Patient reviews
I researched extensively as I wanted to have composite bonding but I am also very scared of the dentist. I read the reviews on The Dental Works and was really happy with what I read. My teeth were quite crooked and thought this was the solution. On my first appointment, I was made really comfortable and the staff were reassuring and kind. They discussed my options and I realised bonding would not be for me. They discussed Invisalign with me ( I was attending my Godaughters wedding in 6 months and wanted the perfect smile) Jay was my dentist and he promised I would have the smile I wanted …

I needed an emergency dentist appointment urgently as I’d suddenly gained huge facial swelling and pain in my mouth.

The dental exam with Dr Jay Pala was reassuring and very professional. We discussed different options and there was no pressure at all. I felt well looked after and listened to throughout, and would definitely recommend.
