I have been with Dental Distinction for years on and off due to being married to the military and they have always accepted me back. The team are so friendly and lovely the Maria is just an amazing dentist. She really listens. I wouldn't go anywhere else

I adore this practice, and the people working here. I used to be a nervous wreck, but Marie and her staff are marvellous. I’ve been coming here for 13 years, and I’m never worried about coming. I have a gum problem, so also come for regular hygienist appointments. I feel confident that they can and are helping me manage this. Highly recommended.

Although I find it difficult to go to a dentist, Marie and her team always welcome me and make me feel as comfortable as possible. They are all very kind and patient. As to Marie's dentistry skills I trust her 100% and more. She has saved several of my teeth (previous dentists would have extracted them)I have recommended her to several friends and will continue to do so. I have been a patient with Dental Distinction since 2008.

I have just started going to see Marie at Dental Distinction. I had a bad experience at my previous Dentist which left me anxious about going again. It put me off for many years. I explained my anxiety and I can't say enough about how supportive, kind, understanding and nice Marie was. I have had a tooth extraction, and she and her equally wonderful assistant kept me at ease throughout the entire process. What an absolutely amazing surgery with such professional and thoughtful people. Thank you all!
