About us

A practice built on trust since 1971

We are an independent, private dental surgery located in the heart of beautiful Elstead village. Established in 1971, we have been an important part of this community for over five decades.

We provide the highest quality dental treatment for the whole family using state-of-the-art equipment in a calm, friendly environment. We specialise in implantology, periodontology, prosthodontics, and cosmetic dentistry — but we love all aspects of modern dentistry, including seeing children.

"As a mother myself, I feel strongly about preventative dentistry for all the family — this is central to the philosophy and ethos of our practice."
— Dr Minna Miettinen, Principal Dentist & Owner since 2014

Prevention first

We identify and treat potential dental problems before they become painful, complex, or costly — regular care is always the best care.

Gentle, patient-centred care

We make anxious patients our priority. Tell us your concerns and we'll tailor every visit to your comfort level.

Clinical excellence

Our clinicians hold post-graduate qualifications and undergo continuous training to provide the most advanced techniques available.

Common questions

Everything you need to know

Yes — we warmly welcome new patients of all ages. Please call us on 01252 702477 or email info@elsteaddentalsurgery.co.uk to arrange your initial new patient examination (£99).

Please give at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed appointments without contact, will incur a charge of £30 per half hour of clinical time, to cover surgery costs.

Absolutely. Please tell us about your concerns when booking or on arrival and we will tailor your visit around your comfort. Sedation is also available for certain procedures.

Yes. The surgery is on the ground floor and is accessible for disabled patients. Please contact us in advance to discuss your specific requirements so we can prepare for your visit.

This varies by patient — most people benefit from two visits a year, while those with gum concerns may need four. Our team will advise you at your examination. Our membership plans include 2 or 4 hygienist visits to suit your needs.

We are located at The Green in Elstead village — free parking is available around the village green. We are on the ground floor and easy to find.

A titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthetic. Over a few months it fuses with the bone, then a crown is attached on top — looking and functioning just like a natural tooth. We offer full in-house treatment from consultation to final crown, with sedation available.

Joining is quick and easy — no assessment needed. Complete a Direct Debit mandate online at dentalpracticeportal.com/register/967, over the phone, or in person at the surgery. A new patient examination (£99) is required before joining any adult plan.
