A dentist in Deal has relocated after splashing out £1.3 million on fitting out a new site.

The Mydentist dental care provider has expanded from its previous Stanhope Road site to new premises on Broad Street.

All dentists and staff have made the move, with appointments now taking place in the new venue. The practice has some 7,000 patients on its books.

Nathalie Gwilliam, Mydentist area development manager, said: “We’ve been working very hard to relocate to a more accessible site in Deal, so to see the new practice finally open is fantastic.

“Our aim was to meet the needs of our patients and our team here in Deal now and in the future, and feedback so far has been extremely positive.”

Kate Hayward, practice manager at the Deal site, added: "We look forward to welcoming patients into the practice over the coming weeks and months."
