The Deepcar Dental Care team. Clinicians you can name, and a nurse who’s been here 28 years.

Dr Ibraheem Ijaz is the Founder, Principal Dentist and Practice Owner of Deepcar Dental Care. He leads the practice with a clear clinical philosophy: dentistry should be calm, transparent, and built around long-term outcomes rather than rushed decisions.

With a strong academic foundation from the University of Leeds and advanced postgraduate training in implant, restorative and aesthetic dentistry, Dr Ijaz combines evidence-based clinical precision with a reassuring, patient-centred approach. His work is guided by clarity, predictability and empathy, particularly for patients who feel anxious or uncertain about dental treatment.

Clinical focus and expertise

• Dental implants and tooth replacement, from single implants to complex full-arch cases. Over 200 implants placed and restored since 2022, working with Neodent, Straumann, Dentium, Nobel Biocare and Sweden & Martina systems.
• Advanced restorative dentistry, including crowns, bridges and functional bite management
• Aesthetic dentistry using conservative, natural-looking techniques
• Digital dentistry, incorporating CBCT diagnostics and precision-led workflows
• Emergency and pain-relief care, with same-day assessment and stabilisation. Dr Ijaz personally answers the practice’s 24-hour emergency line.

Patients consistently describe Dr Ijaz as calm, thorough and approachable. He takes time to explain findings clearly, discuss options honestly, and prioritise durable outcomes over short-term fixes.

Founder’s vision

Since becoming Practice Owner in 2025, Dr Ijaz has shaped Deepcar Dental Care into a practice rooted in trust, clinical excellence and community values. His aim is to deliver dentistry that patients understand, feel comfortable with, and can rely on long term, supported by advanced training, modern technology and clear clinical systems. He continues surgical training under internationally recognised implant clinicians in Spain and Brazil.

George graduated from the University of Sheffield in 2020 after training at the Charles Clifford Dental School. He is passionate about helping patients achieve outcomes that suit their individual needs and takes time to translate concerns into clear, tailored treatment plans.

He has a particular strength in supporting dentally anxious patients, creating a calm and reassuring environment for both consultations and treatment. Alongside general dentistry, George focuses on minimally invasive dentistry and smile enhancements such as tooth whitening. He also has a special interest in sports dentistry and works regularly with international athletes.

George is committed to ongoing professional development and is currently completing a Postgraduate Diploma in Advanced Aesthetic & Restorative Dentistry in London. Outside the practice, he enjoys running, hockey and squash, and is a Level 2 qualified hockey coach in Sheffield.

Nik graduated from the University of Sheffield in 2003 and has remained strongly committed to continuous professional development throughout his career. He believes that precision, accuracy and attention to detail are the foundations of high-quality private dental care.

A key element of Nik’s clinical approach is the use of advanced magnification with a dental microscope, allowing enhanced visibility and control, particularly valuable in complex cases. In 2010 he completed a postgraduate certificate in root canal treatment, enabling him to manage challenging endodontic procedures with confidence and care. In recognition of his clinical standards, he became a full member of the College of General Dental Practitioners (MCGDent) in 2012.

Patients value Nik for his calm, methodical manner and clear explanations, helping them feel informed and reassured throughout treatment. Outside the surgery, Nik enjoys snowboarding, running in the Peak District and photography.

Mohammed Anabtawi joins Dr Ijaz as a second clinician on the practice’s most complex implant and surgical cases, including significant bone grafting and medically complex patients. Dr Ijaz has trained alongside him, and his involvement means that the cases other practices refer to hospital can usually be completed here, in one familiar location, with the same team throughout.

Laura is a highly experienced dental nurse with 28 years of service at the practice. Her long-standing commitment reflects her dedication to patient care and support for the wider team.

She values the variety that dentistry brings and is especially passionate about ensuring every patient feels cared for and at ease during their visit. Laura is known for her reliability, compassion and supportive nature. Outside the surgery, she is a devoted mum to four children, cares for three dogs, and is always there for family and friends.

Ellie is a trainee dental nurse currently completing her dental nurse apprenticeship at Deepcar Dental Care. She is dedicated to learning, supporting the clinical team, and helping deliver a positive, caring experience for every patient. Outside of work, Ellie enjoys spending time with family and friends, travelling, and staying active at the gym.
