Ms Danette Ryan is a female Dental Therapist.
Danette Ryan is a Dental Therapist specialising in treating children. She has over 20 year’s experience, providing child friendly, age-appropriate dental treatment for children which gives them lifelong health and confidence. Danette knows how vital a child’s oral health is to their overall health and endeavours to assist families with oral hygiene routines, prevention, and minimally invasive, bio-holistic treatments where necessary.
Ideally dental visits are regular, starting by two years of age so that children become comfortable and confident in the dental environment before any treatment may be necessary. She aims to make these visits fun and useful to the child and parent focusing on prevention. Danette will also assess children’s facial growth and jaw development, oral habits, posture and breathing all contributing to children’s health and ability to reach their full potential.
Danette has worked over many years with children who have fear, phobias and special needs using gentle encouragement, working with children at the level they are comfortable with. Danette has volunteered in Vietnam, providing dental treatment to children in the Long Tan area and is keen to pursue more volunteering opportunities.
Danette is passionate about the environment and is excited to be providing dental treatment to children in Byron Bay and Lennox Heads in a eco-friendly way, reducing impact on our planet while promoting prevention, to enhance children health and well-being.
