I'm updating my review very quickly, as I have been at this practice 3 times in the last 3 weeks, and I'm really happy with the treatment and service that I have received every time. This place genuinely deserves its 5 stars. For a dentist, I think that in itself is truly remarkable!
Firstly, Preeti is the loveliest dentist on earth. She is so reassuring, so patient, and just has such a lovely manner. I feel in very safe hands with Preeti.
Since my initial visit, I have had a further 2 visits, to have composite put onto 3 of my teeth, as I have very bad enamel erosion, for various annoying reasons. I have been really scared of injections into my mouth my entire life. I think I must have had one when I was a child and have had the fear ever since. My whole adult life, I have not had any injections into my mouth. So for the first treatment with Preeti, I had no injection, and had composite put onto 2 front teeth. I was getting a bit tense and a bit jumpy, and jumpy is not good when you are having composites put on, so Preeti very patiently suggested that perhaps I had had enough for one day, and she would do the third tooth another time. That was a great suggestion.
I had a week to build up courage, and today I actually took an injection. I was a bit jumpy again the first time she tried so the lovely nurse held onto my hands, and the ever-patient Preeti ever so gently did the injection. And then the treatment was SO MUCH EASIER! Honestly, I couldn't feel a thing. I couldn't feel my nose never mind my lips or teeth for a few hours afterwards either, but that doesn't matter. If like me, you have been scared of mouth-jags, take it from me - just DO IT. Get it done and the treatment will be so much better, honestly. Preeti has helped me overcome my life-long fear, and I will be forever grateful.
The dental nurse on reception was so nice again - I love her too. I even got an Elsa from Frozen sticker cos I was such a brave girl, hahahaaa!
I'm really happy with the results so far. I've now to wait 3 months, using my special toothpaste, then I've to go back to talk about the possible next stage - more orthodontics. Strangely, now that I feel in safe hands, I'm almost looking forward to this. read more
