The intimate entanglement of Endo, Perio and Implant dentistry means what you get from us is a rounded educational experience.

We are 3 friends that trained together, work together and now learn from each other.  EPIcentre was born from case discussions amongst ourselves and a realisation that we could be having these  conversations  with the wider dental community.
