About Me

GDC Number:
258784

 

I like to treat my patients through patient-centred minimally invasive dentistry, which aims to be of the highest standard and also long lasting.

I grew up in Norfolk and then after reading Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough University, joined the Royal Air Force where I flew Harrier and Tornado fast jet aircraft before becoming a flying instructor.

After completing my commission in the RAF, I studied Dentistry at Leeds Dental Institute in the University of Leeds, which has a great focus on holistic patient care and also children’s dentistry.

Over the years I have gained experience, working in South Wales and various practices in Lincolnshire. I continue to increase my knowledge of dentistry with various postgraduate qualifications and courses, covering all skill-sets but focusing on minimally aesthetic and cosmetic dentistry as that is my greatest interest. As part of that I have become a very active Invisalign provider and advocate.

I have invested in my own equipment including an iTero 5D intraoral  digital scanner.  I also provide Bioclear veneers and crowns.
