I wish I could rate Zero!!!!!! It’s taken me a while to write this, I went to the practice once before and it just came up in my search for a new dentist. I believe that not all situations are the same and some might just have a more negative experience than others however after reading the reviews here I am utterly shocked that so many of us have experienced the same treatment. Fearful of dentists, I thought that this could be a good place to go with the way they are marketed but I have to say the shock was something I was NOT prepared for. I went to my appointment already nervous and thes…

I've been coming to the Gentle Dentist for about 20 years and can't think of anything I could fault during that time. Toni has the perfect touch for a dentist, doing the potentially painful stuff quickly, confidently and with plenty of analgesia! Chris the hygienist gets teeth really clean with the minimum discomfort. Sally, Karine and the rest of the support team are helpful and effective. They always do their utmost to fit in urgent appointments and provide great advice over the phone. Their professionalism and service are the best.

I’ve been going to the Gentle Dentist for almost 20 years. I’ve had major and minor procedures done, and regular cleaning with their hygienists. It has always been a very positive experience for me: professional and gentle. Their rates are reasonable for London. My wife and other members of my family also go to them now, having recently switched from another dentist, and have had similarly positive experiences. I am happy to recommend them without hesitation.

Very good, kind staff - their lead dentist is extremely competent and skilled. Great hygienists too. Always a pain free experience. Decent value too especially given the central London location. Trust them more than the chain dentists.
