Meet the Dental Team at East Adelaide Dental Studio

Who Supports Your Dental Care at East Adelaide Dental Studio?

The East Adelaide Dental Studio support team includes 5 dedicated oral health professionals and administrative staff. This dental team in Adelaide ensures patient visits remain comfortable, efficient, and welcoming.

The clinic divides staff into three primary support categories to maintain practice operations:

  1. Oral Health Therapists
  2. Front Office Coordinators
  3. Dental Assistants


Each member fulfils specific clinical or administrative duties. The combined efforts of these 5 professionals allow the dentists to focus entirely on providing high-quality clinical care. From the moment a patient books an appointment to the conclusion of their treatment, the support staff manages every non-clinical aspect.

What Role Does the Oral Health Therapist Play?

The Oral Health Therapist provides preventive dental care, hygiene education, and professional teeth cleaning. Blanca serves as the Oral Health Therapist at the Glenside clinic. She works alongside the principal dentists to maintain long-term patient oral health.

Preventive treatments include comprehensive teeth cleaning and periodontal therapy. The therapist removes calculus and plaque buildup that standard brushing misses. Blanca educates patients on proper brushing and flossing techniques tailored to their specific dental anatomy. Regular professional cleaning reduces the risk of gingivitis and advanced periodontal disease. Learn more about our preventive scale and cleans.

How Does the Front Office Team Support Your Visit?

The front office team coordinates patient bookings, handles administrative inquiries, and processes health fund claims. Christine Tran operates as the Front Office Coordinator. She serves as the primary point of contact for patients entering the Glenside practice.

The front office staff manages the daily appointment schedule across multiple treatment rooms. They answer questions regarding treatment plans, pricing estimates, and practice policies. Patients process private health fund claims on the spot using the clinic’s HICAPS terminal. The administrative staff ensures a smooth transition from the waiting room to the treatment chair.
