The Chess House Story
In the last 4 years, Yash & Shiv have left no stone unturned in making their vision for Chess House come true. Patients have witnessed the huge amount of transformation the practice has seen in the last few years. In 2021, they have seen one of their biggest dreams take form: that of expanding Chess House from a 4-surgery to a 7-surgery multidisciplinary practice, providing all treatments under one roof.
The practice has not only evolved in terms of surgeries but is now equipped with the latest technology, intraoral cameras, intraoral scanners, digital smile design and microscope allowing our dentists to give the highest quality of advanced dental care. Our Chess House family now consists of 9 dentists, 2 visiting specialists, 6 dental nurses, 2 receptionists and 1 treatment co-ordinator and practice manager. The ethos of the practice remains the same; providing the best quality of care and making the patients feel at home in their dental practice.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have such a professional dental practice in my hometown. When I was contemplating Invisalign to correct the alignment of my teeth, Chess House were my immediate ‘go to’. They explained the process in a clear and understandable manner, with support and advice available at every stage. The results speak for themselves - I’m now able to smile in pictures! I am so pleased that Chess House guided me through this procedure. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my teeth and oral health!
Community love
Dr Shah has done an amazing job with my teeth, I started Invisalign® a year ago and at the final stages now. My teeth and smile have completely transformed and I’ve got my confidence back. The whitening treatment and composite bonding has been worth it. Highly recommend Chess House!

Community love
I had some cosmetic dental work done recently at Chess House Dental Practice and it was great from start to finish. Yash and his colleagues were brilliant. I felt they really took great care in what they did and also offered me plenty of options along the way, mindful of costs. Thanks so much to all at the practice - I'm very happy with the outcome.
