Meet The Dentists

Dr. Erika Guerra, the Principal Dentist at Morphett Vale Dental Care, is proud to lead an exceptional dental team dedicated to delivering outstanding dental care.

With 19 years of experience as a dental practitioner, Erika graduated from The University of Adelaide and has honed her expertise in the private sector.

Since establishing her own dental practice in 2013, her keen interest in cosmetic dentistry and facial cosmetic procedures spurred her to pursue further training and studies in the fields of implantology and non-surgical cosmetic injectables. She completed her DIA Implantology Fellowship in 2018 through Miami University and University Mariana Galvez. 

Dr. Rachael McCusker joined the team at Morphett Vale Dental Care at the end of 2019. With five years of dental experience, she graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2014.

After her graduation, Rachael worked in Scotland for three years, where she completed postgraduate examinations to achieve her MFDS qualifications. In 2017, she relocated to Adelaide and has since been practicing as a general dentist in the CBD and Findon areas.

Dr Casey began her dental career over 21 years ago, starting as a dental assistant, an experience that gave her a strong foundation in patient care and a deep understanding of the dental environment from the very beginning. This early hands-on experience shaped her warm, people-first approach and her commitment to making every visit a positive and comfortable experience, particularly for families and children.

Her passion for learning led her to complete a Bachelor of Oral Health in 2009 at the University of Adelaide, followed by a Graduate Certificate in Oral Health Science in 2017. With a strong desire to continue growing professionally and to provide the highest standard of care, Dr Casey returned to the University of Adelaide to complete her Bachelor of Dental Surgery.

Dr Casey enjoys getting to know her patients and supporting families at every stage of life, from children attending their first dental visit to adults maintaining long-term oral health. She believes in a gentle, respectful approach to dentistry and takes pride in helping patients feel relaxed, informed, and confident in their care.

Outside of the clinic, Dr Casey enjoys a quiet, family-focused lifestyle with her husband. She loves spending time in the garden and relaxing with her two dogs, Wilbur and Frankie, and her goldfish.
