The people who will look after you

You will see the same dentist each visit. That is the whole point of a practice this size, and it is the thing patients tell us they notice first.

The practice

QueensWood is a private dental practice near Okehampton, set in the grounds of Wood MediSpa on the Wood Estate at South Tawton. The setting is a deliberate part of how the practice works. It is quiet, and it feels a long way from a traditional dental surgery, with free parking at the door and time built into every appointment.

We are the only dental practice in the area equipped with EMS AirFlow, the gold standard in pain free hygiene and Guided Biofilm Therapy. It cleans using air, warm water and a fine powder rather than scraping and polishing, so you leave with a completely clean, smooth smile and none of the gritty paste or the cold water shock most people associate with a hygiene appointment.

Whether you are here for a routine examination or for advanced stain removal, the equipment on site means a gentler, temperature controlled experience throughout. The practice is small by design, so you see the same dentist at every visit, and every fee we charge is published.

Who we look after

We are an adult only practice, so we do not treat children. If you are looking for a dentist for a child, do ring us and we will gladly point you towards a practice nearby that takes them.

Come and see us

One appointment is all it takes to know where you stand. If you would rather ring and ask something first, please do.
