Dr Ben Cross - Specialist Orthodontist

Ben qualified as a dentist from the University of Wales, College of Medicine in 2002 and spent 15 happy years as a dentist in the British Army. During this time, he spent time working in the UK, Germany, Africa, Iraq, Cyprus and Gibraltar. After a year working as a Senior House Officer in the maxillofacial surgery department in Portsmouth, he was selected to undertake 3 years further specialist training in orthodontics. This culminated in him returning to Wales to qualify with distinction from Cardiff in 2011 and being accepted on to the GDC specialist list for orthodontics.

He has extensive experience of treating both adults and children and has spent his career as an orthodontist working with other specialists to enhance patients’ smiles and confidence. He is able to offer several aesthetic orthodontic options including the WIN lingual appliance, Invisalign aligners and tooth coloured brackets. His focus during treatment is to determine a patient’s dental desires and to address each of these needs individually.

Ben is a keen cyclist and lives a contented life with his wife and two children in the countryside near Bristol.
