Training and qualifications

Gaj finished his undergraduate dental training in 2015 from Bart's and the Royal London Hospital. He then spent a year working as an NHS foundation dentist in the competitive South East London deanery. While working in general practice, Gaj spent the next two years studying for a postgraduate diploma in Clinical Implant Dentistry from Newcastle University, which he completed with merit.

Having found a passion for periodontology and implantology, Gaj decided to enhance and formalize his skills by embarking upon specialist training. He was accepted onto the specialist training programme in periodontology at the prestigious Eastman Dental Institute, University College London Hospital. Here he completed a master's in Clinical Dentistry, while working as a specialty registrar in the periodontology department at UCLH.

Following completion of his specialist training, Gaj gained Membership in Periodontics from the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Additionally, he is accredited by the European Federation of Periodontology and was awarded the Certificate of Completion of Specialist Training in Periodontology and Implantology.

Gaj is accepting referrals for treatment of gum disease, coverage of gum recession, treatment of gummy smiles and rehabilitation of missing teeth with dental implants.

As of May 2024, Gaj has returned to UCLH as a specialty dentist and clinical lecturer. His research was nominated for the UCL Dean's Research Prize, and he has also presented globally. Outside of dentistry, Gaj is an avid football fan and is happy to talk about all things Arsenal.
