Ms Ingrid J Sawyer

BOH (Melb), Dental Hygienist and Dental Therapist

Ms Ingrid J Sawyer is a female Dental Hygienist and Dental Therapist.

After graduating from The University of Melbourne in 2009, Ingrid has been working in both the private and the public sector as an Oral Health Therapist (Dental Hygiene and Dental Therapy). She joined the Lara Smile Group team in 2020.

In her years of experience thus far as a practicing clinician she has become very aware of taking a holistic approach with her patients. Connecting their oral health to their overall systemic health, an area where more and more links are being discovered.

Ingrid likes to build a trusting and collaborative relationship with her patients, listening to them and tailoring treatments to their individual needs. Patients have commented on her thoroughness and gentle hand, and parents have verbalised that they appreciate the way she treats their children; with patience, gentleness and a calm demeanour, often asking for her specifically. Always having her patients’ best interests at heart, she loves to go the extra mile for them.

As is a requirement for all practicing dental professionals, Ingrid keeps up with continued professional development and thrives on always learning and growing; allowing the most up to date and highest possible quality of care.
