The clinical directors, Amiras and Dipali, are a husband-and-wife team that has settled in Cambridgeshire, after moving up from London. They met at university and fell in love not just with each other, but with the culture and the countryside of Cambridge. They spent ten years building up practices in the rural towns of March and Littleport. Then Dipali discovered a passion for interior design, far greater than the one she had for dentistry, and Amiras decided to indulge both her passion and his own ambition by purchasing Cambridge Dental and letting her talents for décor loose on it. They wanted to create something truly unique and wonderful, break down the misconception that the dentist is a difficult experience for most people. At the very heart of this vision, however, is the belief that the team is everything. They have brought together a team of skilled, talented, and passionate clinicians and staff that all share their vision. They are a family and they want their patients to feel a part of that.

Amiras graduated in 2007 in from King’s College London. After completing his postgraduate training in Essex, he spent time as a SHO in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in hospital. Soon after, he took ownership of both March Dental Surgery and Littleport Dental Surgery. His ambition was to create a working environment that was not just the best for his patients but also his team, and he believed he could only do this if he was in a position to influence and make change.
His skillset lies in general dentistry, with a special interest in oral surgery and the management of patients with oral cancers. He is also an Educational Supervisor for the East of England Deanery, and has mentored many young dentists as they commence their professional journeys. As Clinical Director and Lead Clinician at his 3 practices, he does practice some general dentistry, but the bulk of his time is spent in the management of his practices. Amiras places great value on ongoing professional development, and encourages his team of about 20 clinicians to do the same. He considers it an important component of his successes within dentistry, alongside a forward-thinking and innovative approach to business development.
Outside of work, he is father to three young girls, and is happiest when he is teaching them to ride their bike or learn Spanish. His wife, and business partner, Dipali is a big support and source of inspiration to him, and together they have worked hard to build their practices and their family. He is also extremely active, cycling being one of his favourite activities.

Outside of dentistry, she is extremely passionate about interior design and has put her talents to good use not just in their family home, but also in the premises at Cambridge Dental. She wanted to create an environment that was not only calm, but eclectic and charming, so that the patients are made to feel like they are somewhere truly special.
Outside of work, apart from decorating, she loves spending time with her three daughters and husband, who has always been her biggest champion. She recently took up running, but only to compensate for her love of eating. She is proud to count everyone who works with her as friends, and draws her strength from the wonderful team and family around her.
