Ms Teresa Cunningham

Teresa Cunningham is Dental Hygienist and Therapist at The Dentist Salisbury. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene and Dental Therapy from the University of Birmingham in 2020.

One of Teresa's driving passions in her profession is patient education. She firmly believes that the key to preventing gum disease and maintaining optimal oral health starts with the right knowledge and habits at home. Understanding the crucial role that patients play in their own oral care, she takes the time to educate them on simple and effective steps they can incorporate into their daily routine. By empowering her patients with this knowledge, she helps them take ownership of their oral health, promoting healthier habits and long-term results.

Teresa's dedication to patient empowerment extends beyond the dental chair. She actively advocates for her patients, guiding and motivating them towards better oral health outcomes. Her warm and friendly approach fosters a comfortable and trusting atmosphere, allowing patients to feel at ease during their visits. Teresa recognises that dental anxiety is a common issue for many individuals, and she uses her gentle and caring manner to help her patients work through their nerves and overcome their fears. This personalised approach ensures that each patient receives the care they need while feeling supported and understood.
