I am petrified of the dentist. Petrified doesn't do it justice - I am in floods of tears in the waiting room whenever I have a filling - and I have soft teeth, so fillings are a regular occurrence for me. But Whitecross, whom I've been to for my past 2 fillings, are entirely different.
They are very welcoming and put me right at ease. The receptionist could see that I was nervous (and no, I wasn't crying..yet) and she sat with me. A check-up costs £30 for two in the year and a filling is an extra £30 or thereabouts. My mum came here to get her fillings changed to white ones and cost her a total of £115 for them all. Bargain!
With each check-up is a complimentary dental-hygiene appointment. Although it's not the most pleasant experience, you know it has to be done.
Overall, it's a very professional dentist and puts me at total ease. I can see my fears fading here! read more
