3 simple steps to a beautifully aligned smile:

  1. Consultation and planning
    After an initial consultation our dentist will take photos, X-rays and digital scans, or a dental impression, of your teeth. These records will take precise measurements to make your custom made clear aligners for the most comfortable fit.
  2. Transformation
    After your aligners have been custom made, our dentist will fit them ensuring they fit well and are comfortable, so you can begin your straightening journey.

    You’ll need to return to see our dentist every 4 to 6 weeks to check on your progress and provide your next set of aligners, to slowly guide your teeth into position.
  3. Retaining your new smile
    Once your new smile is achieved, you’ll need to wear a retainer to ensure your teeth remain beautifully aligned. Retainers can either be removable clear trays, similar to a mouth guard, or a fixed retainer which are discreetly attached to the back of the teeth for continual support.

I broke a tooth the night before. I turned up unannounced and asked if I might be seen. The reception team were able to book me in and I was treated. Thank you delighted as ever by your excellent service.

The whole experience feels very personal. I have every confidence in what is being said and done. Everything is calm and professional but friendly. I know my teeth and gums are in good hands.

I have used the Practice for 26 years and I have always been very impressed but I now have slight doubts that the high standards will be maintained.

Excellent service from Ian - very personal- he always makes you feel like his most important patient

As always, I feel relaxed as soon as I enter the building. The receptionist on duty always greets me with a smile...and any queries I have (ie future bookings etc) are dealt with immediately. This warm and relaxed atmosphere continues when Mr Makam appears. He greets me with a smile and ushers me into his treatment room with great courtesy, introducing his assistant politely to me. He listens carefully to any concerns I may have, and makes a careful examination of my teeth and gums and throat. He then advises me with smiling kindness on any future changes I myself might care to make...if I want my teeth to continue to be strong and healthy for another 70 odd years!! We laugh together and I leave, knowing I am in excellent hands. Thank you!

The whole team at SDC are super and I cannot fault them. They have always been professional, courteous and frIendly - making the whole dental experience as good as it can be. In view of the dental provision in this country at the moment, I am relieved to be on their books! Both my husband and daughter also attend SDC and are equally satisfied.

Brilliant support from Colin Orman fully explaining the required treatment correcting a previous problem. We have therefore requested a transfer to this dentist for our family. The treatment has clearly worked.

We are relatively new to this practice but very happy we chose them. As you enter, you feel that this is a quality dentist. The environment is very clean, well laid out, and lots of information to look at as you wait to be seen. I like the video screen giving you pictures and information about the team, how long they have been there, and their level of qualification. The receptionist staff are very welcoming as you come in, and they are full of advice. They really seem to know their stuff. Our initial dentist their was great, but we only saw him once as he was leaving to work nearer to home. But we have been told good things of our new one, so we will edit in a line or two about him after we have seen him. But we have to say that we are very impressed with our Hygienist Darren Hutchinson. He is very welcoming and friendly, and he really knows his stuff, leaving your teeth feeling polished and sparkling. When leaving Sturminster Dental Care after a treatment, you do feel satisfied with the work done. This is a top class practice. It is purely a private clinic, but they do offer good, affordable dental plans. I highly recommend this dental practice.

Everyone at the practice were lovely. Their whole attitude was reassuring, kind with no element of patronising or making you feel like you're a nuisance. My checkup identified fillings were needed but there was nothing said that panicked me. Since coming to Sturminster Dental Care i have calmed down with regards visiting the dentist for the first time in 50 years. Thank you guys..

As always, the service provided by the Practice was professional, friendly and caring. I was totally comfortable in trusting the Practice team with the extraction of my tooth. The procedure was stress free and virtually painless. After care to aid my recovery was fully explained to me and a week on my gum has fully healed. A big thank you to everyone.
