Composite bonding
Chips, gaps and uneven edges reshaped in a single visit, usually with no drilling.
Bonding or veneers? →I’m Jack Dowling, a private dentist working across two practices in Newcastle upon Tyne. Whether you want a healthier smile, a straighter one or a full transformation, my job is to give you an honest assessment and a clear plan. No pressure and no guesswork, just dentistry done properly.

Private dentistry gives you time. Appointments are longer, so I can properly examine your teeth, explain what I’m seeing and talk through every option before you decide anything. You choose when you’re seen, you know your fees upfront, and you see the same dentist at every visit.
It also opens up treatments that go beyond the essentials. Composite bonding, porcelain veneers, professional whitening and clear aligner systems all sit within private care, planned around what you actually want your smile to look like.
Chips, gaps and uneven edges reshaped in a single visit, usually with no drilling.
Bonding or veneers? →Custom ceramic shells for a longer-lasting smile transformation.
Compare the options →Custom trays and dental-grade gel, planned around a full health check first.
How whitening works →Multiple clear aligner systems, so the system fits your case rather than the other way round.
Aligners or braces? →Examinations, hygiene, white fillings and everything that keeps your smile healthy underneath.
Book a check-up →Every new patient starts with a consultation. I’ll examine your teeth and gums, take photographs and scans where needed, and listen to what you want to change. You’ll leave with a written plan and clear fees, then the decision is entirely yours. Plenty of patients book in weeks later once they’ve had time to think, and that suits me fine.
I see private patients at two locations, so you can choose whichever is easiest for you.

Jack is an absolute perfectionist when it comes to Invisalign, and I’m so happy with my results. He always went above and beyond… if you are nervous at the dentist, you are in safe hands with Jack.
These are the questions I’m asked most about private dental care. If yours isn’t here, ask it at your free phone or video consultation.
It depends on the treatment. Every journey starts with a free 15-minute telephone or video consultation; if you'd like to come in afterwards, an in-person consultation is £100. Every plan comes with written fees before anything starts, so you'll always know the full cost upfront.
NHS dentistry covers treatment that's clinically necessary to keep your mouth healthy. Private dentistry gives you longer appointments, a wider choice of materials and treatments, and access to cosmetic work like bonding, veneers and whitening. Many of my patients use both, keeping their NHS check-ups and coming to me for cosmetic treatment.
No. Book a consultation at whichever of my practices suits you and I'll take it from there. You're welcome whether you want a one-off treatment or ongoing care.
Yes, and you'd be in good company. A large share of my patients arrive anxious, often after years away from a dental chair. We go at your pace, I explain everything before it happens, and nothing goes ahead until you're comfortable.
Whichever is handiest. I offer the same private treatments at both Gosforth and Great Park, so choose on travel time and parking rather than treatment.
