Dartford Road Dental Centre

The practice was established in the 1920s. It was taken over by Mr Donohoe in 1984. In September 1988, the practice was relocated to new premises at 39 Dartford Road.

Today the practice is set in a parade of shops. The ground floor position means that we have easy wheelchair access with a disabled toilet and no steep stairs for those who are unable to climb them. The practice is air conditioned all year round for your comfort.

In September 2009 we obtained planning permission for a new extension to further improve services and to comply with the new guidelines that are issued by the Department of Health. Construction work on the extension was completed in September 2011 providing another ground floor surgery, a decontamination room, an office and additional storage space. Following completion of the extension, we now have 2 surgeries suitable for our less able patients.

In 2003 the practice achieved the prestigious Investors in People award and has maintained the standard ever since. This award is given to businesses that show a high standard of good practice for training and development of staff.

In 2010 the practice achieved membership of the British Dental Association’s Good Practice Scheme and has maintained membership since. This quality assurance programme recognises commitment to quality.

In 2013 the practice was inspected by the Quality Care Commission and was found to be meeting the standard in all the outcomes investigated.
