Thinking back to the first time I ever stepped foot inside true dentistry, I can't believe that one lady and her devoted team could change my life so much.
I was born with a genetic tooth disorder called Amelogenesis Imperfecta, in layman's terms this basically means I have no enamel on my teeth so they are very discoloured and sensitive. From the age of 6 I started to have treatment on my teeth on the NHS but they only agreed to crown the front four as anything more would be classed as cosmetic. I was bullied terribly at school and had virtually no confidence. I point blank refused to smile or talk in front of anyone who was not in my family.
After attending a private clinic in Manchester for a number of years, I had most of my teeth crowned. But due to the distance and the cost of the treatment I decided not to attend anymore. Everything was fine for a number of years but I began to notice a lot of discolouration around my crowns and eventually around 6 came off and I was back to square one again. Afraid to smile and no confidence, which as a young adult in her early twenties was horrific!
I started to look online for private dentists in the Bolton area, and came across True Dentistry (was kendalmere back then). I had a look on their website and read some reviews and I was impressed so I made an appointment for a consultation. I was quite nervous at first as there is a certain stigma surrounding private healthcare organisations. Would they think I wasn't posh enough to attend? It all seems really stupid now I know you all!
At the consultation we discussed the various options I could take and I felt under no pressure whatsoever. The choice was mine. I decided to get all my teeth re crowned.
After 2 years the work is finally done. It has been a long journey but it all seems worth it when I see pictures of myself and I am actually smiling!! From stubborn wisdom teeth and receding gums to nerves that won't go numb when instructed to do so, it's all been worthwhile!
The care and professionalism that the staff at True have are second to none. I could not wish for a better dentist, in fact I don't class you as my dentist anymore. You're more of a friend. Not many people can say they have their dentist as a friend on facebook!
Lubna's staff; Natalie, Suzanne, Tracey and Angela are amazing, dedicated ladies who make my trip to the dentist an enjoyable experience. Nothing is ever too much for them, even babysitting my son when I had to have my wisdom tooth out, (thanks for that Suzanne!) Thank you ladies! Especially Tracey, who worked hard with me to get my dental hygiene spick and span
I would recommend True Dentistry to anyone and I often do. I can't remember the last time I went out and someone didn't comment on how amazing my teeth are. Thank you so much ladies, I am a shadow of my former self. I am confident, happy and smiley. Thanks for everything you have done. read more
