Rebecca started working at Clover as a Dentist in 2017 but her association goes way back to when she was 14 and came for work experience. She worked for several years as a Dental Nurse at Clover whilst still at school and then went to Newcastle to train and qualify. After several years, she returned to Lincolnshire and came home to the Clover family and now owns the practice.

Kristina joined the team in 2018 and, as a Hygienist, is an especially important part of delivering the Clover ethos of providing high quality comfortable care. She loves engaging with all her patients and making Hygienist visits a pleasant experience. Her aim is to help patients to improve their oral health both by attending her appointments and by implementing all the tools she recommends at home. Her aim is to help patients to avoid and stabilise the damage caused by gum disease and help them to achieve a healthy mouth with the aim of keeping their teeth for life. She understands and embodies the whole ethos of Clover where the priority is the whole person and their health not just teeth!

Coming from an Air Force family I grew up in overseas and Lincolnshire before being accepted to join the Royal Air Force on a flying scholarship at 16 however went on to study Dentistry at the University of Leeds. Following commissioning in to the Royal Air Force I worked across the UK, Europe and Asia practicing primary dental care and oral surgery whilst completing additional qualifications from the Faculty of General Dental Practice, Faculty of Dental Surgery and Royal Society of Medicine to which I am a current Fellow to both.

Having spent over 20 years working in the Armed Forces, I made the decision to work closer to home and spend more time with the family and sought to provide high quality evidence based dental care in a conducive environment, something that Clover offer to their patients. As a dentalcare professional, we take pride to explore the best options for our patients and ensure good understanding before we commence any treatment which is important for future maintenance and achieving a quality outcome.

Over my years in dentistry, I have gained experience in oral surgery, restorative dentistry, sedation, endodontics, and restoration of the grossly worn dentition which is where I gained my Master’s degree from Bristol University. I have spent many years teaching in dentistry as a trainer, coach and mentor as well as additional skills in healthcare leadership, governance and assurance, lifesaving, and forensics.

I am dedicated dentist committed to continuous through life education to ensure our methods and materials remain at the forefront of dentistry as well as continuing to provide a caring approach to clinical care.

Married with 3 young children, I spend my spare time providing entertainment and culinary services. When allowed to escape, I still undertake work within the military Reserves, enjoy the outdoors including skiing as a BASI level 2 instructor and assisting the local community parish.
