Fran's Role
Neville and I began in business in 1979 with a dental laboratory.
We commenced our first Denture Clinic in Aldgate in the Adelaide Hills in 1984 after Neville had graduated as a dental prosthetist. In 1994 we commenced a branch in Tanunda, in the Barossa Valley, and in 1999 we commenced offering a service in Murray Bridge, based at the hospital. We relocated our main practice to Mt. Barker in 2002.
Since 1994 my involvement in this field has also extended to being secretary of the SA branch of our professional association, the Australian Dental Prosthetists Association.
I really enjoy managing our business. We meet many interesting people and it is very satisfying to feel you have helped to improve the function of their teeth and enhance their appearance.
CONFIDENCE
A Smile Increases Your Face Value
Proverbs says: "A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance".
What is the first thing you see when you are introduced to someone for the first time? You look at their face!
That is why it so important to have a confident smile. |
