About Me, Holly!

Hi!

I’m Holly, and I have been a registered dental hygienist in Ottawa, Canada, since 2014.

I believe changing someone’s smile can change their life! It happened to me!

I aim to make it easy for you to access accurate and clear dental information.

Keeping up with current evidence-based practices is essential in dental care.

We dental professionals have an obligation to you, the patient, to provide you with the most effective technology that will provide you with the best oral health outcomes.

Because a healthy mouth = a healthy body.

Keep smiling,

Holly Verran RDH :)
