Treatments at Tower Dental Blackpool
Cosmetic Dentistry in Blackpool — What's Available and How to Choose
Blackpool patients searching for cosmetic dentistry in Blackpool will find that the range and quality of cosmetic treatments available varies significantly between practices. Not all dentists in Blackpool offer the full spectrum of cosmetic procedures and not all who do have the level of training to produce consistently excellent results.
Composite bonding in Blackpool — Tower Dental's most popular cosmetic treatment. Same-day cosmetic improvement that repairs chips, closes gaps and creates a uniformly bright, proportionate smile in a single appointment. This treatment requires artistic skill as much as clinical skill — the results at Tower Dental are consistently described as stunning by our patients.
Veneers in Blackpool — Both porcelain (long-lasting, exceptional aesthetics, 10–20 year lifespan) and composite veneers (same-day, reversible, lower cost) are available at Tower Dental. Every veneer case begins with digital smile design — you see your expected result before any preparation begins.
Teeth whitening in Blackpool — Only GDC-registered dentists can legally supply prescription-strength whitening gel in the UK. Tower Dental uses the Boutique whitening system, which is more effective than products available in shops or beauty salons.

Dental Plans in Blackpool — Making Private Care Affordable
The biggest barrier to accessing high-quality private dentistry in Blackpool is the perception that it is unaffordable. Tower Dental's dental membership plans directly address this. From £9.99 per month for children and from £19.50 per month for adults, our plans provide:
Two dental examinations per year, two professional hygienist cleans per year, unlimited emergency appointments with no additional fee, worldwide dental accident and emergency insurance and 15% off all treatments. From £19.50 per month (£234.00 per year), the plan pays for itself simply through the included appointments — any emergency care, treatment discounts and worldwide cover are effectively free.
For patients in Blackpool managing gum disease or with higher hygiene needs, the Periodontal Plan at £24.99 per month provides four hygienist appointments per year along with deep periodontal cleaning and gum health monitoring. View all membership plans →
What kind of dental practice is Tower Dental in Blackpool?
An Established Private Dental Practice in Blackpool
When patients across Blackpool search for a dentist in Blackpool, Tower Dental at 302a Devonshire Road FY2 0TW takes a distinctive, patient-centred approach. We are not an NHS practice — we are Blackpool's established private dental practice, dedicated entirely to delivering the highest standard of dental care to patients who value quality, expertise and genuine clinical excellence above all else.
Our principal dentist Dr Sarah Metias (GDC 114267) holds the Membership of the Joint Dental Faculties from the Royal College of Surgeons of England (MJDF RCS, 2011) — an advanced postgraduate qualification. With extensive clinical experience and a CQC Registered Manager designation, Dr Metias has built Tower Dental into a well-established private dental practice in Blackpool and the wider Fylde Coast.
Our advanced implant dentist, Dr San Chatterjee (GDC 84643), has a special interest in implant dentistry. Our academic clinician, Dr Alaaeldin Elraggal (GDC 300605), holds a PhD in Dental Biomaterials. This depth of qualification, concentrated within a single Blackpool dental practice, is a strength of our team.
For patients searching for dentists in Blackpool who want more than basic treatment — who want a practice where the team genuinely cares, the environment is calm and welcoming and every clinical decision is based on their best interests — Tower Dental is the answer. Rated rated 5 stars by our patients., we are consistently Rated highly by the patients we care for
What to Look for When Choosing Dentists in Blackpool
The GDC registration number (which every practising dentist in the UK must have and display) confirms basic qualification. But it does not differentiate between a newly qualified BDS graduate and a dentist with decades of postgraduate specialisation. Here is what to look for beyond the GDC number when comparing dentists in Blackpool:
Postgraduate qualifications. Look for MJDF, MRD, MClinDent, MSc, or specialist registrations. These indicate investment in clinical development beyond the minimum required. At Tower Dental, our team holds the MJDF RCS England and a PhD in Dental Biomaterials — qualifications that represent years of additional study and demonstrated clinical excellence.
CQC registration. The Care Quality Commission regulates dental practices in England. Check that your chosen Blackpool dental practice is CQC-registered and has an active, positive inspection record. Tower Dental is CQC-regulated with Dr Metias as the Registered Manager — taking personal accountability for every clinical standard at the practice.
Patient reviews — and how the practice responds to them. The volume and recency of 5-star patient reviews on Google tells you about the patient experience. But look also at how the practice responds to reviews — practices that engage thoughtfully with patient feedback, including any critical reviews, demonstrate that they genuinely care about the patient experience rather than just managing their reputation.
Transparency about treatment and pricing. A trustworthy dental practice provides a written quote before any treatment begins, explains why each treatment is being recommended and tells patients honestly when a treatment is not appropriate. Tower Dental does all of this as standard. We do not upsell treatments patients do not need.
How do I find a good dentist in Blackpool?
The Complete Guide to Finding a Dentist in Blackpool (2026)
Choosing the right dentist in Blackpool is one of the most important decisions you make for your long-term health. The quality of dental care varies enormously between practices — in terms of clinical qualifications, diagnostic equipment, materials used, treatment planning philosophy and the patient experience. This guide is written to help Blackpool residents make the most informed possible decision when choosing a dental practice.
NHS vs Private Dentist in Blackpool — Understanding the Difference
The distinction between NHS and private dental care in Blackpool is important and often misunderstood. NHS dentistry provides a safety net of essential treatments at subsidised cost — but it operates within strict clinical and material constraints. NHS dentists are limited in the materials they can use, the treatments they can provide and the time they can allocate per patient. Within these constraints, NHS dentists provide valuable care. But there are significant limits on what can be achieved.
A private dentist in Blackpool operates without these constraints. Private care means: appointments of whatever length the clinical situation requires, access to premium materials and the latest diagnostic technology, cosmetic treatments not available on the NHS and a patient experience that is fundamentally different in its unhurried, personal nature. It means your dentist can spend 30 minutes examining your teeth and discussing your concerns — not 10 minutes managing a patient list.
Tower Dental Blackpool is a private practice. We do not provide NHS treatment. This is a deliberate choice that allows us to deliver the standard of care we believe every patient deserves, without the material and time constraints that NHS dentistry imposes. Our dental membership plans are designed to make the financial predictability of private care accessible to everyone.
Emergency Dentist in Blackpool — When You Need Help Fast
Dental emergencies do not keep office hours. Tower Dental offers same-day emergency dental appointments in Blackpool — call 01253 353759 as early in the day as possible. We see emergency patients from all Blackpool postcodes for toothache, dental abscesses, knocked-out or broken teeth, lost fillings or crowns and soft tissue injuries.
Tower Dental is open Monday to Friday, 8:30am–5:30pm, with same-day emergency slots held each weekday. Adult and Periodontal plan members receive unlimited emergency appointments at no additional charge.
If you are experiencing facial swelling that is closing your eye, spreading to your neck, affecting your ability to swallow, or accompanied by a fever above 38°C — go directly to Blackpool Victoria Hospital A&E. These are signs that a dental infection has spread beyond the local area and requires urgent medical assessment.
Why do Blackpool patients choose Tower Dental?

Why Patients Choose Tower Dental as Their Dentist in Blackpool
There are many dentists in Blackpool — but there is only one Tower Dental. Here is what we focus on:
Postgraduate Qualifications Rarely Found in Private Practice
The gap between a dentist who holds a basic BDS degree and one who holds advanced postgraduate qualifications is enormous — in terms of clinical depth, diagnostic ability, treatment planning and technical skill. Dr Sarah Metias holds the MJDF from the Royal College of Surgeons of England. Dr San Chatterjee holds training in implant dentistry. These are not weekend course certificates — they are rigorous academic and clinical qualifications that place their holders among clinicians committed to high standards of care.
When you choose Tower Dental as your dentist in Blackpool, you are choosing a practice where the clinical leadership is at advanced implant care.
Caring for Nervous Patients in Blackpool
Dental anxiety is far more common than most people realise. Studies suggest approximately a significant share of UK adults experience this. The consequences of this avoidance — accelerating decay, gum disease, tooth loss — are entirely preventable.
Tower Dental has built a reputation across Blackpool as the practice that nervous patients finally feel safe in. Our environment is calm and unhurried. Our team never judge, rush or minimise anxiety. Dr Metias has specific expertise in treating anxious patients and many of our most loyal patients are people who had not visited a dentist in Blackpool for 5, 10 or even 20 years before finding us.
Genuinely Patient-First Clinical Advice
Every patient who visits Tower Dental receives clinical advice based entirely on their best interests — not on generating the highest possible treatment revenue. We will tell you when a treatment you have researched is not appropriate for your situation. We will tell you when watchful monitoring is better than immediate intervention. We will refer you to a specialist when your case falls outside the most appropriate scope of our care.
This honesty is important to us. It is the foundation of the trust that our patients have expressed in their reviews — and it is non-negotiable at Tower Dental Blackpool.
