Fiona Ord, who initially studied dental nursing at the Royal Dental Hospital of Melbourne and then Oral Health Therapy (Hygiene) at the University of Melbourne, presented an entry that the judging panel felt exhibited considerable scientific rigour.
The case study incorporated the use of BioMin F toothpaste designed to help reduce the tooth sensitivity.
'Fiona developed a very logical treatment plan which coupled with appropriate and detailed oral hygiene instructions resulted in an excellent clinical outcome,' said Marina Harris, the BSDHT nominee on the judging panel. 'Fiona’s delivery of the treatment plan has clearly enhanced the patient's quality of life.'
Fiona, who is currently working at the Clyde Munro practice in Edinburgh, is also a clinical research dental hygienist at the University of Dundee.
