Our Story

At Tools for Teeth, we believe every parent deserves access to trusted, evidence-based guidance to better care for their children's oral health.

​

The idea for Tools for Teeth began during the COVID-19 pandemic, when Dr Bill Madytianos was searching for a resource to help his sister manage her daughter's painful teething experience. He was surprised to find there were no comprehensive resources available designed specifically for parents and carers. And so, he set out to create his own. 

​

Today, Tools for Teeth is an educational platform dedicated to empowering parents and carers with accurate, practical information about children's oral health. From teething and toothbrushing to preventing common dental problems, our goal is to help families make informed decisions, reduce the risk of oral health issues, and build healthy habits that last a lifetime.

​

Our approach combines the latest academic research with real-world clinical experience. Rather than relying on fear-based messaging or promoting unnecessary products, we focus on translating evidence-based dentistry into clear, accessible advice that families can trust.

​

Founded by Dr Bill Madytianos, Tools for Teeth is backed by extensive clinical, academic, and public health expertise. Dr Bill completed his Doctor of Dental Surgery before undertaking a Graduate Certificate in Dental Public Health in 2024. He is a Clinical Lecturer and Research Academic at the Melbourne Dental School, University of Melbourne, while also practising as a general dentist in metropolitan Melbourne.​
