Meet The Team

Dr Brett Garner

BMedSci (Biomaterials) BDS (Birm.) - GDC 79898

Brett initially studied a Bachelor of Medical Science in Biomaterials at Birmingham University before he became a dentist, qualifying as from Birmingham University in 2001. He then joined the practice in 2002, when it was Steven Reeves and Associates. He formed Serenity Dental in 2008 when Steven retired and has been the principal dentist since.

Brett enjoys most aspects of dentistry, but particularly enjoys creating natural looking teeth in whatever form he is restoring them from. He also enjoys helping patients through the dental experience as easily as possible. It has been important to him when creating Serenity Dental that the experience is as important as the treatments. Dentistry is not what it used to be and he wants people visiting our practice to be able to understand and feel that. He has chosen his team with that in mind, and particularly enjoys when patients come to realise there is more to dentistry than just teeth.

Dr Fiona Knight

BDS (Lond.) - GDC 64989

After graduating from the Royal London Hospital in December 1989, Fiona worked for a short period in the midlands before moving to this practice, where she has been happy being part of a capable and enthusiastic team since July 1991.

Over this time there have been many positive developments in dentistry which both Fiona and the practice have wholeheartedly embraced. An example is the application of the great advances in adhesive dentistry for both the restoration of broken teeth and for cosmetic dentistry.

Fiona's many years of experience enable her to provide not only a comprehensive range of treatments, but also a balanced one, with the insight to help each patient select the best treatment for them.

Dr Christopher Leech

BDS (Newc.) - GDC 113615

Christopher trained in Newcastle originally and recently relocated to the South to be closer to his family. He is a very enthusiastic dentist and a large proportion of his time is dedicated to post graduate training. As well as his BDS Christopher has also attained his MJDF RCS Eng (membership to the Royal Colleague of Surgeons). He has also undertaken a number of courses in advanced restorative dentistry, cosmetic treatments such as whitening and veneers and invisible braces.

Treating anxious patients and children is also something Christopher enjoys. He has a post graduate qualification in sedation, a fantastic way of overcoming any fears of the dentist although we assure you he is not scary. He will clearly explain what; if any treatment is required; and cover how you will both achieve the best result for you.

Christopher also takes an active role in the profession by having a seat on the British Dental Association Associates Group.

All of our dentists all use the latest magnification aids in the form of loupes and an operating microscope, in order to maximise accuracy when carrying out treatment.

One thing we feel is very important is that each patient sees the same dentist on a continuing basis to help create a good relationship. Dentistry is one of life’s important services which some people find to be intimidating or even embarrassing. At Serenity Dental we aim to alleviate your fears and provide painless dentistry for all the family and because quality is of high importance to us all our dentists adhere to the GDC standards for dental professionals.

Hygienists

We have two Hygienists at Serenity Dental, Sue Woodward and Elaine Kemp. Both our hygienists work very closely with the dentist to prevent and treat gum disease. There is now increasing evidence linking gum disease with heart disease and strokes. It is also the main reason for loss of teeth and because of this we take the treatment of gum disease very seriously.

Your hygienist can

Remove calculus (tartar) from teeth by scaling and polishing

Remove heavy staining by using gentle air abrasion

Treat gum disease

Carry out fresh breath treatments

Teach good oral hygiene techniques to maintain healthy gums
