Dental uniforms: How to choose the right one for every role

Dental uniforms: How to choose the right one for every role

Today’s consumer is more conscious of hygiene standards than ever before – and nowhere is hygiene more important than in the dental practice. For potential clients, it’s imperative that your commitment to total hygiene is apparent from the very minute they come in the door.

At the same time, you want to appear professional and business-like in order to attract new clients. To get the level right, it’s important to carefully consider your uniform for every member of staff, from the practice receptionist to the head dentist.

At Buttercups, we offer a wide range of uniforms to suit every staff member in a dental practice. Our uniforms are durable, easy to care for, stylish, comfortable, and a pleasure to wear. Below, we have selected some of our top styles to suit each role in the dental surgery.

Dentist/Hygienist

Dentists and hygienists are key healthcare workers and must therefore place hygiene above everything else when choosing a workwear uniform. Scrubs are the obvious choice – but the good news is that scrubs have now evolved into a whole category of their own, with a wide range of colours, styles and fabrics. At Buttercups, we stock four ranges from global brand Cherokee: Core Stretch, Infinity, Originals and Revolution. All are robust, stylish and incredibly comfortable. Each style can be washed at high temperatures, so hygiene is assured. You can even go a step further with the Cherokee Infinity range, which incorporates Certainty antimicrobial technology to protect against bacteria, viruses or disease organisms.

Dental nurse

In practices where cosmetic dental procedures are routinely performed – and in fact, many surgeries now offer other aesthetic procedures such as fillers – a dental nurse can play a pivotal role in a surgery. The Cherokee Core Stretch range of scrubs is ideal for dental nurses, as they are as practical as scrubs, but have the fit and style of a traditional nursing tunic. A wide variety of colours and fits caters to every taste and preference too. We also stock a range of waterproof aprons and wrap-around tunics, ideal for protecting your uniform when performing potentially messy procedures.

Choosing the right uniform for your dental practice

Dental receptionist/front of house

Those working front of house in a busy surgery should still focus on professional hygiene at all times – but a way of differentiating these staff members from the healthcare staff is with colour or style. Our range of aesthetic beauty tunics are ideal for these professionals as they are smart, durable, easy to care for, and hygienic. We carry a wide range of styles in different colours and fabrics, all of which are carefully designed with the needs of busy therapists and customer-facing staff in mind. Our Chic Triangle-Detail Breathable Tunic is a fashion-forward yet professional uniform that is ideal for a front-of-house role. Crafted in our innovative 2Life ECO fully sustainable breathable fabric and featuring stunning wide sleeves, this is a great choice for those who need to stay cool, calm and collected.
