He has also recently completed courses in advanced smile design held by the country's leading dentists in the field.
Nash has a special interest in general dentistry, endodontics, restorative dentistry, full mouth reconstruction and sedation for nervous patients. He particularly enjoys providing cosmetic treatments such as smile design where the results can be life changing and improve patients’ confidence.
Outside dentistry, he enjoys spending any spare time with his wife and two young children. He likes to keep fit by running and he is a committee member for the Ashford Asian Society.
