The Moore Dental Care Plan

Whether you are a new or existing patient, we would like to welcome you to our practice.

At Moore Dental Care we provide high-quality treatment in a friendly environment. We are committed to continuing dental education and keeping abreast of the changes in modern dentistry. 
We encourage preventative techniques – helping you to understand how to maintain the health of your mouth and keep it free of tooth decay and gum disease.

I am delighted to offer the Moore Dental Plans – my own membership scheme, which enables us to provide you with
the treatment and support necessary to control dental disease and restore your mouth to full fitness.

Our modern health-promoting approach with continuing care means:

Your choice for dental care with us

As individuals we are having to make more and more provision for our own health needs. We at Moore Dental Care believe that the best way of making treatment affordable, without compromising our high-quality care, is to offer you membership of my own Dental Care Plans which provide the following benefits:

Your child's dental care

Children are born free of dental disease, yet by adulthood a significant proportion of the population has active gum disease and most people have experienced some tooth decay and even tooth loss. It is our belief that disease can be prevented.
Our aim is to provide your child with the best dental care available to secure their dental health.
We ask patients to bring their children with them from birth so that we can see them regularly to help them grow up free from dental disease.
For more information on the best option for your child’s dental care please ask a member of our team.
