Advent dental surgery opened in 2005 on Moulsham Street and has now moved to its new home on Anchor Street in 2019. It was originally opened as an overspill to accommodate the continuous growth of Sharrow. Sharrow has evolved from 2 dentists and 1 hygienist to 6 dentists, 1 hygienist and 1 orthodontist with a total of 8 surgeries! The continued growth of Chelmsford and the increasing popularity of Advent meant that we also needed to expand. Now at our new home we have 5 surgeries with 4 dentists and 3 hygienists.
We are still linked to Sharrow Dental Practice as one large family but Advent is a stand alone dental practice 8 minutes’ walk from Sharrow and is able to offer all forms of simple and complex dental treatments, ranging from NHS crowns, dentures and fillings, to periodontal therapies and implants or cosmetic treatments.
We are open 5 days a week by appointment only, Monday – Friday, with all patients of Advent covered by out-of-hours care including weekends at Sharrow, our group partner practice.
Clinicians and patients of the practice enjoy access to the most advanced technologies in the field of dentistry including:
- Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D imaging for the purposes of diagnosis or oral and maxillofacial conditions and surgical planning;
- Intraoral scanners for restorative and orthodontic planning;
- CAD-CAM software and precision milling units for producing restorations at the chairside;
- State-of-the-art Straumann dental implant systems;
- Intravenous sedation;
- ‘Warm vertical condensation’ endodontic obturation apparatus and bioceramic endodontic materials;
- Paper-free electronic patient registration and check-in.
This means that our highly skilled team are able to offer a broad range of treatments to meet the precise and personal needs of each and every one of our patients.
