I took my Mum for her hygienist appointment at Gentle Dental Care and she had an extremely positive experience. Lina was the dental hygienist and she was very friendly, immediately putting my Mum at ease. She was incredibly thorough while still being efficient and my Mum said she is the best hygienist she has ever been to, which was also clear for me to see from the results. I would also like to mention the receptionist, Shami, who was very kind and made us feel genuinely looked after from the moment we arrived. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend Gentle Denta…

Iain Soulsby is an excellent, trusted, skilled and very open dentist and he has been my dentist for over 20 years. He always explains his diagnoses and the options available so I have huge confidence in his abilities and his treatments have stood the test of time. Highly recommended.

I have had a fantastic experience with Gentle Dental Care. Dr Kam and his team have been kind, caring and worked very hard to give me the smile I have always wanted. I cannot thank you all enough! I can now smile with complete confidence and joy!

Fantastic dental practice! I hadn't been to a dentist in 10 years but now look forward to my visits at Gentle Dental. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. My hygienist, Shravani, is warm, welcoming and patient. The emphasis is always on what you can do going forward and not about what you failed to do between appointments.
