A BOLTON dentist has opened his 11th dental practice after adding three more over the past seven months despite all the challenges of lockdown.

Dr Zuber Bagasi, clinical director of the Synergy Dental Clinics group, opened his latest practice in Deardengate in Haslingden last week.

During 2021, he launched surgeries in Macclesfield, Oldham and in Market Street, Adlington.

Synergy also has dental practices in Birmingham, Blackpool, Preston, Ormskirk and in Tenterden Street in Bury plus two in Bolton. One local surgery is in Blackburn Road and the other in Higher Swan Lane in Great Lever.

Dr Bagasi, who lives in Lostock and opened modern office premises in Waters Meeting in Bolton, commented: “I am delighted we have now launched another practice and can see the Synergy group growing so comprehensively.

“Although, like all dentists, we had our restrictions and challenges last year in particular, we wanted to continue our expansion and to continue giving clients the top-class treatment and services they now expect from Synergy.

“We’re delighted with the response from clients in our new areas and look forward to helping hundreds more people across the North West in 2022 and beyond.”

The newest practices, like all of the group’s surgeries, will offer specialist services including Invisalign – a form of brace using its own blend of plastic for clear tray teeth aligners which gradually move teeth into a better position.

Synergy is in the top one per cent of Invisalign providers in the UK.

Synergy also specialises in dental implants and is one of the highest providers of Straumann implants in the North West.

It also offers teeth whitening, smile makeovers, state-of-the-art digital smile designs and all other aspects of dentistry including general check-ups.

Since he started Synergy in 2007, Dr Bagasi has steadily grown and developed the company.

Along the way, he and his teams have won a host of regional and national awards for their work including individually for Dr Bagasi as a leader in his field and for developing a training platform.

Dr Bagasi has long been involved in training young dentists and last year spearheaded a national campaign to help counter the stress of their profession and reduce suicide rates.
