Known to friends and colleagues as George, Pynadath George is a giant of implant dentistry.
In the first instalment of a two-part series, George reveals how he considered careers in medicine or the church before considering implant dentistry.
He also chats about how choosing the right patients is vital to surgical success and lets us in on a unique patient evaluation workflow.
George also discusses the value of MScs and doctorates and why he’s learned to hold his tongue when seeing implant cases on social media.
Enjoy!
