Dr Chandan Varsani
BDS (london), PgCert Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry
Dr. Varsani qualified from Bart’s and The Royal London School of Medicine and Dentistry.
He is passionate about every aspect of general dentistry with a keen interest in restorative and cosmetic dentistry. He enjoys using the latest techniques and materials to ensure he provides the best care for his patients. He aims to treat all patients in a calm and confident manner, especially nervous and first-time patients. Dr. Varsani’s engaging and friendly nature can make the most nervous of patients feel at ease.
In order to deliver confident smiles, Dr. Varsani utilises whitening systems such as Boutique with composite bonding. He also likes providing cosmetic treatments such as veneers, white crowns and bridges. Dr. Varsani is an Invisalign accredited provider, enabling him to offer orthodontics to patients and achieve their desired cosmetic outcome. He is a key believer in Align, Bleach and Bond techniques to get outstanding results with minimally invasive techniques.
Within the last few years, Dr. Varsani has attended numerous lectures, courses, and seminars to ensure he is up to date with the recent techniques. He has moved towards a digital approach in dentistry which allows his work to be predictable and accurate. He has completed an one-year postgraduate course in restorative and aesthetic dentistry.
Dr. Varsani thoroughly enjoys charitable work and recently had the opportunity to visit a rural orphanage in India. During his time he showed children how to brush their teeth and educate them about oral hygiene and its many benefits. This was a mind opening experience for him, as it shows how unfortunate some people around the world are, with no access to a toothbrush or toothpaste. He regularly carries out charity work at schools too, helping students with their dentistry applications and interviews.

Dr Jassar El Jabouri
Qualifications:
Tandarts Nijmegen 2003
Dr Jassar El Jabouri – a leading expert in the field of root canal therapy.
As a vastly experienced dentist in this field with a strong commitment to patient care (and also to using the latest technology that the profession has to offer), Dr El Jabouri appeals to many such patients – people who want the very best treatment available anywhere in the UK and are determined to put their dental care in the safest possible hands.
In a career spanning almost 20 years, Dr El Jabouri has undertaken more than 7,500 root canal treatments, most of the time performing the surgery through the lens of a highly-specialised microscope – his current choice is a state-of-the-art Carl Zeiss microscope, widely recognised as the finest instrument in its field. It enables him to find – and treat – root canals narrower than a human hair.
His other areas of expertise include restorative dentistry such as metal-free white fillings.
During the last two decades, he has mentored and coached more than 50 dentists and accepted patients from more than 120 referring dentists.
Dr El Jabouri is a member of both the British Endodontic Society and The American Association of Endodontists.
