As a vastly experienced Dental Implant Nurse, Stella has been with The Implant Centre nursing team since 2016. Beginning her Digital Intraoral Scanning career using the latest TRIOS unit, and part of the team that set the clinic up at The Implant Centre in 2019. Through this experience Stella has earned the title Implant Nurse Practitioner.

Stella’s role involves intra-oral digital scanning for all crowns, bridges & dentures, checking the integration of implants, taking normal impressions when clinically required, triaging emergency patients and the removal of sutures. She really enjoys creating digital impressions, as they are much more comfortable for our patients and more accurate than conventional impressions. This technology is at the forefront of dentistry. Stella is proud to have been so involved with the development of this clinic.

The aspect of this role Stella most enjoys is reassuring patients and helping them feel calm throughout the process. She loves the 3d impression machine too… “no mess, no down time, and excellent for the patients comfort”.

In her own time Stella enjoys spending time with her family and long walks on the Brighton seafront.
