A big hello from our practice

Our luxurious, private dental practice in Exeter City Centre offers a wide range of dental services under one roof, and our goal is to take the stress out of going to the dentist. We believe in consistency, so once you’re happy with your dentist, you’ll see them every time you visit us.

We’ve made sure our practice is a relaxing place to come to. When you arrive, our friendly receptionists will welcome you and take your coat. While you wait, you can sink into one of our comfy chairs with a cup of coffee and a glossy magazine.

Frequently asked questions

Is teeth whitening right for me?

Whitening can be an important part of a smile makeover. We always check the suitability of your teeth, as it may not be recommended for some patients with high sensitivity. It’s important to know that we may not be able to treat all of your teeth: whitening can’t alter the colour of fillings, crowns, veneers, for example. Your dentist can explain and suggest any options open to you.

I’m a nervous patient. Can you help me?

We do understand that some people really struggle with dental treatment. But we have lots of ways to help put you at ease. Please just tell us how you feel and what worries you, and then we can work together to decide on the right approach.

How often do I need a check-up?

Generally we recommend twice yearly check-ups every six months. However, this varies on a case by case basis. Your Bupa Dental Care dentist will talk to you about when and how often we need to see you.

Do I have to have Bupa insurance or be a Bupa member to get dental treatment?

No, Bupa Dental Care practices are open to everyone. If you do have Bupa dental insurance, at selected practices we can guide you through your claim.

I’m a dentist. How do I refer a patient to you?

First, please check that our practice offers the services you’re looking for, then simply use the referral form on our contact page. Do feel free to give us a call and tell us what you’re looking for.
