Welcome
Welcome to Chafford Hundred Dental Care
Dr Basrai provides family, restorative and cosmetic dentistry for patients across Chafford Hundred, Grays and Thurrock. Many of our patients have been with us for years, and many first came to us through a friend.
We are a boutique practice. We keep our daily numbers low so that every patient gets our full attention, and we explain every option and fee in writing before treatment starts.
We are also proud to offer a bespoke denture service through Changing Faces within our practice.

Meet your dentist
Dr Jagmail (Dave) Basrai
“When I meet new patients, I ask myself: if this were me or my family member, what would be the right solution and how would I want to be treated?”
Dr Basrai is warm and inviting in his style and a perfectionist about his technical work. He is a family man, driven by his passion for dentistry, and he will take time to talk to anyone who wants to discuss their smile or general dental health.
