At The Bristol Dental Practice, we’ve worked hard to create a culture of clinical excellence. After 35 years, we’re truly proud to be considered one of the best dentists in Bristol. But what’s behind this winning formula? And if you’re looking for the best possible dental care, what can you expect from visiting us?
A team of experts
Whether you’re booking a check-up or require specialist dental treatment, you need to know you’re in experienced hands. We have a team of trusted and highly skilled dentists, who regularly teach at universities and consult in hospital cases. Their expertise spans areas including dental sleep, Invisalign and facial aesthetics.
Leading the team is our Principal Dentist, Dr Jonathan Cochrane. His pioneering approach is one of the key reasons we’re celebrated for being so different to other practices. As well as being a member of two Royal Colleges of Surgeons (in Edinburgh and England), Dr Cochrane holds a Master’s degree in Dental Implantology.
A specialist dental clinic
Many dental issues need specialist treatment that falls beyond the remit of a general dental practitioner. As a large practice, we’re able to treat complex and multi-disciplinary cases right here – with no need for outside referrals. Our team includes dentists with individual specialisms, from oral surgery and orthodontics to cosmetic dentistry.
With this diverse skillset, we offer specialist treatments such as oral biopsies, endodontics (root canals), prosthodontics (like crowns, veneers and dentures), and dental implants. We also carry out tooth extraction, including wisdom teeth, which can often be subject to lengthy waiting list times elsewhere.
These in-house skills are complemented by advanced specialist equipment and processes, which aren’t always available through other clinics. These include advanced dental scanning, such as 3D CBCT technology and intra-oral scanning. Our patients can also benefit from Digital Smile Design, which uses digital imaging technology to show the effect of different treatments – essentially giving you the tools to predict, and plan for, the smile you’ve always wanted.
Patient-led dental care
Your comfort, confidence and convenience are always our top priorities. From the very beginning of your journey with us, we’ll take time to listen to your goals and understand your situation. Our process is designed to be patient-focused, so at every step, our Treatment Coordinators will be on hand to guide you and offer one-to-one support. And, if dental treatment feels daunting, it may help to know that we offer optional sedation for any procedure – meaning nervous patients can feel completely at ease.
We also believe that exceptional dental care should be open to everyone. Where fees are a concern, we offer the option of interest-free finance for all treatments. This makes it easier to spread the cost of your care, so you can focus on your smile, rather than your budget.
On-demand dentistry in the heart of Bristol
Our practice is based in a beautiful five-storey Georgian townhouse in Bristol’s Queen Square. This prominent, city-centre location makes it easy to reach us when we’re needed; whether you’re based nearby or travelling by car or public transport.
We’re also the only dental practice in Bristol to open seven days a week, by appointment. So, if life is busy or you’re looking for an emergency dentist nearby, you can still find the treatment you need, within a time frame that suits you. Alongside this, you can side step the local frustration of waiting lists – which is especially helpful if you’re experiencing discomfort. In many cases, we can even offer a same-day or next-day appointment.
Why patients think we’re the best dentists in Bristol
For us, the best outcome is a happy, healthy patient. We’ve won multiple industry awards over recent years, but we’re proudest of the testimonials and recommendations we receive. These reviews of real patient experiences highlight the ways we’re able to make a difference – from the reassurance of seeing the same clinician during each visit, to the renewed confidence that comes from feeling comfortable with your smile.
