Mount Vernon Dental Specialists

Sheila graduated at Queens University, Belfast in 1976. During her extensive experience in NHS and private dental practice in London she developed a keen interest in Periodontics (gum disease treatments), a branch of dentistry which had been rather neglected in the UK in comparison to the USA. In 1995 she obtained her Specialist qualification in Periodontics at the renowned Eastman Dental Institute in London and is accredited by the General Dental Council as a Specialist in Periodontics. Sheila established her private Periodontal practice in Northwood, Middx, carrying out both non-surgical and surgical periodontal therapies.  In February 2004, she moved the practice  to its new facilities at Mount Vernon Hospital. She is an active member of the British Society of Periodontology, being its Regional Representative for the Middx, Herts and Bucks region, and also regularly lectures in Periodontics in London and the Home Counties.Sheila is married to High Court Judge, Sir Nigel Sweeney.

Dr Yerbury graduated from Guy’s Dental Hospital, London, in 1984. He spent a number of years in further hospital training appointments in Restorative Dentistry and Oral Surgery, before gaining experience in general dental practice with particular interest in Prosthodontics. He embarked on the North American Specialist training in Prosthodontics, completing the three year programme at the University of Texas in 1992. He graduated with a Masters Degree in the same year, gained Specialist Registration in Prosthodontics in the UK and continues to be an active participant in study groups in UK, Europe and USA. 

Dr Yerbury provides fixed restorations for many situations, ranging from single teeth to complex full mouth rehabilitation, in close co-ordination with other Specialists and referring colleagues. He also has a particular interest in removable prostheses, with application of advanced functionally generated techniques. Where appropriate, implants are used to support both fixed and removable prostheses. Aesthetic evaluation and treatment is provided upon request in accordance with current, ethical Prosthodontic practice. Peter is always pleased to offer informal advice to referring colleagues, and can be contacted at Mount Vernon Dental Group.
