I graduated from King’s College London in 2013 and joined Crescent Lodge in 2019.
I love my job and I am passionate about providing the highest quality care for my patients. Using clinical photography and digital imaging to clearly explain diagnoses, my patients understand their options and feel confident in every decision we make together.
My postgraduate training in Europe and the USA has focused on rebuilding teeth in a way that respects how they meet and function, ensuring restorations feel natural and stand the test of time.
I was honoured to be a finalist in the 2022 Private Dentistry Awards for Young Dentist of the Year and the 2022 Clinical Case Awards. I also love teaching and teach postgraduate dentists in the latest methods of restoring teeth.
I’m passionate about delivering high-quality, minimally invasive dentistry. I have a particular interest in rebuilding worn and damaged teeth using composite bonding wherever possible to ensure preservation of your natural tooth structure.
This includes constructing high-precision chrome dentures as an alternative to dental implants.
I treat facial pain, TMJd and bite problems, providing tailored Mihigan and Tanner splints and sleep clench devices , to help patients enjoy a better quality of life.
Outside dentistry, I race go-karts competitively around the UK — a hobby that mirrors my clinical philosophy: precision, focus and continual refinement.

This patient had severe tooth wear affecting both the upper and lower teeth. Dr Dino first used fixed braces to create space for reconstruction while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.
I rebuilt the lower teeth using additive composite bonding, meaning no healthy tooth tissue needed to be removed. The upper teeth were then restored with six minimally prepared ceramic crowns, with additional bonding on the premolar teeth. The result restored function, appearance and long-term protection while remaining as conservative as possible.
Years of tooth grinding combined with an acidic diet had caused extensive wear to the lower front and back teeth.
The front teeth were rebuilt with composite bonding, while strong ceramic onlays were used to restore the back teeth and protect what remained. This approach restored the patient’s bite, improved the appearance of the smile and helped preserve the remaining tooth structure.
The lower teeth were first aligned with Invisalign so that I could restore them using composite bonding with no removal of healthy tooth tissue.
The upper teeth were then restored with a combination of ceramic and composite restorations. Old crowns affected by decay were replaced, creating a healthier, stronger and more natural-looking smile while preserving as much tooth structure as possible. The upper two front teeth are natural – and have only been whitened.
This patient had severe tooth staining caused by childhood antibiotics and had previously had composite veneers placed for over 20 years which were discoloured and dull in appearance affecting the patients smile and confidence.
After carefully removing the old restorations, Invisalign was used to improve tooth position before replacing the upper restorations with porcelain veneers and rebuilding the lower teeth with composite bonding. Special techniques were used to mask the underlying staining and create a brighter, natural-looking smile with long-term colour stability.
This patient had advanced gum disease and required removal of all remaining teeth.
The extractions were carried out under sedation and an immediate denture was fitted on the same day, meaning the patient was never without teeth. Once healing was complete, a definitive set of dentures was constructed to provide improved comfort, appearance and chewing ability.
This patient attended with worn dentures and a bite that had gradually shifted over many years.
By carefully correcting the jaw position and designing new dentures around a healthier bite, we were able to improve both facial support and smile appearance.
This tooth had deep decay that had reached the nerve and was causing inflammation.
After removing the decay, a calcium silicate material called Biodentine was placed which helped protect the nerve and prevented root canal treatment. The tooth was then restored with a crown.
This tooth had extensive decay and weakened walls that required protection.
Rather than placing a full crown, a ceramic onlay was used to strengthen the tooth while preserving more healthy tooth structure. This conservative approach provides excellent protection while being less invasive than traditional crown treatment.
Decay was carefully removed and the tooth restored using a tooth-coloured composite filling.
The restoration was shaped to recreate the tooth’s natural anatomy, restoring strength, function and appearance while blending naturally with the surrounding teeth.
This patient required extensive rehabilitation but wished to avoid implants and further extractions.
To hold on to the worn lower teeth I first carried out root canal treatment and then rebuild them with direct composite bonding, while dentures were used to replace missing teeth. Temporary dentures were first used to establish a comfortable jaw position before the final dentures were constructed, restoring appearance, comfort and chewing function.
This patient had significant tooth wear on the backs of the upper front teeth, as well as missing back teeth.
The worn teeth were rebuilt using additive composite bonding to preserve the remaining tooth structure. Precision metal-based dentures were then used to replace the missing teeth and restore support for the bite.
