Dr Justin Underwood – Interest in Root Canal Treatment. BDS Cardiff 2011 GDC No 210724

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Justin graduated in 2011 from Cardiff University Dental School and started working at the practice in 2018. Justin works three days a week at the practice providing general private dentistry and root canal treatments to a high standard using his microscope.

Justin is studying towards his Masters Degree in Endodontics (root canal treatment) and achieved a Merit in his first year. He has recently been accepted on the Specialist Programme in Kings College London starting in September 2020.

He is also a member of the British Endodontic Society and European Endodontic Society.

It is rare to find a microscope available in general dental practice. The use of the microscope gives fantastic root canal results for the patients due to the much improved vision. He receives referrals for root canal treatment from across Cornwall. He completes complex root canal treatment cases that may prove challenging for other dentists.

These are some of the things his patients say about him:

I have recently had a root canal treatment on one of my molars.  From beginning to end, I was most impressed by Dr. Underwood’s work. He gave me a clear idea of the options available, including the possibility by having the procedure done by a specialist endodontist.  He made the decision process easy for me and at no time did I feel pressed in one way or another. His youthful appearance betrays his skill and obvious knowledge. I cannot recommend him more highly !!” Ricardo Dorich 20/11/19

First root canal treatment today. Justin and Debbie were amazing!!!! thank you for making the whole process a good experience for me. I have left the dentist for the first time in years feeling good and trusting you, so glad I joined the practice, thank you 😀 Anna Tancock

”Justin has done an amazing job with my root canal. No pain during surgery and none afterwards. Justin is very patient and polite and very good explaining procedures. Well done Justin and thank you for your hard, dedicated work”

”Root canal amazing, didn’t feel a thing”

“He inspires confidence and his “bedside manner” is perfect”

In 2016 Justin participated with the dental charity Bridge2aid on a two week expedition in Tanzania. The role involved training local clinical officers in providing emergency dental care, enabling them to be self-sufficient and treat their own local community after their departure.

Originally from Reading, it was Justin’s enjoyment for outdoor sports which brought him to Cornwall.
