Hygiene and therapy
Louise began her dental career as a dental nurse before qualifying as a dental hygienist in 2003. Her love for her job is increased by the great rapport she builds with her patients, she particularly enjoys spending time creating treatment plans and care advice that is tailored to each individual. Work aside she enjoys rugby and a wide variety of music including playing the piano, although most of her time is taken up by her energetic young daughter.
I studied at the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) graduating as a Dental Therapist. I believe patient education and preventive care are both important to optimise a patients oral health and therefore, their general health. I enjoy building a rapport with patients, encouraging them to feel at ease and reducing their dental anxiety. I particularly enjoy restorative treatments as this can alleviate pain, improve function, aesthetics and improve a patients self-esteem. In my spare time I like to watch documentaries and catch-up with friends. I also enjoy walking and will often take my Auntie's dog along with me.
