Our Mission
Our goal is to provide specialist care to all those in need of surgical dentistry in a calm and relaxing environment. Equipped with the latest in dental technology, we also provide full disabled access, with ample free parking, and in a location that is convenient and easily accessible.
We are very aware of the anxieties faced by some of those attending dental appointments. Hence we aim to provide an ambiance whereby you, the patient, are in control. We welcome questions and conversation on how we may provide a more relaxing experience for you. We also provide sedation in the clinic for those who need it.
