Spyridon qualified as a Dental Surgeon from the University of Athens in 2006. He went on to complete his military service in the Greek Army, where he served as a military dentist for 1 year. After his dismissal from the army, he moved to the UK, where he worked as a general dentist, fulfilling his dream of working abroad.
His passion for dental surgery led him soon to extensive training on dental implants, both in the UK and abroad obtaining certificates in implantology from the Oxford Association of Dental Implantology and the Ministry of Health of Cuba. He then went on to complete his Master’s Degree in Dental Implantology from the University of Central Lancashire. Spyridon has been placing dental implants since 2013 and is a member of the Association of Dental Implantology (ADI), the International Team for Implantology (ITI), as well as an associate Fellow of the College of General Dentistry (CGDen). Further to his implant training, Spyridon has obtained additional training in soft tissue surgery (such as soft tissue grafting and crown lengthening procedures), bone grafting, restoration of dental implants, cosmetic composite restorations and dental laser treatments.
In 2017, Spyridon was awarded a Postgraduate Certificate in Dental Education from the University of Bedfordshire and he has been an Educational Supervisor for young dentists in the East Midlands. Spyridon is currently teaching in a dental implantology course and is also a mentor for dental implants, listed in the ADI and Implantswiss lists of mentors.
Currently, Spyridon is undertaking a postgraduate Diploma in Oral Surgery.
When not in surgery, Spyridon enjoys acting with an amateur theatrical group, playing in a band and being in nature. Travelling is his greatest passion and it’s his life aim to visit as many countries as possible with his family and indulge in their culture and traditions. He is also a proud father of two young boys who take up most of his spare time!
