About Bupa Dental Care Bishop Auckland

Established with 5 surgeries and set within a beautiful Victorian conversion, our practice combines character and charm with cutting-edge technology. We are fully digital and equipped with digital radiography, an iTero scanner, rotary endodontic systems and modern clinical facilities, allowing you to provide high-quality implant treatment with confidence and efficiency.

Our collaborative culture encourages professional development, clinical excellence, and the sharing of expertise, ensuring you have the support needed to thrive.

Our practice offers Bupa Smile Plan - a payment plan that allows patients to spread the cost of their routine preventive dentistry throughout the year. This enables our patients to budget for their dental care and encourages regular attendance helping to maintain their oral health.

Why we're different

As the only corporate dental provider in the UK not backed by private equity, we’re in a unique position. We’re committed to the UK dental industry for the long-term – both private and NHS – and are ready to treat not just today’s patients, but generations to come.
Furthermore, as a limited liability company Bupa has no shareholders, so we’re able to focus 100% on delivering a great service for our customers. We are run commercially to ensure we remain competitive, but Bupa reinvests 100% of its profits to help provide better care for patients across the world.
