A Personal Approach to Dentistry in Sturminster Newton

If you are looking for a dentist in Sturminster Newton who offers attentive, high-quality care in a calm and professional setting, we would be delighted to welcome you to Sturminster Dental Care.

We provide comprehensive dental care for patients across Sturminster Newton and the surrounding Dorset villages, focusing on prevention, long-term oral health and personalised treatment planning. Our approach ensures you receive dedicated time, careful attention and dentistry tailored to you.

Your First Appointment

Your first visit is designed to give you a complete understanding of your oral health.

We begin by discussing your dental history, any concerns you may have and what you would like to achieve from your care. You will also complete a detailed medical history form so we can ensure your treatment is appropriate and safe.

Your dentist will then carry out a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, jaw and surrounding areas. Where necessary, we use digital X-rays, clinical photography and scans to build a clear and accurate picture of your dental health.

This comprehensive assessment allows us to identify issues early and provide clear, professional advice. Following your examination, we will explain our findings and, if required, create a personalised dental care plan and recall schedule suited to your needs.

Your Dental Health Assessment Will Review:

  • Signs of tartar build-up and tooth decay
  • Any chips, cracks or tooth wear
  • The health and condition of your gums
  • Existing restorations such as fillings, crowns, bridges or dentures
  • Your bite and jaw alignment
  • Jaw clicking or discomfort
  • Signs of stress-related grinding or clenching
  • A routine oral cancer screening
  • Cosmetic or restorative treatment options, if desired

By taking this detailed approach, we ensure you have a complete understanding of your oral health and the options available to you.

It was an extraction of a broken molar which seemed to me to be quite a challenge. Ian explained what he was going to do and the whole operation went outstandingly well in my opinion. I was very well looked after.

This was an emergency appointment, I thought perhaps I had a gum infection.Antibiotics were recommended. 3 X- rays were taken. I was perfectly happy with my treatment. Since when the swelling on my face has gone down and the gum is more comfortable.

30th April 2026

I have been having regular checkups with Helen and Brian .. and more recently Mannie. All staff delightful and professional. Very friendly reception staff, lovely, professional Helen the hygienist and the charming, thorough and very informative Mannie. The questionnaire included a question regarding choice of treatment. My answer may have appeared negative but merely reflected the fact that I didn't need treatment owing to the excellent ongoing advice by Helen and Mannie. So see you in 6 months x
