Carolyn
DENTAL HYGIENIST
Having experienced Dentistry through Dental Assisting, I knew it was a field with much to offer. Working with one of the first registered Dental Hygienists in Victoria inspired me. Australia had one school in Adelaide, and after competing with 500 applicants and 200 interviews, I was one of 12 selected, feeling like I had won the lottery.
I graduated in ‘96 and began my career in a Specialist Periodontal Practice in Victoria. Surrounded by challenges and a Specialist who loved to teach, my learning curve never ceased. I've witnessed Dentistry's constant evolution and received incredible guidance from skilled clinicians in Melbourne, even demonstrating clinically to students at Melbourne University.
After a family holiday in Perth in 2019, we relocated in 2023. Leaving Toorak after 23 years was heartbreaking, but guiding patients to the right dental solutions brings me joy. No mouth is the same!
I am thrilled to be part of a highly skilled, kind, and motivated team passionate about finding the right dental answer for you. This is an exciting new chapter for me!
Parenting my two daughters brings me happiness and reward. My oldest works as a Nurse at PCH, and my youngest is studying to be a Librarian with a passion for rare books and History. I also love the highs and lows of the AFL season, supporting the mighty Dees! The beach steals the remainder of my free moments—simply stunning.
