Specialist care for priority groups:
- Patient groups with oral cancer,
- Patients who are born with missing teeth (hypodontia),
- Patients with oral developmental deformities (e.g. cleft lip & palate)
- Patients affected by significant oral and facial trauma.
Specialist advice & treatment or treatment planning to general dental practitioners in the following areas:
- Endodontics (root canal problems),
- Periodontics (gum problems),
- Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics (replacement of missing or worn and broken down teeth)
- Implant Dentistry.
We work in partnership with the University of Leeds and Health Education England (Yorkshire and the Humber) to provide teaching to a range of students and dental professionals (dentists, hygiene therapists, nurses and technicians) and conduct clinical dental research.
