Southampton’s first port of call for high quality general and cosmetic dentistry, Ferry Dental has been trusted by families since 2012.
"A great experience! I’d not been to the dentist in a *very* long time, and had some rather negative experiences with dental treatment in the past - but Ferry Dental were absolutely fantastic. Rest assured, if you find going to the dentist stressful, there’s no need to worry - they’ll take great care of you and your teeth."
We'll craft your Smile Makeover plan to match your specific needs and circumstances, helping you achieve the smile you've always wanted.
Straighten your teeth comfortably and discreetly with our range of clear aligners all designed to give you a perfectly aligned smile.
Restore broken or chipped teeth and bring your smile back to life with this non-invasive treatment.
Revitalise your smile with crowns and bridges, providing a durable solution for damaged or missing teeth.
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front of your teeth, matching their natural colour for a seamless, beautiful appearance.
Endodontics, commonly known as root canal treatment, is needed when the pulp - the tooth's blood and nerve supply - becomes infected due to decay or injury. The main goal is to remove the infection from the root canal while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. This prevents the infection from spreading and restores your tooth to its natural appearance and feel.
The duration of a root canal procedure depends on the complexity of the case and the number of teeth involved. Typically, the treatment is completed in one or two appointments.
Of course! Dental anxiety is common, and we've helped many patients feel more at ease about visiting the dentist. We'll ensure you're comfortable throughout your visit, never rushed, and always informed about your treatment.
Emergency appointments are available to everyone, whether you’ve visited us before or not and we do our best to offer same-day appointments where possible. If you’re dealing with toothache, a broken or lost filling, or a lost crown or bridge, contact us as soon as you can. While additional appointments may be necessary to complete your treatment, we will aim to resolve the issue during your emergency visit if possible. Call us on 02380 332255.
You can find Ferry Dental Centre at Ferry House, Canute Road, Southampton, SO14 3FJ.

A new patient examination costs £130 and takes around 60 minutes, giving us plenty of time to assess your teeth, gums, and soft tissues. We use high-magnification and specialised cameras for a detailed clinical and cosmetic check, which includes screening for oral cancer. We will need to take multiple X-rays so that we can get a full understanding of your oral health, but don't worry, they're included in the price. After your exam, we’ll go over any treatments you might need and set up your next routine appointment.
Our orthodontic team is led by Dr Marwa Arzoky, a dentist with a special interest in short-term orthodontics. She’s certified in both Invisalign and ClearCorrect and is also a ClearCorrect Ambassador and key opinion leader in the UK. With lots of experience using different aligner systems, she easily incorporates clear aligners into her daily treatments.
Most dental whitening systems can lighten teeth by up to 16 shades. While results may vary from person to person, if used correctly, you can expect a dramatic improvement in the whiteness of your teeth. Individual factors such as the current shade of your teeth, the type of staining, and adherence to the whitening treatment will influence the final result.
No, natural teeth typically do not appear overly white. In fact, a well-executed whitening treatment enhances the natural colour of your teeth, creating a bright and healthy smile. However, it’s worth noting that very white crowns or dental restorations may sometimes look out of place, as they are made of porcelain and do not change colour with whitening.
No, any dental restorations you have will not change colour with whitening treatments. However, you may need to consider replacing some of these restorations after whitening if they no longer match the new shade of your natural teeth. It’s important to discuss this with your dentist during your consultation.
You might experience some temporary sensitivity during the whitening process, which is common. To help manage this, your dentist will provide you with easy-to-use desensitising swabs to take home or a specialised toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth. Most patients find the treatment to be quite comfortable overall.
After receiving your custom bleaching trays from your dentist here in Ocean Village, you will need to wear them for two weeks. These trays are thin and comfortable, and by following this regimen, you’ll begin to see results. After the two-week period, you’re encouraged to return for a review appointment on the 15th day to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
The results of your teeth whitening can last indefinitely with minimal maintenance. To keep your smile looking its best, we recommend wearing your whitening trays for just one night every other month. This will help maintain the brightness of your smile over time.
Dental whitening treatments tend to be more expensive because the combinations of peroxides we use are significantly stronger than those found in beauty spas or over-the-counter products. This professional-grade formula is designed to provide more effective and longer-lasting results, ensuring a higher quality of care.
Absolutely! The materials used in our whitening agents (gels) have been safely used in dentistry for over 100 years. When performed by a qualified dental professional, like the team here at Ferry Dental Centre, teeth whitening is a completely safe procedure that effectively brightens your smile without compromising your dental health.
At our Southampton practice we provide a variety of dental implant options to suit your needs. A single tooth implant is perfect for replacing a single missing tooth with a natural-looking implant and crown. For those missing multiple teeth, we offer the implant retained bridge, which uses implants to support a bridge without relying on adjacent teeth.
If you need more stability with your dentures, an overdenture uses implants to anchor the denture securely, enhancing comfort and function. Lastly, a full arch restoration, also known as “All-on-4” or “All-on-6,” is a permanent solution for replacing all teeth in the upper or lower jaw with strategically placed implants.
Each option is designed to restore both function and aesthetics, helping you smile with confidence.
