Upon graduation he joined the Army and served as a Dental Officer in Germany, Cyprus, Northern Ireland, Gibraltar and the Former Republic of Yugoslavia over a seven-year period.

Dr Deans retired from the Army in 2010 to further develop his orthodontic skills by continuing his career in the hospital orthodontic services at Leeds Dental Institute, York Hospital and, currently, Glasgow Dental Hospital.
