Your support team

Having a straighter, brighter and more confident smile is greatly desired and beneficial in many ways. Jessica enjoys being a part of each patient’s journey of what orthodontic treatment can do to enhance their beautiful smiles.

You will see Jessica sharing her proficiency between the front office and treatment consulting; she will do her best to assist you to make sure your experience at Modern Orthodontics is a pleasant one.

Outside of work, Jess enjoys spending her time outdoors and she loves her animals, having her own little hobby farm.

Sierra has a strong interest in the health industry and is currently completing a Bachelor of Food and Nutrition part time.

When she’s not studying or at work, you can find her in her veggie garden or cooking healthy and exotic meals for her friends and family.

You will find me on reception, keen to learn about a different healthcare area. I have worked in a customer service role for over 4 years, so I hope that the skills I have acquired can assist you in having a great experience at Modern Orthodontics.

Outside of work, I enjoy being active on the netball court or skiing. When I’m not at the snow, you will find me snuggled up with my dog watching Netflix.

I look forward to meeting you all on your journey to a perfect smile!

Karen joined Modern Orthodontics back in 2018 and is still constantly learning something new around the clinic. She enjoys working as a mixed role in chair side assisting, reception, treatment coordinating and most importantly helping our patients reach the end goal of having that smile they always wanted.

Outside of work, Karen enjoys spending time with friends and family, exploring and checking out new restaurants around Melbourne.

I finished my studies and received my Cert III in 2016. I wanted to be a dental assistant ever since I had my own orthodontic treatment in high school!

I have worked in both general dentistry as well as orthodontics.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and can often be found playing Fortnite with my children! I also enjoy reading and spending time at the beach!

In my University days, I first started assisting and absolutely loved learning about the world of orthodontics, I enjoyed the methodical fast paced approach, and being part of a sociable team environment!

In my spare time, you’ll either find me playing with my greyhound, studying something spiritual, or sewing greyhound clothing for my little business!

As a certified dental assistant, you’ll see me working alongside our Specialist Orthodontists, Oral Hygienists and Therapists to ensure your treatment is as smooth and comfortable every step of the way so that by the end of your journey you leave us with the perfect smile you deserve!

It’s great to be able to assist at Modern Orthodontics especially during 2020 the Year of Covid-19 because caring for our patients overall well-being and not just their teeth is more important now than ever before.

Also, it keeps me on my feet which is what I need otherwise I’d be in bed all day eating and watching my beloved Netflix!

I am interested in dentistry, it is a great opportunity to start my new journey as a dental assistant and change my field into orthodontics. I am excited to learn more orthodontics and how to achieve perfect smile with different treatments.

Outside of work, I love painting, travelling and exploring the world.

I look forward to seeing you all.

As well as assisting our Specialist Orthodontists, Jess has also found a love of assisting people through her reception and Treatment Coordinator roles to help make their orthodontic visit as stress free and informed as possible.

In her spare time, Jess keeps herself busy by volunteering with shelter dogs and the St Kilda penguin colony, studying a Masters of Biotechnology and training for her first marathon. She also loves coffee, craft beer and vegan food, and can usually be found at her favourite cafe curled up with a soy latte and her laptop.

Vivienne is happy with her job because of its relative independence, challenge and flexibility. She says the great part is the trust and cooperation from the Modern Orthodontics team.

Outside of work, Vivienne says her personal life is simple: she is either eating or thinking.
