Nicola Owen - Clinical Director

Hello my name is Nicola, I qualified from Manchester Dental Hospital in 1985 and keep wondering where has the time gone?! I worked in and around Manchester in a number of practices before setting up The Dental Health Centre in 1990. It seems like yesterday, we have rapidly grown to a popular 4 surgery practice in the centre of Didsbury village!

I have always enjoyed doing a full range of treatments and over the last 20 years I’ve particularly enjoyed working with nervous patients. I have a Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling/Psychotherapy and have used my skills to provide a unique and successful approach for treating phobic patients. In addition, I provide Inhalation Sedation for adults and children who struggle to cope with dental treatment.

I work with a great team at The Dental Health Centre and together we provide a professional and friendly environment. As Clinical Director, most of my time is now focussed on overseeing the running of the practice.

In my spare time I enjoy walking/cycling, more recently art and spending time with friends and family. I am a committed Christian and this has always been central to my work and my home life.

“Nicky Owen has been my dentist for over 22 years. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is extremely professional, explains issues clearly and has excellent communication skills. I feel put at ease in her capable, gentle hands” – Julie

“The team at The Dental Health Centre are brilliant – I feel completely safe there. The atmosphere is welcoming and personal and the quality of dentistry is exceptional. I’ve been a patient for over 15 years and wouldn’t even consider going anywhere else” – Alice
