Imi is our Practice Principal, Implant & Award Winning dentist having won the UK Clinical Dentistry Awards from 2021-2024.
Imi stands at the forefront of modern implant dentistry, combining surgical excellence with an innovative approach to dental education. His journey in dentistry began at Bristol University, where he distinguished himself by earning prestigious awards in both Periodontology (gum management) and Prosthetics (tooth replacement) before graduating in 2006.
Following his undergraduate training, Imi refined his surgical expertise through posts at Bristol Dental Hospital and Royal United Hospital Bath’s Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. His exceptional skills were recognised with the Fellowship in Dental Surgery from the Royal College of Surgeons in 2009, marking the beginning of what would become a remarkable career in advanced dentistry.
Since completing his first implant cases in 2010, Imran has pursued excellence through continuous advancement, earning a Master’s degree with Distinction in Implantology in 2014. His commitment to mastering cutting-edge techniques led him to complete an Advanced Surgical Fellowship under the renowned Professor Urban at the Bone Regeneration Institute in 2018. This specialised training has enabled him to become a leader in innovative implant, bone and soft tissue procedures.
Today, Imi’s expertise draws referrals from across the United Kingdom & overseas for complex cases requiring advanced implant treatment, bone grafting, and sinus grafting surgery. His reputation for achieving predictable results in even the most challenging cases has established him as a trusted name in the field.
As a key opinion leader for BioHorizons Camlog UK, Imran is passionate about sharing his knowledge and expertise with other dentists. He has developed a comprehensive educational platform (www.ap15c.com) that includes hands-on training and mentoring to other dentists; and he regularly lectures both in the UK and internationally. His teaching methods have gained such recognition that 2024 saw the successful launch of his courses in the United States, with plans for further expansion in the coming years.
At the heart of Imi’s practice is an unwavering commitment to meeting patient expectations through precise, predictable, and pain-free dentistry.
When not advancing the field of dentistry, Imi embraces life as a father of three—Luca, Theo, and Sophia —sharing their passion for sports and school activities. He maintains an active lifestyle, sharing his dental expertise with a growing social media following (@driminasser), and enjoys quality time with his wife Kristina. He looks forward to welcoming you to Cheltenham & Cotswold Dental.
