Dr Raj qualified from University College London and has been providing NHS and private treatment to patients living and working in the Gray’s Inn Road area for over 35 years. He particularly enjoys motivating patients to look after their teeth as a preventative measure. His philosophy is to try and conserve as much natural tissue as possible.
Apart from dentistry, Dr Raj enjoys taking his dogs on long walks and playing field hockey. His favourite film is an obscure one from the ‘70s called ‘Open Season’ with William Holden and Peter Fonda. He has fond memories of sneaking in to see it as an underage teen, but it still gives him a great deal to reflect on, even after 40 years.
Dr Caleb studied in the Royal London Hospital, which equipped him to treat a wide range of conditions and patients. He’s passionate about supporting patients to overcome their phobias and anxieties about visiting the dentist, and also helping people become more confident in their smile.
Dr Caleb also loves being a dentist because he gets to work with the latest equipment and learn lots about cutting-edge technology and tools. Outside of work, he enjoys playing tennis, listening to classical music, and tinkering with electronics.

I have visited other dental surgeries in the past , but coming to Dental Smiles was a whole new experience. A bunch of friendly staff, Dr Caleb I am stuck with for life, I never knew extracting 2 wisdom tooth could be so pain free and effortlessly extracted. Trust me this is my second time of having my wisdom tooth extracted, but this second experience with Dr Caleb was amazing. I also had a filling, deep clean and I have been back for a routine check up just to see my progress after 3 months. Trust me I am well happy with the health of my teeth and it was money spent well. Thanks to everyone.
Yes, we welcome new patients to the practice and encourage everyone to get in touch with us to discuss their dental needs.
We do. If you have a dental emergency, we offer same day appointments to help fix the problem. We can give you complete and clear guidance on what treatment you will need to stop your pain and allow you to get on with your life. The cost of this dental emergency consultation is £80, and is not available on the NHS. We’re open on Saturdays and have some evening appointments available, so contact us to book an emergency dental appointment at one of our practices in Kings Cross, Euston, or Gray’s Inn.
We understand your fears and respect the worries you have about seeking dental treatment. If it matters to you, it matters to us. Our experienced team always takes a gentle, kind approach with nervous patients, taking everything at a pace that suits you.
In certain circumstances we can do remote consultations before an in-person appointment. Contact us to learn more.
We offer a free 45 - 60 minute initial consultation with one of our friendly treatment coordinators, which is available to new patients considering a cosmetic dental treatment such as Invisalign, veneers, dental implants, and dentures.
How much your appointment costs will depend on the treatment, but a new patient consultation including small x-rays and treatment plan will cost £55.
Invisalign treatment starts from £3,200. We offer free orthodontic consultations, but if you’re a new patient, you’ll need to have a new patient examination first, which will cost £55 including small x-rays and treatment plan. After that, we can book you in for your free Invisalign consultation.
Yes! We understand that investing in the dental health of you and your family can be costly. We want all our patients to access the dental care they need without the financial stress or worry, so we offer a range of payment options, including 0% interest free plans, to make your private dentist treatment as affordable as possible. See our pricing page for more information.
We recommend our patients have a dental check-up every six to 12 months, which allows us to keep on top of your oral health and make sure that we catch any issues as early as possible, to avoid any major (and expensive) remedial work.
You do! All our dentists deliver the highest possible standard of care, but we want to make sure our patients feel as comfortable as possible. You can request to see a male or female dentist, and we can also help you to choose one based on the type of experience you prefer and their areas of expertise.
A dental hygiene appointment is great for keeping your gums healthy and giving your teeth a thorough, deep clean. Our dental hygienist will assess the health of your gums and check for plaque build-up and gum disease, and usually carry out a deep clean and scale to remove plaque, and end the appointment with a polish.
Yes, for the health and safety of all our staff and patients, it’s really important that you wear a face mask when you’re inside the practice. Unless you can provide valid proof of exemption, you won’t be able to enter our practices or attend your appointment without a face mask. Once your appointment has started, your dentist or dental nurse will let you know when you can remove your mask for treatment.
As above, you need to wear a face mask when you’re inside our practices, unless you’ve been told otherwise. To keep our staff and other patients safe, your appointment could be deferred at short notice if you visit the practice with ANY cold or flu symptoms, or have recently been exposed to Covid-19. Our practice is always kept exceptionally clean and sterile, so you can rest assured that your health is in great hands with us.
Our practices in Kings Cross, Euston, and Gray’s Inn offer all the general and cosmetic dental treatments you need. Contact us with any questions you have, or book an appointment online today.
