Sam Jethwa has come a long way since a mishap with a paperclip first led him to consider a career in dentistry.
This week, he chats with Payman about his journey from VT in Cornwall under the stewardship of an unusually accommodating principal to his current role of vice president of the BACD.
Sam also reveals the ‘a-ha’ insights on occlusion that transformed his practice and why he is vocal about dental tourism.
