I’ve been going to Desford dental Care for 16 years and was/am an anxious patient. Hanish and Shilpa over the years have been wonderful in helping my anxiety. I’ve now had a root filling with Laura and she was so very good and very reassuring and patient. Can not praise her highly enough.

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 👏 🙌

I had joined the practice at the beginning of the year, knowing that my teeth was in pretty bad shape. 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 had composite bonding done by Ria at this practice, she was very skilled, friendly, welcoming, and helped the process go even more smoothly. I’m very pleased with my results and I recommend seeing her. Also a special thanks to Eleanor for her assistance and taking care of me.

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.

Have been with this dental practice since it opened. Great, friendly staff. The receptionists are always welcoming and if you ever feel nervous or unsure the dentists are always calm and reassuring. Had an injection to numb for a filling today. I was nervous about it and Hanish made me feel relaxed. Also, very grateful for their work throughout covid as many of my friends at other dental practices could not get face to face appointments and were struck off. This dental practice were there when I needed them.

Recently registered with Desford Dental Care after using a practice in a neighbourhood village for many years.The staff and dentists are professional, friendly, and extremely helpful.Their tips and advice on oral hygiene and technique was great (and something that previous practices that I have used never gave). Highly recommend.

I have been a patient at this practice for many years and have always received an excellent service from Ria and her team. I have recently undergone ‘Invisalign’ treatment to straighten and whiten my teeth and am very pleased with the final results. Thanks to Ria for her calm and efficient manner and for keeping me informed at every step of the way.

I had my teeth whitened at the surgery with the Enlighten system and am really pleased with the results. The process was simple, comfortable and I didn't experience any sensitivity.I have always been nervous about visiting the dentist and avoided seeing a dentist for several years before registering at Desford. Hanish and his team have always put me at ease during my appointments and I have recommended the surgery to my friends and neighbours.

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.

I have been using this dentist for many years and have always found them to be friendly, helpful and professional.

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 :)
