About Christopher Sale -Your Dentist
Christopher comes from an art background and draws on these skills when applying his dentistry. He has two qualifications, his primary degree from Bristol University and a *Prosthodontic degree from Edinburgh University.
A degree in *Prosthodontics provides a deeper understanding of materials and their application in aesthetics and the dynamic functionality of the mouth. By understanding these basic building blocks it helps to improve predictability and outcomes of treatments, thereby optimising success. We are also able to save teeth, where others deem them useless.
