CARING FOR SMILES OF ALL AGES IN LEAMINGTON SPA
All the family are welcome for treatment at The Grove Practice in Leamington Spa. From the very young to the old, our team are well trained and caring to respond to their needs.
We believe that early dental experience sets the path for the future and if we can help make those early appointments fun and relaxed then there is a good chance your child will journey into adulthood free of dental disease.

Children's dentistry - Age-appropriate care from first teeth onwards
Preventive treatment - Regular check-ups and hygiene visits for all ages
Educational support - Teaching proper oral care techniques
Comprehensive care - Meeting the changing dental needs throughout life
Emergency services - Prompt attention when dental problems arise
With a focus on prevention of disease, we spend time to educate you and your family to ensure minimal dental problems. As children grow and develop we will monitor their changes and if necessary arrange for treatment for teeth straightening (orthodontics) when the time is appropriate.
We do not have an NHS contract for children but do not charge children from 0-5 yrs of age for their checks. For older children we have affordable plans to allow them to receive the very best preventive care including visits to our dental hygienists and therapist.

What our Warwickshire patients say


Children's dentistry
We take special care with our youngest patients, creating positive, fun dental experiences that build confidence and establish good habits for life. Our child-friendly approach includes:
We recommend children have their first dental visit around their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. These early appointments are brief and gentle, focused primarily on getting comfortable in the dental environment and providing parents with guidance on caring for those first teeth.

Dental care
Adolescence brings unique dental challenges, from orthodontic needs to lifestyle factors that can impact oral health. Our approach to teen dentistry includes:
Orthodontic assessment - Identifying potential alignment issues early
Preventive guidance - Addressing factors like diet, sports, and hygiene habits
Education about appearance - Discussing how oral health affects overall appearance
Respect for independence - Engaging teens directly in conversations about their dental care
Sensitivity to concerns - Recognising that appearance and comfort are often key priorities
We work to build trusting relationships with our teenage patients, helping them understand the connection between their dental choices now and their long-term oral health.



dental care
From young adults to seniors, we provide comprehensive care that adapts to changing dental needs throughout life:
Our adult care recognises that oral health needs evolve over time, and we adjust our approach accordingly to support lifelong dental wellbeing.

When should my child first visit the dentist?
We recommend children have their first dental visit to our Warwickshire practice around their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. These early appointments are brief and gentle, focused primarily on getting comfortable in the dental environment and providing parents with guidance on caring for those first teeth. Early visits help establish a positive relationship with dental care and allow us to monitor development from the beginning.
How can I help my child feel comfortable about dental visits?
Speak positively about dental visits, avoid using scary language or sharing negative experiences, and consider a "meet and greet" visit before the first appointment. Our team is experienced in making children feel comfortable and will work with you to create a positive experience.
Do you offer orthodontic treatment for children?
Yes, we provide comprehensive orthodontic assessment and treatment options for children and teens. Early evaluation allows us to identify potential issues and intervene at the optimal time, often simplifying later treatment.
What if my child is nervous about dental treatment?
We specialise in gentle, patient-centred care and have extensive experience working with nervous children. We take time to build trust, explain procedures in child-friendly terms, and move at a pace that keeps them comfortable. For very anxious children, we can discuss additional strategies to make their experience positive.
Do you offer family appointment blocks?
Yes, we can often arrange for multiple family members to be seen during the same time block, making dental care more convenient for busy families traveling to see us from throughout Warwickshire, Kenilworth, Warwick and Coventry. Please mention this preference when scheduling.
How do you accommodate senior patients with mobility issues?
Our practice is accessible, and our team is experienced in assisting patients with mobility challenges. We can adjust appointment length and timing to accommodate specific needs and work with carers when appropriate.
How often should children have dental check-ups?
Most children benefit from check-ups every six months, similar to adults. However, some may need more frequent visits if they have particular risk factors or ongoing dental issues.
Do you have a Specialist Orthodontist for children's braces?
Yes! We're excited to announce that a Specialist Orthodontist will be joining our practice soon to provide comprehensive orthodontic care specifically for children. This addition to our team will allow us to offer even more specialised treatment options for complex orthodontic cases in younger patients. In the meantime, our experienced team can provide initial assessments and many orthodontic solutions, including early intervention treatments when appropriate.
