I specialise in the management of deeply impacted wisdom teeth, neonatal tongue tie and the management of cysts of the maxillofacial skeleton. I have performed over several thousands (on average 600 - 700 cases a year) of oral surgical procedures over the last five years as a consultant oral surgeon. Most commonly I perform surgical removal of teeth, exposures of impacted teeth and the surgical management of cysts in the maxillofacial region.I have operated on over 150 adolescents with severely displaced and highly morbid teeth, utilising unique surgical planning with 3D CBCT scan. This careful planning ensures preserved bone and minimal complications. Additionally, I set up and manage a centralised neonatal tongue tie service for the region. I have seen over 1,200 neonates and have carried out over 600 releases in the last five years. I have been a consultant oral surgeon since September 2011 and previously an associate specialist in oral and maxillofacial surgery since 2008.I organise and run an annual oral surgery symposium at national level, delivering a high standard of education for oral surgeons and other healthcare clinicians to improve the standard and delivery of care in oral surgery.I'm a teacher and trainer for postgraduate dentists who specialise in oral surgery and am a senior lecturer at the University of Leeds. In addition to my clinical work I am an honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Leeds. I'm also an Editorial Reviewer for the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.I welcome appropriate patients wishing to refer and pay for treatment themselves without the need for a GP letter of referral.I am available for appointments at Spire Wellesley Hospital on Wednesday evenings.
