For a beautiful and healthy smile
About us
We are delighted to welcome you to our family orientated dental practice.
Lam Dental Care is a friendly, patient-focused dental practice committed to providing high-quality care in a welcoming and professional environment.
The practice was first established by Mr Alan Lam in 1987. We have been proudly serving the local community for over 35 years, building long-standing relationships based on trust and excellent care. Following Alan’s leadership, the practice is now proudly run by his two sons, Michael and Jonathan. Having taken over the practice together, Michael and Jonathan have built a wealth of experience, with 13 and 12 years of practice as dentists respectively, continuing the family’s commitment to high-quality, patient-focused care.
Our experienced team offers a wide range of dental treatments, from routine check-ups and preventative care to advanced and cosmetic procedures, all tailored to meet each patient’s individual needs.
We believe in a continual care approach, seeing our patients on a regular basis. Although it is tempting to focus on the more glamorous aspects of cosmetic treatment, basic dental health, which includes the treatment of gum disease and repair of decay, is just as important for the long-term success of achieving a healthy smile!
Affordable PAYGO Quality Dental Care System
All new and old patients including children are very welcome. We believe Pay As You Go System is a fair and flexible for our adult patients. You only pay for the treatment that you need as you need them. All children however are treated Free under the NHS.
The benefits of treating our patients outside the NHS are that we have more time for you, we have the freedom to choose the best materials for you and the most appropriate design that works best for you as an individual.
Our fees are very competitive too. Many items of our service are only slightly more expensive than the NHS fees. Our check up fee is very similar to the NHS fee, currently from £27.40. We offer quick appointments for all treatments and same day emergency appointments too.
We also offer High Quality Cosmetic Dentistry - Veneers, Crowns, Bridges & Cosmetic Dentures and also the very popular Zoom! Professional Tooth Whitening System at very affordable prices. Check out our Price Guide.
