Oral health therapy

for Adults with Disabilities

We come to you

For adults with disability, accessing oral health care can be genuinely difficult — whether that's getting to a clinic, managing sensory sensitivities, communicating with providers, or simply finding someone who understands.

Seen from behind, an older adult with gray hair wearing a brown sweater sits in a manual wheelchair at the end of a narrow indoor hallway.

​​We remove those barriers entirely. We come to your home, your group home, your supported independent living (SIL) accommodation, or wherever you feel most comfortable. No travel. No unfamiliar environments. Just calm, respectful, expert oral health care delivered where you already are.

Care that works around you — not the other way around

We understand that oral health has often been stressful, uncomfortable, or simply neglected for adults with disability. Past experiences with dental care can leave lasting anxiety. Sensory sensitivities can make even routine oral hygiene feel overwhelming.

Our approach is unhurried, respectful, and completely led by you. We work at your pace, in your space, and with your support network around you. We never rush, and we never judge.

Many of our adult clients haven't had consistent oral health support in years. We're not here to make them feel bad about that — we're here to help them move forward.

ADULTS WE WORK WITH

  • Adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)

  • Adults with intellectual disability

  • Adults with physical disability or acquired brain injury

  • Adults with sensory processing differences

  • Adults with complex communication needs

  • Adults with complex health conditions that affect oral health or oral hygiene routines

  • Adults living in supported independent living (SIL) or shared supported accommodation

  • Adults receiving in-home or community support

You don't need a formal diagnosis to access our services. If oral hygiene is difficult and you'd like support, we want to hear from you.

NDIS - Plan Managed and Self Managed

We work with plan-managed and self-managed NDIS participants.

If you're plan-managed, we invoice your plan manager directly. If you're self-managed, we provide a tax invoice for you to claim reimbursement.

Not sure if oral health support is in your plan? We're happy to talk it through with you or your support coordinator. Many participants are surprised to find this support is already available to them.

Note: We are not an NDIS-registered provider. We work with plan-managed and self-managed participants only. Agency-managed participants will need to contact us to discuss options

Referring a participant

If you're a support coordinator looking for oral health support for a participant, we'd love to hear from you. We're easy to work with, responsive, and experienced in navigating the practical realities of NDIS plans and supports.

Get in touch with the participant's name, age, location, and a brief overview of their support needs and we'll come back to you quickly.

Ready to get started 
or want to ask a
question first?

We know reaching out for something new can feel like a big step. It's not — just a conversation. We'll listen, answer your questions honestly, and help you work out whether we're the right fit.
