New to Worcester? Here's how to register with a dentist and what to expect

If you've recently moved to the area, one of the most important things to tick off your to-do list is finding a reliable dentist in Worcester. Whether you’re new to the city or just haven’t seen a dentist in a while, we’re here to make that process easy and reassuring.

At St. Peter’s Dental Practice, we welcome new patients every week — and we understand that visiting a new dental team for the first time can feel unfamiliar. Here’s what to expect, and how to register with confidence.

How to register

Getting started is simple. Just give us a call or send an enquiry through our website. Our friendly reception team will talk you through the process and help you find an appointment time that suits you.

What happens at your first visit?

Your first appointment is a 45-minute consultation. We take time to learn about your oral health history, listen to any concerns, and carry out a full examination of your teeth, gums, soft tissues, and jaw. X-rays may be taken if needed, and we’ll go through all our findings with you before discussing any treatment options.

You don’t need to know what you needMany new patients worry they’ve “left it too long” or aren’t sure what kind of care they need. Don’t worry — our role is to guide you. Whether you're simply overdue a clean or need a longer-term treatment plan, we’ll support you with zero judgement.

Support for nervous patients

We understand that visiting the dentist can be stressful for some. That’s why our team takes extra care to offer reassurance and go at your pace. You’ll never be pressured or rushed.

So if you’re looking for a trustworthy, friendly, and experienced dentist in Worcester, we’d love to welcome you. We’re here to help you settle in, feel at ease, and take care of your oral health for years to come.
