Services
Dental Implants
Our dental implant services restore missing teeth with natural-looking, durable solutions. Using advanced technology, we place titanium posts that fuse with jawbone tissue for permanent stability. This treatment improves chewing function, speech clarity, and facial aesthetics while preventing bone loss. Patients receive comprehensive consultations to determine suitability for single or multiple implants.
Teeth Straightening
We offer modern teeth straightening solutions including fixed braces and removable aligners. Our specialist orthodontist creates custom treatment plans to correct misalignment issues. Both functional and cosmetic benefits are achieved through improved bite patterns and enhanced smile aesthetics. Treatment duration varies according to individual dental requirements.
Smile Styling
Our smile transformation services combine teeth whitening, veneers, and composite bonding to address multiple aesthetic concerns. This comprehensive approach corrects discoloration, chips, and gaps while maintaining natural tooth structure. Treatments are tailored to complement facial features and personal preferences for optimal aesthetic outcomes.
Teeth Repairs
We provide fillings, crowns, and root canal treatments to restore damaged or decayed teeth. Using tooth-coloured materials, our dentists preserve dental function while maintaining natural appearance. Emergency repairs address cracked teeth and lost fillings promptly to prevent further complications.
Dental Fees
Our transparent pricing structure covers routine check-ups, hygiene appointments, and complex procedures. We offer detailed cost breakdowns before treatment commencement. Payment plans and financing options help manage larger dental investments while maintaining financial clarity for all patients.

My latest appointment was to fit my new invisible brace. I found this process easy, the dentist explained everything clearly and reassured I would be followed up frequently throughout the process. I always have a good experience when visiting Walkden Dental Practice, no complaints!

Attended a few times over past few months.
Receptionists: Always friendly, helpful, cheerful & polite. They greet you with a smile every time.
Dentist: Seen by Nicola Stenton. She has always been friendly and polite. Explains everything and makes sure you are comfortable throughout. I have a needle phobia but needed a few throughout my treatment, Nicola was very gentle, taking her time to the point where I couldn't feel the needle.
