Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium fixtures fused with jawbone. Ideal for restoring function and aesthetics, this treatment suits patients with sufficient bone density. Our specialists use guided bone regeneration and advanced imaging to ensure precise placement and long-term success.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatments correct misaligned teeth and bite issues using fixed braces or clear aligners. Suitable for teenagers and adults, this service improves dental function and facial aesthetics. We employ digital planning tools to create customised, efficient treatment plans for optimal results.
Periodontics
Periodontic care addresses gum disease and recession through non-surgical and surgical interventions. Treatments include deep cleaning, gum grafts, and tissue regeneration. Our specialists focus on preserving natural teeth and enhancing gum health to prevent systemic health complications.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry transforms smiles through veneers, whitening, and bonding. Tailored to individual facial features, these treatments address discolouration, chips, and gaps. We use premium materials and shade-matching technology to create natural-looking, durable aesthetic improvements.
Endodontics
Endodontic procedures save damaged teeth by removing infected pulp and sealing root canals. Using microscopes and 3D imaging, we ensure thorough cleaning and filling. This treatment relieves pain and prevents extraction, maintaining natural tooth structure for improved long-term oral health.

My Dentist referred me to Simon Ellis for specialist treatment, I was sceptical at first, however It soon became apparent that it was good advice, I have now had a range of treatments and at all times Simon explained the process and procedures enabling a full understanding of the treatment. His strive for perfection is impressive even with the smallest detail, I have no problem recommending South Coast Dental to my friends and family, From the Receptionist, Dental Assistants to the Practitioners they are all friendly and considerate. Thank you.

I had three extractions and implants and a bone graft for one of these. What could have been a traumatic experience was not! Fernando G E. carried out my treatment, in a very professional and careful manner. I did not experience any pain. One year on, all are sound and have not caused me any problems. The support staff and the receptionists are excellent too. Thank you all.

My treatment stretched over quite a long time but this was fully explained and adhered to in a long-term plan from the beginning and over the several months I was under Simon Ellis' expert and professional care. I knew what was going to happen throughout my treatment, the timing of the appointments, the monetary costs involved and was monitored exceptionally well from beginning to end by Simon and his professional and caring team.
If I felt anxious at all, this was immediately quelled by Simon and I felt completely reassured. At no point was I left feeling I either didn't know or understand how my treatment was progressing. I have now reached the goal set and am thrilled that I can speak, eat and SMILE at last without any embarrassment to both me and those around me. Thank you Simon for a brilliant end result that seemed impossible to me to start with.
Your expertise, skill, professionalism, caring attitude and approach are second to none! You have a fantastic team around you too from ringing the bell to enter the clinic to leaving the premises after treatment. Well done to you all and thank you. Joyce Brown

I had two implants done on Tuesday by Mr Furze. It was amazing. I was so impressed. A great team, very professional, kind and everything was explained to me. I actually felt excited half way through the procedure. I was so pleased that I had chosen the SouthCoast Dental team. Great music with the staff humming along. I would recommend you to anyone.

Having previously had an implant fitted, I decided that South Coast was the best placed for a root canal treatment with a post fitted for a crown. Octavian explained the procedure and how it would be carried out, even explaining the microscope and how it helped him. The whole experience was excellent: both Octavian and his nurse, along with all the rest of the staff were brilliant and put me completely at ease. I would not hesitate to comer back again.

My wife has had amazing treatment at South Coast Dental. She has had the best treatment ever from Fernando for implants and bone grafts. he is kind and patient and very professional. I would definitely highly recommend him and his team. Beverly the hygienist is the best hygienist she has ever had, and takes time and trouble each appointment. She is a nervous patient and feels reassured by the way they treat her and the success of all of her treatments.

A previous consultation at another practice had left me emotionally traumatised and it took me a couple of years to seek another consultation at a different practice for the implants I needed. From the moment I entered the South Coast premises in Dorchester I knew I would be in safe hands. Both Naveed and David explained everything clearly, were personable and professional and always made me feel at ease. I have no hesitation in recommending them. The customer service at the Practice is excellent. I can't stop smiling at my new smile! Thank you.
