Healthy Smiles, Happy lives

Working from clinics, vans and even landing strips, our Oral Health Team encompasses emergency-focused treatments as well as a preventative program proactively targeting at-risk patients living with diabetes and chronic disease.

  • Our regular fly-in clinics mean people of all ages living in remote locations can access high-quality dental care at no cost.

    With state-of-the-art mobile dental equipment, our team provides dental care ranging from simple check-ups, x-rays and hygiene services through to fillings and extractions. 

    We offer comprehensive dental consultations that aim to empower and motivate residents in rural and remote communities towards good oral health and prevention of oral disease.

    Services are free of charge and available to all – referrals are not required.

  • Oral Health fly-in dental clinics visit:

    South Australia: Andamooka, Innamincka, Kingoonya, Leigh Creek, Marla, Marree, Oodnadatta, William Creek and Yunta.

    Northern Territory: Baniyala, GanGan, Kiwirrkurra, Mutitjulu, Walungurru, and in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, we provide care for remote patients who are ‘in town’ to access Purple House services.

  • Good oral health contributes positively to physical, mental and social wellbeing, enabling people to speak, eat and socialise unhindered by disease, pain, discomfort or embarrassment.

    Poor oral health can have negative impacts on speech, sleep, productivity, self-esteem, psychological and social wellbeing, relationships and general quality of life.

    Research shows a link between oral disease and specific health conditions and chronic diseases including diabetes, aspiration pneumonia and adverse pregnancy outcomes.
