We firmly believe that one of our most important jobs is to arm you with everything you need to know in order to make informed decisions about your oral health. If you have any questions at all, please ask. Ask your dentist. Ask your hygienist. Ask the nurses and the receptionists. Call us, email us, write to us.
The most important thing to remember is that we're here for you and if you are in pain or concerned about a problem with your teeth or gums, the best thing to do is to call us. Often the dentist on call will be able to advise you on the phone and there will always be someone available to see you. Whatever the dental emergency, the best course of action is to try and calm your child and call us as soon as possible.
Dental implants are the best like-for-like way to replace missing teeth, both from an aesthetic and a practical point of view. They enable you to chew, speak and smile with confidence and help you maintain your appearance by stopping bone loss. Unlike a traditional bridge, they will not affect healthy adjacent teeth, and also pose a lower risk for cavities as they are easier to clean.
Keeping your mouth healthy and having a knock-out smile can take years off you. But when you've worked hard to achieve this it can be frustrating if frown lines, crows' feet and sagging cheeks and jowls distract from the result. Suitable for both men and women, non-permanent injectable treatments have been successfully used for decades, to soften wrinkles and plump skin.
As most adults will suffer from gum disease at some point during their lives, regular visits to the hygienist should be part of your oral health routine. If plaque is left on teeth it can turn hard (known as tartar) and be impossible to remove at home. This is the primary cause of gum disease, so being able to control plaque build up is crucial to keeping gums healthy.

I had stayed with my previous dentist for over 40 years, travelling right across London as I considered him a particularly good practitioner. When he retired last year I worried about finding a worthy replacement. I need not have worried. More by chance – it is the closest practice for me here in Greenwich – I came across Merivale and Kulvinder Sokhal. Kulvinder has shown me what it means to be a truly exceptional dentist. Over the past four months I have had a crown replaced, a tooth extracted and an implant fitted. As my teeth have unusually long roots it seemed initially a rather daunting

By far the best dental practice I have experienced. The whole team is professional and warm, whilst taking excellent Covid safety measures. Haj was lovely, helped resolve some dental concerns I had pending for a while...she has a unique way to break down the facts, suggest options and also gave me refreshing advice for dental hygiene. For once, I feel I want to return to the dentist for regular check ups rather than wait for a concern to rise first. These appointments used to bring me so much anxiety but Haj, Lesley and the team have really helped turn this around.

As someone who previously was highly nervous of sitting in a dentist’s chair, I cannot recommended Merivale highly enough. The staff are consistently welcoming, friendly and reassuring. The practice itself is outstandingly well presented, clean and tidy. I feel confident every time I attend for an appointment that I am in competent, respectful and professional hands.

Excellent aesthetics today from Haj, who works quickly and methodically, listening to what I want and advising me accordingly. As always she does a great job and as always I am very happy with the end result. The staff are always helpful and polite, the premises are so covid covered and clean. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my dental and aesthetics.

Following the retirement of my dentist in Sevenoaks, I spent a long and miserable time trying to find a good dentist. Fortunately I eventually found Dr Matthew Nolan in Greenwich. He is a dentist of the highest competency, integrity and professionalism. He carried out a root canal treatment for me, a filling and fitted a crown. His work is beyond excellent and it is absolutely brilliant to know that I now have such an excellent dentist to rely upon. Dr Matthew Nolan also has a wonderful, caring attitude. I cannot recommend Dr Nolan highly enough and I am extremely grateful for his excellent work

I am so happy to have found a great dentist surgery so close to home. Haj was very kind and professional and I felt in very safe and competent hands. The team we friendly, helpful and have a very robust covid safety plan in place. Haj gave me some great dental hygiene tips. I wouldn’t go anywhere else now. I’m sure the other dentists here are just as good but I will be asking for Haj!

Would highly recommend. Very Professional in every aspect, staff, surgery and offices. Always welcoming with a very personal touch. Non hurried service, where you feel like you are informed and making decision based on facts and given clear options. Always found the staff to be very friendly staff too. Well done to the team and management. Leading by example, on how businesses should support and assist customers.
