Get to know Kara, our sunny Dental Assistant in Waurn Ponds!
🦷 What do you love most about working in orthodontics?
I really love before and afters and how much people love their smile when they have finish their orthodontic journey. There is just something extremely satisfying about straight teeth!
🦷 What’s your favourite Urban Smile memory?
Definitely the Geelong Wedding Guide Expo with the Waurn Ponds Team & Dr Igor Lavrin at Deakin University! Meeting future brides & grooms, sipping mocktails, dancing at the silent disco and having the best time together - so much fun!
🦷 What are your favourite places to visit in Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre?
Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre is such a great little shopping centre! My go-to spots would definitely have to be 3 Sisters for a hot chocolate with extra marshmallows (non-negotiable 😂), DECJUBA for a little window shopping and you can't beat Schnitz for a Caesar salad.
🦷 What's your go-to pump up song?
It totally depends on my mood 🤔… but if I had to pick just one, it would have to be Wild Ones by Flo Rida - best played nice and loud!
🦷 What do you like to do outside work?
Outside of work I love going to the movies, concerts, camping, and heading off 4WDing with the 4WD club. I also really enjoy spending quality time with friends and family. On the quieter side, sometimes there’s nothing better than relaxing on the couch with a good Netflix binge.
See Kara and the rest of our friendly Waurn Ponds team in clinic and start your own smile journey.
