Alan graduated from Kings College London in 2015, after completing the 5 year BDS training programme, and has been working in general practice since.

Alan’s devotion to his patients, together with his easy-going and friendly manner, has built him strong patient bases and excellent reviews at all practices where he has worked.

Postgraduate Education

Alan is committed to postgraduate education, a necessity to keep up to date with the latest advancements and to be able to offer the highest level of patient care.

MJDF (RCS England)

In 2018 Alan completed the 2 Part MJDF examinations, from the Royal College of Surgeons, England. This postgraduate diploma is considered a ‘stamp of approval’ as to the dentist’s knowledge and skills across the full spectrum of dental care.

MSc Restorative Dentistry

In October 2021, after 2 years of intensive study, assignments and hard work, Alan completed his postgraduate Masters Degree in Restorative Dentistry from the University of Birmingham.

This course is aimed at developing advanced skills across the full range of dental treatments-from simple fillings, to advanced smile makeovers. With a strong focus on Minimally Invasive Dentistry, the course has helped Alan to develop expert skills in the use of direct composite to provide natural-looking sculpted white fillings in back teeth, and cosmetic bonding for front teeth. Please see Alan’s portfolio for some cases.

Alan has also recently completed the 1 year course from Advanced Dental Seminars in Cosmetic and Aesthetic Dentistry. This was run by the renowned Dr Chris Orr, one of the pioneers of cosmetic dentistry in the UK.

Tooth whitening

Composite bonding

Veneers

Smile design and makeover

Management of complex toothwear/discolouration
