Dr Jaspal Nagra
General Dentist with Special Interest in Oral Surgery and Periodontology
BDS Hons (Birmingham), MSc (Lancashire)
GDC Number: 278618
I have five years experience of working as a dentist in a variety of different locations across the UK. I have treated a myriad of patients from all different backgrounds and this has helped me to gain the ability to communicate and build a rapport with patients from all walks of life.
I have worked both in primary care and secondary care (hospital) and have thorough knowledge of the dental services in the UK.
Training
Following my undergraduate studies at the University of Birmingham, I went on to complete a year of NHS foundation training in Brighton and Hove. Subsequently, I was a Dental Core Trainee in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth. Since then, I have been an associate for three years in Milton Keynes.
Recently, I have gained my Master’s degree in Oral Surgery at the University of Central Lancashire. This training has given me a wider and deeper understanding of oral surgery and has allowed me to treat patients more effectively, especially with difficult extractions.
Knowledge and skills
I am skilled in complex extractions requiring surgical removal. There is always a degree of satisfaction in being able to conduct these difficult procedures and alleviate patients’ pain. I am very good at treating nervous patients and many patients have commented on my kind and caring nature.
Treating children is another aspect of dentistry I thoroughly enjoy; parents and guardians have remarked on my ability to connect with children and make their dental visits much more pleasurable.
Associations
- British Dental Association (BDA)
- The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow (RCPSG)
Awards
During my undergraduate studies, I received multiple prizes and awards including: The Cale-Matthews Prize in Paediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, The Bowater Memorial Prize for Pharmacology and Therapeutics, The Bradnock Prize in Behavioural Science and The Preclinical Scholarship Prize.
I also achieved the Best Clinical Case Presentation award during my time as a foundation dentist in Sussex.
Charities
I have volunteered in a dental charity programme in India focusing on the provision of dentistry in less developed regions.
Outside of work
Outside of dentistry, I enjoy spending my free time travelling and exploring the world. I have recently been catching up on some old interests and have started to learn the piano again!
