Her current position as Clinical Mentor in the Faculty of Dentistry's new 4-year Graduate Dental Program provides a platform for her to facilitate the integration of the clinical skills of the students as well as be at the forefront of developing the curriculum. She has also lectured at the University of Melbourne.

Yvonne coaches one-on-one and counsels as an NLP Master Practitioner to maximise human potential in corporate leadership, business, health, relationships and parenting skills. She has been a media spokesperson for the Australian Dental Association since 1999, and has appeared as the resident dentist on an Australian national lifestyle television show At Home.
