Dr Stefan Ciapryna

Specialist in Endodontics

Dr Stefan Ciapryna specialises in advanced endodontic treatments, including complex root canal therapies and microscopic endodontic surgery, applying the latest techniques to deliver precise and minimally invasive care.

In addition to his expertise in endodontics, Dr Ciapryna has a special interest in restorative and aesthetic dentistry, having worked across various practices in London and the South of England. He frequently handles restorative and prosthodontic cases, rehabilitating full-mouth conditions and providing high-quality aesthetic treatments. His experience also extends to maxillofacial surgery, sedation dentistry, and paediatric care, showcasing his versatility and commitment to comprehensive patient care.

Stefan initially graduated from the world-renowned King’s College London University and after several years of undertaking training in sedation and paediatric dentistry, maxillofacial surgery and diplomas in restorative dentistry, he returned to his Alma Mater to undertake a 4-year specialist training programme. He obtained dual distinction degrees as a Member of Restorative Dentistry (MEndo) and Endodontist (MClinDent Endodontology) and was invited to continue as a specialist teacher for the institute where he lectures to this current day.

Stefan travels to various practices all over London and the south of England as a Specialist Endodontist and Restorative dentist, providing specialist endodontic treatment as well as taking on restorative and prosthodontic referrals where he rehabilitates the whole mouth. He also provides the highest standard of aesthetic dentistry to patients. Stefan uses only the most modern treatments and uses an endodontic microscope and 3D CT scanning to give him advanced precision in all his endodontic and restorative work which includes microscopic surgeries.

He teaches these techniques in postgraduate and master’s courses and takes on referrals from other endodontists as well as general dentists.

Stefan is passionate about education and this can be seen in his teaching, both lecturing and attending international conferences, including providing continual professional development evenings for dentists. He is proud to represent Guy’s Dental Hospital which is his NHS base and is the largest postgraduate dental institute in the world and number one ranked in Europe, if not the world.

Stefan takes great pride in his meticulous work, always aiming for perfection. He applies the gold standard techniques to his treatment and ensures the treatment he provides is the most advanced in the field of worldwide Endodontics. His patients consistently appreciate his gentle and compassionate approach.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I honestly cannot recommend Professor Christian Mehl and his wonderful team at Wimpole Street Dental Clinic highly enough!

The standard of expertise and professionalism is absolutely exceptional, but what really makes this practice so special is the genuine kindness, care and personal attention you receive.

There's something rather wonderful and almost old-fashioned about the way they look after you. You feel genuinely cared for as an individual, never just another patient.

Dr Mehl and his team have gone above and beyond for me, particularly when I really needed their help, and I cannot express how grateful I am.

Choosing this practice has been one of the very best decisions I've made for my dental health. An absolutely exceptional team of people, and I couldn't recommend them more wholeheartedly!

Thank you!

I'm a very particular patient and take great care in choosing a dentist, so I don't give praise lightly. The Wimpole Street Dental Clinic has exceeded my expectations on every count.

The specialists are highly skilled and clearly at the top of their field, yet completely approachable. They explain everything as the procedure is happening, so you always know what's being done and why. That makes a real difference to how relaxed you feel in the chair.

The front desk team were amazing too: warm, efficient and genuinely helpful. It's rare to find this level of expertise combined with such attentive patient care. Thank you to the whole team. Highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend this dental practice highly enough. Professor Mehl has provided an exceptional standard of care and professionalism, and I have been genuinely impressed by both his expertise and his approach to patient care.

He is exceptionally kind, patient and reassuring, and completely non-judgemental. I have never felt embarrassed or uncomfortable discussing my dental hygiene, and he has always made me feel at ease. His positive and compassionate manner immediately puts you at ease, even if you are someone who feels anxious about dental treatment.

What I particularly appreciate is the personal level of care he provides. He remembers me personally, greets me when I arrive and genuinely takes an interest in me as a patient. This makes such a difference and is something I have rarely experienced elsewhere.

I am currently saving towards an implant, and Professor Mehl went above and beyond by building a temporary tooth. I was incredibly touched by this gesture and it is a wonderful example of the kindness and consideration he shows his patients.

He is also exceptionally skilled, even the injections were completely painless, which is something I have never experienced with another dentist!

I would also like to mention Jennifer (dental therapist) who is absolutely wonderful. She gave me an incredibly thorough deep clean, yet somehow managed to make the entire experience completely comfortable and pain-free. She did an exceptional job, and I was so impressed with the care and attention to detail she showed throughout. Jennifer is also incredibly warm and personable, her smile genuinely brightens the room. Like Professor Mehl, she remembers me personally, which makes every visit feel welcoming and reassuring rather than clinical.

I am extremely grateful for the care I have received from the whole team. Professor Mehl and Jennifer combine exceptional professionalism and expertise with genuine kindness and compassion. It is clear that they truly care about their patients, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this practice to anyone looking for outstanding dental care.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was on vacation in London, and a crown came off during my first full day there.  I was literally 4,000 miles from home, and, as luck would have it, I was near the Wimpole Street Dental Clinic. The receptionist could see the panic on my face when I walked through the door.  He calmed me down by assuring me that he would make sure I got fixed up right away.  Soon after, I saw the dentist.  He was excellent.  Fixed me up in no time.  I was able to enjoy the rest of my bucket-list trip without worrying about my teeth!  I can't thank them enough!  If you have dental needs, I highly recommend stopping in!  Here's a pic of me with the doc and his staff after they fixed my crown—such a great group of people.
