Services
We Provide

We can also assist with children’s dentistry, dental emergencies, dental bridgework and facial cosmetic treatments!

Teeth Whitening

A bright, white smile can boost your confidence and leave a lasting impression. Over time, factors such as coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, and aging can cause teeth to discolour, diminishing the radiance of your smile. Professional teeth whitening is a safe and effective solution designed to remove stains and restore the natural brilliance of your teeth. Unlike over-the-counter products, professional treatments are customised to your unique needs, ensuring consistent and noticeable results. Whether you're preparing for a special occasion or simply want to refresh your look, teeth whitening can give you the smile you’ve always wanted.

Children’s Dentistry

Our goal is to create a positive and reassuring experience for your child, ensuring they feel at ease and completely comfortable before any dental procedures. We understand that visiting the dentist can sometimes be an unfamiliar or even intimidating experience for children, which is why our team is dedicated to making it as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. By fostering a positive dental experience from an early age, we aim to support their oral health journey and help establish healthy habits that last a lifetime.

Gum Treatments

Healthy gums are the foundation of a beautiful smile and overall oral health. If you are experiencing swelling, soreness, bleeding, or infection in the tissues supporting your teeth, you may be showing signs of gingivitis or periodontal disease. These conditions, if left untreated, can lead to more serious issues such as tooth loss and impact your overall health.
At our practice, our expert team specialises in diagnosing and treating gum-related problems to restore and maintain optimal oral health. From deep cleaning treatments like scaling and root planing to ongoing maintenance and guidance on at-home care, we provide comprehensive solutions to improve and protect your gum health.

Restorative Dentistry

Life can be unpredictable, and broken or damaged teeth can occur despite your best efforts to maintain excellent oral hygiene. Whether caused by an accident, decay, or general wear and tear, a damaged tooth can affect not only your appearance but also your ability to eat and speak comfortably. Fortunately, restorative dentistry offers a range of effective solutions to repair broken teeth and restore both function and aesthetics to your smile.
Our skilled dental team specialises in using advanced techniques and materials to rebuild and strengthen damaged teeth. From dental crowns and fillings to veneers and bonding, we offer personalised treatment options tailored to your unique needs.

Dental Emergencies

Dental emergencies can strike unexpectedly, causing pain, discomfort, or distress. Whether it's a sudden toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth due to an accident, we understand how urgent and unsettling these situations can be. That’s why we prioritize providing same-day emergency appointments to address your needs promptly and effectively. Our goal is to alleviate your discomfort, resolve the issue, and get you back to feeling your best as quickly as possible.

Dentures

Dentures have long been a trusted solution for replacing missing teeth, helping individuals regain their ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently. Modern advancements in dental technology have revolutionised the way dentures fit and function, offering greater comfort and stability than ever before. At our practice, we provide high-quality dentures tailored to your specific needs, ensuring a natural look and comfortable fit.

Veneers & Crowns

Veneers are ultra-thin, custom-made shells that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth to correct imperfections and create a flawless appearance. Crowns, on the other hand, encase the entire tooth, providing strength and protection while enhancing its shape and colour. Designed to look and feel natural, veneers and crowns not only improve your smile but also restore your confidence and self-esteem. Our expert team will work closely with you to design a solution that suits your needs, giving you a radiant smile you’ll be proud to show off.

Dental Hygienist

Our dental hygiene service includes professional cleanings to remove plaque, tartar, and stains that daily brushing and flossing might miss. In addition, our hygienist provides personalized advice on oral care routines, dietary tips, and the best techniques for maintaining optimal dental health at home. With consistent care and guidance, you'll have the best chance of preserving your teeth and gums, reducing the likelihood of needing extensive dental treatments in the future. Prioritize your oral health by scheduling an appointment with our experienced dental hygienist today!

Dental Bridgework

Dental bridgework has been a reliable solution for decades, helping patients replace missing teeth and restore the functionality and appearance of their smiles. A dental bridge is a prosthetic device consisting of multiple crown units joined together, designed to "bridge" the gap created by one or more missing teeth. It not only improves your ability to chew and speak but also prevents adjacent teeth from shifting out of position, preserving the structure and alignment of your jaw. By choosing dental bridgework, you can regain confidence in your smile and improve the overall functionality of your teeth. Contact us to learn more about this time-tested and effective solution for filling gaps and enhancing your oral health.

Cosmetic Treatments

Our cosmetic treatments are designed to help you look and feel your best by enhancing your natural beauty and reducing the visible signs of aging. Facial aesthetic treatments offer a non-surgical, minimally invasive way to rejuvenate your appearance, restoring a more youthful and refreshed look. Whether you're looking to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, add volume to areas that have lost elasticity, or simply achieve a more radiant complexion, our treatments are tailored to meet your unique needs and goals.

NHS Dental Charges (Effective from April 2024)

At our practice, we believe in keeping you informed about NHS dental charges to help you plan your dental care with confidence. The amount you pay depends on the type of treatment you need to maintain the health of your mouth, gums, and teeth. Rest assured, you will only be asked to pay once for a complete course of treatment, even if it requires multiple visits to complete. Charges are categorized into three bands: Band 1, Band 2, and Band 3.
If you are not exempt from NHS dental charges, you will need to pay one of the following rates based on the treatment provided. Our team is happy to explain the charges and guide you through the process to ensure complete transparency and understanding. Your oral health is our priority, and we’re here to provide quality care at an accessible cost.

Some of our lovely REVIEWS

Helpful and Friendly

I have just joined the dental practice and found the staff very professional. The dentist and dental nurse were very helpful and friendly. Felt at ease and I received a lot of useful information about the condition of my teeth. My last dentist felt like I was going through a car wash so it’s nice to be treated as a patient not a customer.

Richard Marvin

One of best I’ve experienced

I've been with this dental practice for around 10 years and I have to say this is one of best I have ever experienced. I finally decided to have some wonky front teeth sorted here, and they did an absolutely amazing job. Definitely 5 stars!

Dave Hunt

Would highly recommend this service

What an absolutely fantastic experience. Since moving to Dorset I've been concerned about finding a new dentist as I've had bad experiences in the past. I needn't have worried. Friendly helpful and professional from the moment I walked through the door. Would highly recommend this service. If I could give 6 starts I would. Thanks to all the staff at The Neighbourhood Centre

I highly recommend this practice

After leaving a dentist who neglected issues I had, I am so happy to have found a dentist who is such a credit to her profession. The reception staff are really helpful too. My dentist and her dental nurse provided excellent care and made me feel so at ease. I highly recommend this practice. They also made the dentist experience an easy one for my daughter. She is only 2 and they were so patient with her and made sure she didn't feel scared. This meant a lot to me knowing future visits will be easy.

They really put me at ease

My dental experience was very positive mainly due to the friendly and relaxing manner of the dentist and her assistant. They really put me at ease both during my check up and when I had a filling. My dentist was very informative throughout with regards to treatment options.
