About Janette Dinnage

I qualified in 2000 from Bristol and got my MFDS in 2005 from Edinburgh. I did my VT year in Nottingham and stayed on as an associate after. I then worked at Derby Royal Infirmary as a maxilla facial SHO and a clinical assistant at Leicester Royal Infirmary in oral surgery. I then worked and travelled to Australia working in oral surgery at Sydney Dental Hospital and then in Queensland Dental Clinic with flying doctor service to help serve aboriginal communities dental services. On my return to the UK I was based in Worthing and Chichester in general practice and community hospital doing a paediatric general anaesthetic list. I then moved to Cardiff in 2005 and began my current position as an associate at Malpas Dental Practice and from 2005-2008 I did part time post at Cardiff Dental School in the general anaesthetics for Paediatric Department. I currently work part time as an associate treating NHS and Private patients. I enjoy general dentistry and its variety. I enjoy restoring the general aesthetics of everyone's smile and find restoring people's confidence in both their smile and their experience at the dentist very rewarding. I've been working with Alex my nurse for 3 years now and we work well as a team and hope we make patients feel relaxed and confident. Outside work, my 2 young children keep me very busy and I enjoy seeing the world through their eyes. I enjoy the great outdoors hiking, snow boarding and hope once the children are a bit older, I can get back into rock climbing. In the meantime, I like to keep fit when time allows through Pilates and aerobics.
