Form Dental opens its doors in April, bringing a new standard of comfortable, modern dentistry

​

A brand-new private dental practice, Form Dental, is set to open on 20th April 2026, offering patients a fresh approach to dental care in a calm and thoughtfully designed environment.

Independently owned and founded by local dentist Dr Lara Phillips, the practice aims to redefine the traditional dental experience with a strong focus on comfort, advanced technology, and patient wellbeing.

​

Located at 65 London Road, Stapleford, in the large curved building on the corner of London Road and Church Street, opposite the Spar, Form Dental is easily accessible, with free parking available both on-site and on surrounding streets.

The practice has been carefully created to make visiting the dentist feel as stress-free as possible. From routine check-ups to advanced same-day crowns, the clinic offers a full range of treatments using state-of-the-art equipment.

​

Patients will benefit from some of the most up-to-date dental technology available, including advanced digital X-rays and a 3D scanner that allows clinicians to track your oral health over time. The practice has also invested in premium dental chairs renowned for their comfort (and even used in the White House) - helping patients feel more relaxed throughout their visit.

​

One of the standout features at Form Dental is the introduction of Guided Biofilm Therapy, widely regarded as the gold standard in modern hygiene care. This innovative approach provides a far gentler and more effective clean compared to traditional hygienist treatments, making it particularly appealing for those who may have previously found hygienist visits uncomfortable.

​

Form Dental is also focused on making high-quality care accessible for families, offering free check-ups for children under six when attending alongside a full-paying adult. The team prides itself on being friendly, kind, and gentle - creating a welcoming atmosphere for patients of all ages.

In addition to general dentistry, the practice will offer a range of natural smile enhancements, including teeth whitening, Invisalign, and composite bonding. These treatments are designed to subtly improve smiles while maintaining a natural appearance.

​

Dr Lara Phillips explains the vision behind the practice: “We wanted to create a space where people could experience dentistry in a more thoughtful and comfortable way. Our aim is to provide care in an environment that feels calm and reassuring. Form Dental has been designed to feel like a home away from home. The lighting is gentle, the features are soft and the atmosphere is as relaxed as possible. Many patients find that overly clinical spaces bring back memories of more anxious visits, so we worked hard to avoid that feeling. Instead, the practice has a warm, quiet character that helps you settle in from the moment you arrive.”

​

With its combination of cutting-edge technology, patient-focused design, and a compassionate team, Form Dental is set to become a valuable addition to the local community.

​

To celebrate the launch, Form Dental is running an exciting opening competition, giving winners the chance to receive free Invisalign treatment and teeth whitening worth over £4,000. Entries are now open, with the competition closing on 5th April at 11:59pm. Full details on how to enter can be found on the practice website and socials.
