🦷MEET OUR TEAM🦷

We are delighted to welcome Vera Da Silva to our team!

In 2019, she relocated to Scotland, where she has fully embraced both the local culture and unpredictable weather!

Vera’s expertise lies with full mouth rehabilitation, and composite bonding is a particular area of interest. She is known for her attention to detail, gentle approach, and commitment to delivering beautiful, natural-looking smiles. Her work can be viewed at drveradasilva.

Outside of the clinic, Vera enjoys exploring the great outdoors, hiking, and starting her day with a cold shower for an energy boost.

Denplan are donating up to £150,000 to the Turkey-Syria Earthquake by match funding their customer and colleagues.

We've all seen the devastating impact the earthquakes have had in southern Turkey and north-west Syria.

Over 35,000 people have died, with thousands more injured. Hospitals, schools and homes collapsed in the middle of the night, affecting 17 million people, with many in urgent need of shelter, food and medical aid. The situation is made even more life-threatening due to the freezing conditions.

Together, we’re hoping to raise funds and donate up to £150,000 to the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal. This will be done by matching donations made by customers and corporate clients, professionals, partners, colleagues, and friends and family, up to £75,000.
