A local guide
An honest guide to choosing dental care in Twickenham and the surrounding towns — what your options are, how treatment is usually priced, and the questions worth asking before you agree to anything. Written by Dr Sundeep Solanki, GDC 212282.
Your options
NHS dentistry in Richmond upon Thames covers treatment that keeps you healthy — examinations, fillings, extractions, dentures. It does not cover cosmetic work: whitening, veneers, bonding and clear aligners are private wherever you go. Most people in Twickenham end up with a mix, and that is perfectly sensible.
A general practice looks after routine care for the whole family. A cosmetic-focused practice spends its time on appearance-led work — alignment, shape, colour and replacing missing teeth — and usually has longer appointments, digital planning and a laboratory relationship to match. Ask which of the two you are walking into.
In larger practices the dentist who plans your case is not always the one who does it. Ask who will be holding the handpiece, how many similar cases they complete a year, and whether you will see the same person at every visit.
Implants, complex alignment and gum treatment are sometimes referred out. That is not a bad sign, but it changes the cost and the timeline. Ask early.
What things cost
Prices vary between practices, so rather than quote anyone else's, here is how each type of treatment is normally priced — so you can compare two quotes properly. Our own fees are published in full on the fees page.
What to ask

Asked in Twickenham
We are at 2 London Road, Twickenham TW1 3RY, in the town centre about five minutes' walk from Twickenham railway station. The 281, H22 and 110 buses stop on London Road, the 33, R68, R70 and 490 at York Street, and Arragon Road car park is about two minutes' walk away.
The clinic at 2 London Road is still under construction, so opening hours will be confirmed before we open. Call 07356 215372 or message us on WhatsApp in the meantime.
No — Sunny Dental is a private practice. Many of our patients keep an NHS dentist for routine care and come to us for appearance-led work such as bonding, veneers, aligners and implants, which is private wherever you go in the UK.
Our guide fees are published in full on the fees page rather than quoted only in person, so you can compare before you book. Every plan is confirmed in writing, with the number of teeth and everything included, before treatment begins.
Mostly Twickenham, St Margarets, Whitton, Strawberry Hill, Teddington, Richmond, Isleworth, Hampton and Kingston, with patients travelling from across TW and KT postcodes for planned cosmetic and implant treatment.

Why patients choose us
Sunny Dental is a private, cosmetic-focused practice on London Road in Twickenham, led by Dr Sundeep Solanki (GDC 212282). Patients searching for a cosmetic dentist in Twickenham — composite bonding, veneers, Invisalign, whitening or implants — come to us because the treatment is planned and carried out by one dentist, at a fee agreed in writing before it starts.
What people travel to Harley Street for is a named dentist, unhurried appointments, digital planning and a natural finish. That is exactly how this practice works — a few minutes from home, with no central London trip at every stage of the case.
Dr Sundeep Solanki plans and carries out the treatment himself. You see the same dentist at the consultation, the fitting and every review — no handovers, no associate rota.
Composite bonding, porcelain veneers, clear aligners, whitening and implant restorations are what this practice spends its week doing, rather than a sideline to routine care.
You leave the consultation with the treatment written down and the cost agreed before anything begins. No open-ended estimates and no pressure to decide on the day.
Parents book alongside teenagers and grandparents. Longer appointments, a calm room and a slow approach for anyone who has had a bad experience in a dental chair before.
Longer appointments, a slower pace and a dentist who explains each step before it happens. Plenty of patients here have avoided dentists for years — nobody is lectured about it.
