Meet our Team at Milehouse Dental Practice

Awaz is an award-winning dentist with a special interest in endodontics (root canal treatment). She graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2015 and accepts all referrals for root canals and re-root treatment. She also provides Invisalign Go, Six Month Smiles, and Clear Correct orthodontic treatments in addition to composite bonding treatments. She is passionate about saving natural teeth so they don't need to be extracted. She has been a finalist for multiple awards for the Young Dentist of the Year. She is actively involved in research in regenerative endodontics, which is an exciting new advancement in dentistry. She has published journal articles in the British Dental Journal and Dentistry Magazine and has carried out extensive training, including being a member of the Royal College of Surgeons of Glasgow. She has a deep enthusiasm for teaching and was awarded a distinction in her PG Cert in clinical education. She is a course leader to trainee dentists teaching hands-on study days in endodontics and is a national speaker in root canal treatment. She is also an active member of Dentaid, where she volunteers to provide emergency dental care for the deprived members of the community. She is trilingual and can speak Arabic, English, and the Kurdish language.

I qualified as a dentist in 2019 from Universidad Europea in Valencia Spain with a Distinction.

I started working at Milehouse Dental Practice in late 2019 until July 2023.

In July 2023 I moved away to undergo training in oral and maxillofacial medicine at Hull Royal Infirmary.

In January 2024 I re-joined Milehouse Dental Practice as an NHS dentist.

I enjoy all aspects of dentistry especially oral surgery and restorative work.

She has a strong interest in implant dentistry. Marwa has completed several postgraduate certifications in implant dentistry, including the Dentale advanced implant course in 2021. Additionally, she holds certification in cosmetic teeth straightening (Invisalign® Go).

Outside of work, Marwa enjoys spending time with her family, travelling, craft work, and swimming.

Odessa is known for putting patients at ease and motivating them to improve their oral health. She believes in integrated treatment planning to achieve the best results possible, with a primary focus on periodontal treatment.

Dr Reem Al-Yamoor is a general dentist who qualified from the University of Mosul, Iraq, in 2005.

She is a member of the Royal Colleges of Surgeons of England and Edinburgh. As well as a member of the British Dental Academy.

Furthermore, Dr Al-Yamoor is a specialist with an interest in endodontology (root canal filling). She has completed complex root canal cases over many years, such as a blocked canal (sclerosis), root curvature, re-treatment of a previous root canal, and removal of fractured files and instruments that cannot be treated locally or conventionally.

Successfully, this field led her to complete a master’s degree in the science of endodontology, which was achieved at a distinction level from the University of Chester, which in turn allowed her to become a member of the British Endodontic Society for further training and education.

Dr Al-Yamoor believes that the best gap replacement option after tooth extraction is an implant; for this reason, she has successfully completed her postgraduate training in oral implants from the British Academy of Implant and Restorative Dentistry in Leeds.

Additionally, Dr Al-Yamoor is an internationally published dentist, having research work published in one of the American and Canadian journals, helping her colleagues’ education and knowledge in endodontology.

Love to do swimming for long distances, play guitar and travel to explore the world with her beloved people.
