If you are looking for a dentist in Dulwich, London Dental Arts sits just over the hill in Forest Hill — around ten minutes by car from Dulwich Village and a short hop on the P4 bus, which links Dulwich directly to Forest Hill. Our practice at 1-3 London Road, SE23 3TW gives Dulwich, SE21 and SE22 residents a calm, fully private alternative to a crowded high-street surgery, with everyday dentistry, cosmetic treatment and specialist care under one roof.
Dulwich patients register with us for the full range of everyday care: routine examinations and small-screen digital X-rays, hygienist and Airflow cleaning, tooth-coloured composite fillings, crowns, bridges and dentures. Because we are private only, appointments are longer and unhurried — useful if you are travelling over from Dulwich Village, East Dulwich or the Dulwich Park side of SE21 and would rather not make repeat visits. Evening appointments run Monday to Thursday until 7pm, with Friday and Saturday slots until 5pm for anyone who cannot take time out of the working week.
We hold emergency slots every working day, so Dulwich patients with toothache, a broken tooth, a lost crown or a dental abscess can usually be seen the same day rather than waiting or travelling into central London. Call 020 3143 0080 first thing and we will find you a slot; if you are new to us, an emergency visit is a straightforward way to meet the team before registering.
A large share of our Dulwich patients arrive by word of mouth — recommended by neighbours already under our care, or referred by their own dentist for treatment that needs a specialist. Our clinicians are all GDC registered, and we accept referrals for endodontics (root canal treatment), implants, oral surgery and periodontal care, so complex work can be completed in the same practice you attend for check-ups instead of being sent across London.
Cosmetic dentistry is where Dulwich patients most often travel to us: Invisalign clear aligners, composite bonding, porcelain veneers, professional whitening and full smile design, plus facial aesthetics and skin treatments delivered by our HCPC-registered practitioner. Every cosmetic case starts with a proper consultation, photographs and a written plan with costs, so you know exactly what is involved before committing. Finance options are available on larger treatment plans.
Getting here from Dulwich is simple. By car, head over Sydenham Hill or along Lordship Lane and Forest Hill Road towards the South Circular — roughly ten minutes door to door — and by public transport the P4 bus runs between Dulwich and Forest Hill, with Forest Hill station a few minutes from the practice on foot. Dulwich is a large area, so we also keep dedicated pages for East Dulwich, West Dulwich and Dulwich Village, and for anyone specifically researching tooth replacement we cover implant treatment for Dulwich patients in detail on our dental implants pages. If you are not sure which treatment you need, book a consultation and we will talk it through properly before any work is planned.
