In late 2018, I was offered the opportunity to train as an Orthodontic Therapist, and after a successful interview at UCLAN School of Medicine & Dentistry, I began my course in the Summer of 2019.
The best part of working in orthodontics is seeing patients end results and how it changes them into confident people.
