As a very nervous person about visiting dentist, I had to be seen to have a tooth out,I can not say thankyou enough to shree,what an amazing lady throughout my tooth extraction she kept talking to me and reassuring I was in good hands etc ,so a big thankyou to you again 😀
I’ve been going to Smiles Ahead for almost 5 years now and I’ve got nothing but great words to say. I called for an emergency appointment for my jaw this January and got booked in really quickly and saw Shree, the new dentist, which was so convenient as she specialises in jaws and aches. Shree did a whole thorough assessment of my jaw, X-rays etc. gave me some exercises, and sorted me out with some really good retainers plus a temporary one to see me through until they were ready. I’m now completely pain free after following her instructions and I couldn’t be happier! The whole team are amazing and all very positive and gentle, which is great for people who maybe aren’t so confident going to the dentist. Thanks Shree and the team!
I called the other day to see if I could book in an emergency appointment. They were very kind and gave me a spot the next day to be seen. The staff were lovely and comforting knowing I was nervous, and they did an excellent professional job to help the situation I was in. They also gave me in depth information about what was happening and aftercare which is really helpful and gave me reassurance. They do seem very booked up and I wouldn’t take my example as normal. After explaining my situation to the staff, they squeezed me in last minute to genuinely help me. So be prepared to wait if your condition isn’t serious.
Everyone at Smiles Ahead has been so amazing. I had to go in as an emergency patient and they got a slot for me that morning. I had a panicky episode on my first visit but I was given the right support to get me ready for my next visit and tooth extraction. That first evening, I had a call just to check I was doing okay which was greatly appreciated. When I then went back for the extraction, everyone was so reassuring and patient with me, explaining each step and putting soothing music on. I sat in the waiting area afterwards while they kept an eye on me because I was very shaky, and they checked I would be okay getting home. Appointments have been on time, staff have all been friendly and very understanding of how anxious I have been. They couldn’t have done more to make me feel at ease. Highly recommend. I will always come back here now.
