Claudia qualified as a Dental Hygienist in 2024 from University College Cork and has been working with Dental Care Ireland in our Rathfarnham practice for over the past year.

Her journey in the world of dentistry began in 2020 when she graduated from the Technological University of the Shannon with a Higher Certificate in Dental Nursing. During her time as a dental nurses she realised she would like to be more involved in the treatment and care of the patients. This led her to apply for the Diploma in Dental Hygiene course in 2022.

Claudia enjoys educating her patients on oral care and passing on her knowledge to help patients with their dental hygiene while in the dental chair and also from home.

Her particular interest is in periodontal patients and younger patients who may have orthodontics or are just becoming independent with their hygiene. She believes that educating patients properly from a young age can drastically decrease oral hygiene issue in the future.
