🦷 This National Science Week, we’re celebrating the science behind every smile!

Sara started her journey at TAFE Queensland as a dental prosthetics student after moving to Australia, and now she’s back in the lab teaching others.

From creating dentures to working with real patients in our public clinics, Sara’s story shows how hands-on learning and science come together to make a real difference in people’s lives.

Now, as a Clinical Demonstrator, she’s helping our students build the same skills and confidence she once had.

Science isn’t just in textbooks – it’s in every smile our students help create.

“My grandmother was a colour consultant for Dulux in her prime, and we’ve always bounced ideas - whether renovating around the house or just picking new furniture.”
