At Cotteswold House, 2026 is shaping up to be an exciting year. After significant investment in our team, our equipment, and most importantly, our patient journey, we are proud to introduce something completely new: a general practice Open Day. This event is our way of inviting the local community and our patients to step inside and see the practice as it really is, without the usual pressures of an appointment or treatment.
Visiting the dentist can often feel daunting. For many people, it’s an unfamiliar experience, sometimes clinical or intimidating. We believe that the more people understand what we do and how we do it, the more comfortable they will feel. By opening our doors and welcoming patients and community members in a relaxed environment, we hope to build trust, answer questions openly, and remove some of the uncertainty that can surround dental care.
What You Can Expect on the Open Day
The Open Day is designed to give people the opportunity to experience Cotteswold House first-hand. Visitors will be able to meet our friendly team, ask questions freely, and see the practice in a calm, welcoming setting. We want people to feel at ease, whether they are considering treatment, curious about our services, or bringing their children along to get familiar with a dental environment in a fun, stress-free way.
In addition to exploring the practice and meeting the team, attendees will have the chance to receive a free 3D intra-oral scan with our Treatment Coordinator. This is a unique opportunity to understand your dental health in a completely pressure-free way. For those who decide to take the next step with their care, we will also be offering a special discount to help make starting treatment easier.
The Open Day is about more than just seeing equipment or taking scans. It’s about giving people a real sense of our culture here at Cotteswold House; the way we approach dentistry, our dedication to patient care, and the environment we have worked hard to create. From the moment you walk through the doors, our aim is for you to feel that Cotteswold House is a place where your comfort, safety, and health come first.
Why the Open Day Matters to Us
From a practice perspective, this initiative is equally significant. It gives us a chance to pause and reflect on the progress we have made, to take pride in the investments we have put into our team and our facilities, and to showcase the culture of care we have built. Over the past year, we have focused on making improvements at every level — from clinical excellence to patient experience — and the Open Day allows us to share those efforts directly with the people we care for.
Being open, transparent, and patient-focused is not just a one-off initiative; it is central to how we operate and plan for the future. Dentistry is evolving, and so are the expectations of our patients. People want to feel informed, respected, and understood. By inviting people in, showing them around, and talking openly about what we do, we are taking steps to meet those expectations and strengthen relationships with our patients and the wider community.
Join Us and Discover a Different Kind of Dentistry
We are genuinely excited about this opportunity to welcome people into Cotteswold House, to show what we are about, and to continue our mission of doing dentistry differently. Our Open Day is a chance for people to see that dental care does not have to be intimidating, that a visit to the dentist can be calm and reassuring, and that every interaction is grounded in care, professionalism, and respect.
Whether you are an existing patient, someone considering treatment, or simply curious about our practice, we invite you to come along, explore the practice, meet the team, and take part in a day designed with you in mind. At Cotteswold House, we are committed to delivering exceptional dental care in a setting where patients feel comfortable, confident, and informed.
We look forward to seeing you on our Open Day and showing you how dentistry can feel different, welcoming, and truly patient-centred.
