Can't thank this practice enough for all their help. I don't post reviews very often, so when I do, it's because an impression has been left! Dr Ali saw me at short notice to help fix a broken tooth. The nurse (I think her name was Danni) was so helpful and kind, as were the rest of the team. Thank you for being there for me in my hour of need (the same day i asked for an appointment!)

I have been using this dentist for well over a decade and can honestly say my teeth would be in a far worse situation if wasn’t for the Gentle Dental practice.
My most recent visit was for a filling .. barely felt the injection!
I would highly recommend this dentist to anyone, but especially if you’re teeth require a high level of care like mine.

This place was recommended to me by family and for a nervous patient the best experience. The reception welcome is cheerful and friendly, beautifully modern area with hot drinks and water on offer.
I needed implants, crowns and bridges followed by whitening, so lots of appointments. My dentist Mr Ali Rafai was superb from start to finish, so professional and personable. Throughout the whole process I was cared for wonderfully plus lots of laughs along the way. The constant care during appointments was very comforting, no rushing, and I knew I my needs were Mr Rafai's priority. Plus check up call

Fantastic experience with Ali. It took 18 months including bone grafting, removing and replacing failed dental implants, invisaline for my bottom teeth which were all over the place and some veneers but now I'm delighted with the outcome.
Ali was always very clear about how this wasn't an overnight solution in an honest and forthright manner which gave me confidence that he would deliver results.
I was offered several overnight solutions from other dentists locally at a fraction of the cost but when I see how much effort and detail that went into my plan, I know i made the right choice.

Absolutely amazing experience, I had teeth whitening and composite bonding completed with Dr Marshall who gave me the smile I’ve always wanted. The whole process ran smoothly and quickly ensuring I had my new smile as soon as possible. I 100% recommend Gentle Dental if you are looking for a reliable dentist and an amazing smile!

Dr Ali was amazing I went to 6 dentist before visiting Gentle Dental and he was the first person to keep me in the seat. Hard to say a visit to the dentist is relaxing, but I now look forward to keeping my teeth in great condition. Thank you so much to all the team for their support in helping me get over my fear of dental work. Adam Sherwood

Dr Rifai has treated me over the past few years with consummate skill and care. We discussed what cosmetic improvements could be made to my teeth, I wanted a natural look, rather than the 'Trump' look. Dr Rifai was empathetic and took a fair amount of time explaining the various options and their benefits and costs. He then sent me a very detailed… treatment plan, containing the options and costs set out clearly and concisely. I felt under no pressure whatsoever whilst I was deciding what I wanted to do. I opted for Invisalign treatment, which I found very easy to use, bleaching and then
