A DENTAL firm with a practice in Keighley has been shortlisted for two national accolades.

Taylored Dental Care is a finalist in The Dentistry Awards.

The company is shortlisted in the Patient Care category.

And team member Matt Varley is up against three other contenders for the Clinical Dental Technician Of The Year title.

Winners will be announced in a ceremony at The Athena, Leicester, on September 13.

A spokesperson for Taylored Dental Care says: "We are so excited to have reached the final.

"Patient care is at the heart of everything we do. Our key focus is on helping nervous patients. So to receive this recognition is fantastic."

Taylored Dental Care has a practice in Cavendish Street and at two other locations in West Yorkshire – Idle and Wibsey.

Last year it opened a third surgery at its Keighley site, where it has been based for around 15 years, to help cater for increased demand for private treatment.

The Dentistry Awards were introduced to celebrate excellence in dental practice.

A spokesperson says: "The awards programme highlights talent, innovation and dedication in dentistry.

"Nominees are chosen for their exceptional skills, patient care and community contributions.

"The awards not only honour individual and team accomplishments, but also aim to inspire continued excellence in oral health care.

"Congratulations to all those shortlisted."
