Meet Our Hygienists

Zara joined us as a hygienist in 2018, having worked with us as a dental nurse and receptionist since 2011. After graduating with diplomas in dental hygiene and dental therapy from King’s College Hospital in 2017, Zara went on to further her academic studies at The University of Central Lancashire. She was successful in gaining a place with The Thames Valley and Wessex Deanery for a year-long dental therapy foundation placement, during which time she worked in a busy practice in Oxford.

Zara has worked in dentistry since 2005 and holds certificates in oral health education, dental radiography and dental sedation nursing. She aims to treat her patients in an empathetic and relaxed environment, taking time to address individual concerns and provide a positive experience. In her spare time, Zara enjoys reading, traveling, socialising and going to the gym.
