The team

Teresa Ford

Teresa Ford
Hi, my name is Teresa Ford. I have been a dental nurse for far too long; since the age of 16. I qualified in May 1996 and furthered myself with Radiography in September 1997 and Implantology in September 2005. I have been at Abbey Mead since October 1999.

My family and 2 children take up all my social time.

My favourite chocolates are Thornton's for Christmas and my birthday (6th Nov) but I don't eat them between meals of course!!!!!nt>

Liz Bowhay

Liz Bowhay
I gained my reception qualifications at Plymouth College of Further Education. After gaining 10 years experience in dental and medical fields I joined the practice team in November 2002. Since then I have furthered my career with training in various aspects of reception, practice management and customer care. I take great pride in my work.

For relaxation my husband and I enjoy travel and playing skittles.

Corrina Daymond

Corrina Daymond
Hello, my name is Corrina. I am married and have two young children. I have worked at Abbey Mead since 2004 and currently work two days a week. I recently sat my Dental Nurse Examination in Truro and passed and would now like to further my dental education possibly becoming an Oral Health Educator. My spare time is enjoyed helping my children discover and explore the world.

Christine Hartley

Christine Hartley
I am known as Christine. After leaving school I worked in a dental practice whilst waiting to pursue a career in the Royal Navy as a Stores Accountant. I served on numerous ships and shore bases before leaving to have my three children. I then resumed work in dentistry and now find my experience has spanned 16 years. I am currently a registered dental nurse attending Plymouth University to be awarded the modern dental nurse qualification. I have worked in numerous NHS and private practices. I started at Abbey Mead in August 2006.

I like to keep trim and am a keen runner. This helps in my job as a Police Special Constable based in Plymouth. I hope one day to represent Devon and Cornwall Constabulary with my running abilities.

In my spare time I love to take my family to our caravan by the coast and whenever possible experience different cultures of the world.

Emma Saunders

Emma Saunders EDH
Emma started her dental career at University Dental Hospital London where in 1983 she qualified as a Dental Surgery Assistant. After working as a member of hospital staff for several years she trained and qualified as a Dental Hygienist in 1988.

Since then she has worked in both NHS and private practice. For 15 years she worked for renowned Periodontologist and Implantologist Dr Alan Sidi in the West End of London.

In 2003 Emma and her husband, equine dentist Bill Lomas, moved to Devon. Abbey Mead was lucky to have Emma join the team at this time.

Emma's hobbies include a love of horses, animals and the countryside. She also enjoys walking and reading.

(Our customers regularly say that Emma is the most gentle and motivating hygienist they have come across!)

Maxine Kane

Maxine Kane
I have worked in the Dental industry for 30yrs since qualifying as a Dental Therapist in London in 1979 and as a Dental Hygienist in Birmingham in 1982. My first position was in the Kent Community Dental Service and since then I have gained experience working abroad, in the NHS and now in private practice with Paddy and Ann as well as being involved in different areas of education within the new Peninsula Dental School, Plymouth.

I am married with two beautiful teenage daughters, who keep me busy with their swimming competitions in the West Country and other social commitments.

My spare time is generally spent swimming, at the movies or outdoors enjoying historical sites or the British countryside.
