Bilke, Jessica
Germany, Herzogenrath
Schon während ihrer Ausbildung zur Zahnarzthelferin, die sie im Jahr 2000 erfolgreich abgeschlossen hat, entdeckte sie ihre Leidenschaft für die Prophylaxe. Nach ihrer Aufstiegsfortbildung zur Zahnmedizinischen Prophylaxeassistentin (ZMP) konnte sie über viele Jahre hinweg wertvolle Erfahrungen sammeln. Während ihrer Tätigkeit in einer auf Parodontologie spezialisierten Praxis wurde ihr bewusst, dass sie ihre Expertise auf diesem Gebiet weiter vertiefen und die höchste Ausbildungsstufe erreichen möchte. Dies führte 2018 zum erfolgreichen Abschluss ihrer Aufstiegsfortbildung zur Dentalhygienikerin (DH). Ihr stetiger Wille zur Weiterentwicklung und regelmäßige Fortbildungen führten sie schließlich zur Guided Biofilm Therapie (GBT). Dieses Konzept überzeugte sie so sehr, dass sie ihre Begeisterung und ihr Wissen weitergeben wollte. Seit 2024 ist sie Teil der Swiss Dental Academy. Für sie ist es essenziell, minimal-invasiv und maximal-präventiv zu arbeiten. Die Kombination aus ihrer Erfahrung in der Praxis und ihrer Tätigkeit als Trainerin ermöglicht ihr, ein Höchstmaß an Qualität zu erreichen und weiterzugeben.

Pérez Perrino, María
Spain, Valladolid

Mi nombre es María, soy de Salamanca, España, tengo 32 años y trabajo como higienista bucodental en la clínica del Dr. Javier Sola Alonso, en Valladolid. Siempre he estado interesada en el cuidado de la salud y después de graduarme en secundaria, decidí realizar una formación profesional de auxiliar de enfermería, lo que posteriormente me llevó a inscribirme en higiene bucodental.

Durante mis estudios, aprendí sobre la importancia de la higiene bucodental y cómo prevenir las enfermedades de la cavidad oral, como la caries y la enfermedad periodontal, también aprendí cómo educar a los pacientes sobre la importancia de una buena higiene oral y cómo mantener sus dientes y encías sanos.

Después de obtener mi título de higienista bucodental, me especialicé en técnicas de profilaxis y en la educación de los pacientes sobre cómo mantener una correcta higiene oral, también trabajé en estrecha colaboración con el dentista de la clínica, para diagnosticar y tratar enfermedades dentales en los pacientes, con el tiempo, me convertí en una higienista líder en mi trabajo y comencé a capacitar a otros higienistas sobre nuestras prácticas de cuidados y atención bucodental y sobre nuevas tecnologías, lo que me llevó a ejercer como GBT trainer para EMS.

Me enorgullece proporcionar una atención personalizada y de alta calidad a mis pacientes, me encanta que adquieran unos buenos hábitos, esto les ayuda a mejorar su salud bucodental y general.

En mi tiempo libre, me gusta asistir a conferencias y seminarios para estar al día sobre las últimas tendencias y tecnologías, también disfruto de la lectura, hago ejercicio y estudio sobre nutrición y dietética.
