Alexandra Forbes

Full Adult Scope Oral Health Therapist

Alex Forbes is our dedicated oral health therapist with a focus on enhancing smiles - and promoting overall well being. After all, the mouth is the gateway to the rest of the body. She aims to support and enhance your oral health through compassionate care and expert advice.

Alex has a passion for preventative dentistry, which drives her to help patients maintain optimal oral hygiene and avoid more complex issues down the road. She believes that a proactive approach to dental care is key to ensuring long term health and vitality for your smile. Alex's approach combines the latest in dental technology with a warm, patient centred approach, ensuring that everyone who walks through the door feels valued and well cared for.

One of Aex’s favourite aspects of dentistry is teeth whitening — finding it incredibly rewarding seeing the transformation in patients' confidence and happiness when they achieve a brighter, more radiant smile - with such a minimally invasive approach. Alex also has extensive experience with Invisalign Aligners and works alongside our aesthetic dentists to provide seamless orthodontic care.

Outside the clinic, Alex enjoys long, leisurely lunches with friends. These gatherings are not only a joy but also a chance to unwind, share stories, and enjoy good food in great company. When she's not at work or enjoying a meal with friends, you can usually find her at the beach with her beloved cavoodle, Poppy - either running along the shoreline or soaking up the sun - those moments with Poppy are some of her happiest.

Alex has full adult scope registration as an Oral Health Therapist, with a degree from Central Queensland University, and is available on Mondays and Tuesdays by appointment from 7am.

About Preventive Dentistry.

At Brisbane Smile Boutique, your preventive dental appointment starts with a warm welcome and review of your dental and medical history by Alex. Alex carries out a comprehensive examination, often alongside Dr Leila Haywood or Dr Diane Nguyen including dental x‑rays, assessment of your gums and bone levels, checks for decay, cracks, or issues with existing restorations, plus an oral cancer screening.

A professional scale& clean follows—removing plaque, tartar (both above and below the gumline), polishing teeth, and addressing any surface stains. Throughout the appointment, Alex works with our experienced female dentists to discuss your home care routines, dietary habits, and risk factors like gum disease or cavities, then together they develop a tailored preventive plan for your smile.

Finally, they schedule follow ups and maintenance visits to ensure your smile stays healthy and problems are caught early.
