Specialist dental care for patients from Godalming
About 5½ miles by road · 15–25 minutes by car · 7 minutes by train to Guildford
Patients from Godalming and Farncombe come to Eastdale for specialist restorative care with the journey only being about fifteen minutes by car.
Most dental care belongs close to home, with your own dentist in Godalming. Some problems need a specialist: teeth that are wearing away, a mouth with several crowns or bridges that keep failing, missing teeth, or gum disease that hasn't settled. That is when patients from Godalming, Farncombe and the villages around them travel the few miles to Guildford.
Specialist care, without changing your dentist
Dr Ahmed Jebril is on the General Dental Council's specialist list for restorative dentistry. He plans and carries out the part of your care that needs a specialist, and your own dentist stays responsible for your check-ups and hygiene. With your agreement, a summary of your assessment and plan goes back to them. You can read more about specialist restorative dentistry.
Referred, or coming directly
Your dentist can refer you through our secure online referral form, or you can contact us yourself; you don't need a referral. If you have recent X-rays or a treatment plan from elsewhere, bring them or ask your dentist to send them, so the first visit can focus on you rather than repeating tests.
Planning around the journey
Specialist treatment usually takes a handful of visits rather than many short ones. When we plan your care, we'll talk about how you travel and arrange the appointments to suit.
