Dentist in Ludlow
Can I register at Tenbury Dental Centre from Ludlow?
Yes. Ludlow and Tenbury Wells are neighbouring towns, and the practice is a 15 to 20 minute drive from Ludlow. We take new private patients from Ludlow and the villages between the two towns, and there is free parking a short walk away.

Tenbury Dental Centre, 32 Teme Street, Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire WR15 8AA. Open Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 1.10pm and 2.10pm to 5.30pm. Individual results vary, and any treatment is planned after an examination. See the full fee guide.
Two neighbouring towns
Ludlow and Tenbury Wells have a shared history and close community ties, and the short drive between them means dental care in either town is genuinely accessible from the other. Plenty of our patients make the trip from Ludlow, often because they want a particular treatment or because they have been recommended by someone who already comes here.
If you are simply after a dentist closer to home for check-ups, that is worth saying when you call. We would rather tell you honestly whether the journey makes sense for what you need than sign you up regardless.
Parking and getting here
The practice is on Teme Street in the centre of Tenbury Wells. There is no car park at the practice itself, and these are the options within a short walk:
- Free parking at the Tesco car park, with a 1.5 hour maximum stay, CCTV controlled
- Free parking at Tenbury Swimming Pool car park
- Free parking on Teme Street itself, if there are spaces
- Paid parking behind Tenbury Library
If you are coming for a longer appointment, the swimming pool car park is the safer choice, because the Tesco limit is enforced. Our contact page has the full details and a map.
What you can be seen for
Everything from a routine check-up to implant treatment is carried out at the Tenbury Wells practice, so a course of treatment does not mean being sent elsewhere.
Routine and preventive
- Examinations, including oral cancer screening
- Hygienist appointments and scaling, from £55
- Fillings, crowns and dentures
- Emergency care for broken teeth, swellings and abscesses
Advanced and cosmetic
- Dental implants, including full arch treatment
- Clear aligners, with Invisalign, Smilelign, Spark and ClearCorrect
- Whitening and veneers
- Conscious sedation for anxious patients, provided here rather than by referral
The equipment on site
Worth knowing if you are weighing up the drive, because it decides what can be done in one place: intraoral scanners instead of impression trays, digital x-ray equipment, and a CBCT scanner for the 3D imaging that implant planning needs. Treatment is planned from those scans rather than estimated, and the practice has its own decontamination processes on site.
Coming to us from Ludlow
How long does it take to drive from Ludlow?
Between 15 and 20 minutes for most of the route, which makes it a practical journey for a check-up as well as for a course of treatment. Allow a little longer at school times and for parking in the centre of Tenbury.
Can I come to you for one treatment and stay with my own dentist?
Yes. We accept referrals from other practices for implants, oral surgery, root canal treatment, sedation and cosmetic work, and you stay registered with your own dentist for routine care. Your dentist can refer you through our referrals for professionals pages, and you are welcome to call us first to ask what is involved.
Where do I park?
There is free parking at the Tesco car park, which has a 1.5 hour limit, and at Tenbury Swimming Pool car park, which does not. There is also free parking on Teme Street when spaces are available, and paid parking behind Tenbury Library. For a longer appointment, use the swimming pool car park.
What happens at a first appointment?
A new patient examination is £85 and covers a full assessment of your teeth, gums and bite, with x-rays where they are needed. You will leave knowing what, if anything, needs doing and what it costs. Our first appointment page explains it step by step.
What if I have a dental emergency?
Call us and we will fit you in as soon as we can. An urgent assessment is £60 plus the cost of any treatment. Our emergency dental care page explains how urgent appointments and out of hours cover work.
Are you taking on NHS patients?
Please call and ask, because NHS availability changes. We will tell you honestly what we can offer rather than book you in and sort it out later. The fee guide sets out our private fees.
Thinking of coming to us from Ludlow?
