Tooth decay and gum disease are not inevitable.  Our aim is to help you prevent dental problems from occurring for you and your family

We currently provide our preventative programme as part of our commitment to the NHS for which there is no charge.

Although we recommend a dental examination from 2 ½ years old we are very happy and keen to advise parents on good dental care from pregnancy onwards to make sure your baby has the best start in dental health.

We also provide visits to the local schools to give tooth brushing and diet advice to Year 1 and Year 3 age groups.

We liaise with the local Health Visitors in giving advice for post natal and toddler groups.
