Mike Cassidy, GDC 52080 qualified at Glasgow Dental Hospital in 1978 and carried out an 8 year postgraduate training programme leading to a Consultancy at Leeds Dental Institute in 1986. Ten years later, he moved to Jersey in the Channel Islands and was appointed Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at
Jersey General Hospital. Mike also owns a practice on the Island where he treats patients with a wide range of clinical dental problems. He is well known for his relaxed, easy-going lecture style, using clinical material from his own patients to demonstrate a wide range of clinical problems and solutions. Mike believes very firmly in evidence-based treatment, and will back up the clinical material with appropriate supportive, scientific evidence from the literature where possible.

Mr Graham Gilmour, GDC 52086 is Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at Mayday Hospital, Croydon - a post he has held since 1988. A graduate of Glasgow Dental Hospital, Graham has always had a very keen interest in postgraduate education and training - combining his clinical duties at the Mayday Hospital with his teaching duties at Kent, Surrey and Sussex Deanery where he is Associate Postgraduate Dental Dean. Currently, Graham is heavily involved with developing the training course for Clinical Dental Technicians at a national level. Graham is very much a hands-on dentist, and makes great use of humour whilst delivering high quality education during his lectures.
