I qualified in 1999 from Glasgow Dental Hospital after a 2 year course to obtain my diploma in dental hygiene.  I went to work in London after qualifying and spent 18 months working in a practice in Harley Street and a practice in Covent Garden.  I really enjoyed my experiences in London but decided to move to Edinburgh in 2001 where I worked as a tutor for the student dental hygienists.  During this time I gained my adult teaching certificate, I also worked in 2 other private practices when not at the institute.  One in Morningside drive and the other, Thirlestane Road.  I spent almost 4 years at the institute and had decided to spend my time working in the 2 dental practices.  I continued in the 2 practices until last year when I left Morningside when I went on maternity leave.  After having my little girl in June 2009 I had 9 months off and spent lots of time with my daughter.

I returned to work in April and now work at Thirlestane exclusively 2 ½ days a week which I thoroughly enjoy.
