The clinic

Bath Oral Surgery Clinic was established in 2003 to provide specialist treatment for patients requiring oral surgery procedures. The clinic treats patients with optimal care and attention using clinical techniques that are evidence-based and in accordance with current national guidelines.

We are able to carry out a wide range of surgical procedures:

Procedures can be carried out under local anaesthesia alone or with additional monitored intravenous sedation if the patient is apprehensive of the proposed treatment and there are no medical/social contra-indications.

We strongly believe that an oral surgery procedure need not be a painful, stressful and traumatic experience. We are very happy to discuss particular needs/concerns with both patients and referring practitioners.

We especially welcome anxious patients and fully appreciate that most patients will view the prospect of oral surgery with trepidation, even if it is required to help secure oral health. To-date, we have successfully treated many people who were extremely apprehensive beforehand and regard this as one of our specialities.

We also have provision to see patients at short notice if necessary, particularly if an emergency situation arises and prompt treatment is required. In such cases, Tim Milton can be contacted on 07790 203198; if a message is left, the call will be returned at the first opportunity. Alternatively, Tim can be contacted via the email form on the contact page
