Our Dental Team

Our nursing team plays a crucial role in our preventative strategy by offering oral hygiene instruction, advice and techniques. For many appointments, they are the first point of treatment for patients as they carry out preparations such as disclosing (applying a dye to the teeth to show plaque) before examination by the dentist. Where the patient is attending an emergency appointment, it is a member of our nursing team who will first speak to the patient about the nature of their problem.

Every member of our nursing team has a good understanding of the surgery as a whole, which is gained by rotating roles within the practice. Our staff undertakes a wide range of duties, including reception, ensuring patients are educated about oral health and providing chairside support to the dentist.

Ombersley Family Dental Practice is co-run by Lorna who looks after the administration and smooth running of the practice, both for patients and staff. OFDP is for families run by a family.
