About Lela Kendall

Growing up in Spalding, Lincolnshire, I became interested in dentistry at school when I spent some time on work experience with my own dentist. I enjoyed being around people, the interaction the dentist has with her patients and the ability to help others in a practical way. Having previously studied a degree in Biomedical Materials Science, I qualified in Dental Surgery from the University of Birmingham in 2008 with prizes in clinical and paediatric dentistry. Since then I worked at the Maltings Dental Practice in Grantham until joining the surgery in the summer of 2009. I enjoy being a family dentist and maintaining all areas of dental health for my patients, especially restorative and periodontal care. Having returned to Lincolnshire I have started a family with my partner and enjoy family activities such as swimming, cinema and watching Formula 1.
