Services
Invisalign treatment
Our Invisalign treatment uses clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth through gentle force. The process includes digital scanning, custom-made aligners, and follow-up appointments. Patients receive free retainers and whitening, with treatment typically lasting 6 months. The 3,850 package covers all necessary aligners and refinements.
Dental implants
We provide dental implant solutions for replacing missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking restorations. The process involves surgical placement of titanium posts followed by crown attachment. Our team uses advanced imaging technology for precise planning, ensuring long-term functionality and aesthetic results.
Teeth whitening
Professional teeth whitening services deliver noticeable results using safe, effective bleaching techniques. Patients receive custom trays and whitening gel for home use, with guidance from our dental experts. The treatment effectively removes stains caused by food, drink, and lifestyle habits.
Sedation dentistry
We offer intravenous and inhalation sedation options to help anxious patients receive dental care comfortably. Our qualified team administers sedation safely while maintaining patient awareness. This service enables complex treatments to be completed with minimal stress for fearful individuals.
Emergency care
Our emergency dental service addresses sudden pain, broken teeth, and oral injuries with same-day appointments. For 175, patients receive immediate pain relief, diagnostics, and initial treatment. The fee covers simple extractions, antibiotics, and temporary repairs while planning long-term solutions.

The practice does fantastic work. I think they can work a little bit on customer care. For me it was lacking compassion. In all and the main point is that the work they do is to an extremely high standard.

A huge thank you to the team at Contemporary Dental. My own dentist wasn't able to help with a lower wisdom tooth extraction and left me in pain for days. They offered me an emergency appointment that afternoon, no fuss, no pain and such kindness! Thank you all.

Excellent service. I rang in the morning because a filling had come out, and they had a space at lunchtime, so it was all sorted by 2pm! As ever the staff were sensitive to my anxieties about going to the dentist!

All staff are very polite and professional. Couldn't meet a nicer dentist than Mark, he was recommended to me by ny local dentist as they were unable to sort out an implant I had 20 yes ago. Now all sorted. Very pleasant and certainly puts you at ease as soon as you walk through the door with his "hello munchkin" saying! Thx Mark for doing a great job.

In severe pain in a lower tooth. Phoned the surgery at 9am and Mark Russ gave up his lunch hour to see me the same day!. Consequently I was treated and pain free five hours after my making the appointment. Thank you Mark and your excellent team! Roger

Mark is, without doubt, the best dentist i have ever had.
Whilst being thoroughly professional Mark has a relaxed air and inspires confidence from the offset. I particularly value the fact that he keeps you informed along the way. There's nothing worse than picking up a vibe from your dentist that things aren't going according to plan but being kept in the dark. The team is adhering strictly to COVID regulations. Going above and beyond to make patients feel safe. I can't speak highly enough of Mark and his team and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
