The Private Treatment Centre

Our vision

We feel strongly that preventative dental care is far more beneficial to all our patients than simply fixing things when they go wrong. To look after your dental health and avoid tooth decay and gum disease, we strongly encourage regular visits to the practice. These dental check-ups help spot dental diseases in their very early stages - before they becoming a larger, more painful and costly experience. When we see patients at regular intervals we often find there are more options available. So if you feel something is wrong, please don't put things off. We could save you time, money and discomfort.

We strive to deliver clinical excellence and promise for the best levels of patient care. Utilising cutting edge technology, our aim is always to deliver pain-free treatment with the most efficiency.

Whatever your dental needs or smile aspirations, we guarantee to have you smiling in no time.

"We are a highly motivated, friendly and dedicated team. We want you to enjoy your dental experience with us and we pride ourselves on the level of care, attention and communication we offer our patients."
