Shannon Dolan

Shannon Dolan graduated as a dental nurse from Marino College in 2017 and has been working in large multidisciplinary practices ever since. This has allowed her to gain extensive knowledge and experience in all areas of dentistry.

Shannon became interested in the dental field after overcoming her extreme dental anxiety as a child by meeting a lovely nurse who changed her whole perception of dentistry. This experience drove her passion to become a dental nurse and make these same changes to others out there who have a fear of dentists.

With over 7 years’ experience she worked in her previous clinic for over 5 years, with swift promotion to Head Nurse managing a team of 25+ nurses, until she decided to take the plunge and expand her horizons even more in a new clinic.

This year she completed the Dental Radiography course in Trinity College Dublin.

She also completed a Phlebotomy and Cannulation course in 2022 to allow her to be more hands-on while assisting the surgeons with IV Sedation. She attends Infection Prevention and Control courses to stay on top of current policies and procedures and to ensure patients are receiving the highest standard of care every day.

Shannon has keen interest in implants and oral surgery and everything bloody.

When she is at work, she loves to make sure it’s positive vibes all round!
