We are Pontcanna Dental Care

About us

We treat people, not just teeth.

Based in Cardiff, our practice has developed an expertise in both general and cosmetic dentistry. We want every visit to be a positive experience, we treat our patients in a gentle, relaxed manner.

About us

There’s been a practice here on Cathedral Street since 1965 when it was owned by David Watson-James. Dentist’s Alyn and Charlie then acquired the practice back in 2004, when Pontcanna Dental Care was a single surgery practice. Since then, the practice and our very talented team of professionals has grown.

Our core values include promoting good oral health, and putting each patient in control of how they receive exceptional dentalcare. We live and breathe these values in every single appointment.

We care for over 2000 smiles

We recognise that dental care can cause anxiety and worry, so we've been proud to do things differently. It’s our belief that trust and confidence can be built from the very first interaction, and we work hard to nurture it in every conversation thereafter.

Our appointments are never rushed, so your dental care practitioner can focus on delivering an exceptional service on every visit.

With over 100 years of experience in the team, our calm, confident clinicians are looking after over 2,000 smiles in the Cardiff area, and we’d be delighted to take care of yours.

Meet Alyn Humphreys

BDS (Birmingham) 1986

GDC: 61029

Alyn was born and brought up in Cardiff. After qualifying he returned to work near home and has worked at the practice since 1988, first as an associate and now as a partner at Pontcanna Dental Care.

Alyn has enjoyed spending that time developing long term relationships with all his patients. The care provided by Alyn is of the highest standard, and he ensures that the “teeth for life message” of Pontcanna Dental Care continues.

In his spare time Alyn is devoted, in part, to Glamorgan Wanderers RFC, and enjoys safaris to Africa where he's developed a passion for photography.

Meet Charlie Stephanakis

BDS (Bristol) 1985

GDC: 60470

Originally from Cardiff, Charlie now lives locally with his family. After qualifying, he joined an exclusive West End practice, refining the smiles of media personalities and helping clients have their own healthy teeth for life.

Responding to an increase in national demand for personal private dentistry, Charlie then relocated to Cheltenham. Here, he focused on helping clients to achieve radiant smiles by providing cosmetic dentistry, care for dental-phobics, and client focused dentistry.

Charlie's hard work and dedication was recognised with the “Dentist of the Year” award in 2001. He was also a runner up in the BT and Daily Telegraph customer service awards. Charlie is really passionate about listening to, and providing for the patient’s individual needs.

In his spare time Charlie loves rugby, good wine and food.
