Why Patients Travel From Ainsdale
Ainsdale sits between Southport and Formby on the A565, which makes the 22-mile route to Tower Dental on Devonshire Road one of the simpler dental journeys in the area. For patients in Ainsdale, travelling to Blackpool for private dentistry often comes down to clinical depth — the Tower Dental team includes a dedicated implant specialist, a clinician with a PhD in dental biomaterials, and an associate with an endodontic (root canal) interest. That level of specialist breadth is rarely available at a local village surgery. The 38-minute drive is a reasonable trade-off for that choice.
Treatments We Offer Ainsdale Patients
Tower Dental serves Ainsdale patients across all life stages. Children from 0-17 are covered by the Children's Plan at £9.99/month (check-ups, hygiene, x-rays). Adult care ranges from routine hygienist visits through to cosmetic treatments like veneers (from £471) and Invisalign. Older patients often come for dental implant consultations, handled by implant specialist Dr San Chatterjee. Emergency appointments are available same-day whenever possible.
