Dr Tif Qureshi qualified from Kings College London in 1992. He is a Past President of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.

Tif is founder and a clinical director of IAS Academy, an International faculty that provides mentored education for general dentists on a pathway from appropriate simple to comprehensive orthodontics.

Tif has a special interest in simple orthodontics and truly minimally invasive dentistry. He has committed his life’s work to empowering dentists to provide important alternative techniques. He offers a wide variety of treatments to many more patients, while always respecting the fundamental precepts of orthodontics.

Tif also pioneered the concept of Progressive Smile Design through Alignment, Bleaching, Bonding – a course that combines tooth alignment, composite bonding and teeth whitening to produce superior smiles using techniques with the absolute minimum of invasiveness available today.

An experienced teacher in the Dahl concept, Tif shows how this technique is used to plan tooth alignment and minimise invasive dentistry in the development of a beautiful smile.

Tif now lectures and published scientific articles internationally.

After graduating from the University of Glasgow with his BDS, Geoff Stone gained his MFDS from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Glasgow. 

In 2011, orthodontics became an interest of Geoff when he completed the Inman Aligner course. From this, he progressed to clear aligners, fixed aligners and then discreet orthodontics.

He won the best discreet case at the 2018 IAS world symposium and completed the advanced fixed orthodontics course under guidance from Prof* Hobson.

Now an accredited member of the academy, Geoff is a valued IAS mentor for removable appliances.

Geoff has gained a multitude of experience including working in Scotland providing NHS and private treatments. Geoff treats a wide variety of patients and is keen to share his enthusiasm and insight into orthodontic and cosmetic treatments.

Kelly Toft graduated from Guys, Kings and St Thomas in 2003 and completed vocational training in Dorset. She became a clinical supervisor at the Otago dental school in New Zealand the following year before returning to Dorset, where she continues to practice.

Kelly has always been interested in orthodontics and found the IAS Academy to be an ideal fit for integrating it into general practice. In 2015, she completed the Inman course and progressed to completing the Advanced course in 2019.

As a trainer and mentor on the fixed and aligner forums, Kelly is always eager to share her skills and knowledge.
