KIMBOLTON, UK: Oral health care products provider CURAPROX UK has announced its intended expansion of its presence on the British Isles with the appointment of Orla Sheehy as the new Senior Business Manager for Ireland. Sheehy will oversee sales and development of the company’s core business within the Irish market over the upcoming months and work closely with iTOP (individually trained oral prophylaxis) tutor Barbara Derham as part of CURAPROX’s efforts to increase its educational reach.

Originally from Carlow in southern Ireland, Sheehy has worked as a sales representative for GSK, among other positions.

Over the coming months, CURAPROX said it will be increasing its support to oral health care professionals across Ireland through regional meetings and by attending exhibitions.

“As a team, we pride ourselves on offering proven solutions that encourage best practice and correct technique and ensure an efficacious oral hygiene regimen—and that is why we are delighted to be expanding our service to the Irish market with a new team member,” remarked Managing Director of CURAPROX UK Richard Thomas on the move.

CURAPROX UK has been active in Ireland through distributors since 2014. Originally established in Switzerland in 1972, it has become a leading name in the market with oral health care products that the company recommends as safe, gentle and effective.
