of crowns knocked out. “She had lunged forward


and her mask had clattered into her teeth. She actually had the marks of her mask on her teeth.” Mike revealed that one of


the most touching moments of the Games was not related to the sporting action. He was fortunate enough to be in the same team as Andrew Hartle, an intensive care consultant who treated many of the victims of the 7/7 bombings in London. He said:


“It was a humbling expe- rience just being around him. He is a fantastic guy, very calm and nothing seemed to bother him.”


Looking forward to Glasgow,


Mike is keen to get involved again. He said: “I think it’s going to be great, I’m sure there will be no shortage of people offering their time.”


And he is encouraging as


many dental professionals as possible to get involved and help make Glasgow 2014 an event to remember. He said: “I think, if you are


a general practitioner, you tend work away in your own practice every day and this is a great chance for a whole new experience being involved in a massive event with so many interesting people who are from different profes- sional walks of life. “I met so


many fantastic people and will keep in touch with many of them.


You make good contacts, you learn a


lot and, if you have a sporting


interest, combining that with your professional abilities is a fantastic opportunity.”
