Dental entrepreneur opens new Prestwich practice

Dental entrepreneur Dr Ilana Pine has opened her own practice in Prestwich, near Bury.

Love Teeth Dental Practice, based on Kings Road, created nine jobs with funding from NatWest.

To support its aim of providing quality patient care with comfort and convenience, Love Teeth’s treatment rooms have been kitted out with entertainment systems so patients can watch television or films through internet streaming sites.

Similarly, the practice’s reception area features charge points for phones, while tea and coffee is available for patients as they wait to be seen.

Love Teeth offers appointments for services such as implants and cosmetic treatment early in the morning and at night, as well as on Sundays, in a bid to support patients’ busy schedules.

Ilana, who has been a dentist for 18 years, recruited her father Dr Leo Klein in the role of associate dentist.

She said: “We are committed to providing quality, affordable dental care. Love Teeth is a patient-centric practice with appointment times which can fit around busy schedules.

“We know going to the dentist isn’t something many people look forward to doing so we have made the practice as convenient and accessible as possible.”

To get Love Teeth off the ground, Ilana turned to NatWest relationship manager Teena Wallace, who facilitated funding to support the opening of the new practice.

Ilana continued: “I have been a NatWest customer since I was 13 and have always experienced good customer care. Teena was amazing. She helped with everything and made things as easy as possible.”

NatWest’s Teena Wallace commented: “Ilana has created a wonderful practice at Love Teeth which will give her patients a bit of extra care through the additional provisions on offer.

“We wish Ilana and the team at Love Teeth every success for the future.”
