Welcoming New Private Patients
We’ve been proudly caring for the smiles of patients in Portishead, Bristol and beyond for over 30 years. Our friendly, experienced team is dedicated to delivering the kind of high-quality care we’d choose for our own families — professional, compassionate, and tailored to your needs.
Your comfort and satisfaction are always our priority. We’ll involve you in every decision about your treatment, ensuring you receive the most appropriate care in a way that is ethical, gentle, and focused on your wellbeing.
We’re an independent, family-owned practice led by husband and wife team Karim and Sarah. You’ll find us just off Portishead High Street, with convenient on-site parking and evening appointments available until 7pm three days a week — making it easier for you to fit your dental care around a busy schedule.
Book A New Patient Dental Health Assessment
We’re confident that our dental health check will be the most thorough you’ve ever experienced.
Whether it’s been 6 months or several years, we’re here to make your visit easy, comfortable, and reassuring. During your check-up, your dentist will:
• Ask about your general health and any problems you’ve had with your teeth, mouth or gums since your last visit.
• Ask about, and give you advice on, your diet, smoking and alcohol use, and teeth-cleaning habits.
• Examine your head and neck for signs of cancer.
• Assess the health of your jaw joints.
• Examine not only your teeth but your gums and remaining soft tissues in your mouth.
• Take necessary x-rays to assess the inside of your teeth, roots, and bone levels.
• Reach an accurate diagnosis and formulate a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Good Oral Health Prevents Small Issues From Becoming Big Problems
Regular dental health checks are essential, even if you’re not experiencing any obvious problems.
Catch Problems Early
Tooth decay and gum disease often start without symptoms. Regular check-ups help catch issues early—before they become painful or costly to treat.
Prevent Gum Disease
Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss and often goes unnoticed. Routine visits help keep your gums healthy.
Save Time, Stress & Money
Preventive care is simpler and more affordable than treatment for advanced issues—plus, there’s peace of mind knowing everything’s OK.

5 Star Google Reviews From Our Patients
I recently had a filling to address a crack in my tooth. I was quite conscious of it, and it frequently became stained. I am extremely pleased with the results; the filling has exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Richard and Carly. Their expertise is remarkable, and I always leave the clinic with a brighter smile.😁. Thank you.
Elaine Baillie
Karim went above and beyond to make me feel at ease, very professional but at the same time very friendly. I was in a lot of pain and he quickly sorted out my pain whilst making me feel very calm and cared for, along with his dental nurse Shannon. I couldn’t have felt in better hands, such a good experience . I can’t recommend this practice enough and Karim makes it a really positive experience. Can’t thank you enough..”
Susanne Ragg
So impressed with Richard and Carly, first dentist I've been to where I genuinely feel they have my best interests to heart, and I couldn't be happier with the results so far. Highly recommend.
Tim Froggatt
Amazing! I’ve always been scared of the dentist and the whole team at Combe Road have gone above and beyond to make me feel at ease. The reception staff are lovely, and the care I have received is second to none. Dr Karim and Carly have been brilliant from the off. 100% would recommend to anyone looking for kind, professional, top quality dental services. Thank you all ❤️

Having been on an NHS waiting list for considerable time and an anxious patient I decided to go private. I have ‘struck gold’ with Coombe Road Dental. Dr Karim, Jane and the reception team have made me feel very welcome. Karim is an extremely skilled dentist, a perfectionist (just like me!) and a lovely person. I feel in very safe hands undergoing treatment which is of the highest quality.
I would recommend to anyone looking for first class dental treatment.

We understand that dental fear or phobia is deeply personal—and often rooted in a past negative experience. That’s why we take the time to listen, support, and work at your pace. Below are just a few of our 5 star patient reviews to hear how we’ve helped others feel calm, comfortable, and in control again.
Always feel I am given the best that is available in terms of diagnosis and treatment. The dentist Richard Mears is I believe the best I’ve ever had 😃
