GDC - 74416 BDS (Hons) (Newcastle 1998), MSc Restorative Dentistry (Warwick) Associate Dentist

Clare has a master’s degree in restorative dentistry and takes a particular interest in implants and orthodontics.

After graduating from Newcastle University Dental School in 1998, Clare worked in the North East of England for two years. She then moved to Aberdeen and worked at a private dental practice for 16 years before joining our team at Queens Road.

She regularly undertakes courses to further develop her skills. She did a year-long certificate in dental implants and has completed postgraduate studies in intravenous sedation.

GDC - 254944 BDS, MSc, PhD (Oviedo, Spain, 2007) Associate Dentist

Javier manages a wide range of dental cases. One day he might be using a simple splint to reduce headache, jaw problems and excessive wear for a patient who grinds or clenches their teeth. Another day, he may be using implants, crowns or bridges to help improve a patient’s ability to chew (and therefore to enjoy a varied diet).

He also enjoys carrying out smile makeovers with the latest technologies and treatments, including veneers, teeth whitening and teeth straightening.

Javier has presented at several meetings of the Spanish Society of Stomatological and Esthetic Prostheses (SEPES), the Spanish Society of Craniomandibular Disorders and Orofacial Pain (SEDCYDO), and a well-recognised dental college in Asturias.

No, orthodontics for adults is becoming more and more common. We can talk through your options with you.

We do understand that some people really struggle with dental treatment. But we have lots of ways to help put you at ease. Please just tell us how you feel and what worries you, and then we can work together to decide on the right approach.

Generally we recommend twice yearly check-ups every six months. However, this varies on a case by case basis. Your Bupa Dental Care dentist will talk to you about when and how often we need to see you.

Fillings repair small holes in your tooth enamel. If they aren’t filled, the decay will deepen. You’ll start to feel pain, and you could end up needing root canal treatment, which is much more significant and costs more. So although you might not feel pain right now, it’s best to repair these holes as soon as possible.
