Ruth Page
Ruth joined us in 2004 and has since made her mark with both patients and staff due to her incredibly caring nature. Prior to her relocation to Devon, Ruth had been in practice in London and brought to us many years of experience. Her gentle and kind manner is commented on daily and brings a very personal touch to her dentistry.A commitment to clinical and professional development has led Ruth to regularly attend courses in London.
Ruth has introduced the hugely popular and effective Sleepwell (solution to snoring) to the vast list of treatments she already provides for her patients.
Ruth is also delighted to have completed training to offer the leading cosmetic dentistry procedure with Inman Aligner. This revolutionary treatment is changing the face of cosmetic dentistry as it can transform protruding teeth or a crooked crowded smile in just a few weeks.
