Welcome, Holly!

We’re excited to welcome Holly, our new Assistant Manager!

Holly began her career in dentistry in 2016 and qualified in 2019. Since then, she has gained a wealth of experience across various areas of dental nursing, including General Dentistry, Cosmetic Dentistry, Implant Surgery, and Specialist Extractions.

Throughout her career, Holly has taken on progressive leadership roles such as Clinical Lead and Head Nurse. Most recently, she served as an Assistant Manager and now brings her extensive experience and fresh perspective to our practice as our “new pair of eyes.”

Outside of work, Holly enjoys spending time outdoors and making memories with her friends and family.

Holly will be with us every Monday through Thursday and is looking forward to meeting all our patients—ensuring that everyone receives the highest standard of care and leaves with a smile.


Welcome, Ria!

We’re delighted to welcome our new Dental Hygienist, Ria, to the team!

Ria began her career in dentistry in 2013 as a general dental nurse. In 2015, she joined the Maxillofacial Department at The Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, where she worked as a specialist nurse and oral health lead. During this time, she supported patients recovering from cancer treatment, jaw surgery, and orthodontic procedures, gaining extensive experience in complex oral health care.

Driven by her passion for patient care, Ria later re-trained as a Dental Hygienist at the University of Essex, graduating with First-Class Honours. Her academic excellence was further recognised by her inclusion on the Dean’s List of Excellence for both her first and second degree.

Outside of work, Ria leads an active lifestyle. She enjoys kayaking, working out at the gym, travelling, and hiking.

Ria brings a wealth of clinical knowledge and a compassionate approach to patient care. She will be working with us every Tuesday and Wednesday, and we’re thrilled to have her as part of the team.
