Queensland Health’s Oral Health Service offers differing work environments including clinics, hospitals and laboratories. Our dentists work in large and small adult facilities, various school-based locations and mobile dental vans. Outreach services are also provided to correctional centres, aged care facilities and hospitals.
Our service has modern surgery equipment and materials, and encourages contemporary minimally invasive dentistry. Most of your day will be spent with patients. However, learning and professional development are important to the organisation and development programs, in-service training and participation in research projects are actively encouraged.
As a Queensland Health dentist you will be part of an Oral Health Team. This can also include oral health and dental therapists, dental technicians, dental prosthetists and dental assistants. Professional support is also provided by orthodontists, oral surgeons, oral medicine specialists and anaesthetists.
