Every practice claims to deliver the best care. What sets us apart?
Compassion & communication – We listen to our patients and prioritise communication. Coming to the dentist can be stressful, so we invest in developing a relationship with you that will keep you coming back for years.
Our amazing team – We’re proud of our talented team and have a strong ‘grow your own’ ethos. Team stability and professional development is key - we invest in our people, so they can invest in you. Whilst you will usually see the same clinician for regular care, you may be offered the option to see other clinicians for more specialist treatments such as root canal, implants or Invisalign.
Prevention – Our membership plan allows us to help you to keep your teeth and importantly your gums in great health, for the long term. With AirFlow treatments offered as standard with our membership plan you leave us with stain free teeth and the ultimate fresh, clean feeling.
Our practice – Thoughtful design is at the heart of what we do and we’ve made sure this is reflected across the practice. Our welcoming reception provides a calm and relaxed environment, and with accessible ground floor facilities, we aim to accommodate everyone, whatever their needs.
