GDC No. 218448
I graduated with a BDS from the Universidad de Santiago de Compostela in Spain in 2003. Before relocating to Edinburgh in 2012, I practiced general dentistry in Spain for 9 years. I have always had an interest in restorative dentistry, especially endodontics and I have been focusing my education in this field since I graduated. After relocating to the UK I achieved a Postgraduate Certificate in Postgraduate Dental Studies with the University of Bristol (2015). After this, to take my education a step further, I enrolled at the University of Chester to achieve a Master of Science in Endodontology, which I completed with merit. I am a member of the British Endodontic Society and continue to attend conferences, seminars and courses both nationally and internationally.
I am here to help with your root canal treatments and anything related to teeth vitality. I have recently incorporated an operating dental microscope (Zeiss Extaro 300) for all my endodontic treatments. All the treatments individualised and patient focused.
