Dr Jamie Fenton qualified from Kings university in 2005, and was in the same study class with Dr Richard. Since then he has been a generalist working in all aspects of dentistry for over 15 years in Kent and London.

He has undertaken numerous courses and many additional hours of postgraduate training in order to refine and update his skills including but not limited to orthodontics (including braces and Invisalign), cosmetic dentistry (including veneers and composite bonding) and dental implants.

Dr Jamie finds that many aspects of dentistry need to tie together.
