mydentist 
has recently undertaken a significant merge, relocation and expansion of its Leigh practice following a substantial investment of £2.2 million.
The new mydentist Leigh practice, which is now located on Spinning Gate Shopping Centre, was officially launched by Practice Manager, Philip Morris, and his team on Wednesday 22nd October.
After a project lasting just over 2 years, all the dentists and staff from the previous Leigh sites on Bedford Street and King Street have moved to the new site, where patient appointments are now underway.
The move marks a substantial enhancement for the circa 16,000+ patients of mydentist in the community of Leigh, who will now benefit from a modern, state-of-the-art practice, a greater range of dental treatments and technology, as well as improved travel links and wheelchair and disabled access.
There are 15 surgeries available in total at the new mydentist Leigh practice, with key services offered to its patients. The range of services includes NHS dental care, affordable private treatment options via the mydentist {my}options service, hygiene, and cosmetic services such as whitening, teeth straightening and clear aligners.
Vicky Hampson, mydentist Area Development Manager, commented: “We’ve been working very hard to relocate to a more accessible site in Leigh, so to see the new practice finally open is fantastic. With 15 modern surgeries we now have much more choice for patients, plus our team are benefitting from improved facilities. Our aim was to meet the needs of our patients and our team here in Leigh now and in the future, and feedback so far has been extremely positive.”
“We know that accessing dental care in this region is difficult which is why we’re pleased to be able to offer {my}options, an affordable way to access a dentist when you need one.”
The new mydentist Leigh practice is accepting new patients under {my}options mydentist’s affordable private dental offering. Under {my}options, patients can access private check-ups, essential dental treatments, and cosmetic dental treatments at affordable prices with check-ups costing £59.
A full range of dental treatments is on offer at the practice including teeth whitening, teeth straightening, hygiene appointments, smile makeovers and dental implants.
Philip Morris, Practice Manager at mydentist Leigh, commented: “I am delighted to reveal the new facilities and flexibility of appointment times that we can now offer to our patients. With our recent enhancements and expanded services, we’re well-placed to deliver a higher level of dental care and provide an even more exceptional experience to our community. We look forward to welcoming patients into the practice over the coming weeks and months.”
Jo Platt, MP for Leigh and Atherton, added: “It’s fantastic to have mydentist officially open up in Spinning Gate in Leigh town centre. They’ve already increased the number of new NHS patients on their register, and the Integrated Care Board (ICB) has now approved their Leigh practice supporting the training of new dentists.
“This collaboration helps address workforce shortages and ensures that dental services remain accessible and that patients can be seen more quickly, helping to reduce waiting times. This is just what we need locally.”
