We were recently shortlisted for the Best Aesthetic Practice South by the Aesthetic Dentistry awards, which was a fantastic achievement. The awards were held last night in central London. Unfortunately we did not win the title but to make the final was a real honour. Dr Veehar Malde also made the shortlist for the Best Case Full Mouth, which was a great achievement considering the level of expertise on show. His case was an amazing smile transformation and had a profound effect on the patient.

Dr Nissit Patel has also been shortlisted for the Best Dentist South awards by the Dental Awards, which is due to be held in April. Fingers crossed!

Our case of the month for March 2015 is a fantastic smile transformation using ABC. What is ABC? Simple: 1. A is for ALIGNMENT. The teeth are straightened using one of our adult orthodontic techniques. 2. B is for BLEACHING. Whitening is carried out using a take home kit or our new Philips Zoom LED in chair whitening. 3. C is for COSMETIC BONDING. Any chipped, uneven, rough edges can be restored with our tooth like adhesive bonding techniques. ABC is the non invasive smile makeover. There is no need for drilling away of healthy tooth enamel, no need for injections and there is no pain. What could be better? Take a look for yourself:
 

Following on from our two nominations at the Aesthetic Dentistry Awards for Best Aesthetic Practice South and Best Full Mouth case (Dr Veehar Malde), Progressive Dentistry have just learned about another nomination. Dr Nissit Patel has been shortlisted for Best Dentist South at the Dental Awards. The Dental awards are the longest running in the dental profession and to be shortlisted into the final for such a vast category is a huge achievement. The Aesthetic Dentistry Awards take place on the 20th March 2015 and the Dental Awards on 17th April 2015. We will keep you posted! In the meantime go to our awards page to see all the awards we have won to date.

We strongly believe in continual professional development or CPD for short. The developments in dentistry are moving at a rapid rate and it is vital to keep up to date with the these advancements. On Friday, Dr Nissit Patel and Paula Ryan will be attending a core CPD meeting in Kensington. This will address important issues such as oral cancer, dental radiology, medical emergencies, decontamination and cross infection. As a practice, we are committed to being at the forefront of dental care. We undertake hundreds of hours of CPD per year, above and beyond the minimum requirements.
