Lise Slack is an International speaker, clinical dental hygienist, published author, inventor/developer/patentee of two oral care products and director of the charity i-Hope. The love of teeth comes from her dentist dad in South Africa which is also Lise’s country of birth and education. Lise spent five years in the UK working for SmithKlein Beecham promoting/distributing Amoxil antibiotics for prevention of dental bacterial endocarditis. At the same time Lise was in the project designing/marketing the brand/logos for Corsodyl Chlorhexidine Gluconate 2mg/ml antimicrobial mouthwash. Eleven years ago Lise, her husband and two young daughters immigrated to Australia where she continues the battle against periodontitis and peri-implantitis. Lise has written several articles on the long term maintenance of the periodontal health and dental implants. After three decades of data collecting from her patients she invented the unique X-Floss and XRibbon now available in several countries. Lise’s innovative character and passion for the work as dental hygienist has opened doors to see Lise speak/teach at international dental/hygiene conferences on implant/perio maintenance.
