Ms Karen L Clark is a female Dental Hygienist.
Originally from Adelaide, Karen graduated in 1998, with a Diploma of Dental Hygiene. She initially worked in general private practice and an unique unit within the Adelaide Dental Hospital which included treating periodontal disease, systemic disease and associated pathology, and with a facility to treat patients with special needs.
During her time there she encouraged her holistic focus and approach to dentistry. Being continually challenged to think more broadly about the situations that were presenting, adapt my clinical skills and improve her means of communication to be more effective.
She then travelled, working and living in Switzerland. Her work in a private practice further refined her communication skills with both a new language and way of life to adapt to, before returning to Australia and moving to Melbourne in 2007.
After marriage, a couple of marathons and a couple of children, she found herself still loving dentistry. People describe her as an enthusiastic and empathetic person who will always try and look for answers. She truly enjoys her role in equipping people with the necessary skills and information that empowers them to make changes to improve themselves and to take ownership of their own health.
She recently embarked on further study in Oro-facial Myology which is further educating her in a more holistic approach and understanding of how the different areas of our body operate and interact. Stay tuned!
