Darsh Patel is a Specialist Orthodontist and a Director of SmartDontics, a specialist orthodontic practice in Surbiton, Surrey.
Darsh’s passion is to work smarter and not harder. With the use of technology and workflows, his aim is to provide a service level that is five-star with an emphasis on reducing clinical and travel time for the orthodontist and patient respectively.
Darsh graduated in 1998 from Manchester University. He moved to Birmingham to study his specialist membership in orthodontics (Morth) before heading home to London to set up a private “squat” orthodontic practice in 2009.
He has been a recipient of multiple awards both clinical and business throughout his career.
Darsh has a passion for teaching and education and regularly lectures in the field of orthodontics both nationally and internationally. He is a member of many KOL groups and regularly shares his experience and expertise with other like-minded orthodontists.
Darsh’s extensive knowledge and skills enable him to treat and rectify even the most severe and demanding orthodontic problems where he can individually design each treatment plan to create that unique smile.
With the advent of remote monitoring and AI technology, Darsh has seen a paradigm shift of what orthodontic care will look like in the future.
Orthodontics is the most prestigious job in dentistry. It is a wonderful combination of art, biology and physics. I was fascinated by the mechanisms and possibilities of tooth movement during my time training as a dentist, and this led me to specialise in orthodontics at the Royal College Of Surgeons England.
Twelve years after first starting dental school and completing my Masters training, I graduated as a Specialist Orthodontist and I have never regretted any of the years of learning I have done. So much so, I am still passionate about continuing to learn and develop new techniques.
The amazing smile transformations that we achieve by not just straightening teeth but transforming the entire harmony of the face and smile.
We treat each and every patient as we would like to be treated ourselves; providing the best service, results and treatment options that are customised to each patient’s individual needs.
We utilise the best international cross infection controls, as well as premium-quality orthodontic materials and braces (both visible and invisible).
We focus on providing treatment speed but never compromising on treatment quality. We are actively involved in training other orthodontists (worldwide) in using the best brace systems and modern techniques for their patients.
We are leaders in the fields of Damon® braces, facial orthodontics and Incognito™™ lingual braces. To this end, we provide our patients with the very best possible results and all round experience from our world class team.
I keep changing my mind with what I would be doing as I cannot think of anything better. Perhaps my next choice would be a top lawyer, as my favourite TV show is Suits!

Dr Darsh Patel has years of experience shaping stunning smiles, and can treat even complex orthodontic issues with discreet methods. Could you be his next success story?
