How do I register?
We need to see you for a new patient consultation. It takes around 40 minutes, we fill in all the paperwork then do a full examination including digital x-rays. Please call 01406 364 600 to make an appointment. We take payment for the new patient consultation on booking.
Do you have a dental membership plan?
Yes, we have a variety of plans so that we can offer one which is the right fit for your needs. These plans cover your dental exams, your hygiene appointments and give 10% discounts on any other treatments. They also offer access to a worldwide emergency scheme which covers emergency appointments, accidents and lots more.
Do you do children’s dentistry?
Yes we do. We see under 5’s free of charge for their routine check-ups, oral hygiene advice and fluoride applications to protect their teeth if a parent is registered with us. All children between 5-17 years will be seen on the under 18s plan and will be looked after by our therapists Beth and Lucy.
Do I have to see a dental hygienist?
We firmly believe that the gums are the foundations of healthy teeth and so we will often recommend that you see our lovely, gentle hygienist. Ultimately though, it is you who makes the final decisions regarding your treatment.
