I am especially passionate about cosmetic periodontal surgeries and the impact that this can have on a patient’s aesthetics when smiling. My passion centres around the management of ‘gummy smiles’, where a patient shows a greater proportion of gum tissue when smiling. My expertise in this field has been showcased in the Telegraph, Harper’s Bazaar, Tatler and Cosmopolitan.My work is characterised by a meticulous focus on attention to detail and a holistic approach to care. I strive to be a leader in my field and am continually reviewing and improving my skills so that I can offer the highest standards of care.
