Meet our Team at Dale Road Dental Practice

Catarina left sunny Lisbon in 2010 to move to the UK and join our practice on the edge of the Peak District, the place she now calls home. She is often described as calm and friendly, which puts even the most nervous patients at ease. She is passionate about giving people the confidence to smile more and ultimately to make them happier. Since graduating in 2007, Catarina has developed a special interest in orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry, which motivated her to pursue further studies and gain expertise in these fields. In her spare time, Catarina loves spending time outdoors with her family and friends; she also enjoys playing tennis!

Emanuel graduated from Aristotle University of Thessoloniki, Greece, in 1996. He thrives on creating a friendly and caring relationship with all patients, ensuring they receive the highest standard of patient care throughout their treatment journey.

He is a firm believer in continual professional development; he has a special interest in minor oral surgery and is currently working towards a diploma. He has been using a Piezo and surgical handpiece with irrigation to remove mesio-angular impacted wisdom teeth, retained roots, and other minor oral surgery procedures.

These procedures are of varying complexity and difficulty; he is happy to have a discussion around management options. He can carry out orthodontic treatments using ClearCorrect aligners. Away from dentistry, Emanuel enjoys travelling abroad and cycling.
