationships to last a lifetime.

Outside of dentistry, Dr Trigger is often found spending quality time with his wife Georgina and their three children. He also enjoys bushwalking, running, reading, economics and playing soccer in the Canberra Masters competition.

Wanniassa Dental Surgery welcomed Dr Paul Narracott to the team as one of the principal dentist in 1992. Dr Narracott graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor Degree in Science (1980) and Dental Science (1987). After receiving his dental qualifications he made the move to Canberra to begin his career and working in private practice.

Although experienced in all areas of general dentistry, Dr Narracott holds particular interests in oral surgery, cosmetic dentistry and endodontics. He also enjoys being able to interact with his patients on a regular basis and the collegiality of the local dental profession.

Outside of the practice, Dr Narracott is often found playing, watching or thinking about sport (previously held a sporting career at the Australian Institute of Sport). He enjoys getting outdoors and playing a game of tennis or round of golf with his wife, Robyn. Dr Narracott is also a proud member of the ACT Sporting Hall of Fame.

Born and raised in India, Dr Neha Suri moved to Australia in early 2017 and joined our team at Wanniassa Dental Surgery in 2019. The visuals of pearly whites have always been Neha’s weakness and is what inspired her to enter the dental industry.

Throughout Neha’s life she was taught that hard work and self-belief is the mantra to success. After graduating from Chaudhary Charan Singh University, India with a Bachelor of Dental Science in 2010, Neha chose to continue honing her skills at the University of Otago (New Zealand). Her career as a dentist has seen her manage two dental centres and lead a team of professionals in a busy hospital. Dr Suri also spent two years volunteering her dental services with charitable organisations and schools in India.

Neha always aspired to be a dentist who is capable of making people laugh and giving them a reason to show their healthy, sparkling teeth. Dr Suri likes to involve patients in the procedure and educate them along the way to help them achieve their oral health goals. She enjoys the freedom and flexibility of her job. She loves the mix of creativity, detective work, and intellectual challenge that dentistry provides.

Away from Wanniassa Dental, Neha enjoys working out and playing sports. Now that’s she’s settled down in a sports loving country she is trying to identify the one that suits her best.

It was during this time that she found a passion for all things teeth and decided to study a Bachelor of Dental Science at Charles Sturt University Orange from where she graduated in 2016.

After completing her studies, Caitlin moved to the Central Coast where she worked in private practice for the past 5 years. Building upon her foundational clinical skills and knowledge Caitlin enjoyed a coastal lifestyle before embarking on a new adventure and making the move to Canberra in mid-2022. 

Caitlin enjoys all areas of general dentistry, with a passion for restorative and cosmetic procedures. Caitlin strives to develop a strong relationship with each patient, allowing her to deliver high-quality dental care in a calming and compassionate manner.

Above all, Caitlin loves educating her patients about their oral health and she endeavours to make everyone’s experience at the dentist an enjoyable one. Caitlin has a calm and caring approach to her work and a knack for settling anxious patients.

Outside of the Wanniassa Dental Surgery, Caitlin enjoys keeping active and is an avid runner! She hopes to get some half-marathons and marathons under her belt in the near future.
