Dr. Max (Mayur) Patel

B.D.S (Kings College London. UK)
Graduate Diploma Clinical Dental (IV Sedation & Pain Control) (University of Sydney)

Born in 1972, Max was raised in England. He graduated from Kings College, University of London in 1995. He gained further qualifications in the USA and then worked in general practice in England. He became the Principal Dental Surgeon of The Wigmore Dental Clinic, UK in 1999. He successfully ran this busy three dentist practice for 10 years, gaining vast experience in general dentistry.

He has advanced training in Intravenous Sedation, Cosmetic Dentistry, Implants, Bone grafting, Sinus lifts, Oral Surgery and Invisalign. All of these multi-skills enabled him to be able to look after and be solely responsible for his patients.

Dr. Max has more than 25 years worth of experience and is still excited by the skilled provision of “smile makeovers” and the positively life changing work he has completed for many patients.

His true passion, however, is caring for the anxious or phobic patient. In particular, he relishes looking after the patients who have avoided seeing the dentist for many years.

Dr. Max loves showing these nervous patients that painless and comfortable dentistry is available in his experienced care. He enjoys, “converting phobic patients into confident, anxiety-free patients, who almost look forward to visiting us!”

Max is still a boy at heart and loves his gadgets. So be prepared to be introduced to a range of new technological gizmos designed to make advanced dentistry simple and fun for everyone.

Outside Dentistry

Outside of dentistry he is a self-confessed sports nut! Golf is a game that has consumed Max since the age of 30. He is a member at the Victoria Golf club, but wistfully admits that his children are better golfers than him. He also regularly plays squash. Max is a lifelong Liverpool FC fan. However, living in Melbourne he has had to come to terms with the new football game, AFL. He backs the St Kilda Saints, but still struggles with the lack of an “offside” rule!

He is happily married, with two daughters. Max and his family migrated to Melbourne in 2008.

He is quite a philosophical character and shares this gem with us. “Love the job you do, and you never have to work again!” He feels that he has achieved this dream with his dentistry, and is enjoying providing excellent care in his wonderful and new premises.
