End of an era

One of Stourbridge’s longest serving dentists has decided to take a break from the chair after nearly four decades looking after the teeth of local people.

Iain Dale retired from Worcester Street Dental Centre and Stourcote Dental Practice after putting the smile back on the faces of thousands of patients over a career that spanned 39 years.

The passionate Coventry City supporter has developed a reputation for making a trip to the dentists a pain free experience, using his love of football, cars and sense of humour to take away much of the fear associated with the treatment.

He has been inundated with thank you cards and best wishes from his patients, who include famous singers, Lords and Ladies and people who have traveled from Cornwall, Wales and as far as Hong Kong to be treated by him.

“I qualified as a dental surgeon in 1976, at Birmingham University, and my first career opportunity came as an associate at Stourcote Dental Practice in Lower High Street. That’s where my love affair with Stourbridge started,” explained Iain, who also chaired the Local Dental Committee for five years.
