Private dental practice
Meet the team
Smile Dental Clinic is a private dental clinic based in the heart of Hopton-on-Sea, Great Yarmouth.
Our ethos is simple. We extend the same level of care to you as we would to our own family.
Our practice is led by Sarah Godbolt, our practice owner and dental hygienist/therapist, and our dentist Dr Amaka Ngwuocha, who each bring 24 years of experience in dentistry. Sarah's knowledge, professionalism and approachable nature help every patient feel welcome and supported from the moment they walk through the door.
Together, the practice provides general and restorative dentistry, including crowns, bridges, veneers, dentures and root canal treatment. Sarah has experience treating gum disease and welcomes direct access hygiene appointments if you have a dentist elsewhere.

Sarah Godbolt
Dental Hygienist/Therapist and Owner

She worked for several years at BUPA Dental Practice on Gorleston High Street before opening her own clinic. Seeing how the pandemic affected access to dental care in Norfolk motivated her to create a friendly, relaxed and caring practice in Hopton.
