We know that great posture means healthier bodies and happier smiles! 💪 Our team recently joined a Posture Strengthening Pilates session led by our very own Dr Karuna at Club Pilates Taringa! @clubpilatestaringa
Did you know that outside of the clinic, Dr Karuna is also a qualified Pilates Instructor? In this posture-focused session, Dr Karuna really put us through our paces! This class was tailored for dental professionals, focusing on building strength, improving posture and supporting our bodies while we work in demanding positions every day.
Thank you, Dr Karuna, for such an inspiring (and sweaty!) session, we are already standing taller! 🌟

Dr Karuna recently returned from her volunteer dentistry trip to Nepal, a truly inspiring effort to bring care and comfort to those who need it most 🌏
Together with a local Nepali dentist, Dr Karuna helped treat up to 120 patients each day, providing essential dental care and completing an average of 2–3 fillings per patient 🦷
High up in the mountains of Bhotenamlang, Sindhupalchok, the team focused on helping school children, providing pain relief, stabilising young smiles and ensuring better oral health for the future.
We are so proud of Dr Karuna for her compassion, dedication and commitment to making a difference, both here at home and around the world!
