Meet The Team, Sean

Sean graduated from the University of Manchester in 2001 and subsequently joined the Royal Navy. He has served around the world as a Dental Officer, including with the Royal Marines in Afghanistan and on board the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal. During this time, he became a Fellow of the Faculty of General Dental Practitioners, the only Dental Officer to date who has gained this accreditation on-board an operational aircraft carrier.

Whilst a general Dental Officer Sean also obtained further postgraduate qualifications including the Certificate in Dental Health Services Leadership and Management, as well as the Diploma and subsequently an MSc in Restorative Dentistry.
Sean undertook his Orthodontic training at Cardiff University, has since practiced in Germany and is currently the sole naval orthodontist, working out of HMS Drake in Plymouth. He has a special interest in Adult Orthodontics and the Orthodontic-Restorative interface.

Sean currently divides his time between his career in the Royal Navy, Riverside Specialist Practice Truro and Better Smiles Tavistock. When both a career in the Royal Navy and Specialist Practice allow he can often be found with his wife and children enjoying the many outdoor pursuits that living on Dartmoor allows.
