He offers a full range of treatments from general health dentistry through to cosmetic, surgical implants, orthodontics and tooth straightening procedures, facial aesthetics and sedation techniques for anxious patients, all in a relaxed and pain-free environment.

This year, at the Aesthetic Dental Award 2017, Mide was highly commended in the category of restorative dentistry.
“I believe good oral health start with good education and I have a passion for raising awareness particularly among the younger generation. Within my locality, I enjoy being invited into schools to give educational talks on the importance of good oral health.”
Outside of work, Mide enjoys spending time with his wife Ife, and two young daughters Tiwa and Simi who are both very excited as Daddy’s new practice is on the way home from school/nursery!
