Services
Dental Crowns
Custom-made dental crowns restore damaged teeth using durable materials like porcelain, metal, or gold. Our dentists ensure precise fitting for both functional restoration and aesthetic improvement. Patients benefit from enhanced tooth strength and natural appearance.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments safely lighten tooth shade using proven bleaching techniques. Our clinicians tailor solutions to individual sensitivity levels, achieving noticeable results while maintaining enamel protection through post-treatment care advice.
Dental Implants
Permanent dental implants provide stable tooth replacement solutions using titanium fixtures. Our specialists employ the Ankylos system for secure integration, offering improved functionality compared to removable dentures while preserving jawbone structure.
Hygiene Visits
Regular hygiene appointments focus on gum disease prevention and oral health maintenance. Our hygienists provide thorough cleanings, plaque removal, and personalized advice to reduce risks of systemic health complications linked to poor dental hygiene.
Facial Aesthetics
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments target wrinkles and skin laxity using injectable solutions. Administered by trained clinicians, these procedures leverage dental expertise in facial anatomy for natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

I visited Beckenham Dental Centre for the first time in a few years today having been away for some time, and it was such a positive experience. I saw both the hygienist and the dentist and both were so friendly and really put me at ease, as well as giving me really helpful, and informative advice. I felt they both really took the time to explain things to me, and it didn't feel at all rushed - and the nurses were both really friendly and helpful as well. Really felt like everyone went above and beyond. Great experience and I will definitely be going back.

Worst dentist Ive ever been ,, very rude !!
Im a new private costumer and I went to check my tooth because of toothache . First I had to wait half an hour more without any explanation , when I got in ,the dentist had a look on my tooth which was infected and looked very bad so she started being rude and telling me off for not taking care my teeth and that I should be ashamed!!
Dont even bother going there , waste of money and time !

My son is three and we had an emergency visit to Beckenham Dental Centre at the weekend to check on his front teeth after an injury to his mouth. They were so good with him, checking Winston and Reindeer's 'teeth' first to put him at ease. They took their time with him, letting him play in the chair and use the mirror on his soft toys.To my amazement, he complied with having his teeth and mouth checked by Anastasia and the dental nurses. They totally put him at ease and overcame his anxiety and joyously everyone left with a sticker. If you have children, Beckenham Dental Centre will take care to

I have been so impressed with the care from the dentists, dental nurses and hygienists at this practice - it is without a doubt the best dental care I have received to date. I feel the staff are knowledgeable but I think the thing that sets it apart in the dental world is that I have never felt that Im being sold a product or a procedure which with the pressures in the dental world can be quite common in other practices. This means I feel I can fully trust the opinions of the professionals. I feel the dentists have taken time to explain things properly to me and answered my questions fully.

Have been going here for years. My children see Hania who is great. I saw Vicky the hygienist who is completely lovely and for the last couple of years have been working with Khalida and her team towards implants. She has made me feel so at ease and really helped my fear of the dentist. I had a sinus lift yesterday with minimal bruising and pain. Highly recommended!

Received fantastic dental treatment here and Khalida was very patient with me as I was very nervous about getting mouldings for my top set of teeth. My husband has also been treated here by Khalida and must say we are very impressed.
