Our Oral Health Therapists

What is an Oral Health Therapist?

Oral Health Therapists (OHT) are dual qualified in dental therapy and dental hygiene. They provide a wide range of dental care including routine check ups, cleans and restorative treatments (fillings) to all ages. They have extensive knowledge in children’s dentistry. They are also trained to do some orthodontic work (braces) and cosmetic work (teeth whitening).
