Meet Dr Tisa Kolarov (Dentist)
For Dr Tisa, dentistry has always felt like a natural fit. Growing up with a dentist father and a GP mother, healthcare was a constant part of family life. Her dad even worked from home for a time, and a young Tisa would help wash his instruments. Looking back, she says all the signs were pointing her towards dentistry from the very beginning.
Why Dentistry?
What attracted Dr Tisa to the profession was its unique combination of science, creativity, problem-solving, and working closely with people. She enjoys helping patients make informed decisions about their oral health and values the long-term relationships she builds with individuals and families over time.
One lesson that has stayed with her from dental school is the importance of clear, individualised communication. It shaped the way she practises today, with a focus on listening carefully, explaining options clearly, and never assuming that every person understands information in the same way.
A Calm, Whole-Person Approach
Dr Tisa is accredited with the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT), is an Invisalign provider, and is currently completing a Graduate Diploma in Implantology. She is also undertaking additional training with Myofunctional Research Co. in myofunctional therapy, airway health, and jaw development.
Patients often notice Dr Tisa’s calm, patient, and approachable manner. She takes the time to create a relaxed, non-judgmental environment where people can feel heard, comfortable, and respected. She has developed a particular interest in holistic and biological dentistry, viewing oral health as one part of a person’s overall wellbeing.
Life Beyond Dentistry
Outside the practice, family life keeps Dr Tisa busy. She enjoys spending time with her partner and two daughters, supporting her girls in their ballet and cheerleading activities, and making memories together.
Dr Tisa grew up riding horses and spent many years competing, a passion she hopes to return to one day. She also enjoys ballet, wellness, personal development, and healthy lifestyle choices. Her family also includes a much-loved German Shepherd, Honan, and a Bengal cat, Benji, who keep life interesting at home.
