Alastair grew up in Marlborough and studied Dentistry at the University of Bristol. After qualifying with BDS honours and winning the DENTSPLY oral medicine prize, he completed his foundation training year in South Gloucestershire. He went on to work in the Bristol Dental hospital, and The Royal United Hospital, Bath, for two years as a Senior House Officer in Oral Medicine and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, gaining experience in complicated extractions and the treatment of unusual oral health conditions. During this time Alastair completed his membership of the joint dental faculties of the Royal College of surgeons.
In 2013, Alastair travelled to Tanzania with the charity Bridge2aid to teach rural clinical officers how to safely remove teeth under local anaesthetic. Since then he has completed a three-year Master’s Degree in Dental Implantology at the University of Bristol, as well as further training in sinus grafting. Alastair enjoys helping patients with missing teeth to restore their smile using dental implants in a safe, relaxed way.
Alastair jointed Savernake Dental in June 2014 and has enjoyed getting to know his patients and their families. He prides himself on providing high quality, ethical care, putting his patients’ interests first. Alastair is always happy to treat nervous patients, helping them to get the care they need and putting them at ease through creating a calm, friendly atmosphere.
Outside of dentistry, Alastair lives locally with his wife and three children. He is a volunteer for the Aldbourne Beavers group and enjoys being out in the great outdoors, particularly cycling, running and going on adventures with his family.
