Radhika Patel

Dentist with a special interest in Endodontics GDC No. 251514

Radhika completed her five-year undergraduate training at King’s College London in 2014, where she developed the skills and knowledge necessary to qualify as a dentist. This rigorous education equipped her to deliver a high standard of care to her patients.

She gained her (MFDS) membership of the faculty of dental surgery, from the Royal College of Surgeons Edinburgh in 2016 and is currently undertaking specialist postgraduate education in Endodontology at King’s College London.

After qualifying, Radhika had the privilege of working in the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery unit at the Royal United Hospital in Bath, where she honed her skills and broadened her clinical experience. Her journey as a general dentist spanned several years, during which she discovered a deep passion for Endodontics—a field that captivated her with its intricate challenges and complexities.

Driven by this passion, Radhika pursued advanced specialist training in Endodontics at King’s College London, where she refined her expertise and dedicated herself to excellence in this specialised area of dentistry.

She is passionate about Endodontology because it demands both technical precision and the ability to navigate complex challenges, all of which are essential to providing exceptional clinical care. Radhika finds immense satisfaction in treating Endodontic disease, knowing that her work helps patients preserve their natural teeth and maintain their oral health.

In her spare time she enjoys spending time with friends and family, often centered around food—whether she’s experimenting with new recipes or exploring different cuisines. Radhika also has a deep appreciation for nature and a passion for travel.

To maintain both her physical and mental well-being, she stay’s active by going to the gym and running regularly.

St Faith Dental Clinic

One of the leading dental practices in East Grinstead and West Sussex.

Unfortunately NHS Commissioning standards have changed

We are now obliged to carry out all NHS treatment on under 12’s using inhalation sedation only.

This limits the types of treatment that we may be able to carry out on NHS contract, and regrettably we cannot guarantee that we will be able to complete all of the treatment you have been referred for.

We remain compliant with National ‘IACSD’ sedation guidelines which allow us the clinical freedom to use -where necessary -alternative ‘advanced’ sedation techniques on a non- NHS (private) basis.

If it looks like treatment will not be successful under ‘basic’ sedation, the options will be to refer you onward to Community Dental Service or Hospital (where facilities allow) or back to your own dentist for the treatment to be attempted under local anasethetic, or to discuss re-referral on a private basis.

We wish to make clear that this situation is purely as a result of NHS commissioning and completely beyond our control, but assure you of our best efforts in continuing to provide high standards in NHS treatment where possible.
