Dental Implants
Our dental implant solutions restore missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking replacements. Using advanced 3D CT scanning technology, we create custom treatment plans that ensure optimal bone integration and aesthetic results. Our implant surgeons perform surgical placement with precision, followed by custom crown fabrication for complete smile restoration.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment straightens teeth discreetly using removable, clear aligner trays. Our specialists create digital treatment plans that show your smile transformation journey. As a top 1% Invisalign provider in Europe, we offer specialist-led care with fixed and removable retainers included in treatment packages.
Root Canal Treatment
Specialist root canal treatments eliminate dental infection while preserving natural teeth. Our endodontists use advanced techniques and sedation options to ensure comfortable procedures. Most treatments complete within 60 minutes, with follow-up reviews included to monitor healing and success rates.
Veneers
Porcelain veneers transform smiles by correcting tooth shape, colour, and alignment issues. Our cosmetic dentists create customised smile designs using digital imaging technology. The two-visit process includes tooth preparation, impression taking, and final bonding of ultra-thin ceramic veneers for natural aesthetics.
Facial Aesthetics
Our facial aesthetics treatments use dermal fillers and botulinum toxin injections to reduce wrinkles and enhance facial contours. Clinicians with specialist training in facial rejuvenation create natural-looking results that restore youthful appearance while maintaining facial expression mobility through precise injection techniques.

HUGE thank you to Dr Patel and his team for the amazing care I received for my Invisalign treatment over the last year. Dr Patel has done such a fantastic job and I am so happy with the results! Ive never felt so confident about my smile. The team are always so friendly and helpful. I will continue to use the practice as my regular dentist and hygienist and would highly recommend to others

Just want to thank Dr Ammar Al-Hourani for a very pleasant experience with my root canal treatment. Would highly recommend him as he was very gentle and carried out treatment to an expert level.

Report
I've suffered from a dental phobia and put off going to the dentist for many years, despiting breaking a tooth which eventually became abcessed. The pain and misery became intolerable and a google search brought me reluctantly to Alexandra Dental Practice, where I was seen by Dr Shah. I was ashamed that I had waited so long to see a dentist, but Dr Shah was very understanding and put me at ease, even after telling me I needed to have two teeth extracted. I was offered sedation, which I have never tried, but agreed as I didn't think I could face the procedure otherwise. The day before the operation

As an extremely nervous patient, I can't recommend Dr Shah and his practice highly enough. I have had to have several crowns done and all my wisdom teeth extracted and he has talked me through every step. He is the first dentist I have ever visited who made me feel comfortable in the chair!

Lovely clean clinic. Very friendly reception staff and great dentists. The specialist was patient and kind when discussing treatment and after care ensuring I was fully comfortable throughout treatment. Travelling from central London, definitely worth the trip.
