Your trusted dentist near Rhiwbina

Friendly, professional dental care for Rhiwbina patients at our Whitchurch practice

We look after patients of all ages at our practice in Whitchurch, around ten minutes from Rhiwbina. Some come to us for routine check-ups and hygiene appointments, while others are looking into dental implants, Invisalign clear aligners or cosmetic treatment.

We take time with every new patient. Your first appointment is longer than a standard check-up, so there’s time to talk through any concerns before we recommend anything. If it’s been a while since your last visit, there’s no need to feel awkward about it. We’ll focus on where things are now and what we can do to help. There’s no waiting list, so you can book in straight away.

Your first visit starts with a conversation with our treatment coordinator about any concerns or goals you have. Our nurse will then take digital scans of your teeth and bite, followed by a thorough examination with the dentist. Before you leave, we’ll explain our findings and answer any questions you have. A new patient appointment for children is £37.75.

Yes. Dental anxiety is very common, and we take a calm, understanding approach with every patient. Let us know how you’re feeling when you book, and we’ll make sure you have plenty of time. We’ll explain each step before we begin, and you can ask us to pause at any point. For patients who need extra support, dental sedation is also available.

Do you see children?

Yes, we see patients of all ages, so the whole family can be looked after at the same practice. A new patient appointment for children is £37.75.
