Profile –Finlay Sutton

I am immensely proud and honoured to be Patron of Den-Tech, a unique and wonderful charity. I whole heartedly support the tremendous work of Den-Tech helping homeless people in the UK regain their dignity with well made dentures. In addition, this fantastic service is provided abroad too. I encourage all dentists and technicians to consider giving their time or donating to this much needed cause.

I am based in Garstang (North West England) limiting my clinical work to removable prosthodontics. Together with my highly skilled dental technicians (Rowan Garstang and Sam Hesketh), working in the room next door, we provide patients with superbly functioning and life-like dentures – often profoundly improving their quality of life.

I love teaching dental professionals how to provide state of the art dentures, aiming to ignite enthusiasm for removable prosthodontics.

I qualified in 1993 and spent 6 years in general practice, during this time I found prosthodontics difficult and unpredictable. This led me to leave general dental practice and gain a further 7 years formal training in prosthodontics and restorative dentistry at Manchester and Liverpool dental hospitals prior to establishing my specialist referral practice in 2007.

I concentrate my professional life within three areas of removable prosthodontics, namely; 1. clinical provision for patients, 2. training/lecturing/mentorship for dental professionals, 3. research and development.
