She has undertaken whitening training in Enlighten and Phillips Zoom, and is able to provide both systems for her patients alongside oral health care.

Prevention is her watch word and Maryam strongly feels that the more we can work with patients to teach them how to help and protect themselves from developing serious oral diseases, the better.

The most rewarding aspect of her role is when patients return for another appointment, having heeded her advice, feeling the difference with their oral health, and smiling with more confidence.

Maryam loves to bake cakes, biscuits and all the good stuff, thereby proving that a treat is not out of the question if you clean your teeth properly afterwards.
