Dr Ryan Olley
Senior Clinical Lecturer in Restorative Dentistry
Overview
I am a Dentist, Specialist in Prosthodontics (Fixed, Removable and Implant), Senior Lecturer and Honorary Consultant in Restorative Dentistry. I completed specialist clinical training in Restorative Dentistry and Prosthodontics with Distinction.
I have been teaching for over 15 years. I also undertake research and have experience of working within industry.
I have received several awards including National and International 1st Prizes, Grants and Publications for Tissue Research and Developmental Biology, Clinical Trials and Public Health. I have lectured internationally.
I undertook extensive Research to improve Oral and Dental Health, including in Craniofacial Science and Tooth Tissue Regeneration, Public Health and Clinical Trials at King's College London. I continue to undertake multiple further collaborative Clinical and Scientific studies. An ongoing project is dental management of an Ageing population.
I completed my clinical PhD within two years in Tooth Wear and Dentine Hypersensitivity. I have particular expertise in Tooth Wear and have continued research and clinical work on Tooth Wear for over 13 years.
I have written over 39 publications and books.
I am also a RC Psychiatry accredited Positive Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioner.
