If you have a dental emergency whilst we are closed, please use our online contact form on this page.
If it cannot wait, and you need urgent treatment on a weekend, bank holiday or evening after 5pm, please call 03001020247
Due to the changes to our NHS contract and the recall guidelines, if you are an NHS patient it is now standard to receive one check-up per year - unless you are higher risk of disease progression.
Unfortunately we have recently been made aware that Welsh Government have contractually restricted the numbers of new NHS patients we can accept. At the present time we will not be accepting any new NHS for the foreseeable future - unless a currently registered patient would like to register their child or spouse.
We do accept new patients from the Cardiff & Vale Health Board centralised waiting list, please fill in the form to register yourself by clicking here.
A scale & polish is no longer an NHS treatment item. It can be provided on the NHS but only if you require it for health reasons, such as removal of deep tartar that increases risk of diseases of the gums. General scaling and stain removal can be provided on a private basis.
Most COVID-19 restrictions have now been lifted, but if you test positive for COVID-19 we would request you reschedule your appointment unless it is an emergency..
If you require out-of-hours emergency dental treatment, please call CAV 24/7 on 03001020247
We are very happy to inform you that the practice has recently completed the BDA Good Practice "Return to face-to-face assessment" course.
This has helped us comply with the new requirements that are needed to ensure everything is in place for the practice to be safe for patients and staff during the Covid pandemic.
Our Story
The practice was established by Tim's parents, Rob & Sheila Phillips, who have since retired from dentistry. In 2008 Tim came to Fairwater Green to take over the running of the practice and over the years has developed it into the four surgeries.
Extensive refurbishments were carried out to establish two additional new dental surgeries with the latest equipment and disabled access.
Our practice is a member of the British Dental Association’s Good Practice Scheme - the leading quality assurance framework for UK dental practices.
This means that our practice is committed to keeping up to date with and providing quality dental care to nationally agreed standards of good practice in order to provide the best care for you – our patients.
Welcome to Fairwater Green Dental Practice
