The 2019 Orthodontic Scholarship

***Nominations for 2019 are now open***

Nominations for the 2019 McIntosh Dental Orthodontic Scholarship open on 1 August 2019! To make sure you don’t miss out, follow our Facebook page to stay up to date with all Orthodontic Scholarship information!

What Are The Orthodontic Scholarships?

The Orthodontic Scholarships are four prizes of $5,000 towards orthodontic treatment at McIntosh Dental. The prizes are awarded to four deserving students attending one of eight selected West Auckland schools. Students are nominated by friends, family, and members of the community. The four winners are selected by our scholarship committee including Dr Alex McIntosh and Dr Milan Raniga.

How Does It Work?

During the nomination period (1 August – 31 August 2019), we will be accepting applications for nominees. After applications close, the scholarship committee will select a few finalists to attend McIntosh Dental for a complimentary orthodontic consultation. Following this consultation, the committee will select the scholarship winners by the end of September. The winners will each receive a prize of $5,000 towards orthodontic treatment at McIntosh Dental. See the full terms and conditions for more information.
