Team Bio's
Dr Adnan Rehman
Principal Dentist
GDC No. 76253
I am very proud and equally rewarding, to be able to change peoples lives through rebuilding confidence to smile and function.
I am motivated because I have and continue to peruse the extensive knowledge required when considering patients clinical and emotional needs by achieving harmony between the biology, science, technical aspects of aesthetics and mechanics. In pursuit of gaining the highest level of Implant knowledge, I have completed the training programme at the Royal College of London and fully qualified at the Royal College of Edinburgh in the field of Implantology.
I am enthused by having a team that is highly motivated and have many years of experience and are knowledgeable.
When you come to visit the practice we will endeavour to take your oral health as a precious responsibility not to be taken for granted.
