Frederik Dean , dentist

Frederik A Dean BChD PDD (Stell, SA) DipPDS (Bristol) MBA (Open University UK)                with Steffi & Gizmo

Frederik was born in Holland (of English/German parents). He has also lived in the UK and South Africa (where he qualified as a dentist in 1989 at the University of Stellenbosch).  He has obtained postgraduate diploma qualifications in children’s dentistry, orthodontics and sedation techniques (Stellenbosch and Bristol Universities) and an MBA (Master of business administration) from the Open University (UK).

In 2021 He completed the Australian Dental Sleep Institute’s Dental Sleep Medicine Program: “Oral appliance therapy for Snoring, Sleep apnoea and bruxism”. In 2022 he completed Invisalign’s “Invisalign Go Fundamentals Training Course”.

Frederik is passionate about helping patients understand that caries and gum problems are not inevitable. They can be prevented by following good home care habits in partnership with professional support and advice. It can be relatively easy (and need not be costly) to maintain a healthy mouth. Many smile solutions are also quick, painless and affordable.

Aside from dentistry, his interests include beekeeping,  gardening,  ham radio,  classic cars, travel and sailing (covid19 permitting !).
