Hi, I’m Bizhan.
I am a registered specialist in oral surgery and I qualified from Barts and The London University in 2008. I divide my time between working at Guy’s Hospital in London and in private practice providing surgical and implant treatment. I am also an honorary clinical lecturer for the Master’s programme in Dental Implantology at Bristol University, and am one of the currently handful of College of General Dentistry approved mentors for implantology.

I have extensive experience and qualifications and have a Master’s degree in dental implantology with distinction. I have also completed an Advanced Surgical Master Curriculum in Regenerative Implant Dentistry with internationally renowned surgeon Professor Istvan Urban, and I use the latest evidence based techniques, equipment and materials for the best results possible. My training is not limited to the surgical field, but also includes aesthetic dentistry, sedation, and clinical hypnotherapy.

I also love teaching and I do this as part of my role at Guy’s Hospital in oral surgery to undergraduate and postgraduate dentists, and I also teach and mentor for the Dental Implantology MSc at Bristol University as well as for colleagues in other practices wanting to learn more about dental implants. I am active in research, having published several papers in peer-reviewed journals. I have presented some of these at national and international conferences, for which I once won an award for in the US.
Currently I am a co-investigator and oral surgeon for a large Clinical Trial at Guy’s Hospital, researching the potential use of a new sedative drug in dentistry. This is a first of its kind research taking place in the world.

I love what I do and am known for being a particularly calm and non-stressy person. And along with a specific attention to being gentle, I think I am very good at putting all my patients at ease and building trust with each other quickly.

As much as I love my work, I think a balanced life is actually essential for working to your full potential, and I love being a dad and spending time with my family. I am also a bit of a geek and love anything to do with tech. When I am not busy with everything else, I love playing the piano.

Hi, I’m Linda.
I am a registered specialist in oral surgery and I qualified from Barts and The London University in 2007. I divide my time between working at Guy’s Hospital in London and in private practice providing surgical and implant treatment.

I have a Diploma in Implant Dentistry from the Royal College of Surgeons, with considerable experience having worked in some of the busiest Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Oral Surgery units in London. I have trained under some of the most recognised and respected consultants in these fields, whom I continue to work alongside of on a part-time basis. At Guy’s Hospital, where I have worked for over 15 years, I also teach undergraduate and postgraduate dentists in oral surgery, and I have been a tutor for the Royal College of Surgeons Certificate in Oral Surgery programme. I also sit on the interview panel for Dental Core Trainees applying for hospital positions in London. I am active in governance and research, having published several papers in peer-reviewed journals. I have presented some of these at national and international conferences, for which I have won awards on more than one occasion.

I have a particularly keen eye for attention to detail and will spare no expense in providing the absolute best care for my patients. I was actually awarded a prize in the dental directorate at Guy’s Hospital titled ‘Above and Beyond’ – for well, going above and beyond in my work as voted by my peers. I am known to be particularly good with nervous patients – I know it can be scary coming to the dentist for any reason, let alone for a surgical procedure. I am down to earth and I look after my patients like my own family and will do everything I can to put them at ease. I am also highly experienced in providing sedation for patients if needed.

I love spending time with my family and seeing my two sons grow and teaching them everything I know. They really keep me on my toes! I also love painting and sculpting whenever I can.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My implant treatment with Bizhan at Caring Dental was very successful and I am delighted with the results. During and after the treatment I was free of pain. Bizhan supplied all I needed to maintain my teeth after treatment and his instructions were clear and easy to follow. I recommend him highly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my wisdom tooth extraction. I had no pain and the one tiny issue I had the next week was dealt with quickly, easily and painlessly. I would definitely recommend to anyone else looking to have their extractions done privately, and the sedation worked extremely well to make it all more comfortable.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband Jose is smiling again after having a top front tooth implant fitted by Bizhan. It matches his teeth perfectly and you cannot even tell that it’s an implant, it looks so natural.  Extremely satisfied with the excellent professional work Bizhan has done, he was extremely caring, explained each step and the whole process was painless.  Highly recommend - Thank you Bizhan

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great consultation with Dr Linda, who was very reassuring and explained my treatment clearly. Dr Bizhan was also extremely kind. He carried out my wisdom tooth removal and two coronectomies, and I’m really pleased with the quick turnaround from my referral and finally being pain-free.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'd had a difficult wisdom tooth extraction 8 years ago, but I feel so lucky to have been recommended Dr Bizhan for it this time around and wish I could have gone to him back then! Through the whole process I felt very well cared for. In the first consultation, Dr Bizhan could see how nervous I was to have another wisdom tooth removed so created a plan that took this into consideration, he patiently explained each step to me and even with the after care answered my questions really quickly by jumping on a call and was able to put me at ease. I'd absolutely go back to Dr Bizhan in the future, knowing you're going to have a really high quality specialist looking after you. Thanks again!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had an upper back tooth removed by Linda, and as someone who gets extremely anxious at the dentist, I was absolutely dreading this. While having a tooth removed is never going to be enjoyable, Linda made the entire experience as positive and comfortable as it could possibly be. Linda listened to me and made sure I was comfortable and in control at every stage of the procedure. Her calm, caring manner instantly put me at ease and her constant reassurance and gentle reminders to breathe really helped. Thanks to her patience, empathy, and professionalism, what I expected to be a distressing appointment, even doubting that I would be able to go through with it, was completely manageable. I am extremely grateful to Linda and I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone especially if you are nervous.
