Diane Horan 

Nurse

I am a qualified Dental Nurse and Mum to 4 Children.

I started working with Jim way back in 1999. Over the years I have worked in and managed large multi-disciplinary practices both here in Ireland and in Australia.

I took a few years off when my children were small,4 children under 5 meant working out of the house really wasn’t an option.

About 4 years ago now Dr. Griffin contacted me to see would I be interested in coming back for a few hours and here we are now.

I love Orthodontics, There is huge job satisfaction seeing the journey children go on from little preteens with all those crowded teeth to almost adults with fab new smiles. 

Then there are the adult patients that come to see us. I know getting treatment has been a difficult decision. I’m delighted when they finally decide to get their treatment started because I know they won’t regret it. It makes my day when a family of children have all got their braces off and then Mum decides it’s her turn.

I have had braces as an adult, my Mum has had Invisalign and my children are in treatment with Jim so I think this really helps me relate to all our patients and parents of patients.
