Our clinic
Located on the north end of Biggar High Street our Practice covers two floors of clinic space. We believe we have created a comfortable and relaxed environment, with a mix of a traditional building façade and modern, high quality treatment clinics within.
We want every patient who visits us to feel relaxed and confident about their appointment, and we are sure the warm welcome our patients receive each and every visit helps towards this goal.
The equipment we have, and continue to invest in, puts us at the cutting edge of dental technology and process. Whether it be standard procedures or elected cosmetics, our patients have a full range of treatments to choose from. This now includes Facial Aesthetics, which is carried out in our first floor clinic by qualified dental practitioners.
