Oladapo Olotu

GDC Registration : 84579 – Role : Dentist

I am the Principal Dentist at Dental 397 Exeter.

I qualified as a Dentist in 1999 and I have lived in Exeter since 2002. Prior to owning Dental 397, I had worked in dental practices in Taunton, Tiverton and most recently, Cullompton.

I achieved a Diploma of Membership of the Joint Dental Faculties with the Royal College of Surgeons England in 2009. I am highly committed to postgraduate education.

I am currently doing a Masters in Dental Implants program at the Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany. It is very important to me that my patients are cared for, always provided with up-to-date treatment choices and have access to the most modern dental treatments available.

I am married with 3 daughters and comfortable in the presence of all things pink!

In my spare time, I enjoy swimming, reading Psychologies Magazine and watching TED seminars.

Rachel More

GDC Registration : 252039 Role: Dental Hygienist and Therapist

I qualified as a Dental Hygienist and Therapist with distinction at the University of Sheffield in 2014 and then successfully completed the highly competitive Therapist Foundation Training program with the Oxford and Wessex Deanery.

I have since gained a wealth of experience in non-surgical periodontal therapy (treatment of gum disease), restorative treatment for adults and children as well as cosmetic treatments, including teeth whitening.

I am passionate about helping patients achieve optimal oral health and promoting a healthy lifestyle. I am also a qualified Nutritional Therapist and finds the links between nutrition and oral health fascinating.

In the future, I would like to further my skills in implant maintenance and explore hypnotherapy techniques in dental practice.

Outside of dentistry, I enjoys spending time with my husband, Nick and my son, Ben, cycling, practicing yoga and walking along the beach with my dog, Daisy.
