About the Whole Bite Club
We are a health team, not a sales team. We come to your school to teach.
Who runs it
The Whole Bite Club is run by Oral Health Home, a Queensland social enterprise. Every session is delivered by Ahpra-registered oral health therapists — qualified clinicians.
The clinicians
Dr Carol Tran
BOH, PhD, regd. OHT
Senior oral health academic and researcher. Former president of the profession’s peak body.
Leigh Harrison-Barry
BHSc, BBus, regd. OHT
Consultant OHT with 40+ years of former leadership and clinical experience in Queensland Health’s school dental services.
Working alongside Queensland Health
The Whole Bite Club complements Queensland Health school programs. Our educational session and check-up add to existing services so children benefit from a coordinated approach to oral health and wellbeing.
Why we do it

Australian kids start school with tooth decay
Source to confirmTooth decay is the most common long-term illness in Australian children. It is also one we can stop. In the schools the club visits, about 40 to 45 per cent of children have already had tooth decay. In some it is closer to half. We start early, at school, where every child is.
