Meet the team | Somerset Place Dental

the somerset place dental practice

Our team

The practice was taken over in 2023, marking a change of guard at The Somerset Place Dental Practice for the first time in 25 years. The new owners were keen to maintain the high standards of care that the practice was known for but felt it could improve upon the services offered whilst modernising the delivery of care; adding new and innovative treatment options such as implant treatments and digital technology.

All of our staff possess a wealth of experience and have been helping our patients, with a smile on their face for many years. They are committed to serving the people of Glasgow and beyond and do so with professionalism and the warmest of welcomes.

This is a fantastic dental practice. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. I have always had a fear of going to the dentist but since I have been coming here I have had no problems whatsoever.
