Our Practice

After selling their original dental practice, James and Mike quickly planned to do it all again. This time was about learning from the past and providing for the future.

A wish list for the ideal practice was soon created:

To do dentistry in a modern purpose built dental facility with a relaxed atmosphere.

Use only the best equipment and software available to us, for us to be be and stay at the forefront of our profession.

Work with a handpicked and close-knit clinical team.

Collaborate with the world's biggest and best brands and companies, and cherry pick what we want without compromise.

Take a virtual tour of our dental studio

In the summer of 2016, 351 Harrogate Road came up on the market and the location made complete sense. The process then begun…

The Dentist is now complete and stands proud in its location in Moortown Leeds. The business has teamed up with the world’s best dental brands and products and is a ‘zero compromise’ complete solution for their patients.

The Dentist is a purpose-built facility, designed for the ideal dental experience from start to finish. James and Mike are both parts of the local community, so choosing Moortown as a location was always a simple choice.

The building was designed to blend modern and traditional architecture, representing the working culture that we strive to provide – traditional dentistry done well, with a modern and advanced emphasis. Our waiting lounge is a comfortable and relaxing space, offering a new experience for our patients, with space to work or relax. Much like your own home, there is a space to suit everyone’s taste from a lounge sofa to a breakfast bar, with a choice of coffees and teas, we’re aiming to please!

At The Dentist your patient experience is a priority to us, from the hello and smile at reception to music flowing throughout the practice and the TV screens in the ceilings, we’re here to bring a modern dental experience. We have invested in state of the art equipment to provide only the best level of hygiene and dental care.

Our sterilisation unit operates the newest autoclave technologies and air ventilation systems meeting the highest standards of sterilisation and hygiene; your health and safety are of our utmost importance. Connecting all 3 of our floors by lift, allows everyone to have access to our facilities. The top floor houses our bespoke consultation and photography suite, offering a new first experience.

    I didn't realise what a good dentist was until I had my new patient consultation last week. Using exceptionally detailed X-Rays, I was able to see that my previous dentist had not seen the problems I had with an old root canal, and with the one they did themselves.

    Fortunately The Dentist spotted these, got me in for a hygiene deep clean (not what you'd call enjoyable, but made as comfortable as possible) and a review is in the diary too. In just two visits, I feel like I've had the best dental treatment in twenty years. And for no more money than two visits to my previous dentists.

    Really excellent service, very pleasant surroundings and attentive staff who explain, smile and comfort. What more could you want?

    I’ve had a fair amount of treatment done recently with Dr Mike and it’s been amazing from start to finish. Was very nervous to start off with and Mike was really good at explaining what needed doing and putting me at ease! Now I have no fear of the dentist!
    I’ve had no issues with the treatment I’ve received, just goes to show what having a great dentist can do! The nurses are lovely aswell!
    The reception staff are brilliant! Always really efficient and helpful with anything I’ve needed! 10/10!!

    I recently had another visit with Yahya Patel and could not be more pleased with his work and approachable manner. By far the best dentist I have seen and would highly recommend him to anyone.

    The service I received from Lauren, the practice manager, was also amazing!

    Having wanted to get my teeth looking good for years, I put my faith in James at The Dentist. From initially doing a mock up to then having over 3 hours in the chair - OMG he gave me the mirror and I was blown away! Amazing, what a slick operator, his attention to detail, like an artist ! And they are amazing . Subtle, balanced, not looking like a bright Turkey job, just right . Having experienced other dentists in the past, I have never known such an efficient and slick organisation as The Dentist. I would highly recommend James to anyone wanting to look 20 years younger !

    Last year, I had what I thought would be a small aesthetic change done to my teeth by my previous dentist who unfortunately actually made changes that weren't discussed or asked for. After trying to work those issues out with him, I was unfortunately not given any solutions to fix what occurred and was left devastated.

    I found The Dentist after searching online for quite some time for a dentist I felt I could trust to fix the issues I was left with. That was very hard for me because I've had terrible experiences in the past (like that one) and felt like I wouldn't be able to find one I could trust. I loved the results on their website and decided to take a chance and booked a consultation with Dr. James Taylor.

    At the consultation James was able to quickly give me options to fix what was done. It was such a relief considering my previous dentist gave me no options, so I didn't think anything could be done. During this year, James fixed all of the issues I had and now my teeth look even better than they did before which I never thought could be possible. I was absolutely thrilled with the results and I'm so happy I took the chance to come and see him with my issues.

    Thank you again for everything!

    Absolutely fantastic dental surgery, from the brilliant team on reception to the hygienists and dentists, everyone is so professional and friendly. As someone who is nervous of the dentists due to previous bad experiences I have never felt as ease as much as I don’t with all the team. I cannot praise and recommend this dental surgery enough, they have been AMAZING in my extensive treatment, coming to the dentists is now a pleasure and not a dreaded experience twice a year.

    James Taylor has been my dentist for many years and now he has a new practice in Leeds. Lovely practice with lovely, well presented premises and friendly staff. I always look forward to my visit here and can’t recommend it enough. James has always been extra special and I would call him a friend as well as my dentist. He has been and still is a dentist to all my family too. Never feel rushed and he always makes time for a chat to ask how I am. I am always happy with my treatments too.
    A pleasure as always 👍🏼😊

    I brought my son (who has additional needs) to see James for a consultation on teeth straightening, and also to have non invasive x-rays taken (these are not on offer at our usual dentist). James explained everything he was doing, and put my son at ease. It is really hard to find a dentist accessible for children with additional needs, but my son found the whole appointment stress free. James has offered several options for teeth straightening, taking into account the things my son struggles with such as diet, and taking pain relief. I feel really confident that whichever option my son chooses, James will tailor the treatment to meet his needs, and take a holistic approach as to what will work best for his particular situation.

    Fantastic dentist. Actually enjoy going here! Very clean, modern and comfortable. Staff are professional, welcoming and friendly. My teeth gradually became worse over time, moving considerably due to issues with my wisdom teeth being impacted, and then removed while I was living abroad. Yayah is a brilliant dentist. An absolute pleasure. Nothing too much trouble. Takes tremendous pride in his work. I still can’t believe what he did with my teeth. They look amazing. Still getting used to being able to smile again!
