Aisling graduated from The Queen’s University of Belfast in 1993 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery and distinction in the practice of dentistry.In 1998 she gained the MFGDP (Diploma of Membership of the Faculty of General Dental Practice) from the Royal College of Surgeons, UK.In 2006 she was accepted to study for the post-graduate Diploma in Endodontic Practice at the Queen Mary University of London School of Dentistry and graduated in 2008 with distinction. She believes that this course changed her understanding of endodontics and provided essential experience of providing endodontic treatment using the dental operating microscope. She now routinely performs all endodontic treatment using the ‘Global’ dental operating microscope.
