Dr Lin was named South Australia's 2022 Young Australian of the Year for her work in special needs dentistry.

She was initially stunned when contacted by the Prime Minister鈥檚 Office.

鈥淚 was in disbelief to begin with, followed by this incredible feeling of being very honoured and humbled when it started to process," Dr Lin said.

鈥淚 am still in that processing phase at the moment.

鈥淚 hope the focus is not so much on me as an individual, but me as a representative of all the other specialists and special needs dentistry in Australia, who work for the same cause and have their hearts wanting to create more equitable access to inclusion for the most vulnerable people in our community.鈥�
