Dentist in Whitefield
You have probably passed us a hundred times on the way to the tram. Behind the stained glass windows of our Edwardian building on Knowsley Road, just off Bury New Road, Carisbrook Dental has been looking after Whitefield’s smiles for 70 years.
Caring for Whitefield patients since 1956
Whitefield has changed a great deal since our doors first opened, but some things have stayed the same. We still take the time to get to know you, we still explain everything before we start, and we still care about doing the job properly rather than quickly. Many of our Whitefield patients have been with us for decades, and some now bring their children and grandchildren too.
Most dental practices around Whitefield are mixed NHS and private, often with large NHS lists. We work differently. Almost all of our care is private, which gives us time for longer, unhurried appointments. It also means we can keep a team of specialists here in the building, so Whitefield patients rarely need to be sent into Manchester for implants, orthodontics or complex extractions. In fact, many dentists in the area, and further afield, refer their own patients to us. After 70 years in Whitefield, we are proud of our local reputation, and many new patients come to us on the recommendation of friends, family and other dentists.
Treatments available to Whitefield patients
Whatever you need, you can almost always have it done here, a short walk from home:
- Check-ups, hygiene visits and white fillings for the whole family, with combined appointments so you are not coming back and forth
- Children’s dentistry with our specialist children’s dentist
- Dental implants planned with our own 3D CT scanner
- Invisalign with our specialist orthodontist, a Platinum Elite provider
- Teeth whitening, veneers and composite bonding
- Emergency appointments, usually on the same day if you are in pain
Getting to us from Whitefield
For most Whitefield residents, we are close enough to walk.
We are on Knowsley Road, a side road off Bury New Road (A56), just around the corner from Slattery Patissier & Chocolatier and Cookson Cycles.
Whitefield and Besses o’ th’ Barn Metrolink stops are both around a five-minute walk away. Whitefield stop also has a large park and ride car park.
From junction 17 of the M60, head north on Bury New Road (A56) into Whitefield. Knowsley Road is off Bury New Road.

Parking and accessibility
Parking in Whitefield can be tricky at busy times, so we have our own car park with space for 12 cars, and there is free on-street parking nearby. Our car park and entrance are wheelchair accessible, with ramps and dropped kerbs, and we can treat patients with limited mobility in our ground-floor surgeries. Our toilet is on the ground floor, but because our building is protected by a conservation order, we are not able to offer an accessible toilet. Please let us know when you book if you need any help on arrival.

★★★★★ Helen Carey, Whitefield
Carisbrook always great professionals who work hard to put nervous patients like me at ease.Special praise for hygienist Angela, her calm, kind manner really helps, my teeth are in the best shape they have been for years.Thank you.
★★★★★ Ellen Singer, Whitefield
Always a great service. Friendly, warm and approachable while still being effective.
★★★★★ Andrea Jones, Whitefield
My dental experience with Carisbrook started pre Covid.My upper teeth were really poor due to gum disease and I had a broken bridge, plus numerous crowns which needed replacing. I had an implant and quite extensive work, most of which was done by Rhys who I can't thank enough. He made some very difficult procedures seem far less painful.The treatment has completely changed my life and given me so much more confidence. It was worth every penny.
