Where Did You Get That Smile?
When The Cosmetic Dental Clinic founders Andy Stafford and Darren Cannell met at dental school in Newcastle back in 1996, they knew they’d found friends for life.
The pals have worked, trained, and played together ever since, studying advanced cosmetic and restorative dentistry with the best in the US before returning to put a smile on the face of the city where it all began…
Since opening the first Eldon Square clinic in 2007, a team of top dental talent has helped Andy and Darren spread the word about the unmatched quality, precision and care on offer from The Cosmetic Dental Clinic—and secured the clinic’s pride of place as a Northeast institution.

What can I say, Nigel and the team at CDC Durham did a fantastic job and looked after me so well before, during and after my treatment. The team completely took the stress out of going to appointments and made the whole process so easy.
