A DENTAL practice which featured in a BBC documentary fought off stiff competition to scoops four titles at this year’s The Dentistry Awards, including “Best Dental Team UK”.

Kissdental, which has a clinics in Flixton, Altrincham and Manchester and a workforce of 24, have won the “Best Team Northwest” and overall “Best Dental Team UK” awards.

Individually, Kissdental principal nurse Mia Larsen-Marshall won the “Most Outstanding Individual Northwest” and “Most Outstanding Individual in Dentistry” awards for her work with dental implants.

Implantologist and principal dentist Kailesh Solanki appeared in the documentary “The TruthAbout Your Teeth”, which followed the journey of Kissdental patient, Altrincham woman Angie Barlow, who required extensive dental surgical treatment after using Superglue for years to try and keep her loose teeth in place.

The two were also subsequently interviewed on ITV’s “This Morning” programme.

“These awards are such a wonderful accolade for the work we carry out as a team”, said Kailesh.

“We are a close group of individuals and I think that it shows in the excellent service we’re committed to providing for our patients.

“I’m delighted that Mia in particular has been highlighted for her expertise in fitting dental implants and dedication, having worked her way up to the role of principal nurse, but I’m proud of each and every one of our staff members who have contributed towards putting Kissdental ahead of the field.”
