About Us

Welcome to Belle Vue Dental Practice!

At Belle Vue Dental Practice, we understand how important it is to find a dentist your family can trust. Whether you’re bringing in your little one for their first visit or seeking advanced care for yourself, our experienced team is here for every stage of your dental journey.

Since 2006, Philip Moore and Owen Higgs have owned Ilkley Dental Care, and in 2018, they brought their experience and patient-focused approach to Skipton by taking over Belle Vue Dental Practice. Their leadership has helped establish a high standard of care and a friendly, professional environment for all who visit.

Avoiding the dentist can lead to more than just discomfort, untreated dental issues can affect overall wellbeing, confidence, and quality of life. That’s why we focus not only on exceptional care but also on prevention, education, and comfort.

Our modern facilities blend cutting-edge technology with a calming, family-friendly environment, designed to make you feel relaxed from the moment you arrive. From regular dental health checks to advanced treatments, we provide comprehensive private dental care tailored to your needs.

Our Ethos

Our ethos is focused on long-term preventative dental care, we believe that all patients should receive continuity of dental care and if seen regularly we can help to prevent dental problems that would otherwise cause damage to your oral health.

We are here first to address any of your dental needs and concerns. Our promise is to listen to you, understand what you want and then give you advice on all the treatment options available with a full breakdown of costs. We will always explain your treatment to you in a non-technical language that you can understand and keep you updated on treatment progress step-by-step.

  • Everything fine as usual. Always a good atmosphere at Reception and in the Surgery. Filling rather bigger than expected - by me. Extended dental plate proving a little uncomfortable. Philip shave a bit off - problem solved. Many thanks

  • The dentist listened, reassured me and gave a good dental examination. I left feeling positive and looking forward to my next appointment. That is not normal for me. I will be getting more information about the treatment plans and will find the right one for me.

    After a 6-month search around Skipton for a decent dental surgery, I came across Belle Vue. A very friendly welcome (with one client actively reassuring me of quality treatment and fair charges!) led to immediate signing in. Before the new appointment, I suffered a dental emergency: they changed to an earlier time. I met Owen Higgs, one of their surgeons, who was very friendly and did a great job in just 45 minutes and at a very reasonable price. I'm happy and am encouraging my wife to follow suit.

  • Owen Higgs has a lovely manner that relaxes and reassures you completely before, after and during treatment. Chatting to you first and asking if you are OK during treatment. His treatment has always been pain free, efficient, and the time passes quickly. He also shares exactly what he needs to do.
