About Lighthouse Dental Practice in Ipswich

Our practice philosophy is to help our patients to reach and enjoy long-term dental health. In order to achieve these goals, we emphasise the importance of prevention, since, as it is well known, prevention is always better than cure. By following our advice, we are confident that our patients will be able to reduce the need for future treatment. However, if treatment is necessary, we will always endeavour to perform it with the outmost care and to the highest standards.

• We actively encourage our patients to communicate freely with us about any aspect of their care so we can adapt our ways of working according to everyone’s individual needs.
• We emphasise patient comfort by having a calm, reassuring and professional approach to dental treatment.
• We offer good guarantees for procedures that can be guaranteed.
• We follow strict hygiene guidelines. In response to the new recommendations from the department of health regarding improved cross infection control, we have now made changes to our surgery and have also set up a dedicated sterilisation room. This will help decrease the risk of cross-contamination so you can be treated in an evironment where the risk of transferring a disease from one person to another is kept as low as practicably possible.
