We sincerely hope it helps, and we’re looking forward to meeting you. If you have any questions at any stage, please call our team on (07) 3263 2677 and we’ll be happy to assist you.
At Today’s Dentistry, we provide a unique guilt-free, judgement-free dental experience for all our patients.
Here’s a quick overview of what makes your experience at Today’s Dentistry unique.
Your first visit at Today’s Dentistry is all about creating a custom Dental Roadmap so you know exactly what condition your teeth and gums are in now, and what your options are to treat any of your dental health challenges.
Unlike other dental practices, we do not simply get started with a “dental check up and clean”. Many patients have additional dental challenges that need to be thoroughly assessed and addressed prior to receiving professional dental cleanings from our skilled Oral Health Therapists.
If you would like to schedule a professional cleaning with an Oral Health Therapist on the same day as your custom Dental Roadmap session, please speak to our team on (07) 3263 2677 and we can schedule an extended appointment time for you.
Below you will find detailed information about our location, how to drive here, where to park, and what bus routes will get you to our practice.

Many patients delay dental treatment due to the cost. Unfortunately, this often leads to a cascade of issues and patients not receiving help until something bad happens like experiencing dental pain, chipping or cracking a tooth, or losing a tooth altogether.
Delaying dental treatment almost always costs more in the long run, as little problems become big problems that need complex restorative treatments to correct.
That’s why we’re passionate about providing multiple payment options, including interest-free dental payment plans.
If you wish to spread the cost of treatment over time, we offer a choice of interest-free payment plans which allow you to start treatment immediately before dental health problems become worse.
We provide three different interest-free payment plan options through Humm’s National Dental Plan, DentiCare, and ZipMoney. Each of these third-party providers has their own terms and conditions, and we will discuss the differences between the options with you during your consultation.
You can complete an application online in our practice in about 10 minutes and we usually receive a response the same day. This allows you to receive the right dental care for your situation.
To reduce your out of pocket expenses we offer on-the-spot health fund claims via HICAPS. We can directly deduct your health fund’s contribution from your total and you only pay the difference.
Please note, you won’t find us on any “Member’s Choice” lists for any dental health insurance funds. Some health funds provide a list of dentists who provide treatment at a fee determined by the health fund, known as “Preferred Providers” or “Member’s Choice”. In these schemes the primary concern is ‘cost containment’.
These schemes are developed by Private Health Insurance companies so the scheme’s primary focus is to benefit the Fund’s bottom line and not the patient’s well-being.
That is why we remain a proudly independent dental practice. Our primary focus is on providing you with the highest-quality dental care, not cutting corners to please Private Health Insurance companies.
We sincerely hope this information helps you feel comfortable prior to your first consultation.
If you need anything in the meantime, give us a call on (07) 3263 2677.
We’re looking forward to meeting you.

Dr Sharon's commitment to excellence has shown itself right from the start of her dental career, when she graduated from the University of Queensland with Class I Honours. Her commitment to her craft is reflected in the numerous professional development courses she participates in, with a desire to get the best possible outcomes for her patients.
Dr. Sharon is passionate about empowering patients through education about their dental conditions, supporting them through overcoming dental anxiety, and helping them achieve their dental goals.
Away from the clinic, Dr. Sharon is an avid baker, a keen photographer, and a fitness enthusiast aiming to conquer the Bridge to Brisbane run in 2023.
I always loved going to my own dental visits, and one day I honestly just though ‘why don’t I give dental assisting a go’. I applied for a job and got a call back straight away, and have been in the industry ever since!
I studied my Cert 3 in Dental Assisting online alongside working full time in my first dental job. I chose to do it online so I had more time to work as I am more of a hands on learner.
I LOVE smile makeovers. I love seeing the joy, and happiness it brings patients and the amount of confidence they gain by having their dream smile.
I love feeling like I am making some sort of impact on people’s lives. Whether it is helping them with their smile makeover, holding their hand during a procedure or just being an ear to talk to and a shoulder to cry on.
The team, they are all so wonderful and both Darryl and David are so great to work for. But also what our core value is – which is patient care. I think we are a really great team at making sure our patients come first and their experience with us is a positive one each and every time.
Brisbane born and bred, Sarah’s passion for dentistry began during her orthodontic treatment in her teens. After graduating from highschool, Sarah began working as a dental nurse and decided her true calling was as a dental hygienist. She graduated from the University of Queensland in 2006 and has worked in both the private and public sector since then.
Sarah’s focus is on prevention and education. Her goal is to empower her patients so that they can achieve and maintain the best possible oral health for life.
In her free time Sarah can be found spending time with her two sons, hiking, attending a pilates class or exploring Brisbane and the surrounds looking for new restaurants to eat at or adventures to have.
I have been a proud part of the Today's Dentistry team for 20 years now.
My journey to get here though was anything but straight forward and I can probably thank my own childhood family dental visits in Newcastle NSW for my interest in this area of care. It too was a very special practice that took the time with their patients young and old and truly cared about them.
Having my own great experiences as a patient I was thrilled for them to accept me for my Year 10 work experience as a dental assistant and fell comfortably into the role. Due to life as it was back then and lack of public transport my career took me in a whole different direction and I had many years at the Aluminium Smelter in Kurri Kurri.
Once my children were at school I applied for a position as a receptionist at the local Dental Practice only to be told it was actually for an assistant and was I still interested? Silly question! Hands on training the old school way which put me in great position for further learning when our family moved to WA for a couple of years and then finally finding my way to QLD and Darrly and David.
Dentistry to me is a package of many very important parts, the precision and artistry of the actual treatment, the person behind the treatment and understanding of not only their dental needs but emotional drivers and the communication and care to put this all together. Although I now find myself not chairside but doing the behind the scenes administration I still get to talk with our patients and be confident that they are in good hands with my wonderful team.
