  • The Fulham Dentist: Over 70 Years of Dental Care on Fulham Road

Pure Smiles has had a practising dentist at our Fulham Road address for over 70 years. With only two previous principal dentists before the current team, we have provided a continuity of care that the local community values and that is increasingly rare in modern dentistry.

Located on the Fulham Road between Parsons Green and Putney Bridge tube stations, Pure Smiles is your neighbourhood dental practice with a long-standing commitment to the people of Fulham, SW6.

A Practice Rooted in the Community

Seventy years of continuous dental care from one address is not something that happens by accident. It reflects a practice that has consistently earned the trust of the local community — generation after generation choosing the same surgery for their dental care.

Dr Ayzaaz Akram (BDS Liverpool 1995, GDC 70996) leads the practice today, continuing a tradition of accessible, high-quality dental care. Ayzaaz lives locally and is genuinely invested in the community he serves. This is not a corporate chain with rotating dentists — it is a practice where the principal dentist knows patients by name and provides personal continuity that makes a real difference to the quality of care.

What Continuity of Care Means for You

Benefit Why It Matters
Your dentist knows your history No repeating yourself at every visit
Changes are spotted early A dentist who has seen your teeth for years notices subtle changes
Treatment plans are consistent No conflicting advice from different practitioners
Trust builds over time Reduces anxiety and improves communication
Family care across generations Parents and children seen by the same trusted team

Research published in dental journals consistently shows that patients who see the same dentist over time have better oral health outcomes. Familiarity with a patient’s history, habits, and risk factors allows for more personalised and effective care.

Our Services

Pure Smiles provides comprehensive dental care covering preventive, restorative, cosmetic, and emergency treatment. Whatever your dental needs, we have the expertise and the facilities to help.

General and Preventive Dentistry

The foundation of good dental health is regular check-ups and professional cleaning. Our general dentistry services include:

  • Routine examinations — thorough assessment of teeth, gums, and oral health
  • Professional cleaning and scale and polish — removal of plaque and tartar that brushing alone cannot address
  • Fillings — tooth-coloured composite restorations that blend naturally with your teeth
  • Root canal treatment — saving teeth that might otherwise need extraction
  • Extractions — when a tooth cannot be saved, performed as gently as possible
  • Gum disease treatment — from gingivitis management to periodontal care

Cosmetic Dentistry

Our cosmetic treatments help patients achieve the smile they have always wanted:

  • Teeth whitening — professional home whitening for safe, dramatic results
  • Porcelain veneers — custom-made shells to transform the appearance of front teeth
  • Composite bonding — affordable reshaping and repair in a single appointment
  • Smile makeovers — combining treatments for a comprehensive transformation

Orthodontics

Invisalign clear aligners offer a discreet way to straighten teeth at any age. Digital scanning and 3D treatment planning allow you to preview your results before starting.

Children’s Dentistry

We welcome children from their first tooth, building positive associations with dental care that last a lifetime. Our team is experienced in making young patients feel comfortable and engaged.

Emergency Dentistry

Dental emergencies do not follow office hours. As part of our commitment to patient care, registered patients at Pure Smiles have access to emergency dental cover from our principal dentists during evenings and weekends.

Appointments That Fit Your Schedule

We understand that Fulham residents lead busy lives. Fitting dental appointments around work, school runs, and commuting can be challenging, which is why Pure Smiles offers:

Late evening appointments — for patients who cannot attend during standard working hours

Saturday appointments — convenient weekend availability for the whole family

Two Fulham locations — our surgeries at 257 New Kings Road (SW6 4RB) and 750a Fulham Road (SW6 5SH) give you flexibility in choosing the most convenient location

257 New Kings Road, SW6 4RB is our second location, providing additional capacity and convenience for patients in the New Kings Road area of Fulham.
