Adrian Watts – Bristol Dental Specialists
Specialist in Restorative Dentistry | Implant Surgeon | Partner
BDS (London), MRD RCS (Eng), FDS RCS (Eng), FDS (Restorative Dentistry) RCS (Eng), FFD RCS (Irel)
GDC No. 63380
Adrian Watts is a highly experienced restorative dentist and implant surgeon, combining extensive hospital work with private practice to deliver exceptional care. Since graduating from Guy’s Hospital, University of London, in 1988, Adrian has built a career that bridges both clinical excellence and specialist education.
He began his Consultant and Specialist training at Bristol Dental Hospital in 1995 and, in 2001, was awarded an International Team for Implantology Scholarship, which allowed him to study and teach implant dentistry at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. This advanced training equips him with the ability to quickly assess complex dental conditions and clearly communicate diagnoses and treatment options to patients.
In 2003, Adrian returned to the UK and became principal of his own specialist referral practice in Clifton, which he sold in 2014 to co-found Bristol Dental Specialists. Alongside his specialist practice, Adrian has served as a part-time NHS Consultant at Cardiff Dental Hospital for ten years, leading the implant dentistry module in a specialist training program. From September 2019, he continues as a part-time NHS Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton while practicing at Bristol Dental Specialists. He also teaches and mentors dentists through the Bristol Dental Academy, offering specialist lectures and training.
Adrian is registered with the General Dental Council as a specialist in Restorative Dentistry, Periodontics, Endodontics, and Prosthodontics—a distinction held by very few dental surgeons in the UK. This expertise provides reassurance to both patients and referring dentists.
Outside of dentistry, Adrian enjoys cycling, surfing (with limited success), playing football, following rugby, and attending theatre and comedy performances.

Ben Cross – Bristol Dental Specialists
BDS (Wales), MScD (Wales), MFDS RCS (Eng), MOrth RCS (Edin) | GDC No. 80759
Ben Cross is a highly experienced specialist orthodontist and founding partner of Bristol Dental Specialists. He enjoys guiding patients through their orthodontic journey, helping them regain confidence and achieve radiant, healthy smiles. Many of his patients begin treatment feeling self-conscious, but as treatment progresses, their confidence grows, culminating in transformative results that impact both appearance and self-esteem.
Ben qualified as a dentist from the University of Wales in 2002 and spent 15 years practicing in the British Army, serving in Germany, Africa, Cyprus, and Gibraltar. He then completed a year as a Senior House Officer in Maxillofacial Surgery in Portsmouth before undertaking three years of specialist training in orthodontics, completing this in 2011. He is now registered as a specialist orthodontist with the General Dental Council.
Ben offers a full range of aesthetic orthodontic treatments for children and adults, including Invisalign® clear aligners. He has a particular interest in multi-disciplinary treatment for adults with worn or compromised teeth, integrating advanced 3D imaging technology to improve treatment planning, accuracy, and efficiency. His MSc dissertation focused on the precision of these imaging techniques, and at Bristol Dental Specialists, he has helped integrate state-of-the-art scanning and X-ray systems into the practice.
Outside the clinic, Ben is an avid cyclist and enjoys a fulfilling family life with his wife and two children in the countryside near Bristol.
