Referrals

 Dr. Jane Akhtar has been treating patients on referral for endodontics since 2019, and attained an MSc in Endodontics, with distinction, from The University of Chester (2022). Having qualified from Cardiff University in 1993, she has over 30 years of general dental experience and is happy to accept referrals for the following treatments:

Non surgical endodontics
Diagnosis and second opinion
Curved canals
Re-treatments
Perforation repairs
Narrow or calcified canals
Broken instrument and post removal
MTA apexification (open apices)
Trauma cases

Jane is also happy to discuss cases, and view radiographs from the referring dentist if reassurance about the case is needed

Goodwill

The patient will be returned to your care with a provisional restoration, unless you specifically request that we provide the permanent coronal restoration. I will not perform any other treatment without your expressed consent. I do not allow referred patients to join any practice at which I am based and I don’t pass negative judgement on previous endodontic attempts.

Making a referral

Step 1
Fill out the short referral form.

Step 2
We will contact your patient to arrange a consultation.

Step 3
The consultation will include a thorough dental examination and a discussion about how we can best treat the case, including success rate and prognosis. X-rays and CBCT scans (if necessary) will be included.

Step 4
Both you and your patient will receive a detailed report and treatment plan.

Step 5
Treatment will be carried out and a follow-up appointment scheduled.

Step 6
Once treatment is successfully completed, your patient will be returned to your care for the coronal restoration.
