Mr Konstantinos Karavidas
Professional statement
Mr Konstantinos Karavidas is an award winning consultant head and neck / maxillofacial and oral surgeon – robotic and facial reconstructive surgeon with over 10 year’s of experience, practising in London and the surrounding areas. He is an expert in multiple areas of medicine but concentrates primarily on oral cancer, sialendoscopy and tongue tie, as well as robotic surgery, oral surgery and wisdom teeth.
Mr Karavidas studied medicine at the Medical School of University of Ioannina, in Ioannina, Greece, graduating in 1998. Following this, he opted to pursue dentistry at The Dental School of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece and was awarded a Doctor of Dentistry in 2002.
