Private Dentistry

We are currently accepting new private patients.

All our patients can choose specific treatments to be carried out privately from tooth whitening to realistic crowns and bridges.

We have a care plan available if you would like to spread the cost of your treatment.

Our hygienist can help you to keep your teeth and gums healthy. You can have beautiful white coloured fillings on any of your teeth or perhaps treat yourself to an Air Polishing treatment for a fresher, brighter smile!

We now use the Medit intra-oral scanner at our practice to improve the quality of the crowns, onlays, bridges and veneers we are able to offer.

NHS Dental Care

Our dental practice is open for all routine appointments to NHS patients who have attended within the last two years . If you need a dentist please contact us by phone and you will be given advice or offered an appointment if appropriate. For those who have not seen us before and require urgent NHS dental care you can still use NHS 111 online. Through 2024 to April 2025 we are able to offer treatment under the Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West (BOB) NHS flexible commissioning scheme. This provides some access slots to:

People who have not attended a dental practice for two years

People who have relocated to the area

Looked After Children

Families of Armed Forces personnel

Asylum Seekers

Those with clinical/medical need that requires attendance at a dental practice

Patients who need dental check ups in support of hospital treatment

Pregnant and nursing mothers

We are committed to improving the quality of dental care we offer and are still involved in three national clinical research projects. We are looking into the affect of lifestyle choices on oral health (ENHANCE-D), the best way of treating deep tooth decay (SCRiPT) and alternative ways to treat toothache following tooth decay (PIP). We would like to thank our patients who have agreed to be part of the studies and helped to make us the lead national recruiter in SCRiPT.  

Latest News

We hope you like the changes we have made to our reception area to make it more accessible for all our patients.

We are delighted to welcome Naomi Douglas, Holly Beacon and Megan Ayris as the newest members of our dental team. Dr Douglas, who trained in Bristol Dental School with Dr Poole, has previously worked in Yorkshire and Australia. Holly and Megan are currently training to be dental nurses with Buckinghamshire college but will be based at the practice over the next 18 months.

We are also pleased to announce that Ashin Joseph has now completed the NHS international graduate dental therapy programme. This will enable her to provide dental therapy and dental hygiene at the practice alongside Vish Senthilkumar.

Finally, we have now completed the modernisation of our upstairs surgeries and new decontamination room. We hope you notice the extra space this has created.
