I am one of the lucky Dentists to have qualified from the University of Malta in 2003. The first three years of my dental degree allowed me to merge with a Doctor of Medicine degree which allows me to have an in depth knowledge of medical conditions patients may present with when they attend for dental treatment.
I came to the UK in 2005 after being enticed by my lecturers and British expats in Malta. I initially worked as an NHS Dentist for a year and a half which gave me a great insight at the start of my career. I have since been involved in full private dentistry since 2006.
Dedicating my time to private dentistry allows me to spend quality time with the patient and as I progressed further, I found my time was spent helping patients with more complex treatment cases. I then decided to invest to further my education to provide advanced dental care. In 2010 I achieved my Diploma in Restorative Dentistry from the Royal College of Surgeons and in 2011 I was awarded a Distinction for a Master of Science in Clinical Restorative Dentistry from the University of Leeds.
It wasn’t long after this that I started to recognised there were more and more patients who wanted to consider dental implants as part of their complex restorative treatments. I had already had considerable exposure to dental implants having worked with an experienced and highly respected Implantologist in Stockton On Tees. Again I was keen to advance in Implantology and placed even further investment into my personal development and I trained in the placement of dental implants. I was then awarded a Diploma in Dental Implants by the Royal College of Surgeons of England; a degree which is well known by dentists to be hard to achieve. But a Diploma by itself isn’t really enough. I was lucky enough to have lots of input and guidance and I gained so much from my very experienced mentor himself who had around 28 years of experience under his belt!
So here I am, after spending so much time and investment I am in a perfect position to treat complex cases. I am passionate to do things right for each individual patient. I am honoured when patients can put their trust in me to help them make decisions to allow them to achieve the smile they have dreamt of. For some patients the treatment I can provide can be life changing which makes everything so worthwhile. At the end of the day, if the patient is happy, I am happy, and I like being happy!
Away from the practice I am very much a family man. I am married to a gorgeous British lady called Theresa and we are blessed with two gorgeous sons Rafael and Luca. I enjoy playing the guitar and like to tinker with anything that I can get my hands and brains into.
