Orchard House Dental Practice, originally established in the 1960s by Dr. Steven Jeffery, transitioned to new ownership in 1998 when Colette O’Sullivan took over. With a commitment to maintaining its family-oriented atmosphere, the practice has seen a steady increase in regular patients and gained recognition within the Kent dental community for its quality care and personal service.
The practice operates from a facility that includes one ground floor and three upstairs surgeries, equipped with step-free side door access to accommodate patients with mobility challenges. It offers comprehensive dental services ranging from routine care for adults and children to specialized referrals for orthodontic work and treatments requiring general anaesthesia or sedation.
Orchard House Dental Practice has been acknowledged for its commitment to staff development and service quality, earning the Investor in People award in July 2000. Further, it met the British Dental Association (BDA) Good Practice criteria in December 2001, a status reaffirmed annually. Notably, the practice achieved Silver Status in 2008 and Gold Status in 2010 for its sustained excellence, making it one of the first in Kent, and indeed the UK, to receive such honors. These accolades underscore its dedication to offering exceptional dental care to patients of all ages, from infants to centenarians.
