General Dentistry
We provide comprehensive NHS dental examinations, cleanings, and preventive treatments. Our services include diagnosis with X-rays, fillings, root canal work, and tooth extractions. Emergency dental care is available daily with dedicated morning slots for urgent cases. All treatments follow NHS banding charges.
Cosmetic Treatments
We offer private cosmetic dental solutions including white fillings, veneers, crowns, and bridges. Our teeth whitening packages start from 350 while composite bonding treatments address tooth imperfections. All cosmetic work is performed by GDC-registered professionals with specialist training.
Clear Aligners
We provide discreet orthodontic treatment starting at 1,800. Our clear aligner system gradually straightens teeth without traditional metal braces. Treatment includes initial consultation, custom aligner fabrication, and follow-up adjustments by qualified dental professionals.
Dental Implants
We offer permanent tooth replacement solutions starting from 2,200 per implant. Our implant treatment includes surgical placement, healing period, and crown fitting. The process follows strict clinical protocols with pre-operative assessments and post-operative care.

We provide adapted dental treatments for patients with sensory sensitivities. Our practice features quiet treatment rooms, adjustable lighting, and specialist communication approaches. This service supports individuals with autism and other sensory processing conditions during dental visits.

You just can't get through to them. I really don't think my 'call is very important to us'. It really can't be that difficult to offer a better service that this.
