I'd contemplated cosmetic dentistry for years but been put off by the possible cost. Nevertheless, I decided to take the plunge and went in for a consultation. I felt no embarrassment, At first the cost seemed high but the level of care and courtesy and, above all, the quality of dentistry made it worthwhile. Now, when people talk to me, they look at my face instead of my teeth!.

I never leave reviews but I have had a bad experience with this dentist and it needs to be put on…read morerecord. I went to them for a new denture but they persuaded me to have a two unit implant instead. This cost over £2000. When the crown went on the implant it was fitted too tightly against the small incisor tooth next to it. I knew this immediately and told the dentist but he assured me all was well then and again the next day when I called him. This was 7 months ago and that tooth has never recovered. The dentist subsequently implied that this tooth was already lose because I was grinding my teeth. He raised no concerns about the health of that tooth before fitting the implant and it was most definetely not lose. In addition he offered me no follow up appointment after fitting the crown and initially offered me virtually no advice on dental hygene in cleaning around the area and protecting the damaged tooth. The appointments were short and he appeared in a rush. I am very disappointed with the service from Mr Solanki. Part of the rationale he gave me for having an implant instead of a denture was that it would protect the tooth next to it and give it greater longevity. This has been far from the case. My NHS dentist has told me that the long term outlook for this tooth is now very poor. It remains lose and at some stage will need to be removed. I raised all this with Mr Solanki at the last appointment I had with him and he said he was happy with the outcome of the treatment.

Before beginning the treatment at this place, we confirmed "twice" with the advisor at the…read morereception that the proposed treatment is "NHS treatment" and not a "private treatment". This was necessary in our case as my dental insurance policy only covers "NHS treatment". The advisor at the reception desk reiterated after confirming with other colleague that this is indeed an "NHS treatment". After getting the assurance we decided to go ahead with the treatment that lasted over few months. After completing the treatment, I tried to reimburse the money using my insurance policy and they informed me that a full payment of the treatment can not be issued because this is not an "NHS treatment". After this I called the dental practice again and this time the advisor told me that the treatment I underwent is classed as "non-essential treatment and not an NHS treatment". This was completely opposite to what we were told at the beginning of the treatment. They simply shrug off their responsibility by saying oh you have signed the form! However, before signing the forms we did ask them twice to clarify if this was an NHS treatment or not and they did confirm that it's an NHS treatment. This "U" turn from their side means that I cannot reimburse the treatment money. Not only that but the quality of the treatment itself was questionable. For example, during my first treatment which should have only lasted for 30 minutes (again that is the time advised by them) it took them over an hour to complete the treatment. The reason being lack of adequate equipment which they had to share between the different rooms in this practice. Not only that but the assistant had no clue of what equipment was being requested by the Dr. carrying out the surgery and hence was bringing in a different equipment every time.

It was abusive and very upsetting and traumatised me with a fear of the dentist It left me very anxious going to the dentist for a very long time . I had a problem with my front tooth since this awful dentistry I had 12 years ago. I had many things done to rectify the problem but never really solved I then found Dr Deepti Varanasi , and what a treasure she has been. I had other teeth problems and extraction and they were all done with such care . July this year Dr Varanasi replaced a front crown that just did not sit right . It was done with such care and attention , and time to get this tooth just right . The attention to detail was first class. I was always asked throughout the procedure was I comfortable . I can not praise Dr Deepti Varanasi enough so a big , big thank you for your expertise and kindness I must mention Kay the Dental nurse who suggested Dr Varanasi to me and has been there on many of my procedures and has been marvellous too , big thank you to you . Not forgetting reception staff especially Sara who I have known for a long time now and is always so helpful. Must not forget Cherelle on reception.

I originally found them through NHS choices and they were very highly rated on there. I was looking to have my rather horrible wonky teeth sorted out for my upcoming. The website was awash with promises of what they could offer me, of how easy it would be etc and my honest initial feeling was one of "This sounds too good to be true" but I quickly found upon meeting them all, that it wasn't, they really are just that good at what they do. I'm through the process now of having braces and all that goes with that process and despite the obvious issues of having braces, I don't have a single issue or complaint about Khalid or his team. Exemplary service and support from everyone there. Couldn't be more pleased with end result. Not just clean, straight teeth but a new found passion my overall oral hygiene that will ensure they stay that way. Cant recommend Bank View Smile Studios highly enough. If you are considering having some dental work done or just want a new dentist, just go for it, you will not be disappointed.

Like, ever…read more But the Bupa Dental Centre is situated on St Anne's Square in the middle of Manchester city centre so it's super-easy for me to get to - less than a five minute walk, in fact. The staff are friendly and my dentist explains everything he's doing as you lie there, mouth wide open and shaking at the thought of what's going to happen next. One thing that bothers me though, is that they will try various tactics to get you to part with more cash. I know that's probably the case for any dental surgery these days, but about a week ago, they called me and recommended a clean, which would set me back £40. They said it's not essential so I politely turned them down. I mean, why pay all that money then eat something an hour later which will just make a mess of your teeth again? Ridic! I'm having quite a bit of pre-wedding dental work done here over the next few months so may report back with more details but at the moment, Bupa Dental Centre are going to have to settle for a simple 'meh' from me.
