Niki Afrina Bte Mohd Nazri

Ive had the privilege of working as a dental nurse, where Ive not only assisted in countless procedures but also made a real difference in patients experiences. One of the things Im most proud of is my ability to help nervous patients feel at ease as I know a trip to the dentist can be daunting, so I always try to bring a reassuring presence to the room.

Ive become skilled at anticipating the dentists needs during treatments, which keeps everything running smoothly and efficiently. Whether its preparing instruments, taking X-rays, handling impressions, or even pouring and casting models, I ensure everything is done to the highest standard to provide the best care possible.

Beyond the technical side, Ive also taken on training new dental nurses, passing on my knowledge and helping them grow in confidence. Its been rewarding to see them develop their skills and know that Ive played a part in their journey.

I also love educating patients about oral health, giving them simple, practical advice they can take home to improve their dental care. Seeing patients return with healthier smiles makes all the hard work worthwhile.

Every day brings new challenges, but I thrive in the fast-paced environment of a dental practice. Whether its handling emergencies, ensuring strict infection control, or simply offering a kind word to a patient, I take pride in knowing that what I do truly matters.
