Magdalena Julia Laskowska

Principal Dentist
GDC: 85287

Magdalena graduated in 1992 from the Faculty of Dentistry at the Medical University of Warsaw. She was also the owner of Harwood Dental Practice for 11 years, and since 2017, a partner.

Magdalena is a general dentist with a special interest in Bioclear method of restorations (in which white composite material is wrapped around a tooth using special, technologically advanced mylar matrices. Composite is heated to properly form a fully functional, beautiful tooth). She completed all levels of Bioclear training, including the advanced level at The Bioclear Learning Center in Seattle, USA. Magdalena also has a special interest and 10 years of experience in extensive Fibredontics – glassfibre reinforced direct restorations: splints, bridges. Particularly helpful for patients suffering from periodontal disease. Minimally invasive, this technique, in many cases, allows to use patient’s own teeth as part of the bridge, allowing for the most natural looking result.

In her own time, Magdalena enjoys walks on the moors, physical activity and regular training. Since 2015, she has been actively involved in the SmileStar charity, which provides free dental care to ex Royal Marines in the UK and local communities abroad.  With SmileStar, she has volunteered for 5 trips abroad – 3 to Kenya and 2 to India.
