About
Cat Edney
The Modern Therapist
Multi award winning Dental Therapist Cat Edney has over twenty years experience working in specialist and private practice. In this time she has developed a passion for multidisciplinary team working in the Dental Setting - with a focus on maximising the use of the full dental team to ensure profitability alongside patient care and engagement.
Cat lectures nationally as a clinical educator and speaker and has developed hands on dental courses under her training brand ‘The Modern Therapist’ which aims to educate the dental profession about the role and integration of Dental Therapy, alongside focusing on providing gold standard hands on training and ongoing support to dental teams.
There are over 7000 Dental Therapists registered in the UK and Cat believes they are under-utilised in general dental practice. My goals focus on two routes: to get Dental Therapists confident in their ability to provide Dental Therapy to their full scope, and to help Dental Practices to understand the benefit that Dental Therapy brings to their business.

Cat opened my eyes to how working with a therapist can be invaluable to my daily practice. It allowed me to focus on treating the more complex aspects of cases whilst increasing revenue.

I always knew when I wanted to setup my own practice, dental therapists would play a huge role in the patient experience. However, like most, my understanding and appreciation for the role was limited. I knew I needed education, but I was fully committed to adopting, and championing the skill mix of the dental team.
I wanted to move away from the status quo in Dentistry - a top down, dentist heavy approach to dental care. My research has a common thread. Cat Edney. I knew I needed to speak with her. I’d listened to podcast episodes of hers and followed her on Instagram.
I made contact and from the get go - Cat was warm and very approachable. We arranged a Zoom call and discussed my vision for Cure Clinics. She was fully supportive - and even better, provided an incredible insight into the future of dentistry - dental therapists.
Years on, I'm still contacting Cat for advice. My practice is thriving, and it's all down to our dental therapy team, who are at the centre of everything we do well. I wouldn't have it any other way.
