The Gallery Dental and Implant Centre

What The Gallery Dental and Implant Centre does

The Gallery Dental and Implant Centre is a private dental practice based in Buckingham, United Kingdom, operating as part of The Gallery Dental Group alongside the affiliated Meadow Walk Dental Practice. The business is owned and operated by principal implantologist Dr. Selvaraj Balaji, who has worked in private practice in Buckingham for over 15 years and has placed more than 2,000 dental implants across his career. The practice serves private and NHS patients from Buckingham and surrounding areas including Bicester, Milton Keynes, Aylesbury, Brackley, Winslow and Banbury, with its catchment spanning the borders of Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire.

The practice operates as a full-service dental clinic offering general dentistry (examinations, hygiene, fillings, root canal), cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening, veneers, Invisalign), specialist services (dental implants, bone grafting, endodontics), facial rejuvenation, and emergency/out-of-hours care. Its core technical differentiator is an integrated digital dentistry workflow built around in-house CT scanning, intraoral digital scanning, and CEREC CAD/CAM same-day crown milling — capabilities that eliminate the need for external imaging or laboratory referrals and enable single-appointment restorative procedures. The practice also specialises in complex implant cases including bone regeneration and grafting for patients previously told they are unsuitable for implants, supported by a 10-year implant guarantee.

The business model is primarily transactional pay-as-you-go per procedure, with published unit pricing ranging from £67 standard examinations to £3,950+ for Invisalign and up to £4,250 for 9-month bone grafting. A subscription layer was added via the Privilege Plan (Essential Care at £27.50/month for adults, Child Dental Care Plan at £7.58/month), generating modest recurring revenue. Patient acquisition runs through direct bookings (telephone, online portal via uk.dentalhub.online), word-of-mouth, community sponsorships (Buckingham Half Marathon, YC2 Young Carers, Mortonville football team), and an active dental referral programme ingesting specialist implant cases from general practitioners across the three-county region. Dr. Balaji also runs The Academy of Soft and Hard Tissue Augmentation (ASHA), an educational venture training other implantologists in the UK and Europe.
