We use advanced diagnostics to maintain oral health and address issues early. Tailored advice on home care ensures long-term dental wellness for patients of all ages.

Outstanding service. All so friendly and make the whole experience of going to the dentist as comfortable as they can. Especially as I am a nervous patient! The facilities and tech used is amazing. I would strongly recommend Christchurch Dental Practice to everyone.

Report
Recently I had a root filling from the mid 80's refilled and a crown fitted by Derek. It's one of those things that I wonder why I hadn't had done so much sooner, guess I was worried refilling wasn't possible and I didnt want to lose the tooth. Well I can safely say getting this root refill and crown was one of my better decisions. The root filling wasn't the easiest for Derek as there was a broken implement in one of the roots, from when it was first filled in the mid 80's. I think getting that implement out made Derek's day, I know it made mine. The whole team at Christchurch always go out

Earlier this year I had a tooth root filled and the level of care and precision was excellent. More recently, my hygienist appointment was also very professional and stress free. Everyone there, makes one feel very welcome. The very strict protocol they operate for protection from possible Covid transmission gives great security to both patients and staff.
