Services
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers address severe staining, chips, and gaps by applying custom porcelain shells to teeth. This minimally invasive procedure enhances smile aesthetics while maintaining natural tooth structure. Patients benefit from durable, stain-resistant solutions that mimic natural enamel translucency.
Teeth Straightening
Specialist orthodontists provide tailored alignment solutions using modern braces and clear aligners. Treatment improves bite functionality while creating aesthetically pleasing smiles for patients seeking confidence through dental symmetry.
Dental Implants
Implant solutions replace missing teeth with titanium-rooted prosthetics that integrate with jawbone tissue. This permanent option restores full chewing functionality while preventing bone loss, offering both aesthetic and structural dental benefits.
Gum Disease Treatment
Advanced periodontal therapies address bacterial infections affecting tooth support structures. Custom treatment plans combine deep cleaning techniques with maintenance protocols to halt disease progression and preserve oral health.
Emergency Dental Care
Immediate access to dental trauma management and pain relief for acute oral conditions. Our emergency service handles broken teeth, infections, and severe discomfort with priority scheduling for pain resolution.

Today i visited Priors for the first time. I am an extremely nervous patient (crying just having a check up) but i was made to feel completely at ease and had every step explained in a profesional yet sympathetic manner.

I went to the Priors Dental Practice since the middle of 2019. Had an assessment to join but given no plans or any explanation of what was wrong with my teeth if anything. The consultation took at best 30 minutes which from my previous experience was short. Went for a check up in September 2019 again nothing was mentioned about any concerns. Went again just last week to be told that I needed a whole lot of treatments on my teeth.
Again no explanation just you need to book it with no cost issues until you have to ask for it. I had to wait & then only had approximately 10 min with the hygienist who explained absolutely nothing about the treatment she wanted to do. Went then to see the dentist who said I had treatments with the hygienist again no explanation from the dentist apart from the hygienist is good. For 15 minutes I was charged 95 which was extortion. The whole experience was very poor & very unprofessional all they want to do is charge large amounts for a very poor service. I wouldn't recommend this practice from my experience

I have been to the priors dentist and it is very good you get what you pay for and sometimes more. However my son is at this dentist and I have been paying monthly payments so he can go. But he hadn't been going, I think it may have something to do with the hygienists, he doesn't like the any pain. He couldn't keep to his appointments at other dentists, for other genuine reasons that's why I choose Priors through recommendation.
I am going to stop Priors monthly payments. I would like a package, so if he doesn't go, I can go instead and not waste money so I could at least use it, but they say it's more money, so it has to come to an end. Update I rang prior dentist today I told them about the plan and I wanted to cancel Holly spoke over me when I was trying to explain and she put down the phone. Hope that doesn't happen to anyone else.

Heavy handed painful dental work weeks of pain went back several times but could not resolve the problem except to be called an enigma. Went elsewhere problem solved. I would not recommend this dental practice who seem only interested in taking your money.
