Experience

Richard qualified at Guy’s Hospital in 1993, and was immediately accepted onto the staff, where he stayed for 18 months. During this early stage he was fortunate to work with Professor Brånemark, the discoverer of Osseointegration, the foundation of all modern day dental implants.

He then continued his training at the Royal Berkshire Hospital and from there the world famous Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead.

Richard continued with his implantology studies under Professor R.B. Johns at the Institute for Dental Implants, which included further episodes of tuition under Professor Brånemark himself at the world famous institute in Sweden. These culminated in Richard being the first person in this country to place the revolutionary Brånemark Novum System. He then became a part-time lecturer at King’s College Hospital Dental School, and latterly conducts training courses for post graduate dentists on Dental Implantology.

Various dental implant and oral surgery take up the remainder of his time referral services at centres of excellence throughout the South East, along with his practice in Mayfair – London, where he has also developed an enviable reputation in the field of cosmetic dentistry.
