The Rebuilding Smiles Program 💙 Dr Paul McKay is proud to support the Rebuilding Smiles Program, an initiative by the @ADADentalHealthFoundation. This important program helps provide essential dental treatment for individuals whose lives have been impacted by domestic and family violence.

Reflecting on his involvement, Dr McKay shares: "It is a pleasure to care for my private patients each day, and being able to give back to the Rebuilding Smiles Patient Network with my time and expertise through the Program is super rewarding. We have been able to help those who need it most with general dental care that they are otherwise unable to access. Rebuilding a smile can mean giving someone a second chance with their teeth and that’s an impact I’m incredibly proud to help. I hope to continue giving back for many years to come.”

At Brisbane Smiles, we are honoured to stand behind initiatives that leave a lasting impact. Thank you, Dr McKay, for your contribution to making a real difference!
