Business Details
There has been a dental practice at 30 Zetland Road since the 1920's and in 1997 it was purchased by its current owner Simon Dunn. Hannah Knight joined the practice in 2001 straight after qualification at Bristol Dental Hospital. She works part time between reception and surgery duties. Her GDC number is 126718.
There might be a lot of familiar faces when you come to the Dentist each visit, and that's because all of our staff have been at Zetland Road together for at least 6 years, with the majority being a team for 13 years or more. We don't have a high turnover of staff and that's what makes us different as a practice.

Services
Services/Feedback
Zetland Road Dental Practice offers the complete range of services expected in dentistry today. The reception staff are able to answer any queries that you may have and the practice welcomes all adult patients on a private basis. We take new patients on a private basis only as the practice does not have an NHS contract, although children and students are seen under a reduced fee scale.
Implants
Dental implants can be used in a variety of ways to help replace missing teeth or to secure loose dentures. Implants are effectively threaded screws made of titanium, a metal which the body does not recognise as "foreign". This allows for the bone into which the implant is placed to heal around the implant and become united with it, a process referred to as osseo-integration.
Cosmetic
Dentistry has undergone many changes in recent years with the advent of techniques to improve both the shape and colour of teeth with a poor appearance. The use of porcelain and tooth coloured filling materials can greatly enhance the appearance of a person's smile. This can be either carrying out work that has to be done, or something that somebody wants but that has no health benefit, in a way that enhances their appearance.
Prices
The following is a guide to prices but a full estimate is given for every course of treatment and includes comparative fees if there are several treatment options available. A thin cover added to the front of a tooth to restore of change the colour and shape of the tooth. There are pay and display bays close to the practice, please ensure you do not park in permit only bays.
Hygienist
Under recent changes to practicing guidelines patients can now have direct access to our hygienist service without being registered at the practice. Every patient at each check-up is screened for the presence of gum (periodontal) disease and if any signs are detected then treatment is offered. All of the active treatment is carried out by our hygienist Claire Gazzard.
Emergency Advice
Keep the crown safe until we can see you. You may be able to cement it yourself with a temporary kit, but this will only work if the crown has come off cleanly without taking tooth or the base filling with it. Make sure it is clean. Use something small like a paper-clip end to clean out any loose cement but if you are uncertain then it is better to not cause damage to the crown.
