Caterham is closer to expert implant care than you think

You could stay local, or you could drive 15 minutes and choose a practice built around precise, CBCT-planned implant dentistry. A lot of patients from Caterham decide the second is worth it, and once you understand what changes with proper planning, it is easy to see why.

This page is about the practical side: getting here, parking, and what you actually get for the trip.

Getting to us from Caterham

From Caterham Valley or Caterham-on-the-Hill it is a straightforward run, dropping down off the A22 and across to Purley, around 15 minutes door to door, and an easy hop if you are coming up from M25 Junction 6. We are on Foxley Lane, CR8 3EH, with free on-street parking on the road itself. No multi-storey, no payment apps, no circling for a space, which genuinely matters when you have a handful of planned appointments over a few months.

What the drive actually buys you

The reason patients leave Surrey for this care comes down to a few things you cannot always get nearer to home.

Every implant is planned from a 3D CBCT scan, so placement is mapped to your exact bone and nerve positions before we begin. The dentist who plans your case is the one who places and restores it, so your treatment is not split across people. And the work is backed by a 10-year implant guarantee using Straumann and Southern Implants, two of the most trusted systems in the field.

For full-arch cases, we also offer All-on-4, All-on-5 and All-on-6 solutions, often described as same day teeth, which can rebuild a whole jaw on a small number of implants.

A team worth travelling to

You will be looked after by Dr Nev Jeyakumar, Dr Christine Marzahn or Dr Ankit Patel, in a calm practice that takes time to explain things properly. Caterham patients tell us the combination of careful planning and a friendly, unhurried manner is exactly what made the journey feel worthwhile.
