Located in the heart of Alsager, Lawton Dental Care is a private dental practice that puts its patients at the forefront of everything it does.

With a simple, yet effective philosophy of "come and discuss your smile concerns, and we'll work together to find the best solution for you", the team at Lawton Dental Care has built a reputation for offering both outstanding dental care and a compassionate, patient-centered experience.

The practice, situated at 33 Lawton Road, not far from Asda and opposite Wesley Place Methodist Church, offers a wide range of dental services.

From general dentistry for the whole family, to cosmetic treatments such as crowns, teeth whitening and Invisalign® teeth straightening, the clinic provides comprehensive care tailored to meet the needs of every patient.

Detailed information on services they offer can be found on their website here

With comprehensive post-graduate training in Restorative and Cosmetic dentistry, as well as Orthodontics, Dr Matt is passionate about providing the highest standard of care.

He is particularly enthusiastic about Invisalign®, a teeth-straightening system he believes to be the most comfortable and effective on the market.

To further enhance the precision and comfort of treatment, the practice utilises the state-of-the-art 3D iTero digital scanner, ensuring faster and more accurate results for patients.

"Our team is dedicated to offering supportive, high-quality dental care," Dr Matt explained. "We know that dental visits can be anxiety-inducing for many, so we go out of our way to create a calm, welcoming environment.

"Communication is key, and we make sure our patients are informed and comfortable at every stage of their treatment."

Since opening his own practice, Dr Matt has worked hard to create an environment where patients feel relaxed and at ease.

The practice is decorated in calming colours, designed for patient comfort from the moment they walk through the door.

The emphasis on personal care extends beyond the treatment, as the team takes the time to get to know each patient's individual preferences, ensuring a tailored and caring approach.

Dr Matt, who trained at Liverpool Dental School, set himself the goal of owning a dental practice by the time he was 30 – a goal he achieved when he took over Lawton Dental Care in 2022.

Today, he leads a team of six professionals who share his commitment to providing first class dental care for the people of Alsager and the surrounding areas.

Lawton Dental Care's ethos is not just about excellent clinical care; it's about building strong relationships with patients.

"We genuinely care about our patients," said Dr Matt. "We want them to feel confident in their smiles and comfortable with their treatment."

The practice's commitment to the community is also evident in its ongoing support for local initiatives.
