Staff at a leading North East dental group are all smiles after being named the best dental team in the region, in recognition of their outstanding commitment to patient care.
Honour Health, based in Stanley, has won the prestigious title of Best Team: North East at the national Dentistry Awards 2024.
Honour Health Stanley is one of three practices in the Honour Health Group - an independent, family run group with dental practices across the North East - in Stanley, Ponteland and Jesmond.
The Dentistry Awards 2024 celebrates excellence in dental practice, recognising dental professionals for their achievements and advancements. This prestigious event highlights talent, innovation, and dedication in dentistry. Nominees are chosen for their exceptional skills, patient care, and community contributions. The awards not only honour individual and team accomplishments but also inspire continued excellence in oral health care.
For Honour Health’s entries, the team provided examples of clinical excellence, marketing literature, team training and development information, evidence of team leadership and happiness, examples of how they go beyond the regular duty of care, how they connect with the local community, and patient testimonials.
Principal dentist Dr Onkar Dhanoya has been at the helm of the Honour Health Group for 38 years. He opened the first of the three practices in Stanley in 1986, followed by Jesmond in 2001 and Ponteland in 2015.
Dr Dhanoya said: “We are thrilled to have achieved this wonderful recognition at the Dentistry Awards. These accolades reflect what a truly talented, committed group of people we have working at Honour Health, and it is the perfect conclusion to a fantastic year of continued growth and development for our team. It is a great privilege to fly the flag for the North East on the national dental stage.
“We are delighted to have been helping our patients achieve smiles they love for more than three decades now. We have always continually invested in our team, the latest equipment and facilities, and we are looking forward to embarking on exciting plans for 2025 and beyond as the world of digital dentistry continues to evolve.”
The Honour Health Group has also been shortlisted in the categories of Best Patient Care, Best Practice and Best Team at the Private Dentistry Awards 2024. The winners will be announced at a London ceremony in November.
Dentists at Honour Health have a broad range of special interests, including endodontics, Invisalign, dental implants and aesthetic dentistry. The clinics feature a wide range of advanced facilities including Itero scanners for digital treatment planning and Invisalign smile outcome simulations, a dedicated dental implant suite, an operating microscope for complex endodontic treatment, 3-shape scanners, intra-oral cameras, digital radiography and CBCT scans to aid diagnosis and treatment planning.
The Honour Health Group has invested in state of the art EMS Airflow hygiene systems for all three practices, which is the only system that is suitable for sub-gingival cleaning during hygienist appointments. Airflow quickly and comfortably removes staining and biofilm, for brighter, healthier smiles.
