I’ve been going to Smiles Ahead for almost 5 years now and I’ve got nothing but great words to say. I called for an emergency appointment for my jaw this January and got booked in really quickly and saw Shree, the new dentist, which was so convenient as she specialises in jaws and aches. Shree did a whole thorough assessment of my jaw, X-rays etc. gave me some exercises, and sorted me out with some really good retainers plus a temporary one to see me through until they were ready. I’m now completely pain free after following her instructions and I couldn’t be happier! The whole team are amazing and all very positive and gentle, which is great for people who maybe aren’t so confident going to the dentist. Thanks Shree and the team!

Frequently asked questions about dental care in Corby
What should I expect at a new patient exam?
Your new patient appointment includes a full dental health check, all necessary X-rays, and time to discuss any concerns or goals you have for your smile. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your oral health and any recommended next steps.
Do you offer direct access hygiene appointments?
Yes, we do. At Smiles Ahead, you can book a hygiene appointment directly without needing to see a dentist first. This is known as a direct access appointment.
It’s ideal if you:
- Aren’t registered with a dentist
- Want a scale and polish between check-ups
- Need a freshen-up for your oral health
Our hygienist, Nasir, will assess your gum health, carry out a professional clean, and offer personalised hygiene advice. However, please note that as a hygienist, Nasir cannot diagnose or treat dental diseases or prescribe medications. If he notices anything that needs further attention, he’ll recommend that you see a dentist.
A direct access appointment lasts 30 minutes and costs £88. A £40 deposit is required at the time of booking to secure your appointment.
Do you offer payment plans for dental treatment?
Yes, we offer flexible options to help spread the cost of your treatment, with payments made at each stage and a final balance due on completion. We also have a dental membership for routine visits. Your dentist will be happy to talk you through these options at your appointment.
I’m a nervous patient — can you help?
Absolutely. We take time to understand what makes you feel anxious and tailor our care to your needs. You’ll never be rushed, and we’ll explain everything clearly so you feel in control. Our friendly team is experienced in supporting nervous patients across Corby and Northamptonshire.
