Looking for a dentist near you? Welcome to Sturminster Dental Care

Serving patients throughout Sturminster Newton

At your first appointment with Sturminster Dental Care you’ll receive a full dental health assessment. We like to find out as much as we can about you and your previous dental care. That way, we can offer you the best possible service and expertise.

During a thorough examination using photographs, x-rays and scans your dentist will check the health of your head, neck and inside your mouth. This will provide you with a complete understanding of the health of your mouth and teeth and allows us to recommend a personal dental health plan and recall routines best suited to your individual needs.

Before we begin, you’ll need to complete a medical history to ensure we can also fully cater to your medical needs.

Your dental health assessment will review:

  • Signs of tartar build up and decay
  • Identify any chips and cracks
  • Health of gums
  • Condition and functionality of any existing restorations such as fillings, crowns, bridges or dentures
  • Identify any concerns with your bite
  • Jaw alignment and clicking
  • Signs of stress and teeth grinding
  • Oral cancer screening
  • Cosmetic restoration options

Our dentists are committed to providing you with high-quality dental care, using the latest equipment, materials, procedures, techniques and expert advice to offer you a complete insight into your dental health.

If you would like to book a dental health assessment with Sturminster Dental Care or to find out more about what we could do for you, please give our team a call on 01258 473397.

12th September 2025

I have complete trust in my dentist and the other staff are always extremely helpful.

10th September 2025

I was very satisfied with the treatment and care I received at my appointment, as I always have been.

9th September 2025

Excellent prompt response to a broken tooth requiring a filling/crown although the initial timescale for completing the work was delayed. The timescale was subsequently improved following replacement of a a temporary filing.

9th September 2025

The dentist is extremely professional and puts patients at ease.

8th September 2025

This was an extra appointment which was made for me between my regular checkups because à tooth was sensitive and I wanted it checked.I saw Ian as always and he was very kind and supportive. He explained that the filling is shallow and may need more work in the future, but he applied a cover and we agreed to monitor it. Problem solved. Thanks Ian!

7th September 2025

The efficiency, competence, and pleasant manner of the dentist. I had felt slightly anxious after the retirement of my previous dentist in whom I had great faith and disappointment that I could not register with Ian. This appointment with Mike Wiktor was a great start to dispelling those negative feelings.

6th September 2025

The team are all very courteous, helpful with queries and timely in their service.

5th September 2025

Professional throughout and just fantastic!

5th September 2025

Absolutely everyone made me feel that I was important to them. It went a long way to make me feel less nervous for my appointment.

3rd September 2025

Everything is fine. One comment re timing: the minor problem with appointments running late (which I accept is sometimes unavoidable) is that it can make parking very difficult - because the small car park is still full from the previous appointments.

2nd September 2025

Very professional service. Everyone is helpful and friendly. The car magazines in the loung (aka waiting room) are the latest so no problem with if the previous patient overruns a bit.I have dental plan with Stur Dental Care which is good value, in my opinion.

2nd September 2025

Friendly, spotlessly clean. Good treatment.

29th August 2025

29th August 2025

28th August 2025

The friendliness and courtesy of the personel. I am a nervous patient and my dentist always talks to me in a relaxed and reassuring manner.

28th August 2025

Everything completed by competent and knowledgeable staff. Up to date with IT and dental practices. Everyone is welcoming, smiles and able to speak intelligible English. Thank you.

27th August 2025

All the staff from reception through to the hygienist, nurses and dentists are always welcoming and helpful . The level of care is excellent and everything is always explained.

27th August 2025

First of all, the reception staff are always pleasant and polite, and deal with you as soon as they can- sometimes the surgery is busy!Secondly, the clinician always shows proper old-fashioned courtesies when greeting you and saying goodbye after a consultation. He explains what treatment he is going to do with any possible outcomes, and always puts my mind at ease. A thoroughly easy and pleasant experience, regardless of what treatment is being performed. I have complete confidence in my dentist- and I'm sure the same can be said for all the clinicians at the practice.

27th August 2025

A problem with a previous treatment with a different dentist in the practice was sorted quickly and efficiently and more importantly cheaper than I thought it would be.
