About James Martin

 

James Martin is a 29-year-old GDP who founded the online community and podcast Dentists Who Invest.

 

After training at Tipton, James has proven to be hugely dedicated to his work achieving a PGCert in restorative and pending PGDip in operative dentistry after CoViD-19 restrictions are alleviated.

 

Working in private practice from a young age allowed him to gain a broad depth of experience far beyond what could be expected of a typical GDP. These treatments include treating the organic causes of TMD (not just automatic referral), full mouth rehabs, clear aligners, experience with CADCAM and Enlighten whitening and much more.

 

In his spare time, he enjoys playing football, going to the gym and reading as well as socialising with friends and family.
