Services
The whole Illume team, including our client co-ordinators, will take the time to listen to you to establish the best pathway to complete dental health for you as an individual. We won't just talk to you about the obvious (your teeth, your gums, your mouth in general), we might ask how you're feeling, whether you're getting head- or neck-ache, or if you're sleeping well.
I have been in specialist practice since 1993 and was one of the first Dentists elected onto the General Dental Council list for Prosthodontics upon its formation. As part of a team with significant experience in the multidisciplinary approach to patient treatment I have been providing specialist referral services to over 100 referring partners in Gloucestershire and beyond for almost 20 years.
Illume dentists recognise the vital role our Hygienists, Agnes Gradon and Leanne Hobbs, play in oral health care delivery. Hygienists are specially trained dental professionals and their high levels of skill make them qualified to provide a wide variety of supporting treatments under the direction of the prescribing dentists to enhance patient care.
Illume is used to getting great feedback from its customers, but don't just take our word for it - see some of our latest testimonials below. On Wednesday I came in with a badly broken tooth with had virtually disintegrated when chewing a peanut! I fully expected the only course of treatment was an extraction and, as this was one of my few functioning teeth, I was not very happy.
Additional procedures will be carried out if essential and in the best interest of the client after obtaining the client's consent. For your convenience we accept cash, cheques (with a valid guarantee card), debit cards and credit cards (excluding American Express). We are also able to arrange interest free credit agreements for many treatments, please ask one of our Client Coordinators for details.

Excellent service from Illume recently. I had a sudden toothache and was seen the same day. The practice phoned me a few days later just to check how I was. When the problem returned the following week I was again seen within a matter of hours. The assessment of my problem was thorough, and the resulting treatment effective.

We’ve seen the same dentist at Illume for 20 years! A testimonial in itself. Friendly, caring and a total professional service. We would never go anywhere else!

Illume is a fantastic dentist conveniently located in Cheltenham. They provided excellent pain free treatment of a bad tooth. I don't live close, and it is a bit of a trek for a visit to the dentist. But after my first appointment, experiencing the professional, really friendly atmosphere, I won't want anybody else looking after my teeth. You can take for granted the quality of treatment and sympathetic care. I really believe that you get what you pay for. Being with a 'cheap' dentist before taught me that it was just false economy; pay a bit more to get the job done right the first time is my

My first visit to Illume and I have never been treated so well. Everyone made me feel comfortable in the practice. Such an amazing difference to the NHS dentist I used to visit. I was completely relaxed. Slightly out of my way, but definitely worth the visit to such a caring dentist.

Illume has provided a brilliant level of dental care. After university it was time to take proper care of my teeth. Illume put me at ease so I don’t worry about visiting the dentist any more. Now I’m getting older I’ve realised that it’s important to visit the hygienist as well as the dentist to keep me from needing more serious treatments later on. Thank you Illume for taking away my fear!

I have been a patient at the Illume practice for over 25 years and have always received the best service and care during that time. They are a professional team with their eye firmly fixed on the provision of a first class service for all their clients in all aspects of oral health. The modern and relaxing surroundings put you at ease the moment you walk in. You are greeted with a smile from all members of the team and dealt with in a professional manner with all treatments and costs explained in full. If you are looking for a dental practice that goes that extra mile you won't go far wrong with

I started my fixed brace treatment at Illume about 2 months ago, and the very friendly welcome, advice, consultation, care plan and treatment has been amazing. The facilities within the practice are also top notch, so different from any dentist I have been to before. After so many years of indecision about correcting my upper teeth, I'm so pleased that I chose Illume, as I know I will not be disappointed with the results. Tim, who is carrying out my treatment is incredibly professional and I definitely feel relaxed and at ease. I cannot recommend Tim, Ali and their team highly enough! Thank you

I visited Illume for the first time last week and it has totally transformed my perception of the 'dentist'. Not only was the atmosphere very relaxing and comforting, but all staff were also very pleasant and helpful.
The dentist I saw asked about my needs and concerns and provided me with a very thorough mouth examination that even screened for mouth cancers. I will definitely be going to Illume moving forwards and am pleased I have finally found a decent dentist since moving to this area just over a year ago.

Finally I have found a team of professionals who really care about my teeth and well being. They are committed to delivering the highest standards of dental treatment and it is clear that there is great teamwork and an ethic of customer care and service rarely found these days. Illume offers a partnership - I feel part of the process and the team spend a great deal of time ensuring I understand what treatment I need and why, and offer advice and support on how to maintain the health of my mouth and teeth.
I have recommended several friends, work colleagues and family and they too have all been

Great. Solved an emergency with a temporary crown, then when I was able to get back, completed complex root canal work with permanent crown. No problem since. Have been at this dentist for nigh on 20 years. My family travel miles to get there.
