Kathy Harley

Kathy Harley is a senior Consultant in Paediatric Dentistry, with a specialist focus on restorative care for children with dental anomalies, trauma, and complex needs. With decades of experience in specialist centres including Great Ormond Street Hospital and the Eastman Dental Hospital, she is one of the UK’s few paediatric consultants with formal training in adult conservative dentistry—allowing her to bring advanced techniques to the developing dentition.

Kathy works closely with families to deliver gentle, effective, and minimally invasive care, particularly for young patients with developmental enamel and dentine defects or following surgical interventions. Her work is rooted in evidence-based clinical excellence, and she remains active in clinical education and dento-legal consultation.
