Adrian is a 1994 graduate from the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Otago. He currently provides implant and surgical dentistry at Lumino Central, and also practices surgical dentistry at his practice on Auckland's North Shore. Adrian is part of the clinical staff at the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Otago, where he has been a Senior Professional Practice Fellow since 2023. He has been placing and restoring implants since 1998. Adrian won the Lumino Clinical Open Excellence Award, at the 2024 Lumino Clinician's Conference, for his work on the provision of full arch rehabilitation and implants.

Dr Adrian likes meeting lots of people and maintaining long-term relationships with his patients. He also likes setting a high standard of clinical excellence in practice and truly believes that working with like-minded dentists at Lumino helps achieve this.

He is married to fellow dentist, Dr Sienna Pat, and despite being in the same field, they manage to not talk much dentistry at all at home!

An avid pianist, he also used to play jazz piano at a number of bars and clubs in Dunedin and Auckland in his early twenties, but now restricts his audience to his children, who fortunately, have very short attention spans and love “The Wheels On The Bus” - an easy audience, you may surmise, but surprisingly very discerning and frown upon variations to the main theme.

The family has a fluff ball Shih Tzu that thinks that it rules the home.

Adrian Tan is also one of Auckland's Leading All On Four Dental Implant (TeethXpress) providers.
