PRINCIPAL DENTIST

George is Shakespeare Drive’s visiting provider of intravenous sedation for nervous patients and assists with complex implant treatments. George has been a successful dental practice owner for over 20 years and his flagship practice in Swadlincote, Derby, was acquired by Colosseum Dental UK in March 2021. George continues to work in Swadlincote as part of the transition but is now free to apply his experience to Shakespeare Drive. 

George is an accredited implant mentor and has completed both the Royal College of Surgeon’s Diploma in Implant Dentistry and an MSc degree in Implant Dentistry with the University of Leeds. George has been involved in mentoring dentists for many years, and was a Vocational Trainer with Health Education England (Midlands & East) for almost 20 years. He is skilled with modern technologies such as virtual scanning of teeth (to replace conventional moulds for dentures, crowns and implants) and 3D implant planning software, which will be of great help as the practice is brought up-to-date. 

He is a member of the British Dental Association and has held several committee positions in the past. He is also a full member of the Faculty of General Dental Practitioners and a member of the Association of Dental Implantology. He is also on the European Consultant Panel for 3M testing various new innovative materials. George is married with four children. He is a keen Derby County fan and is a regular at Pride Park with his sons. He keeps fit by taking regular walks and occasional visits to the gym.
