Looking after Shawlands since 1935
Shawlands Dental Practice is a long-standing dental clinic in Glasgow, first established in 1935 by dentist Jean Suttie. With a focus on family NHS dentistry, the practice has been providing the highest quality of NHS care for over 85 years, with an unwavering commitment to maintaining healthy mouths and promoting dental hygiene. Our practice has always had an ethos of quality improvement in the way we deliver our care, with a consistent team who have worked together for many years.
Our team of professional dentists, dental nurses, and hygienists are dedicated to providing personalized and comprehensive NHS dental care to patients of all ages, from children to the elderly. We believe that our patients value the continuity of care that we offer, and we take pride in the fact that our team knows our patients and their families well, providing a friendly and welcoming environment for all.
Our Team
At Shawlands Dental Practice, one of our strengths is continuity. Our patients can be assured that they will be cared for by a dentist who knows them and understands their needs. Our team of five dentists has been with the practice for nearly 20 years, and we have seven fully qualified dental nurses with a combined experience of 150 years at the chairside. Our hygienist, Heather, is a valued member of our team, working tirelessly to convince our patients that dental hygiene is essential for maintaining good dental health.
Our Services
At Shawlands Dental Practice, we offer a wide range of NHS dental treatments, including crowns, fillings, and preventative care. We focus on maintaining good dental health, and our treatments are designed to help our patients enjoy healthy mouths, teeth, and gums. We are proud of our long track record of looking after generations of patients and providing affordable NHS treatments that are accessible to all.
In addition to our NHS treatments, we offer a variety of cosmetic dentistry services for patients who require or request specialist dental care. We refer our patients to trusted colleagues in the area for more complex treatments, such as orthodontics, and work in partnership with them to ensure that our patients receive the best possible care.
Our ethos is that prevention is always better than cure, and we emphasize the need for all patients to maintain good dental hygiene. We offer hygienist appointments to help our patients maintain good dental health, and our hygienist works with our patients to provide personalized oral hygiene instructions and advice.
