Yukarina Shirley

In addition to attending further education courses in the UK, Yukari travels to New York every couple of years to keep herself up-to-date. Dental Clinique has benefited from her input.

“My primary aim is to provide patient satisfaction and to deliver my care in the most thorough yet gentle way possible. I love feedback so please don't be shy! The most rewarding moment for me is when I have treated a patient with deep periodontal "pockets" and on their next appointment I am able to document their complete repair. I am so proud of my patients for following the treatment with diligent aftercare including flossing along with dietary and lifestyle adjustments.”
Yukari

Our Dental Hygienists are approachable, extremely bubbly and enthusiastic. They develop excellent relationships with their patients. We feel confident that with our dental hygienists you will feel quickly at ease.
