The Ivory Dental Studio

Updated 13 October 2025

We carried out this announced on-site inspection on 25 February 2026.

We found the practice had met regulations.

The practice had systems to identify and manage risks, including infection prevention and control.

Staff had the skills, knowledge and experience to carry out their roles.

Recruitment procedures broadly reflected current legislation and there was effective leadership and a culture of continuous improvement.

Staff provided care and treatment in line with current guidance. They treated patients with dignity and respect and ensured access to care, support, and treatment when required.

The Ivory Dental Studio is in the London borough of Westminster and provides private dental care and treatment for adults and children.

There was step-free access to the practice, through the use of a portable ramp and car parking spaces and public transport links available near the practice.

The practice had 1 treatment room. At the time of our inspection, there was a total of 3 staff, of which there were the principal dentist, 1 dental nurse, who was also the practice manager, and 1 trainee dental nurse. We gathered feedback from staff and spoke to a range of staff during our inspection, including the principal dentist, the dental nurse/practice manager and the trainee dental nurse.

The service provides cosmetic treatments, some of which are not in scope of CQC regulation and are not covered in our inspection.

Updated 13 October 2025

Two weeks before our inspection, we asked the practice to encourage patients to share their views of the service with us. On the day of our inspection, we spoke with 1 patient and saw patient feedback from 6 patients. Patient feedback provided a positive view of the dental team and care provided by the practice.

Comments included, “I have been a patient here for many years. I have always been very happy with the treatment provided. I can get appointments easily, staff are not too pushy and prices are reasonable.”

Patients commented positively about the standards of cleanliness.

Patients felt able to book appointments within an acceptable timescale for their needs and said they had enough time during their appointment without feeling rushed.

Patients told us they were given clear information to help them make an informed choice about their treatment and any associated costs. They were involved in decisions about their care.

Patients said when they were prescribed medicines, sufficient information was given.

Patients told us that they were supported to maintain their oral health and were provided with appropriate information and resources.

The practice shared patient feedback with the team. We were told this was reviewed and where suggestions had been made, appropriate action would be taken.
