Associate Dentist - Dr Si Xing Li BDS MFDS Part 1 - GDC 278355
Si joined the team in October 2020. Having lived in Enfield, London, for most of his life, he then studied at and graduated from Cardiff University, Wales, in 2018, with a bachelor’s in dental surgery, before doing his one-year postgraduate training at a practice near St Andrews and the Dental Institute in Edinburgh, Scotland. Si has treated a variety of patients from all walks of life and prides himself as a caring dentist, always taking the time to build a good rapport with his patients, making them feel comfortable, and explaining everything clearly and in an easy-to-understand manner. Si has a special interest in cosmetic composite bonding and gets immense satisfaction from producing visually pleasing and long-lasting results for his patients. Another area of interest to him is paediatric dentistry where he particularly enjoys helping kids and young adults learn the importance of taking care of their oral health.

Outside of dentistry, Si enjoys travelling and catching up with friends, a nice boardgame, computer gaming, and playing racquet sports such as squash and badminton.
