Stephen qualified in Cape Town, South Africa in 1996, and in 1997 he achieved his higher diploma winning the award for student of the year.

He went on to work in crown and bridge labs in South Africa for 3 years before moving to the UK.

Stephen has been involved in all aspects of dental technology over his career and since 2008 has run his Laboratory in Cornwall specialising in aesthetic dentistry.

His passion for the ‘art of dentistry’ is what drives him to continue to strive for perfection, and throughout his career Stephen has attended courses delivered by some of the top technicians in the industry.

In a normal day Stephen works closely with his clients, seeing patients for custom shade matching and finishing.

Stephen takes pleasure in passing on this accumulated knowledge on his own courses, and is happy to tailor courses to the individual needs of the group in attendance.
