Kaival Patel how the Kana Dental Academy is tailored to transform careers in aesthetic and restorative dentistry.
Dentistry doesn’t stand still, and neither should we! That’s where The Kana Dental Academy comes in – a game-changer for dental professionals looking to up their game in aesthetic and restorative dentistry.
While we started with postgraduate dentists in mind, we’re expanding fast, with plans for courses tailored to dental therapists, the business-savvy side of dentistry, and even dental nurses and treatment coordinators.
Passion, progression, and a hint of personality
Here’s the thing: I’m not a teacher at the academy (trust me, you’re better off with the experts!). But I’ve always had a dream of creating a space where dental professionals could learn, grow, and thrive — without the hassle of trekking to the farthest reaches of the country.
Think of it as a judgement-free zone where you’re encouraged to ask, ‘What if…?’ and leave feeling inspired and confident in your craft.
Our not-so-secret recipe: smaller classes, bigger impact
Let’s talk about what makes us stand out. First, we keep our cohort sizes small. Why? Because no one learns well in a crowd.
Here, you’ll get personal attention, tailored guidance, and the chance to really dig into the material. It’s like having your own mentor on hand!
Oh, and did I mention the hands-on learning? You’ll be rolling up your sleeves and trying out techniques in a supportive environment.
The best in the biz
At Kana Dental Academy, we don’t settle for ‘good enough.’ We’ve scoured the UK for the best speakers and educators who know their stuff and love sharing it.
Every course is led by top-tier experts who make complex techniques feel like second nature. You’ll leave with knowledge you can actually use.
Location, location, location
Why Milton Keynes? Because it’s the perfect spot – easy to get to, with great transport links, and packed with fantastic food options to keep you fuelled during those intense learning days.
We’re proud to offer a welcoming, modern environment that’s as convenient as it is inspiring.
Designed for postgraduates, built for success
Our flagship courses are tailored to postgraduate dentists itching to take their skills to the next level. Think advanced techniques, cutting-edge materials, and the latest tech that’s shaking up the industry.
With workshops, live demos, and real-world case studies, you’ll get the tools (and the confidence) to tackle anything.
Coming soon: big plans for dental therapists
Why stop with dentists? We’re gearing up to launch courses for dental therapists, helping them expand their skill sets and take on more advanced procedures.
It’s all about empowering every member of the dental team to deliver top-notch care and keep patients smiling.
Let’s talk business
For those running a dental practice, it isn’t just about the clinical side – you’ve got understand the business side too. That’s why we’re developing courses to demystify practice management, from financial planning and marketing to patient relationships.
We’ll help you master the business side so you can focus on what you do best: dentistry.
Staying ahead of the curve
Dentistry moves fast, and we’re keeping up with the latest trends and technologies so you don’t have to. All our courses are built on solid evidence-based practices, ensuring you’re learning techniques that actually work.
And because we’re always looking ahead, you can trust us to keep our teaching fresh and relevant.
A community that’s got your back
Forget stiff, formal training. The Kana Dental Academy is all about building a friendly, collaborative community.
Here, you’ll find peers and mentors who’ve got your back, whether you’re looking to swap tips, share experiences, or just ask a burning question without fear of judgement. We’re all in this together.
The bottom line
The Kana Dental Academy isn’t just a place to learn – it’s where careers take off. Whether you’re a dentist, business owner or therapist, we’re here to help you level up your skills and achieve your professional dreams.
With top educators, hands-on training, smaller, tailored cohorts, and a community that’s as supportive as it is skilled, you’ll leave feeling ready to take on the world. Add to that the unbeatable location and delicious food, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for a learning experience that’s as enriching as it is enjoyable.
Next steps
Please forgive the pitch, but from someone who has always loved being in the background, I have recently taken the stance that if you believe in something and you feel it would genuinely help others – then you should shout out about it from the rafters!
For anyone interested in joining our March 2025 cohort for the aesthetic and restorative diploma, ping me an email on [email protected] and put ‘UPSKILL’ in the subject line – I would be happy to arrange a chat to ensure it’s the right thing for you.
If you would like to be a part of our first business and management group that will kick off later in the year, then put ‘SUCCEED’ in the subject line. We are looking for a small number of motivated individuals who would be happy to be our pioneers, and you will receive a great rate to match!
Finally, for any therapists looking to take their career to the next level, we will be holding a taster day with a very special speaker! If you would like to know more simply put ‘GROWTH’ in the subject line.
2025 is the year for you! Take that next step!
