About Oracare
A family practice, built to last.
Founded by Dr Thao Doan. Family, team and patients — the people who make Oracare what it is.

Meet the team
The people behind your care.
Founder & Principal Dentist
Dr Thao Doan
Dr Thao Doan founded Oracare with a simple belief — everyone deserves a healthy, confident smile in a space that feels welcoming, not clinical. With advanced training in cosmetic and restorative dentistry, Dr Thao combines precision with an artist's eye. Every treatment plan is personal, every outcome designed to last.
General Dentist
Dr Nikolas Suominen
Dr Nikolas Suominen joined Oracare in early 2026 to begin his clinical career under Dr Thao's mentorship. Focused, thoughtful and patient-first, Nikolas is building his practice from the ground up — starting with check-ups, cleans and preventive care, with an emphasis on getting to know each patient as a whole person rather than a chart.
What sets us apart
Three things you'll notice.
Extended hours
Open until 7pm Mon–Thu.
We open late so working families and professionals can attend appointments without taking time off. Friday and Saturday until 4pm.
Continuity of care
The same dentist, every visit.
Patients are assigned to a primary dentist and build a relationship over time. Dr Thao sees all new patients personally — so treatment planning starts with our most experienced clinician from day one.
Locally owned
A family-run clinic in the heart of Thornlands.
We're not a chain. We're family-built and family-run — and that ethos shapes how we treat our patients and our team.
Come and meet us.
New patients welcome. We'd love to show you what makes Oracare different.
