About the practice
A calm practice in the heart of Headingley
Brightside Dental has cared for Headingley smiles since 2009. Three dentists, two hygienists and five surgeries, all on the ground floor.
Our story
Private dental care, the friendly way
We opened on Otley Road in 2009 with a simple aim: unhurried, honest dental care that treats people kindly.
Today the practice has five surgeries and a team who know the value of a calm chair and a clear plan. We are GDC registered, CQC regulated and a Denplan accredited practice.
