Services
Dental Implants
We specialise in dental implants as permanent tooth replacements, restoring both function and aesthetics. Our specialists perform single implants, All-on-4 solutions, and complex cases requiring bone grafting. Patients benefit from improved confidence, eating ability, and facial structure preservation through our implant-retained bridges and crowns.
Orthodontics
Our orthodontic treatments address crowding, misalignment, and bite issues using fixed braces and clear aligners. Specialist care includes occlusional adjustments and combined treatments with veneers or crowns. Patients achieve improved dental function and straighter smiles through tailored treatment plans.
Periodontics
Specialist periodontal care manages gum disease, recession, and aesthetic gum concerns. Techniques include surgical crown lengthening, connective tissue grafts, and non-surgical management. Treatments preserve tooth support structures and enhance smile aesthetics through gum reshaping procedures.
Cosmetic Dentistry
We transform smiles through crowns, veneers, and teeth whitening. Our specialists create natural-looking restorations that match existing teeth while addressing wear, fractures, or discolouration. Patients regain confidence through aesthetically pleasing and functional dental improvements.
Endodontics
Specialist root canal treatments preserve damaged teeth using advanced techniques. We handle complex cases including retreatments and surgical procedures. Patients maintain natural teeth longer while eliminating infection and preserving dental arch integrity through expert endodontic care.

Fernando made me feel at ease with my recent gum graft procedure so I can get an implant in a few months and I am a very nervous dental patient! Everything was explained in full. All staff very pleasant, kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

I was referred to the practice from my usual dentist for a root canal treatment, I ended up blowing up the old filling & half the tooth a few weeks before the appointment so it made the repair work more complex. Octavian took the extra work in his stride and when I left with a root canal and a rebuilt tooth I feel like I could smile again. He took the time to explain the work and differences in root canal structures. I had two nurses (one for the consultation & one for the repair work) both Jenny & Gail were great with their bedside manner. Having your jaw open for over an hour and having updates

I had root canal treatment from Octavian. The treatment was all carefully and professionally explained throughout. The whole experience was totally pain free..a relief as I am a pathetically nervous patient. Faultless if a little expensive. Nevertheless I would recommend wholeheartedly.

A previous consultation at another practice had left me emotionally traumatised and it took me a couple of years to seek another consultation at a different practice for the implants I needed. From the moment I entered the South Coast premises in Dorchester I knew I would be in safe hands. Both Naveed and David explained everything clearly, were personable and professional and always made me feel at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending them. The customer service at the Practice is excellent. I cant stop smiling at my new smile! Thank you.

All I wanted for Christmas was my 'two front teeth' and Simon Ellis and his amazing team certainly did that! The whole process took roughly a year and I felt really looked after by the whole team. Friendly, professional and a perfectionist right to the very end. I'm delighted with the results and haven't stopped beaming since! Huge thanks to the whole team for giving me back my smile!

It took five months from start to finish ..but I got my new tooth just in time for Christmas! And it looks lovely ( well: as lovely as the rest!)
It was all totally efficient, comfortable, covid careful, and rather expensive .. but I knew that. The most impressive thing was the dentist ensuring that the end result was "perfect" for me - which it was.. On a more minor note, but useful ..parking was good too ;-)

We cannot fault the patience and expertise of your consultant Simon Ellis, and thank him for being in for the long haul with my mother Gwen McKell-Davies. We wish you all a very peaceful Christmas with your family. Next year, hopefully will see mummy smiling broadly, out and about with her wonderful, natural set of dentures. Lets hope we are all smiling next year!
