About Alex

With nearly a decade of clinical experience, my approach to dentistry is built on a simple ethos: treating every patient with the same care and attention that I would give my own friends and family.  Whether I am seeing you for your first dental health check or completing a smile makeover, my goal is to ensure that you feel relaxed and looked after. I take particular pride in helping anxious patients rediscover their confidence at the dentist through a gentle approach and comfortable, modern techniques.

Treatments and services

What Alex offers

  • General & Family Dentistry

    Comprehensive dental check-ups including oral cancer screenings, facial and chewing muscle assessments, and patient education.

  • Biomimetic Dentistry

    Combining the latest in dental material and adhesive sciences, we utilise fiber-reinforced composite white restorations or Emax custom ceramics to restore heavily broken down teeth to their original strength and aesthetics.

  • Composite Bonding

    Minimal preparation layered composite techniques to enhance symmetry, contour and brightness of teeth with a seamless finish.

  • Teeth Whitening

    Tailored whitening to each your enamel type and sensitivity levels, selecting safe, evidence-based systems to achieve a bright but natural shade.

  • Ultra-Conservative Crowns

    Whilst traditional white crowns require 1.5mm of tooth removal at the margins, our advanced Vertiprep technique requires only 0.3mm whilst maintaining the same strength and aesthetics. This ultra-conservative approach keeps your natural tooth structure intact, significantly reducing sensitivity and maximising the long-term strength and longevity of your smile.

  • Smile Design & Digital Aesthetic Planning

    High-resolution clinical photography and 3D intraoral scanning to map your unique dental proportions. This data-driven assessment allows us to engineer a smile that harmonises perfectly with your individual facial features.
