Services
Preventative Dentistry
Regular examinations and hygiene treatments help prevent dental issues before they develop. Our approach focuses on early intervention and education to maintain natural teeth long-term. Patients receive personalised oral care advice and preventive treatments like fluoride applications.
Dental Implants
Implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth using titanium fixtures that integrate with the jawbone. We offer comprehensive implant treatment planning, placement, and restoration with crowns or bridges to restore full functionality and aesthetics.
Cosmetic Braces
Invisible aligners and discreet brace systems correct misaligned teeth with minimal visual impact. Treatment plans address crowding, spacing, and bite issues while maintaining professional appearances, suitable for both adults and teenagers.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments safely lighten discoloured natural teeth using custom trays and medical-grade gels. Results typically show significant improvement within weeks, with take-home kits allowing ongoing maintenance for lasting brightness.
Sedation
Conscious sedation techniques help anxious patients undergo dental procedures comfortably. Administered via oral tablets or inhalation, sedation reduces fear while maintaining patient responsiveness, particularly beneficial for complex or lengthy treatments.

Report
Popped in to have my upper right 2nd molar examined by Martin Bateman. From initial consultation, through the two subsequent follow up Root Canal procedures he was simply brilliant (as was his assistant). So exceptional was his level of care during the final lengthy procedure that I nearly drifted off to sleep! Simply brilliant dental practitioners and I will (so long as I live in the SW) never go anywhere else.

My parents have been going here for years. Had to call to change their appointment and they were very friendly and helpful. Hassle free. Thank you

I had a 2hr root canal procedure, completed in the most professional way. Being my first experience of this procedure (and of Wellsway Dental Practice), my dentist, Tom, put me at ease right away, explaining the process clearly beforehand. Nothing felt rushed or too much trouble, despite me mentioning having dentist anxiety in the past at other practices. I felt comfortable throughout the whole procedure. When I looked at my tooth afterwards, I couldnt see a trace of the work carried out and I had zero discomfort that evening or in the days after. It was like I had imagined the whole thing

Wellsway Dental Practice is brilliant. I would recommend them to anyone, especially if you are nervous. I spent many years not visiting the dentist due to fear and anxiety. I have been looked after so well by the dentists and hygienists here that I no longer have any concern to book my check ups and hygienist appointments. They have helped to get my teeth and gums back to a healthy condition!
