Patient reviews
From the reviews belowReviewers praise the dentist for clear explanations, skilled treatment, and reassuring care for nervous patients, with one describing long-standing trust in the practice.
A year ago I presented Dr Ali with a serious dental problem - broken bridgework, some metal deeply embedded in a tooth... I had to spend quite a few lengthy sessions in the chair before it was fixed. I'm not saying it was fun - but he couldn't have been clearer explaining what needed to be done - or better at actually doing it. One year on, with a couple of new crowns and much better dental health, I'm very glad it was him I went to. Highly recommended.
I found the experience to be less helpful than I had hoped. Despite explaining that my child was in pain, there seemed to be reluctance to arrange a dental appointment. It appears that her long-term orthodontic treatment is complicating the situation, as it restricts her from easily changing her membership at the surgery. She's in pain now and the woman is asking me to ring up on Thursday.. Whats a money grabbing world this is.. Where is the compassion
As someone who has avoided the dentist out of nervousness for way too long, I was forced to make an emergency appointment when I developed a huge swelling on my jaw from a tooth infection. From the first consultation to my final appointment (just finished today) Ive felt reassured and informed of exactly what was happening. Extremely happy with the service and the work done (root canal, gold cap, deep clean) and my teeth haven’t felt this good in years. My dentist and his assistant were both absolutely lovely and would be happy to recommend this practice to anyone, especially if like me you…
I have always had very good experiences at AP Dental Practice and my family and I have been with them for over two years. I recently got Composite bonding with Dr Ali and I am extremely happy with the results! They are very friendly and I would highly recommend.
