Keeping fit and healthy generally is of prime importance nowadays, but sometimes our mouths are overlooked. A healthy mouth feels and looks good, and is the essential foundation for any successful dental treatment.
Our dental therapist and hygienist, Siobàin White helps our patients keep their mouths really healthy. She has 4 main responsibilities in the practice:

• Making sure her patients know all the best methods of brushing and flossing to remove the bacterial plaque which is the cause of gum and decay problems - and teaching new methods when necessary
  
• Carefully and gently removing the tartar (calculus) and any staining from the teeth
  
• Carrying our restorative treatment such as fillings in natural colour composite material.
  
• She works very closely with our paedodontist and carries of restorative treatment for children

Siobàin is always gentle and understanding. For any treatment which might otherwise be uncomfortable she uses local anaesthesia to ensure that the treatment is painless.
