I bring over 12 years of hands-on experience in the dental industry, with a particular interest in implant prosthetics and all types of dentures. After qualifying in Dental Technology from MMU, I’ve worked with both NHS and private clients, gaining valuable experience in producing a wide range of high-quality dental appliances. This has given me a deep understanding of the technical and aesthetic requirements needed to deliver excellent patient outcomes.

As a Dental Technician, I now lead the team at Smiles Better as Lab Manager and Head Technician. My role involves overseeing the lab’s operations, ensuring that each appliance is crafted with precision and attention to detail. I’m especially passionate about working on complex cases, including implant-supported dentures, where I can apply my technical knowledge to create solutions that improve patients’ quality of life. I collaborate closely with the clinical team to ensure that every patient receives a product tailored to their specific needs.

Over the years, I’ve developed a keen eye for detail and take pride in maintaining the highest standards in everything I do, whether it’s managing the lab workflow or delivering bespoke dental prosthetics. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and keeping up with the latest innovations in dental technology.

I started working here at Smiles Better in December 2022. I’ve always knew that I had an interest in dentistry. So when I saw this job opportunity, I knew it was time to make the jump from my previous experience in Dental Nursing to Dental Technology.

I have been loving being a part of the Smiles Better team ever since I had started.

I enjoy working in the dental laboratory and seeing the variety of different denture treatments available. Working in the laboratory with two dental technicians is really helping me with my continued learning.

I’m looking forward to continuing my journey in Dentistry and exploring the opportunities that I could go onto after qualifying as a Dental Technician.

Out of work, my favourite things to do are spending time with my family and doing fun activities.
