Dear Patients,

Following changes from the Scottish Government, your regular check-up's will be changing from every six months to annually. If you made a check-up appointment at your last visit please keep it, and following that appointment further check-ups will be once per year. Check-ups for children will remain at 6 months. Appointments can be made by phone or by booking online. When booking online for a check-up please ensure you book with your own dentist....

We said goodbye to Orla in December. After twenty-six years in the practice she has taken a well deserved retirement. Jane will be taking over Orla's list of patients. When booking online Orla's previous patients should book in with Jane instead. We urge anyone who has not attended for over three years to book a check-up. We understand the disruption Covid caused to many patients' health routines in the last few years, but if there are long periods without attending for a check-up patients may be deregistered from the practice. We look forward to welcoming you back. We are continuing to register new patients with a limited number of spaces available each month. We hope to see you soon.

-- Dr Neil J Rolfe and the Rolfe Dental Team

The majority of our nursing staff have worked at the practice for over 10 years and take pride in providing excellent, personalised care. Our team enjoy welcoming the families who return to the practice for generations, in addition to getting to know new patients. As part of our reception area we offer an enclosed play area for “little nippers” with books and toys to help distract and relax them prior to their, or your appointment.

Neil Rolfe

Neil graduated from the University of Glasgow in 2006 and joined the practice as an Associate Dentist in 2010. Working alongside the highly regarded Principal Dentist Mr James McLellan for over eight years allowed him to gain excellent experience and insight into the community he serves. He became Principal Dentist in 2018. He finds implant restoration cases, invisible aligner cases and smile makeover work very rewarding, and particularly enjoys seeing his patients grow more confident and proud of their appearance following work to restore their smile. Neil lives locally with his wife and three young children.

Hand scaling, Ultrasonic scaling or Air Flow particle cleaning. Rolfe Dental offer hygiene services with Dawn our Hygienist/Therapist as part of our preventative, whole mouth health approach. Patients also have the option to receive a scale and polish during their exam appointment with the dentist, if it is appropriate. For those with symptoms of gum disease, heavy staining or concerns about how best to clean their mouth a hygienist appointment can be made on request. We also offer direct access to the hygienist. People who are not patients of the practice are able to contact us to book directly with the hygienist without having to see the dentist first.
