A BLACKBURN dental surgery is hoping to be all smiles after being shortlisted for a national award.

Magicsmiles, in Preston Old Road, is aiming to be crowned ‘private dentistry practice of the year’ at the Private Dentistry Awards 2010.

It has also entered the ‘best marketing’ category.

The Cherry Tree practice was last year selected as one of the top 10 ‘most innovative practices’ in the UK.

The winners will be revealed at an awards ceremony at the InterContinental Hotel, in Park Lane, London on Friday, November 5.
