In 2000 I graduated from the University of Sydney with Honours. I have worked extensively in Country, General Family, Cosmetic Dentistry and Dental Implants practices, in both Australia and the United Kingdom.
I have strong beliefs in offering patients options with supporting information on the positives and negatives of these options. This enables you, as the patient, to make an educated decision and to decide the treatment that best suits your particular circumstance.
I started my career in North Richmond, on the outskirts of Sydney. Here, I developed the skills to organise and plan treatments across the many dental mediums involved in large reconstructive cases. I also worked closely with the principal dentist and maxillofacial surgeon, to improve and enhance my oral surgery skills.
My next location was on the lower north shore, at Wahroonga. During this time I concentrated on high quality restorative and preventative treatment, with an emphasis on offering treatment options for long term success. Here, I started to research Snoring and Sleep Apnoea issues, and Fluoride supplementation guidelines for prevention. I also started to research new, more aesthetic materials which still offer the same long term success as the older style materials. For example, using ceramic crowns instead of the older metal fused to ceramic crowns, and ceramic restorations instead of the tooth coloured plastic materials.
During 2004 I moved to London to follow my wife’s career. Here, I joined a Cosmetic Dentistry and Dental Implants based practice in Richmond, London. I soon enhanced my knowledge in these areas. I spent time with the principal dentist, specialising in the placement of Dental Implants and reconstructive cases with implants, and learning the often neglected skill of planning. Whilst in London I researched and compiled a study on Teeth Whitening for an Australian dental.
