I graduated from Kings London in 1999 and started working as an Associate Dentist. I soon realised I wanted buy my own practice and worked towards that as my first goal. I bought my first practice in Oxford in 2003 and Damira Dental Studios was essentially born. 19 years later Damira Dental Studios comprises 27 practices, a mixture of NHS and private and whilst growing the business is still a priority, I also feel drawn towards other areas of Dentistry being a practicing clinician. It has been becoming increasingly apparent that we use a staggering amount of single use products in Dentistry and we don’t really train our teams to think about working sustainably. Whilst we have been able to justify things due to the nature of our business, I strongly believe it’s time to address this issue and see where we can make more sustainable choices without compromising patient safety. I hope to be at the front of the movement addressing this change so that we can benefit the planet and future generations while demonstrating to other medical sectors that more sustainable choices are viable.

"After 31 years in the profession I thought I had covered most meeting formats, but without exception this was the most useful dental meeting I have attended. We were able to cover a lot of ground that would otherwise have taken months or longer. I would encourage anyone to attend this event, and grasp the opportunity with both hands."
- Commercial Director, mydentist
"A very useful way to connect with potential partners within dentistry; the speed-dating format is a fun way to meet new people as well as catch up with familiar faces. I can highly recommend OpenRoom for their thoughtful organisation. Businesses are about people, not systems and processes, and you guys are a pleasure to work with."
