Expert Care
Our team includes dentists with expertise in periodontics, implants, orthodontics, aesthetic dentistry and endodontics, so you get expert care without needing a referral to another practice.
Three Generations of Excellence
Our practice rests on three generations of dental expertise, led by Dr. Ole Behrens, who holds a PhD in Maxillo‑Facial Surgery. We invest in the equipment that makes precise work possible — high‑powered diagnostic microscopes and the Duo‑Lase™ gum treatment developed here. The Private Dentistry Awards named us Team of the Year, Highly Commended, which we take as recognition of care that is personal as well as clinically sound.
Easy to Reach from Putney
Whether you live near Putney High Street, by Putney Bridge, or walk on Putney Heath, our South Kensington practice is straightforward to reach. The journey is typically 20 to 30 minutes, and the District Line runs direct from Putney to South Kensington with no changes. Our opening hours include early mornings from 8am, evenings until 8pm (Tue–Thu), and Saturday appointments.
Costs and Financing
We believe in complete transparency. Costs vary with the treatment, so you get a detailed written breakdown of all fees before any work begins. 0% APR finance may be available on selected treatments, so the cost can be spread rather than met in one go.
*Finance subject to age, status and affordability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find a reliable dentist near Putney for gum problems?
Look for a practice with a genuine interest in gum health rather than one that treats it as an add‑on — modern diagnostic tools, and specific treatments for periodontal disease. Our team has extensive experience managing every stage of gum disease, a short journey from Putney.
What is the travel time from Putney to your practice?
Typically 20 to 30 minutes by car depending on traffic. The easier option is usually the District Line, which runs direct from Putney to South Kensington with no changes, and we are a short walk from the station.
Do you offer laser gum therapy?
Yes. We offer Duo‑Lase™ laser therapy, an advanced non‑surgical treatment for periodontal disease developed by Dr. Ole Behrens himself. It is less invasive and more comfortable than traditional gum surgery, and it is the reason a good number of our patients travel to us rather than going local.
Are emergency appointments available for patients from Putney?
Yes. We keep appointments free every day for urgent care. If you are in Putney with a dental emergency, call us on 0207 584 8810 as early as you can and we will do our best to see you the same day — ringing early also means we can hold a slot while you travel.
