Dr Umer Hameed

Umer graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2016 and has continued to develop his skills through postgraduate education. He completed a year-long programme in Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry with Advanced Dental Seminars in 2019, and obtained a Diploma Certification in Clear Aligner Therapy from the City of London Dental School in 2022. He has also attended many courses and hands-on training programmes with experienced dentists around the world, exploring contemporary techniques in aesthetic dentistry.

Alongside clinical practice, Umer is a vocational trainer who guides and mentors newly qualified dentists. He teaches dentists who come to observe treatment, particularly composite bonding, and lectures to postgraduate dentists at Glasgow Dental Hospital. He has received Young Dentist awards and shortlistings at the Dentistry Awards, Private Dentistry Awards and Scottish Dental Awards.

Having completed many smile makeovers, Umer believes a smile should be a natural, enhanced version of the person. He begins by understanding you, your concerns and how you hope to feel as well as what you hope to achieve. His approach considers facial harmony, tooth shape, proportions, texture and the way light reflects across each tooth, while preserving natural tooth structure wherever appropriate. His aim is to combine natural aesthetics with oral health and lasting function.
