Affordable and Effective Membership

Our Practice is restricted to serving its Members and those seeking Membership.
By restricting the numbers of patients in the Practice we can ensure that we have time available for our Members when they need it.

Membership entitles you to up to three visits to see the dentist, whether for examination or consultation; two visits to see the hygienist and all clinically necessary radiographs in each year.

We offer a reduced cost Membership for children as long as one or both parents are Members, which can continue until the year in which the child reaches the age of eighteen.

out-of-hours assistance

At home, the Practice has its own emergency number to call for out-of-hours assistance.

Over the years my front teeth were becoming more crowded and crooked, and I was very self-conscious of my smile. I thought the only remedy would be to remove teeth in the future and put up with unattractive teeth.

Angeline put forward the idea of Invisalign. If it worked, it seemed like a miracle!

The whole procedure was very well explained, and after only a few weeks the retainers were comfortable to wear and hardly noticeable. They were easy to clean and take in and out.

I am absolutely delighted with the end result. It only took six months to achieve. My teeth are straight with no crowding, and I feel confident with my smile again.
