Dr Sejal Bhundia

BDS (Hons), BSc (Hons)

GDC No. : 302222

Sejal Bhundia graduated from King’s College London, where she studied Dentistry following a degree in Biomedical Sciences. She then completed her vocational training year, which provided a strong foundation in all aspects of general dentistry and helped her develop confidence in both clinical decision-making and patient communication. This experience allowed her to manage a wide variety of cases independently while benefiting from structured support and mentorship that furthered her clinical and professional development.

Following this, Sejal spent several years working in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery across a number of London hospitals, including the Eastman Dental Institute, where she gained extensive experience managing a broad range of surgical and complex dental cases. Working within this specialty exposed her to oral cancer, facial trauma, and medically complex patients, allowing her to integrate both medical and dental aspects of patient care. This experience significantly strengthened her oral surgery skills, enhanced her ability to manage anxious patients, and increased her confidence in treating individuals with more complex dental and medical needs. It also reinforced the importance of clear communication, empathy and calm reassurance — qualities that continue to underpin her approach in general practice.

With this background, Sejal particularly enjoys oral surgery and takes great satisfaction in helping patients who are in pain, whether through extractions or more comprehensive treatment planning. She is also sedation qualified, which further supports her ability to help anxious patients feel safe, calm and comfortable throughout treatment. Sejal is happy to accept private referrals for extractions and oral surgery and is keen to build long-term collaborative relationships with referring practices.

Alongside her surgical interests, Sejal is passionate about preserving natural dentition wherever possible through restorative treatments such as fillings and crowns. She is currently undertaking a diploma in Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry to continue refining and expanding her clinical skills in this area.

Sejal particularly enjoys treating nervous patients and supporting them as they gradually build confidence throughout their treatment journey. One of the most rewarding aspects of her work is seeing patients who initially feel anxious become increasingly comfortable and able to tolerate treatment with ease over time.

She is committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centred dentistry in a calm and reassuring environment, ensuring patients feel as comfortable and supported as possible throughout their care.

Outside of dentistry, Sejal enjoys reading, travelling, yoga and baking.

Dr Mansour’s professional interests include conscious sedation, pain management and restorative dentistry. She holds a Certificate in Conscious Sedation and Pain Management, as well as a Certificate in Restorative Dental Practice, both from the Eastman Dental Institute. She also holds an MSc in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and earlier in her career gained valuable hospital experience as a House Officer in both Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Restorative Dentistry at Guy’s Dental Hospital.

Highly recommended ********** I went in for a tooth extraction yesterday. It could have been a troublesome extraction which is why I chose to go to an experienced oral surgeon. Twenty minutes after entering the surgery, I was out. Job done. No pain whatsoever. Today I hardly feel anything. Superb job by Dr Shah - one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. A couple of years ago my daughter had an implant done by Dr Shah. It was a brilliant job. That's one of the reasons I went to see him. If you need an experienced, pair hands skillfully working on your precious teeth, Dr Shah is your man.

Amit has been highly professional and honest,exactly what i have been looking for through my initial Consultations for Invisalign and cant be beaten on price and value. Highly recomended.

I visited this practice as a new patient and can honestly say it is one of the best practices I have ever been to. I was greeted by the practice manager Kas on arrival who was friendly and attentive; despite this current pandemic everything was clean and organised and I felt safe. I was then seen by Dr Amit Devlukia for a routine examination and a clean and polish. He was very knowledgeable and had a friendly approach. He was honest, patient and explained things in detail which no other dentist has ever done in the past. He even managed to squeeze me in for my 3D stimulation scan required for invisalign and was very thorough. I'm so glad I changed my previous dentist and will be recommending this practice and Dr Amit to my family and friends..

The staff at Stag Lane were incredible from the moment I walked through the door. Despite having to navigate the current pandemic, staff were careful to maintain an excellent level that made me feel welcomed and less nervous. Every move and procedure was explained to me and my level of comfort checked throughout. I would like to personally thank all of the staff for their help.

Great experience. Highly recommended 👍🏻. I was having sever pain due to wisdom tooth with immunity problem. It was my first time, was so scared, but they were very supportive, give me quick appointment, very helpful for the procedure. The doctor was so patient, listen with care, handle my case in very professional way, and it was painless . Thank you so much for all your effort, care and professionalism.
