About The Yorkshire Grey
We’re a longstanding, family-run dental practice in the heart of Coggeshall. We get to know you, so your care reflects your needs.
Care that starts with listening
Prevention is at the heart of our care. Every patient is different, so we’ll talk through your needs and tailor our approach to you.
Nervous about visiting?
If dental visits make you feel anxious, let us know. You can expect kindness and patience from our team, and we’ll talk through any concerns with you.
From public house to family practice
The building originally formed the end of a Victorian terrace and served the community as a public house, with a water trough for local working animals. Its name comes from the type of draught horse breweries used to pull delivery carts. You can still see the old pub sign in our waiting room.
In the early 1990s, local dentist Duncan McLean converted the building into a dental practice.
2020–2025
Thoughtfully renewed, inside and out
Between 2020 and 2025, we refreshed the whole practice. From the chair you sit in to the garden outside, we’ve put care into the details that make The Yorkshire Grey feel welcoming.
Comfort in the details
In the waiting room, new furniture and lighting sit alongside the character of the old building. We’ve redecorated throughout and laid new hospital-grade flooring, with a replanted garden completing the refresh outside.
Both surgeries have new dental chairs with comfortable upholstery. We’ve also invested in electric handpieces, digital X-rays and new suction pumps, and introduced an inhalation sedation system.
There’s been plenty of work behind the scenes, too. We’ve moved to computerised patient notes, created a new practice website and equipped our dental lab with a 3D printer and thermoformer.
Looking after our environment
We’re working to reduce the environmental impact of our practice.
