About Shotley Bridge Dental Care

Shotley Bridge Dental Care welcomes patients to newly relocated, purpose-built premises in Blackhill, Consett, in the former doctors’ surgery buildings on Queens Road. The practice is described as being about a mile from its old Front Street location in Shotley Bridge, and it offers options for booking consultations as well as remote consultation requests where patients can send photos for an assessment. For people who feel embarrassed to smile or worry about what their teeth look like in family photos, the practice states it can help. Care is provided through a mix of NHS and private dentistry, alongside cosmetic treatments, teeth whitening, and treatment for wrinkles. Maintaining a healthy smile is supported by regular appointments with the practice’s hygienist/therapist, who provides three- or six-month scale and polish sessions. The practice also highlights “peace of mind” plans starting from £22.83 per month.
