Dental hygienists and therapists are trained specialists collaborating within dental teams across various settings, including public health, hospitals, and both private and NHS dental clinics. Their crucial work focuses on preventing oral health issues like gum disease, cavities, and oral cancers. These professionals deliver preventive care, periodontal treatments, and restorative procedures for patients of all ages, combining hands-on treatment with patient education. The Dental School's advanced clinical labs feature cutting-edge equipment and teaching tools, equipping students to meet General Dental Council registration requirements.
