 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having a great fear of the dentist from my teens and having neglected my teeth since, i was forced to seek attention when my two front upper teeth came out. Gavin at Dental solutions was superb, putting me totally at ease. I then had all my top teeth replaced by implants. This was a totally free of pain experience. Two years later following a facial collision with a dog, I had four loose bottom teeth at the front. Another trip to see Gavin and again superb treatment throughout and painless. Another implant. The service at Dental Solutions is first class from the receptionists through to the dentist. I would recommend them without reservation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An outstanding experience from beginning to end. I first connected with Dental Solutions through a friend's referral. Initially, I had planned to go to Turkey because I was unhappy with my smile and felt very self-conscious about it. Before making that decision, I visited Dental Solutions to see if there was any way to preserve my original teeth instead of undergoing invasive procedures abroad. The team exceeded my expectations at every step. Lauren suggested Invisalign treatment, and the results were incredible—my smile was completely transformed. She monitored my progress closely, even providing a home camera kit and regularly checking in via text to ensure everything was going smoothly.

After the Invisalign treatment was complete, Gavin recommended edge bonding and assured me the results would be fantastic. Given my exceptional experience up to that point, I trusted their expertise and proceeded with the edge bonding. When I came in for the procedure, Dr. Amit delivered outstanding results. Having spoken with others who’ve had similar work done elsewhere, I can confidently say that the quality and care I received were unmatched. Dr. Amit took his time, thoroughly explaining each step and demonstrating his genuine passion for dentistry.

Overall, the experience offered excellent value for money and was truly enjoyable. It has renewed my commitment to staying on top of dental appointments and restored my confidence in visiting the dentist. I highly recommend them.

I recently had to have a crown fitted and it was completely painless, Lauren is so lovely and puts you at ease keeping you informed of everything that’s going to happen. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I visited Victoria Middleton the dental hygienist this week. She was extremely thorough and talked through the process and highlighted areas which need a little more attention with brushing. Having had a lot of dental work previously I now feel that I am completely supported by Lauren and the team.
I have every confidence in the team at Dental Solutions.

Recently had some veneers with Dental Solutions. I was really nervous and scared about having it done. There was no need it was unbelievable I didn’t feel anything. I just wished I’d had it done years ago they were great they were friendly they were professional and every time I go there, they made me relaxed.so 10 out of 10 for the experience and 11 out of 10 for the results they look so natural everyone’s commented that I’m smiling more. I feel confident in myself best ever investment I’ve done so thank you it’s helped give me more confidence and I can’t stop smiling

I was very impressed with the high-tech scanner that was used to form an impression of my teeth and the crown that was made from this fits perfectly (I've previously had bad experiences with ill-fitting crowns at another dentist)! Both Gavin + the environment (there is even a TV on the ceiling) helped me to feel calm and appropriate amount of local anaesthetic was used.

Because of previous experiences I entered Dental Solution very apprehensive. My dentist is Lauren who immediatly put me at ease. Very friendly, patient, honest, professional and subsequently amazing at her job - excellent team too. Definately recommended. Didn't feel a thing. Thanks Lauren, you've restored my smile. I'm so happy 😁.

I really wasn’t happy with my front teeth due to them being discoloured after having root canals many years ago. I hated my teeth and had lost so much confidence over the years due to how they looked. Your smile is the first thing people look at, which made me keep my mouth closed in photos and try and hide them whenever meeting new people.I went with my partner to Dental Solutions, where I had a free consultation with Lauren. Lauren was brilliant from the get go, she made me feel comfortable and was really friendly and professional. This was my first visit to the dentist in years, but she made me feel really relaxed and at ease given the circumstances.At the consultation, Lauren had time to go through my options with me and tell me about what the best course of action was. I then had an x-ray and before you know it, I was at the start of my journey with Lauren and the team.Fast forward a few months later, I can’t stop smiling. A few fillings, enlighten whitening and three crowns later, I am so happy with my smile again for the first time in so long.I am amazed at the results and I am so happy with my teeth. I can’t thank Lauren and the team enough for how amazing they were with me, from start to finish. I’ve already recommended Dental Solutions to others and I won’t be going anywhere else in the future.Brilliant service, excellent work and another very happy customer! Thank you!

23 November 2022 Check Up Appointment and Hygenist, I was seen on time, treatment was carried out very professionally. Check up was equally efficient including two x-rays. Very happy with the service provided and would highly recommend Dental Solutions.

Gavin fitted a crown on a molar and he eased my nervousness throughout the whole process. They must have some serious state of the art equipment there as I was able to hold a 3D representation of my teeth without any moulds being taken. Amazing tech. I am always confident that I will receive the best possible care and advice from Gavin and his specialist support staff.

As always the treatment received was excellent. Following a recent infection I have needed 3 recent visits. All of the team are friendly and welcoming, and I have been treated with respect. The treatment has been excellent. At all stages I was kept informed and involved in the process. Thank you everyone.
