SAGA — Doing things properly

Dr Keith Cohen

Dr Keith Cohen, head of the Dentexcel team based in London’s Harley Street and the City, is our dentistry expert.

Keith specialises in making people smile. His view is that dental treatment can totally change someone’s appearance: “This is why so many women (and even men) change their hairstyle and glasses after restorative dentistry”, he says. “They really do look and feel like a completely different person. It’s as much a matter of restoring their self-esteem and confidence as their smile and good dental health.” He is a specialist in restorative dentistry and is happy to answer questions on implants, bone-grafting, restorative dentistry and the more complex procedures and technologies now available.
