Why Patients Travel From Larches
From Larches PR2, Tower Dental is 15 miles via the A583. What brings patients from Larches through to Blackpool tends to be treatment-specific: cosmetic dentistry where the 3D preview at the £40 Smile Consultation helps them see the outcome before committing; dental implants where our implant specialist Dr San Chatterjee handles the full pathway; or emergency appointments where same-day slots are available Monday to Saturday. For patients in Preston, Lancashire, that combination is uncommon locally.

Tower Dental serves Larches 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).
