Absolutely fantastic dental practice. Customer care is top notch and prices reasonable. All staff members are friendly and helpful, nothing to much bother. The dentist, Andrew is a teeth artist! He is extremely gentle and knows exactly what I wanted. My teeth are even better than I expected. My fear of dentists has obliterated. I totally recommend Essential Dental Practice to anyone. Thank you..
Outstanding service from Essential Dental from the minute you walk through the door your welcomed by a team delivering the expectations of the patient. Nice and easy relaxing experience The team are ambassadors to the practice. Andrew has a fantastic ethos and puts you at ease explaining everything that he and the team are going to do for you the patient. Why would you want to go anywhere else.
I've been registered as a private patient with this practice for over 10 years, I've never had a bad experience and had some extensive treatments. The dentist and hygienist are excellent and offer the latest proven treatments. Well worth the cost.
I have every confidence in Andrew's dentistry skills. His gentle manner and touch and the professionalism of his colleagues make visits to Essential Denral Care as stress free as they could possibly be.
