Dr Sesh Rao
  Dr Sesh Rao
P BDS MDS FDSRCS (Edin)
Principal Dentist
  • READ MORE

    I’m Dr. Sesh Rao, and I took over as the owner of Stotfold Dental Clinic in 2011, after the retirement of Dr. Andi, who had a successful career here. I graduated as a dentist in India in 1994 and pursued postgraduate training in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in 1999. I moved to England in 2000 and completed my fellowship in Dental Surgery (FDCRCS) from the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh the same year.  

    I have a special interest in replacing missing teeth with dental implants, as well as cosmetic dentistry. I’m also passionate about sedation techniques to help anxious patients feel at ease. I attend courses regularly to stay ahead of advancements in the field and provide my patients with the best, most up-to-date care.  

    If you'd like to contact me directly, feel free to email me at saabestates@gmail.com.

Dentist

    I’m Dr. Sanaya, and I’m passionate about providing high-quality dental care to patients of all ages. I graduated in India in 2011 and moved to the UK, where I passed my registration exam in 2014. Since then, I’ve been working in mixed practice and gaining experience in all areas of dentistry.  

    I believe in creating a comfortable, welcoming environment for every patient and strive to make each visit a positive experience. Whether it’s preventive care, restorative treatments, cosmetic procedures, or emergency services, I’m dedicated to delivering the highest standard of care.  

    In addition to general dentistry, I’m a provider of clear aligners through 32Co and Invisalign.  

    Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my three young kids, watching movies, dancing, and indulging in my love for food.

Dentist 

  • READ MORE

    I graduated in dentistry (BDS) from King’s College London in 2000 and started my career in the West Midlands, where I lived and worked until moving to Shefford Dental Clinic.  

    Since graduating, I obtained a post-graduate diploma (MFGDP) from the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and my keen interest in treating nervous patients led me to pursue a further diploma in Conscious Sedation (DipSed) from King’s College in 2012. With almost 20 years of experience in sedation, I can also treat anxious patients without sedation due to my natural rapport.  

    In my free time, I love snowboarding in the French and Swiss Alps, and I’ve also enjoyed the scenery in Whistler and Lake Tahoe. I now live in Bedfordshire with my husband and three children, enjoying long walks and bike rides in the countryside.  

    I’m a devout Catholic and try to live out the teachings of Jesus Christ in both my work and home life. I’m eternally grateful for all the blessings in my career and personal life.
