Key Responsibilities as a Dental Therapist

  • Brand Ambassador: Be the face of Impress, delivering a world-class, seamless experience for every customer/patient while providing top-tier clinical care.
  • Clinical Excellence & Restorative Care: Perform dental therapy procedures strictly within the GDC scope of practice, including:
    • Full restorative duties (direct restorations on primary and secondary teeth, pulpotomies, and pre-formed crowns on primary teeth).
    • Routine therapeutic procedures (extracting primary teeth, placing rubber dams, temporary dressings, and re-cementing crowns with temporary cement).
    • Comprehensive periodontal treatment (supragingival/subgingival scaling, root surface debridement, and care of implants/peri-implant tissues).
    • Administration of Local Anaesthetic (infiltration and inferior dental block analgesia).
  • Advanced Diagnostics & Assessment: Obtain and evaluate detailed medical and dental histories, conduct thorough clinical examinations, perform oral cancer screenings, and identify anatomical abnormalities or common pathologies.
  • Advanced Diagnostics & Tech: Take, process, and interpret various radiographic film views (prescribing radiographs as required). Capture high-quality intra/extra-oral photographs and take accurate impressions.
  • Patient Journey & Treatment Planning: Diagnose, formulate, and plan the delivery of care within your competence. When working on prescription, dynamically vary the details (such as restoration materials or surfaces) to suit individual patient needs.
  • Education & Prevention: Provide preventive oral care, apply topical treatments/fissure sealants, and utilize anti-microbial therapies. Educate and advise patients on smoking cessation, caries, periodontal disease, and tooth wear.
  • Compliance & Governance: Keep full, accurate, and contemporaneous patient records, ensuring strict compliance with clinical governance, CQC standards, and data protection regulations.
  • Team Collaboration: Collaborate effectively with the wider dental team (Dentists, Orthodontists, Dental Nurses, etc.), liaising closely on complex treatments and referring patients to other healthcare professionals when necessary.
  • Drive & Mindset: Self-motivation and a hunger for success. Never accept results lower than “Impressive”. Lead by example and never stop improving.
