Walmsley Dental is your local dental practice for implants — and we’re actually local. We’re just over a mile away in Droylsden, on Manchester Road, where many Audenshaw patients can walk to us. You don’t need to drive across Manchester to see an implant specialist: we’re here, we’ve been here since 1984, and we hold a 4.9★ Google rating from over 340 patient reviews.
We’ve served Audenshaw families — and their parents and grandparents — for over 40 years. Our Audenshaw implant patients appreciate the continuity: the same clinicians, the same team, the same faces year after year.
Single dental implant from £2,750. All-on-4 from £10,000 per arch. All-on-6 from £12,000 per arch. Implant consultation £50, fully redeemable against treatment.
A family practice that’s been serving Audenshaw since 1984
Walmsley Dental is on Manchester Road — the same road that runs through Audenshaw. The practice was founded in 1984 by Stephen and Heather Walmsley, and is run today by their son Dr Edward Walmsley (GDC No. 202897) and his wife Emma Walmsley. That makes us one of the longest-established dental practices serving Audenshaw, and one of the few where you’ll see the same clinicians year after year.
For implant patients, continuity matters. Implants are a long-term tooth replacement, and the practice that places them needs to still be there in 5, 10, 20 years for hygiene, monitoring, and the rare repair. We’ve been here for over 40 years, with 340+ five-star Google reviews behind us, and we’re not going anywhere.
It’s not just the family clinicians who’ve stayed. Our receptionist Loren joined the practice as a 16-year-old in the 1980s and is still on the front desk today, 40+ years later. Many of our Audenshaw patients have been seeing the same familiar faces across two — sometimes three — generations of their own family.
You can see what life inside the practice is actually like on our Instagram — @walmsleydental — where we regularly share before/after implant cases, treatment journeys, and behind-the-scenes content from the team.

Audenshaw implant FAQs
Why should I choose Walmsley Dental for implants rather than a bigger Manchester practice?
Because we’re down the road from you, not across town. Implants require ongoing monitoring and hygiene over many years. Our Audenshaw patients tell us they prefer seeing the same familiar team, knowing the practice has been stable for over 40 years, and getting a fixed quote without the corporate upsell pressure.
Can I really walk to Walmsley Dental from Audenshaw?
Many of our Audenshaw patients on the Manchester Road side do walk to us — we’re less than a mile away. Driving takes about 5 minutes from most areas of Audenshaw.
How does your pricing compare to larger Manchester implant centres?
Competitive with other private implant providers in Audenshaw and considerably below Manchester city-centre specialist implant centres. Fixed written quote after consultation — no surprise add-ons. All-on-4 (£10,000 per arch) typically £4,000–£8,000 below central Manchester centres.
Is the implant procedure done in one visit?
For most cases, no — placement is a single appointment under local anaesthetic, then 3–4 months for the implant to integrate before fitting the final crown.
What if I need bone grafting before I can have implants?
Bone grafting and sinus lifts are quoted separately and depend on what your CBCT scan shows. Many patients don’t actually need grafting once we’ve taken the scan.
Can I see a written treatment plan before I commit?
Yes — every patient leaves the first appointment with a written treatment plan and fixed quote. The £50 consultation fee is fully redeemable.
What’s your success rate for dental implants?
Single implants we place have an integration success rate above 97%, in line with the published clinical evidence for premium implant systems placed by experienced clinicians.
What makes Walmsley Dental different from corporate dental chains?
Family-owned and family-run. Founded by Stephen and Heather Walmsley in 1984, now run by their son Dr Edward Walmsley with his wife Emma. Continuity of care, no rotating clinicians, no upsell pressure.
