Trudi is a caring and gentle Oral Health Therapist who puts people first. From the moment you sit in the chair, her focus is on helping you feel comfortable, listened to, and never rushed or judged. She takes time to understand your concerns, explains things in plain language, and works with you to choose the care that suits your goals, comfort level, and budget.
With over 25 years in dentistry, Trudi is passionate about preventive care and long-term gum health—helping patients protect their smiles with gentle, thorough treatment and practical advice they can use at home. She has a special interest in periodontal (gum) health and education, making complex topics easy to understand so patients feel confident about their oral health.
She has extensive experience in preventative oral health for both adults and children. She is highly skilled in providing thorough dental hygiene care using gentle Airflow® technology. Her particular interest lies in providing preventative and restorative care to children, supporting healthy smiles from a young age through to adulthood.
Trudi holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Oral Health Therapy and Hygiene (Charles Sturt University), a Certificate IV in Dental Radiology, and a Certificate III in Dental Assisting (RMIT University). Her training supports a comprehensive, tailored approach—whether you’re coming in for a routine clean, gum care, or support for a younger family member. She connects particularly well with children and teens, using a calm, reassuring style that helps even nervous patients feel at ease.
Outside the clinic, Trudi enjoys baking, keeping active with pilates, yoga, and the gym, and spending quality time with her family—especially planning holidays and social catch-ups.
