Our team of dentists, nurses, receptionists and specialists are as caring as they are knowledgeable, and will make you feel at ease from the minute you set foot in our clinic.

Principal dentists and co-owners

Brothers, Laith & Bil Abbas became co-principals of Crouch Hall Dental Care in 2015. Taking over a dental practice carries a lot of responsibility and a huge commitment to the existing staff as well as the local community especially as the clinic had been looking after the crouch end locals for over 98 years.

However they both fell in love with the local area immediately and how close knit the community clearly was. It was with this very positive feeling that they both decided to take on Crouch Hall Dental Care working with the excellent associate dentists who had all been at the practice for a combined 70 years! (See their bios below).

Laith & Bill undertook a large refurbishment of the practice as well as investing in state of the art technology and equipment immediately on becoming co-principals of the practice. They are extremely committed to the practice offering the very best service and clinical care to their existing patients and new patients respectively.

In 2017, we celebrated 100 years since Crouch Hall Dental Care opened its doors and we remain highly committed and motivated in ensuring that we continue to progress the practice and offer our patients excellent dental care.

Dentists with a specialist interest

Dr Dina Abbas

Dentist with special interest in the field of Periodontics | BDS 2006 (Lond) studying PG Dip Perio

GDC number: 106092

I qualified from Queen Mary (university of London) in 2006.

After going straight into general practice at Whitstable for a year, I decided to move back to my hometown of Essex where I practiced as a general dental practitioner.

I realised early on, that periodontics was a passion of mine due to its importance for successful further treatment. Quality dentistry should be built on a foundation of healthy gums and stable teeth. Not addressing the health of your gums and bone surrounding the teeth could lead to early tooth loss and may have implications on systemic health issues.

I am enrolled on a Postgraduate Diploma in Periodontics.

This further study qualifies me to carry out non-surgical and surgical treatment such as pocket reduction surgery (resective and regenerative), gum recession surgery, and crown lengthening surgery ( both aesthetic and restorative). This continual education ensures I'm up to date with the newest research and developments in periodontal therapy, allowing me to put clinical study findings to use in everyday practice.

I am dedicated to helping anxious and nervous patients feel at ease, whilst giving patients the tools, knowledge and motivation to improve their oral health, for life.

In my spare time I enjoy the outdoors with my two dogs and you’ll find me lifting heavy weights at the local gym!
