To our lovely patients and friends

We were very pleasantly surprised yesterday by the Prime Minister's declaration that dentists can re-open from 8th June. This is really wonderful news and we are very excited to be able to see you at our practice again. We understand how difficult this time has been for many patients throughout the country who have been experiencing dental pain and discomfort and for those who have had to postpone routine treatment required to maintain their oral health.

We have been working hard over recent weeks to develop new protocols and systems to ensure we are 'COVID SECURE' for when you return to see us at the practice. We are currently waiting for some final clarification from our regulators which we hope to have next week. Certain aspects of your visit to us at the practice will be different - all changes are being made with the aim of keeping you safe by maintaining social distancing, minimising contact and limiting travel, whilst still providing you with a pleasant and comfortable treatment experience. We've put together a short film to show you what to expect when you next attend the practice and you can view this here:

We will initially prioritise emergency cases, those who have developed dental problems during this period of closure. If you have informed us of a dental problem then rest assured you are already on the priority list. If you have not yet done so then please let us know if you believe you need to be included in the priority list. We are aiming to deal with all urgent cases within our first two weeks of opening so that everyone else can start coming back for normal appointments from our third week onwards.

We would like to thank all of our patients for their patience and understanding over the last 10 weeks. We have received many kind and uplifting messages of support and we appreciate them all very much. We wish you and your loved ones ongoing good health and well being and we are very much looking forward to seeing you again soon.

With very best wishes Claudine and all the team

    "I was a very anxious patient prior to being treated by Kasia, she is wonderful with nervous patients - she listened to my fears, always explained everything that she was going to do and made sure that I was as comfortable as I could be before treatment. Since being treated by Kasia, visits to the dentist no longer fill me with fear!"

  • "I have just completed a number of appointments to enable me to have new dentures. Throughout this treatment, care was in the forefront and everything was carefully explained. Claudine and all her staff were fantastic and the aftercare has been exemplary. I only wish Claudine and her team had been around years ago as I might not have needed dentures at all"

  • I was a very anxious patient prior to being treated by Kasia, having had some bad experiences with other dentists and had therefore been reluctant to visit the dentist for some time. Kasia is wonderful with nervous patients - she listened to my fears, always explained everything that she was going to do and made sure that I was as comfortable as I could be before treatment.

  • I cannot be described as an easy patient, for some reason fear gripped me at the thought of “The Dentist”. That is, until I was lucky enough to be looked after by Kasia Nanowska.

  • "I am always nervous about moving to a new dentist, but this is one move I am really glad I made. The practice scores ten on almost every count. Its friendly, welcoming & feels more like a hotel than a dentist. The surgery facilities are excellent & I always feel that I am getting the very best of treatment. In particular I find Claudine one of the gentlest dentists I have ever come across. She patiently explains all aspects of the treatment & then delivers it painlessly. I could not recommend them enough.-MB

  • "Thanks for such a great job on Friday. (Claudine) prepared me for subsequent aches and pains but I have had none of it. Which either shows I have no sense and no feeling, or that she is a great dentist. I think the latter! Thanks so much-CG
