Specialist implant services and treatment for periodontal patients
Since 1997 Adrian has worked in the Parade Dental Surgery, a specialist centre providing Dental Implant services and treatment for patients with advanced periodontal dental breakdown. He is proud to still be seeing patients whom he first treated in his initial weeks at practice and have remained loyal to him throughout many years following full reconstructive treatment, providing patients with years of comfortable and functional smiles.
Adrian’s approach to dentistry
Adrian understands that excellent communication skills are central to successful dental work.He says:
“When I first meet patients, the most important thing me to first to do is sit down and talk and understand what their problems and their wishes are for their future.
In this way the team can understand the particular problems that a patient presents and personalise their care, deciding together how and at what pace their treatment is carried out. From initial decisions to likely outcome, everything we are going to achieve is prescribed, understood and guided by the patient.”
