What was your route into dental nursing Sylvia?

After completing my Master’s degree in Chemistry in Poland, I took a gap year while I decided what I wanted to do. 

I moved to London and had no idea what I would end up doing.

I was born in South Africa in Gauteng on the 18th of March 1966, to parents, Alan and Mavis. I am the third child of their family of four. I finished my high school education at Mowart Park Girls high School in Durban, Natal South Africa in 1985.

The scope of practice for a dental nurse clarifies the activity, operations and processes which a registered nurse is authorised and allowed to carry out. This term is used to report on what a dental nurse is trained to do. It explains the skills, abilities and training which is expected in the industry.
