Private home visits for housebound patients

We are proud to offer home dental visits for patients who are either housebound or have additional needs that would make it difficult to attend an appointment at the practice. This service is typically suited to elderly patients, those recovering from surgery, those living in care homes, and patients with special needs. We can visit your home and provide a streamlined dental checkup and treatment in comfortable surroundings.

We might not be able to bring the entire dental surgery to you, but we can provide a select number of treatments that can greatly improve your quality of life. This treatment option is intended for those who are unable to attend an appointment in our practice, not those who are nervous and would prefer not to. For nervous patients, we recommend speaking to our reception team to help work through your dental anxiety.

The benefits of home visits

  • Available within a 10 mile radius of our practice
  • Essential checkups and treatments available
  • Ideal for housebound, elderly and additional needs
  • Treatment in the comfort of your own home

The benefits of home visits

We can't offer all treatments during a home visit, but we can offer essential care to ensure you aren't in pain or uncomfortable while you are unable to visit the practice. We can offer routine checkups, dental cleaning, extractions, temporary fillings, denture repairs and new dentures. If you're in pain, we can issue antibiotics to treat the source of the pain, and pain relief to help keep you comfortable until you are able to undergo treatment. A common reason for home visits is to replace or repair dentures for elderly and housebound patients. We also support patients who are recovering from surgery, or those with additional needs who are unable to attend an appointment in our practice.

Frequently asked questions

How can we help?

Home dental visits can include a wide range of services, such as dental exams, cleanings, fillings, extractions, denture adjustments, and oral health education. However, the scope of services may vary depending on the dental professional and equipment available. We cannot provide our full range of treatments in a home setting as some of our equipment isn't portable. However, we can deliver essential care to safeguard your oral health until you are able to arrange a dental visit.

Home dental visits are ideal for individuals who have mobility issues, disabilities, advanced age, or medical conditions that make it difficult for them to travel to a dental practice. Unfortunately, we cannot offer home visits for patients with a dental phobia or anxiety. In this instance, we will work with you to make a trip to our practice as stress-free and relaxed as possible.

Home dental visits are generally safe when conducted by licensed and trained dental professionals who adhere to strict infection control protocols. We have strict protocols for sterilising equipment and take all necessary precautions to ensure safety. We only carry out treatments that will be safe and hygienic to do so in a home setting. For more extensive and specialised treatment, we will work with you to arrange treatment in our practice, or refer you for hospital treatment if required.

Yes, you can request home dental visits for family members or loved ones who require dental care but have difficulty going to a dental clinic. We will need to ask some questions about the patient and the space they are in to ensure we will be able to carry out an examination and any dental work required.

We offer excellent care and advice regarding our wide range of treatments to all of our patients.

  • As I am a very nervous patient from bad experience at a different dental practice. Bhandals in Blackheath are by far the best dental. They are very understanding if you are nervous or have had previous bad experience here at Blackheath Bhandal they put you at ease and make you very comfortable and put the control in your hands and at your own pace and they have a very high duty of care to there patients. They helped and put me at ease and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. 10/10 best dental practice. Amazing staff I will happily return back to Bhandal Blackheath.

  • Dr Simran Bhandal and her dental nurse Demi have spent the last year or so transforming my smile using the Invisalign treatment plan. I have received the best care and treatment and now I have the most amazing smile. The detailed care and attention I have received has been professional and attentive, I have felt at ease and confident throughout knowing the results would be as desired. High standards deserve high praise. So a big thank you to Simran, Demi and the lovely reception staff at the Bhandal practice in Blackheath.

  • I am so pleased I came across this dentist on the nhs find a dentist app to be honest what drew me to this practice was the parking situation but that has become insignificant with the treatment I have received from this practice, from my initial consultation to the two treatments I needed I have experienced fabulous treatment. The staff are friendly, the 3 dentists I saw explained everything that was needed and didn’t make me feel pressured into making a decision. I am not sure how they do it they are so efficient that I haven’t had to wait more than a minute or so past my appointment time to be seen my tooth extraction was booked for 8am and I was walking out of the surgery with 1 less tooth at 8.10am but didn’t feel rushed at all. I will highly recommend this dentist surgery to people I know or who need an nhs one.
