Victorian mobile dental supplier Teeth On Wheels held a small ceremony recently to officially name their newest mobile dental clinic, Jasmine. The van marks a major milestone for the team as they celebrate 10 years of providing mobile dental care to Victorian children.

The event brought together school leaders, government representatives and our clinical team to highlight how mobile dentistry is helping remove barriers to dental care for kids across the state. Teeth On Wheels now reaches more than 25,000 Victorian children each year, partnering with 200 schools and 200 childcare centres. We’re fully accredited and operate with a model designed to make dental care simple for families and low-impact for schools.

The new clinic features a full-fitout operatory inside the mobile van, allowing us to deliver check-ups, preventive care, restorations and ongoing six-monthly reviews onsite.

Victorian Minister for Small Business Natalie Suleyman toured the new clinic and spoke about the importance of improving access to dental care for children. “Dental health is one of the most important parts of a child’s overall wellbeing,” she said. “Tooth decay remains a leading cause of hospitalisations for kids, and programs that meet children where they are – like mobile dental clinics – play a vital role in changing that.”

Teeth on Wheels has grown into one of the largest mobile dental services in the state, built around the idea of reshaping the way children experience the dentist so it feels positive, comfortable and fear-free.
