A Toowoomba local, Kristy has always been fascinated by the intricacies of human biology. Dentistry provides the perfect way to apply this passion, restoring optimal oral health while maintaining a strong biological focus in her care. She excels at helping patients overcome dental fears through gentle, positive experiences that build trust and comfort. Above all, Kristy thrives on transforming smiles, restoring confidence, and empowering people to feel great about their oral health.
Kristy chose a career that would continually challenge her intellect and support ongoing personal and professional growth. Dentistry has surpassed her expectations. She graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor of Oral Health (Oral Health Therapy) and a Bachelor of Psychology, complemented by a certificate in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy. Dedicated to lifelong learning, she regularly pursues professional development in paediatric oral health and myofunctional dentistry to refine her skills and better assist patients with myofunctional disorders.
Kristy’s true passion lies in paediatric dentistry. She is committed to creating positive, enjoyable dental visits for children, helping them appreciate the lifelong benefits of good oral hygiene from an early age. Her psychology background strengthens her ability to connect with young patients, manage anxiety, and build meaningful relationships that promote lasting oral health care. Children respond warmly to her approachable nature, and schools often invite her to lead engaging oral health education sessions that make learning enjoyable and effective.
Kristy champions preventive dentistry for patients of all ages, from toddlers to teens and adults, delivering tailored care that addresses issues before they develop. Her enthusiasm shines in every interaction, earning the trust and appreciation of those she treats. With advanced training in myofunctional therapy (often called Myotherapy), she is especially passionate about its transformative benefits for committed patients.
Working collaboratively with our dentists and specialists, Kristy upholds the exceptional, patient-focused standards that TSD is known for.
We’re excited for you to meet Kristy at your next appointment. She looks forward to welcoming you and your family into our caring team!
