Manage episode 391935408 series 2624708
A glittering career as a bingo caller and entertainer looked like fate written in stone for Miranda Steeples—until someone dared to suggest she might be better suited to dental hygiene and therapy.
Miranda chats about the road from entertainment to therapy and the presidency of the British Society of Dental Hygienists and Therapists (BSDHT) via a near-miss as a Disney Princess.
She also sets out her wishlist for changes and reform to her profession and tackles the often complex relationship between dentists, hygienists and therapists.
