about us

An established family practice for over 35 years, we now offer the services of six dentists, a visiting Periodontist and Oral Surgeon, four hygienists, one dental therapist, and a full complement of dental care nurses and reception staff, together with a client care advisor and a business manager.

 

We are committed to keeping up to date with the continuous developments in dental techniques and materials that will improve the care we offer. We have invested in post-graduate courses to allow us to offer you a comprehensive range of services in-house, and technology to maximise safety and efficiency. We believe we work best as a team and have achieved Investors in People; we meet regularly to see how we can improve our quality of care and to also have fun and raise money for our sponsored charity.
