General dental care

At Academy Dental Care, we believe in providing professional, high quality dental care for your long term benefit. We believe in modern preventive dentistry and aim to help you keep your teeth for life.

We offer a comprehensive range of general dental treatments and dedicated hygienists to help you maintain healthy gums, fresh breath and outstanding oral health.

We are currently taking on new patients, so please feel free to call our helpful reception team on 01276 33363 for further information and to book a new patient examination. All new adult patients will benefit from our £50 New Patient Exam discount, with Children's dentistry being FREE.

As a new patient, on arrival at the practice, you will be asked to complete a Medical History Form. Please therefore arrive at least ten minutes before your scheduled appointment time.

If however, you wish to complete this form in advance, then please click the button on the right hand side of this page to download this form and bring it with you to your appointment.

Your New Patient Examination is an appointment that will include the following:

• Time - to go through your Medical History Form and to discuss any concerns and/ or aspirations you have with your smile.

• All necessary low radiation digital x-rays - to detect any underlying cavities or decay. (small x-rays are included in this appointment - there are no hidden charges).

• Thorough dental examination - to assess the health of your teeth, gums and mouth.

• FREE Velscope, soft tissue screening - an oral cancer screen to put your mind at rest and at no extra cost. For further information on the Velscope system, please click: www.velscope.com

• Education and advice - to provide you with useful hints and tips that will help you look after your oral health on a daily basis.


Once you have come to see us, regular routine dental examinations, regular visits to your hygienist and by looking after your oral health on a daily basis, you can help avoid the traditional pattern of fillings and extractions.
