Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services enhance smiles through porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and white fillings. Tailored treatment plans address discolouration, chips, and alignment issues using minimally invasive techniques. Patients receive comprehensive consultations to determine the most suitable options for achieving natural-looking results.
Root Canal Treatment
Specialist-led root canal treatments address infected or damaged pulp using advanced techniques and equipment. The procedure eliminates pain while preserving natural teeth, with detailed post-treatment care instructions provided. Our endodontist has over 15 years of experience in complex cases.
Preventative Dentistry
Preventative care focuses on maintaining oral health through regular check-ups, hygiene sessions, and patient education. We teach proper brushing techniques, inter-dental cleaning, and dietary advice to reduce decay risk. Early detection of potential issues ensures timely intervention.
Dental Implants
Implant solutions replace missing teeth with permanent, natural-feeling alternatives. The process includes surgical placement and crown fitting, supported by bone grafting where necessary. Patients benefit from restored function and aesthetics with long-term durability.
Children's Dentistry
We provide child-friendly dental care focusing on prevention and early intervention. Services include check-ups, fissure sealants, and trauma management. Our team creates positive experiences to establish lifelong oral health habits in a welcoming environment.

Like most people I was not looking forward to having root canal treatment. Thankfully, the team at Timberhill Dental Practise were wonderful. The receptionists always give a warm welcome to make you feel at ease and the Specialist Endodontist Vip is excellent at making you feel comfortable throughout. Along with Dental Assistant Shirley, he kept the appointment upbeat with reassuring chat to let me know exactly what was going to happen and a choice of background music to help relax me. I cant thank them enough for making my appointment as stress-free as possible and would recommend them in a

I was very happy with my recent experience. Dr Kataria explained everything very clearly and made me feel at ease during the procedure, checking regularly that I was ok. He was happy to answer any questions I had and gave clear post procedure instructions. All the staff were friendly and helpful and I would recommend Timberhill Practice.

Very friendly team! The receptionist was super polite and very helpful, and as a new patient answered all my questions with a smile. The hygienist Leanne is amazing! She has a gentle approch, very friendly manner and totally made me feel at ease after being apprehensive about dental appts for many years in the past. Definitely recommend!

I dont normally write reviews but on this occasion I have to. I cant recommend Timberhill Dental Practice and in particularly Dr Treon highly enough. I originally found the practice whilst looking for a new dentist for my father who lives in a nearby care home.

I highly recommend this practice. I have had a very challenging root canal treatment done by Dr Kataria, who has been amazing, he spent a lot of time writing emails and reports to specialist at Kings College Hospital to make the right decisions about my treatment and alway kept me up to date. I also saw Leanne the hygienist who was brilliant. All the receptionist are really friendly, welcoming and helpful.
