Dr Andy Stafford graduated from Newcastle University Dental School in 2001 and established The Cosmetic Dental Clinic alongside his good friend Dr Darren Cannell in 2006.

In 2014, Andy gained a Master’s degree with distinction in restorative and aesthetic dentistry from the University of Manchester. His dissertation looked into the success of CAD/CAM materials produced using the CEREC system—one of his career-long passions.

He has since lectured worldwide to fellow clinicians on how to achieve improved outcomes with the system.

He has committed a great deal of time to travel extensively in North America, attending and completing scientific conferences in Vancouver, San Diego, New Orleans, Washington DC., Las Vegas, and Chicago. He has attended hundreds of lectures and hands-on sessions with the world’s most prominent cosmetic dentists.

He has also completed training with the University of Sheffield, Dr Paul Tipton, and the renowned Malo Clinic in portugal.
