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. I have recently had some implants fitted by Bizhan to replace some lost teeth. Right from the start Bizhan understood what I was after and was able to come up with a plan to achieve it. Throughout the process he was cool, calm and patient, and was able to explain what needed to be done without making it sound scary. The work is all done now and I am so pleased with the results.  I would recommend to anybody thinking of doing this to talk to him. I’m so glad I did.
In addition to doing implants his skill at extracting difficult teeth is the best I’ve ever come across.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently saw Dr Bizhan at Carin Dental for an implant and I couldn’t be happier with the whole experience.

From the very beginning, Dr Bizhan was incredibly clear and thorough, explaining every step of the process and making sure I fully understood all of my options and what each stage would involve. Everything went very smoothly, and I felt completely reassured throughout.

Naturally, I had some nerves about having the implant done, but Dr Bizhan was so calm, patient and reassuring, which really helped put me at ease. I always felt that I was in safe hands and that everything was being done with great care and attention to detail.

I’m so pleased with the treatment and would highly recommend Dr Bizhan to anyone considering an implant or dental treatment. A fantastic experience from start to finish!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so grateful that Bizhan was recommended to me for implant treatment following a cycling accident.
Bizhan has a kind, calm chairside manner. Everything is explained and he is  there for guidance and advice throughout your treatment.
The end result is so natural and I couldn't  be happier with it
If you are feeling nervous or anxious,  which I was, please don't as you couldn't be in safer hands.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bizhan was recommended to me personally by a friend who is a dentist and a colleague of his. I received an implant from him, and it has recovered beautifully. The entire process was seamless, with minimal pain, and very professional. I believe Bizhan is very experienced and has is very up to date with the latest in the profession - I trust him very much! Thank you so much, Bizhan.

 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.
