Perla Marisol

As a dedicated dental hygienist with over six years of experience in the dental field as an overseas-qualified dentist, I am committed to delivering high-quality oral healthcare for all patients and those with periodontal care. Currently awaiting application for registration as a dentist in the UK, I continue to apply my clinical expertise and attention to detail in my role as a GDC-registered dental hygienist. I thrive in team-based environments, support patient-centred care, and am passionate about ongoing learning and professional development. Outside the clinic, I enjoy exploring Mexican cuisine with family and friends, as well as engaging in creative pursuits such as piano playing and oil painting
