Meet Lauren Head

Oral Health Therapist

Lauren is a compassionate and gentle Oral Health Therapist dedicated to creating healthy, confident smiles for patients of all ages. She particularly enjoys supporting children during their very first dental visits, as well as helping adults take positive steps toward improving and maintaining their oral health.

Lauren is passionate about delivering a warm, educational and comfortable dental experience, with a strong focus on personalised care and preventive dentistry. She believes that empowering patients with knowledge is key to long-term oral health and strives to make every appointment both informative and enjoyable.

Since joining Dentistry on Unley in 2015, Lauren has built lasting relationships with families across generations. She has a special interest in professional whitening treatments and loves helping patients achieve brighter, more confident smiles.

Lauren graduated in 2014 with a Bachelor of Oral Health from the University of Adelaide, where she was awarded the Dental Hygiene Association Award and the Golden Scaler Award in recognition of her academic excellence. In her final year, she was selected to travel to Vietnam on scholarship to provide dental care to underprivileged children — an experience that further strengthened her passion for community-focused care.

Outside of the practice, Lauren enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. She loves cooking, gardening, exploring the outdoors with her family, and sharing time with friends and loved ones.
