Dr Gregory Flint BDS MBA CMgr FCMI MIC FInstLM MIScT

I am a highly experienced cosmetic dental surgeon with special interests in dental implantology, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, adult orthodontics and non-surgical facial aesthetics.

I also have a growing interest and reputation in dental sleep medicine, recently being confirmed as a speaker at the British Sleep Society conference (Brighton, 2017).

Philosophy

I consider myself to be privileged that people are willing to trust me; as such I am personally and professionally driven to provide an uncompromising approach to how I reciprocate. My role is to;

  • Openly inform patients of treatment options without showing undue bias.
  • Provide clinical transparency with regards to both benefits and possible disadvantages.
  • Share realistic timescales and financial information
  • Strive for excellent clinical outcomes through education and mentorship.
  • Seek to disseminate great clinical knowledge through the profession.
  • Align all the above with a warm and personal service that holds the patient at the center of decisions.

I believe that the soft skills of sound service/ business culture build ‘brand’ and promote ‘growth’ in a superior manner than any isolated marketing push. Dentistry and medicine are about improving the quality and longevity of our lives, so we must always look for long-term solutions and consistently seek to strengthen the integrity of our own provision and that of the profession as a whole.

In parallel, my personal development track has included business and management; established through my MBA, Chartered Manager status and over 15 years’ senior practice and clinical management experience.
