Disappointed as had really heard good reports about johnny nd had wanted to see him. Was told by a rather abrupt receptionist he was taking on no new clients which is fine but if I rang Monday for an emergency appointment at 8.30 they could do something. Been in agony all weekend then rang dot on 8.30 and nobody even bothered to get back to me and I left a message.i also tried ringing again and no answer. Managed to get in somewhere else but you really need to check your messages! Very disappointed

I have had Invisalign, teeth whitening and bonding with Church Street Dental Practice. I was so unhappy with my teeth and visited many dentists to try and find the right fit. I knew immediately when I had a consultation with Anita that I wanted to have my treatment done there. The staff are all so lovely and accommodating. Anita listened to all of my concerns and made every effort to fulfil my vision (which she definitely did).

I then had my bonding done with Sunny and I absolutely love them, they're everything I could of imagined and more! I recommend this dentist to absolutely everyone, they have just been so amazing! Linzi is also a huge credit to the surgery, she is always so happy and chatty which is a lovely thing to first walk into! I don't think I could go anywhere else now

Excellent service at Church Street Dental practice, made you feel extremely comfortable and informed throughout. Very friendly and professional service. I saw the staff members the following day in town and was also talking to them for a while! 100% the best in this area.

Visited Church street dental practice after chipping three of my front teeth. Anita and the team were lovely booking me in straight away. Jonny the dentist who carried out the work was excellent, really pleased with the results! Couldn't fault the service from start to finish, wouldn't go anywhere else now!
