Part of the Crewe community
More than four decades on Hungerford Road
Allen House Dental has looked after Crewe since 1982. The practice has grown and changed over more than four decades, while keeping the personal way of working that patients tell us they value. Some of the people we see have known us for years. Others are coming through the door for the first time.

If you are anxious
Nervous patients welcome
If the dentist is something you dread, say so when you book. Knowing beforehand changes how the appointment is handled.
What happens at a check-up
Allen House Dental Practice is registered with the Care Quality Commission, and our dental professionals are registered with the General Dental Council. You can verify a dental professional’s registration on the GDC register.
What matters to us
How we try to work
Four principles that guide every appointment.
We start by listening
Your concerns, your previous experiences and what matters to you shape the appointment. We take time to understand what has brought you in before talking about treatment.
We explain in plain language
We tell you what we have found and which options are suitable, without jargon. You will have the chance to ask questions and to understand the likely cost before deciding anything.
Prevention before treatment
Examinations, hygiene appointments and practical advice can help keep problems small, or stop them starting. Where treatment is needed, it follows an individual clinical assessment rather than a routine.
You remain in control
Nothing goes ahead until you agree to it. If you would rather go away and think, take the time you need. There is no obligation to accept what is proposed.
Who looks after you
A team, not a single dentist
Dentists, dental therapists and hygienists, nurses, reception and practice management all have a part in your care. Different clinicians bring different experience, from preventive and family dentistry through to restorative, cosmetic and implant work.
-
Diagnosis and treatment
Dentists
Your dentist examines and diagnoses, explains what they have found and carries out treatment. Where something calls for particular experience, such as implant work, it is provided by a clinician who works in that area.
-
Prevention and gum care
Therapists and hygienists
They provide professional cleaning, gum care and practical advice on looking after your teeth at home. Dental therapists can also assess and provide certain treatments within their professional scope, training and competence.
-
Everything around it
Nurses, reception and management
Dental nurses support clinical care and help appointments run safely and smoothly. Reception and practice management coordinate bookings, fees, membership plans and practice administration.
Where appropriate, care is coordinated between clinicians within the practice to support continuity between appointments. You can see who works here, their roles and their GDC numbers on our meet the team page.
Ready to arrange a visit?
Request an appointment and our team will help arrange a suitable time. If it has been years rather than months since your last visit, please tell us when you book so we can understand your concerns. If you are experiencing dental pain now, call us rather than waiting for a form response.
