Welcome to Northway Dental Practice

1st May 2022

A new year and a hope for a more normal future.

We are united with the people of Ukraine at this time. Also, the direct effects of COVID-19 on the British population seem to be in decline, hopefully this represents a permanent situation.

We are still taking great care for the safety of our patients, staff and visitors/suppliers but with an emphasis on trying to restore the service to as close to "normailty" as possible.

Our colleague Pia Koch recently had her third child Maria. Both are doing well. We expect Pia to return in October.

However, with our colleague away and with the high demand we presently have, the residual difficulties in supply chains and with suppliers/labs - everything is slower than it used to be. Whilst we are hopeful things will improve, this may represent the "new normal" at least for the time being.

We continue to be unable to take on new patients at this time, although we can offer limited management of dental pain, and we can take contact details in the hope that we might be abe to see some new patients in the future, sadly, this is not a certainty.

Dentistry can be gentle, caring and affordable....

At Northway Dental Practice we make every effort to make your experience as pleasant as possible and to tailor our services to your needs. We hope you will feel comfortable and will enjoy:

Here what a few of our patients say about us:

"In 2006 I became a patient of Northway Dental Practice. I am a woman of 74 and have a had a long history of dental problems and complications, often with very bad experiences. However since I have been coming to Northway Dental Practice I have for the first time, had trust and confidence in a dental surgeon. Recently they have done some major work for me, with excellent results. Not only am I impressed with their dental expertise, but also their friendly, informative and caring manner. I am very happy to recommend Northway Dental to anyone with dental problems."
-J. F. B. (Somerset)

"I have just come back from the dentist. I have had my top left wisdom tooth out by Dr Simon Khoury. I am writing this because I feel fine still a little numb but no real pain, Simon explained what he was going to do. And got on with it .....for many years I have feared going to the dentist well this has not been anywhere like a bad experience. In fact I would go so far as actually a good one ........... my decayed tooth has gone and I am going to be just fine. Thank you Simon – you are an amazing dentist"
-Kate (Bath)

"When my dentist in Bath retired it seemed like a good time to move to a more convenient practice. Eventually I landed at Northway Dental Practice (and am well impressed thus far!)"
