Introduction

My first role in dentistry was when I was aged seventeen – I began working at an orthodontic practice in a Saturday job. I worked there for about seven years, working on reception and developing X-rays, but I never worked in the surgery. After that, I went on to work in childcare, but I continued the Saturday job because I enjoyed it so much.

I started my career in dentistry as a trainee dental nurse in 2013. I always knew I wanted to have a medical career but never knew which pathway to venture into.

Maintaining your wellbeing should be a top priority at all times, but it is often pushed to one side as other parts of life, such as work and family commitments, take charge.

In a world where cosmetic dentistry is becoming more popular, one of the easiest and least invasive ways to change a smile is tooth-whitening. 

There are different ways to whiten teeth, including both in-surgery procedures and at-home procedures. Both are able to achieve good results and provide patients with a whiter, brighter smile. This often gives patients a confidence boost.
