At The Old Surgery we are just as meticulous about our general dentistry as our specialty dentistry.

It is important to remember that the vast majority of the population simply require and deserve really good general dentistry. We believe in doing the basics very well, with the focus on oral health and prevention, and of course paying proper attention to detail and patients needs when treatment is required.
