At Sunshine Coast Smile Centre we have an in-house hygienist, Sophie Dodd to cater to your oral hygiene needs.

Sophie will remove soft and hard deposits from your teeth, teach you how to practice good oral hygiene, and provide other preventive dental care. She will also perform root planing as a periodontal therapy, take dental x-rays, and apply cavity-preventive agents such as fluoride.

Although she may not diagnose diseases, she can prepare clinical and laboratory diagnostic tests for Dr’s Jon Kerr and Keith Doonan to interpret.

Sophie will help you develop and maintain good oral health.  For example, she may explain the relationship between diet and oral health or inform you how to select toothbrushes and show you how to brush and floss your teeth.
