Meet The Team


Caitlin Devlin

BDS (Hons), Pg Cert


Hello, I’m Caitlin and I am one of the principal dentists here at Bath Street Dental Practice.

I grew up in a rural part of Northern Ireland before leaving to study Dentistry at Cardiff University.

I completed my degree in 2013 and worked in general practice in South Wales before moving to Oxfordshire in October 2016 where I started work at Bath Street.

I became one of the principal dentists at Bath Street in December 2017 and since then I have relished the joys and challenges of being a practice owner.
I thoroughly enjoy welcoming and looking after generations of families that have always came to our practice, building rapports and ensuring delivery of quality family dentistry.

I have completed a post graduate certificate in Primary Dental Care through the University of Edinburgh and I am currently working towards a Diploma in Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry.

I am also undertaking the reputable Level 7 Certificate in Injectables for Aesthetic Medicine to enable me to offer the highest standard of care in anti-aging treatments for my patients.

I am passionate about ensuring that Bath Street Dental Practice continues to provide an exemplary standard of care to all our patients.

Nick Harrison

BDS (Hons)


My name is Nick Harrison, and I am one of the principal dentists here at Bath Street Dental Practice. I’m from Oxfordshire originally, but spent the last decade living and working in South Wales. During my time at Cardiff University I was fortunate enough to meet my wife to be, Caitlin Devlin. After graduation, I continued to live and work in South Wales, where I enjoyed treating patients and particularly improving the appearance of their smiles and self-confidence.

I was privileged to be able to continue my dental training at the Tipton Training Institute, one of the leading centres of postgraduate dental education in the country. During this time, I was able to enhance my knowledge and skills of a vast array of treatment modalities and was fortunate to have been taught by many of the leading dentists in the UK. Following the second year of training, I was honoured to be awarded the “Best Dentist” trophy. I am currently working towards a Diploma in Restorative Dentistry through the British Academy of Restorative Dentistry. Along with Caitlin, I am currently enrolled on a Level 7 Certificate in Injectables for Aesthetic Medicine, I believe that in order to truly enhance a smile, we need to consider not just the teeth but the face that frames it.

I joined the team at Bath Street as a practice principal in December 2017.

When I’m not at Bath Street, I’m a keen runner and have competed in races and competitions across the UK. I can often be found on Saturday mornings at the Abingdon Parkrun.

Rachel Turford

RDN, RDH, RDT


Hi, my name is Rachel. I am the Dental Hygiene Therapist here at Bath Street Dental Practice. I graduated with a BSc (Hons) at the University of Portsmouth Dental Academy, with five years of dental nursing experience prior to this.

I am heavily focused on prevention and helping patients keep their teeth for as long as possible. It is of utmost importance to me to create a comfortable and relaxed environment for my patients. I have a special interest in children and nervous patients and I am hoping to enhance my skills by undertaking sedation training in the near future.

I recently travelled to Cambodia as a dental volunteer with the charity Dentaid. I had the opportunity to provide much needed care to children in an orphanage with severe dental care needs. Aside from dentistry, I love to bake, exercise, go to the theatre and spend time with my friends and family.
