Jill qualified as a Hygienist in the Royal Air Force in 2000. Over the years Jill has attended several ‘Masterclasses’ to ensure she provides the most up-to-date treatment for her patients including treating advanced gum disease and tooth whitening. She recognises the anxiety that some people feel in the dental setting and has had enormous success helping even the most nervous dental patients overcome their negative feelings toward dental visits
Jill is one of our hygienists at Larkham House Dental Practice.
She feels the most important part of her role is teaching her patients how to care for their mouths. She guides them on the best homecare regime to help them help themselves. Her mantra is ‘Gum disease is fought in the bathroom – not in the surgery’. Jill gains job satisfaction from providing patients with skills and knowledge that will enable them to maintain their teeth and gums for life.
