We've always received excellent care at this practice. Every dentist we have seen, including Sonam and Ria, has always been extremely thorough, reassuring, and they explain everything clearly. I have learnt a lot more about my teeth from coming to this practice than any other practice I have been to. I was really impressed with how quick and comfortable my recent fillings were. The reception staff are also friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Very happy with the service I received, waiting wasn’t long, the Hygienist was approachable as was her assistant. She was excellent cleaning my teeth and when I asked a question she was very knowledgeable with her answers.I then saw my dentist who again gave me advice and told me what she was doing and why. An excellent service.The receptionists were very helpful and accommodating with my appointments and also sending texts and phone to ensure I won’t forget my appointment.Excellent

As someone that gets a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist I cannot recommend Desford Dental Care highly enough. They took every care to make sure that I was as comfortable as possible and made sure I understood everything they were doing and why they were doing it. Hanish and the team went above and beyond to ensure i felt supported and cared for. The best experience I’ve had at a dentist.

My son recommended Desford Dental Care to me as I have a fear of dentists especially injections after having several reactions to them but Hanish immediately put me at ease & I was fine. On several of my visits I have met a lovely assistant named Jess who also put me at ease. Hanish passed me onto Shilpa for reconstruction of my front teeth, on my first appointment for discussion of treatment I was immediately put at ease as I was on the 2 treatments of 2 hours each appointment & I was also pleased on each visit to have Jess as the assistant & on each occasion the care & professionalism of both Dentists & assistant was first class.Also all the reception girls are very welcoming, caring & polite.I would not hesitate to to recommend Desford Dental Care to anyone.Thank you all so much

Very well run Dental practice. Strong regular communication and reminders circulated which is a good sign of being very organised. Had two interventions this week from Dr. Sonam THAKKAR, both went very well. Dr Thakkar was explaining the procedure every step of the way and all went superbly well. Also thanks to the assistants who also contribute to the good experience.

Personally I do not suffer from 'Dentist nerves' as some do however the entire team always make you feel so welcome, as if more of a friend rather than a patient, nervous or otherwise.Yesterday I had to have a little impromptu 'drill & refill' with the lovely.....and so much fun - Dr. Sonam THAKKAR and her equally charming colleague. Throughout the procedure they both put me at ease (despite feeling absolutely fine) and explained everything they were going to do / as they did it.Excellent 'pain free' work in a professional environment was completed as usual..........with a some banter along the way!Such a refreshing change to come to a surgery where there is no stuffiness whatsoever, something I am sure would only add to any nervous patients inner fears.5 stars

I had some rather exceptional treatment today carried out by the wonderfully talented & lovely Shilpa Chotai who is a Bioclear trained dentist at the Desford Dental Care practice. The treatment is very specialised & requires a great deal of skill & patience. Hopefully it was going to be 2, fairly straightforward, white, Bioclear fillings, however, when she removed the old filling, a large amount of tooth came away causing a great deal more work & problem's than anticipated for her. Nevertheless, she grasped the situation with both hands & of course expertise & after a lot of patience & perseverance, I now have 2 beautiful teeth to be proud of! I'm no dentist but i can appreciate the artistry that Shilpa created. I have a follow-up appointment booked in a couple of weeks to report how things have been & I received a lovely phone call this afternoon asking how I was after my treatment earlier today & asking me just to be mindful of certain things. I cannot thank the team enough at the Desford Dental Care & if anyone is looking for a more 'bespoke' white filling, then Bioclear & Shilpa could be the answer!

My wife suffered toothache over a weekend. We are both patients at Desford, so at 8.30am Monday I telephoned for an appointment, although busy that day the Receptionist managed to fit her in at 9.40am. The tooth requires an extraction carried out swiftly after a thorough explanation from the charming lady dentist, and an hour later we're home. Although on medication my wife suffered Minimal bleeding and absolutely no pain. Our very grateful thanks to all at Desford - the highest recommendation from us both, they are superb

I have to say like many my dread at going to the Dentists is tremendous , Partly due to the treatment and experiences in the past. But at this practice right from the beginning all the staff put you at ease.

I was very nervous when I first started going to the dentist, but I went because I did not want my son to grow up with the same fear. Desford dental care was brilliant and I cannot recommend them enough. They made me feel welcome and was very patient with me, from reception to treatments. Shilpa explained everything and advised me what to expect before any treatment was done. I have now been going 12 years and would not go anywhere else.

Due to the lack of NHS patient capacity i have received all the dental work required at this practise for the last five years. Recently following an abscess in a front tooth that required removal. After a course of antibiotics came the day for extraction. After the necessary injection, Hanish removed the tooth painlessly. Not only that but as the feeling returned I expected , at the very least, to require some paracetamol. Not at all !!! No bruising, no pain, no discomfort at all just waiting painlessly for the wound to heal. Great treatment by a great dentist and pleasant staff.

The hygienist and assistant were really kind and the procedure was no problem, talking all the way through thank you both.... Hanish is very friendly and smiley. He checked not only my teeth but my mouth, gums and tongue which is important. He also gave me advice on looking after my teeth.Thank you Desford Dental Care Hilary Flint

Desford Dental care has helped get my teeth and oral hygiene back on track and I am looking forward to a healthier dental future. Treatment plans are detailed and costed before starting. I felt fully appraised of what work I required and why it needed to be done. All the reception staff are polite and professional. Ria and Sonam are a credit to this dental practice too. Thank you.

He and Nurse Beth answered all of my questions thoroughly and both had lovely bedside manners. My treatment was quickly performed and I suffered no pain whatsoever. I didn't even feel the injection to numb my gum! As usual, a first class service 💯. Thanks to everyone at Desford Dental Care.

I cannot believe that I had 2 roots removed today, my fear of the dentist has left my teeth needing some attention (a lot). I have gone from having to have someone drive me for just a check up, having a scale and polish to X-rays on another session. I can’t believe I wasn’t shaking or crying today, knowing I was having roots removed. I did it, no crying, drove myself and came out smiling. Thank you Desford Dentist for helping be to begin to overcome my fears and I will be a regular patient. Carole

Title: A Dentist who Truly Cares: Highly Recommend for Nervous PatientsRating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I recently had an incredibly positive experience with a dentist who specializes in treating nervous patients. After being in so much pain the worse i have ever experienced and being scared to go due to childhood trauma, From the moment I walked into their clinic, I felt a sense of genuine care and compassion that immediately put me at ease. I cannot recommend this dentist highly enough for anyone who experiences dental anxiety or nervousness.One of the most remarkable aspects of this dentist's practice is their ability to create a comfortable atmosphere. The waiting area was relaxing, and the staff members were understanding and empathetic. They took the time to listen to my concerns and addressed them with patience and kindness. This sense of understanding continued throughout the entire appointment, making me feel completely supported and valued as a patient.The dentist himself was exceptional. Not only did he possess an impressive depth of knowledge and expertise, but he also had an extraordinary ability to explain procedures and treatments in a clear and concise manner. He took the time to answer all my questions and ensured I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way.More importantly, this dentist didn't rush through the appointment, nor did they dismiss my fears or anxieties. They actively worked to establish trust and provided strategies to manage my nervousness, such as regular check-ins and gentle numbing techniques. Their patience and gentle approach truly made a significant difference in my overall experience.During the treatment itself, the dentist's gentle touch and calming demeanor helped alleviate any discomfort or anxiety I had been feeling. They continuously checked in with me, providing reassurance and making sure I was as comfortable as possible. Their dedication to patient comfort was evident in every aspect of their practice, to their consideration for any potential pain during procedures.Even after the appointment, and tooth extraction which i felt absolutely no pain what so ever , the dentist followed up with me to ensure I was still feeling comfortable and happy with the outcome. This level of care and attention made me feel valued as a patient, reinforcing my confidence in their ability to deliver exceptional dental services.Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this dentist to anyone who experiences dental anxiety or nervousness. Their genuine care, understanding, and unmatched skill in treating nervous patients make them an outstanding practitioner. Thanks to their expertise and compassionate approach, I now no longer fear dental visits and feel empowered to prioritize my oral health, with desford dental practice.If you're seeking a dentist who will provide unparalleled care for nervous patients, look no further. This dentist truly goes above and beyond, ensuring a positive, stress-free experience that will leave you smiling.Thank you to this exceptional dentist and their team for restoring my faith in dental care and making a lifelong impact on my oral health journey.Angela murphy .tooth extraction today after waiting 10 mins at very most .Once again team thankyou 🙏

The best dental practice I have ever visited. *****Five stars is not enough! Being an extremely nervous patient due to previous bad dental experiences it was such a relief to find a dental practice where all of the staff I have come into contact with have listened to me and understood my fears. Their advice, guidance and understanding in each appointment has been a very welcome change. I have total confidence in this dental practice and no longer have the anxiety I had about visiting the dentist as I know I am in safe hands. I have total trust in them especially as they involve you in making decisions about what treatment you need and what your options are. With special thanks to all of the receptionists, Dr Hanish Chotai and Mrs Nakshi Mehta.

I joined Desford Dentists more than ten years ago after another dentist carried out excessive cosmetic work on my, then, perfectly healthy teeth and convinced me to have veneers that I could have avoided.Since I've been with Hanish he has repaired and corrected the damage done to my teeth and, using superior materials to previously, has given me a smile that everybody comments on.His friendly and caring nature along with his vast knowledge of dentistry has led me to recommend his practice to numerous friends and family.All of the staff from the reception are so polite and helpful and nothing seems too much trouble.Recently Laura (trained by Hanish) carried out a root canal procedure on myself and I hardly felt a thing. Hanush himself frequently looked in to check on progress and he gave her work the thumbs up after checking my x-ray results.This is the new benchmark for how all dentist practices should operate and they deserve all the credit and recognition they receive 👏 🙌

Im someone who gets really nervous at the dentist but I was greeted with Ria who was so lovely and wonderful from the very start! She made me feel at ease and talked me through every process! I did have to have quiet a lot of treatment which meant a lot of needles which I’m not a big fan of, but she made me feel very comfortable and I might even say I don’t mind them anymore! I can’t thank her enough for helping me get my teeth back healthy! I Would also like to mention how lovely the reception staff are as well! Always a smile on there faces and incredibly helpful! Definitely the best dentist I’ve been to! 🙌🏻

I’ve been a patient at Desford Dental Care for many years now, initially as a very nervous patient. Dr Hanish is clearly a very special Dentist who treats his patients with personal care, not often seen in todays constantly challenging society. For this care, I am eternally grateful Hanish, thankyou.Just before Christmas 2022, I visited the practice with a problem and was seen by Laura, and the personal care and approach shown by Hanish, seems to be a distinguishing quality shared by other dentists. The care I received from Laura before Christmas was exemplary and the care and empathy I received today on returning for an extraction was similarly extremely caring and comforting.It’s unusual to find a team that share a similar approach to patient care and well-being.A personal shout out to Laura, for putting me at ease today, for talking to me and explaining, for the follow up call later in the day, and just for taking the time to care, thankyou. Laura, you are an absolute credit to the Desford Dental Care team, Thank you, and all the very best for your future career Laura

I got an emergency appointment on the day I contacted the practice. The extraction a day later wasn’t easy but Ria persevered and removed all the roots. She took time from her lunch to do this as they were very short staffed due to illness. Both Ria and Andrea were professional and calm and even though clearly pushed for time they gave me all the time I needed to get settled and calm me down. Much appreciated and a credit to the practice.

I have recently used The Enlighten Evolution3 teeth whitening product as recommended by Mr Pabari at Desford and I couldn’t be happier with the results.Using the product nightly takes a bit of commitment and your gums can become quite sensitive. However, it is only a few weeks and the sensitivity quickly disappears once finished and there’s always the option to stop for a day or more if you need to.In a short time my teeth have gone several shades lighter making my smile look bright and healthy, it’s such a difference. I notice it every time I look in the mirror. It’s a massive confidence boost and I’m absolutely delighted with it. I’ll definitely keep it topped up.I was given great instructions on how to use it and it’s easier than you maybe think it will be. Would definitely recommend.

Shiv is absolutely amazing. Best dentist I’ve seen. Had a porcelain onlay fitted and he’s done an amazing job.

I am nervous to say the least about visiting the Dentist. I had an appointment with Shilpa this morning for several fillings, She is amazing and so kind patient and reassuring. I would definitely recommend this practice. It has given me the confidence to carry on with the treatment I need thanks to Shilpa and all the staff

Staff are always friendly and welcoming. They all have dealt brilliantly with the changes the pandemic requested of them. Special thanks to Ria who always calms me down, knowing what sort of panic I suffer having to go to the dentist. I also love how there's always a friendly chat with my little daughter to out her ease. Never any pressure, always fun.

Not very often we can say we enjoyed our visit to the dentist but I very happy with the service I have received. Whether it be for a routine dental check-up, treatment or a visit to the Hygienist. Staff are friendly, polite and helpful.Special mention for my Dentist, Ria, genuinely interested in her patients and very thorough with her treatment and advice.

Met the new dentist Shivam, very nice man, hope he stays as he listens. The nurse Ellie-Rae, was very attentive. All the reception staff are super friendly, especially Kay.

I have been using this dentist for many years and have always found them to be friendly, helpful and professional. Receptionists go above and beyond to help and the staff including the dentists and hygienists are excellent at their job, putting you at ease and always explaining what treatment you require.Excellent covid measures in place.

I have been coming to Desford Dental Care for many years now and have always found the whole team to be friendly, professional, and very helpful, from the ladies on reception to the dental nurses and of course the dentist themselves. I have on many occasions had to call on their services as an emergency case and found them to be very accommodating, I cannot recommend this practice highly enough and I wish them all a happy Christmas, keep up the good work and no doubt I’ll be seeing them all again in 2022.

I've recently completed a course of Invisalign and it's been incredible. Ria explained everything very clearly to me, and was always at the end of the phone in case I had any stupid questions or forget anything (which happened quite a bit). She was very flexible with my more awkward needs for appointments and made the whole process easier than I thought it was going to be. Thanks for the great service Ria!

I was first introduced to Ria at Desford Dental Care following a friends recommendation. Due to a terrible fear of dentists and poor treatment in the past I had not had my teeth looked at for a very long time. The last 6 months Ria has fixed many problems but also calmed my fears at every appointment and the progress has been amazing. I couldn't give a higher recommendation.

Great Professional Service and highly recommended. Best and quietest part of a hefty workday recently was getting a root canal finished. Nearly fell asleep. Dr. Ria also recommended a Dental Hospital appointment for a none dental related item. Thanks :-) ...

Great service all round. Was given a few different options for what i needed and honest advice for which would be best. Great care from Yusuf and nurse Lauren, first injection i have not been able to feel. Very impressed. And many thanks to receptionist Kay, Always very professional and friendly and patient finding me a suitable appointment. I Still travel over an hour to this practice after moving away, as found local dentists provide less care and seem more concerned with making money.

Fantastic dental practice. Great staff, and lovely surgery. I have spent the last four weeks transforming my smile with the help of Shilpa. She has done biocelar composites on four of my teeth and the results are amazing. I’ve also had a new wire retainer and plastic retainer and nothing has been a problem. A great dentist with a lovely welcoming atmosphere and very COVID safe, all measures have been taken to avoid you having contact with any other patient and you feel totally at ease, great organisation from you all. Thanks to shilpa and all the staff at Desford Dental :)
