We are extremely fortunate to have the services of two oral surgeons and in the case of Prof. Lello a Professor of Maxillofacial surgery who is medically and dentally qualified.  Prof. Lello’s standing allows us to use the facilities of the local “Spire” private hospital for treatment under general anaesthetic.

Mr Offord is one of the few oral surgeons who also provides intravenous sedation for surgical procedures, ensuring total comfort and no memory of the procedures. 

The expertise of our surgeons means that there are very few situations which we cannot undertake. Where Prof Lello and Mr Offord excel is in being able to offer dental implant solutions for patients who previously have been told they were unsuitable or had insufficient bone.

Prof.Lello and Mr. Offord are available for direct referral for:
Dental implant surgery - conventional and guided
Sinus and block bone grafting
Wisdom tooth extraction
Cyst removal
Removal of failing implants
Orthognathic surgery in conjunction with orthodontics and rehabilitation.
Second opinions
Connective tissue grafting

Note: increasingly for implant treatment we find that block bone grafting is not required where conventional teaching might suggest it is. If a patient has been put off treatment by the idea of bone grafting or there being insufficient bone, we would recommend an appointment with either of the surgeons to see if alternative solutions are available.
