MAYA RANGELOVA

Diphe dental hygienE and therapy – GDC NO. 280385

I have been in dentistry for 7 years having worked as a dental nurse before graduating as a dental hygienist/therapist from the University of Sheffield. Dentistry and prevention have always been my passions and becoming a dental hygienist and therapist was a natural progression for me. I love interacting with patients of all ages and sharing my knowledge. I am dedicated to improving the oral health of all my patients, particularly those anxious about dental visits.

Outside of work, I like spending time with my family, enjoying long walks with my 10-year-old spaniel Arnie, and baking.

I am excited to be returning to Rutland Dental Care where I am familiar with patients and staff and looking forward to treating you all!
