Theodora Little Speaker Bio

I have been working for 20 years in Dentistry, qualifying from Kings College London in 2013 as a Dental Therapist.

Since then, I have worked within many sectors, including NHS community and hospital.

Also worked and lived abroad, one phase of life in Switzerland where I was a co-developer of digital behaviour change tools and education for an international Swiss dental company. In the last 8 years I have lectured internationally in 18 countries.

I am studying Psychology and Neuroscience at Kings College, London.

I currently live with natives in a jungle, which is where I study and observe human behaviour and life from a very rural and primitive perspective, deepening my insight into human wellness and into supportive long-term change in oral diseases.
