I graduated from Bristol Dental School in 2012 winning prizes in Oral Surgery (for exceptional clinical ability in dental extractions and related procedures) and communication skills. I focus on providing dental implant treatments, including, advanced bone grafting, gum grafting and cosmetic cases. I also provide oral surgery procedures including surgical extractions and biopsies.
I am passionate about digital dentistry and enjoy using new technologies and gadgets to improve my treatments and the experience of our patients. This has led to me adopting a computer guided implant surgery approach. This utilises our intra-oral scanner and 3D x-rays (CBCT scans) to pre-plan the desired implant position. A 3D-printed surgical guide is used during the implant placement to ensure the implant is positioned correctly.
My passion and expertise for surgical dentistry has led to being appointed as a Clinical Lecturer in Oral Surgery at Bristol Dental School. This involves teaching the next generation of dentists how to extract teeth via delivering lectures and direct supervision of students treating patients.
Academically, I believe in lifelong learning and am constantly undertaking new training to be able to provide the most up to date techniques and treatments. In 2017 I successfully achieved membership to the Royal College of Surgeons, Edinburgh. In 2020, I completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Dental Implantology at the University of Bristol, achieving a distinction. I am a member of the International Team for Implantology.
Outside of dentistry, I live in Bristol and love spending time with my wife and 2 young children. I enjoy seeing the world and playing football and squash.
