Two Mydentist practices in Rock Ferry, Merseyside, have merged following an investment of £1.3 million, Birkenhead News has reported.
All the dentists and staff from the Cavendish Road site have now moved to the New Chester Road practice. Together the practice has more than 14,500 patients.
The new Rock Ferry practice now has 13 surgeries and has capacity to treat 12,000 new patients annually.
It employs more than 40 staff, including dentists, dental nurses, reception staff, treatment co-ordinators, and managers.
Mydentist’s property director John Hudson said: “The new premises offer improved facilities for our dedicated practice teams, but also more choice for our patients.”
Barrie Power, practice manager at Mydentist New Chester Road, commented: “The merge substantially increases our dental surgery capacity and our team, which in turn means more care can be delivered to the community. We look forward to welcoming patients into the new practice and to delivering affordable care to the community of Rock Ferry.”
