Went to get my braces fitted here when I attended university. Costin and Pam were amazing at answering all my questions regarding the process. due to having to move to wales mid way through treatment they were incredibly good with helping with appointment times. I was informed in each session what movements were being made with my teeth and adjustments were made accordingly. Could not have picked a better dentist for this treatment. 10/10 would recommend and thank you both for the wonderful service

Costin and Pamela took great care of me over the duration of my orthodontic treatment - I had fixed braces for a bit over two years. I am very happy with the result, what a difference straight teeth can make! The service provided was highly professional, always warm, and friendly. When I had any questions, Costin explained everything well and put me on ease. They are a great, knowledgeable and experienced team, that puts a patient at the heart of everything they do!

I would highly recommend Costin & Pamela. Not only have they corrected previous treatment from another dentist but have exceeded any expectations I had to getting my teeth straight and having the smile I'd always wanted. They've been so great at providing a great and safe service throughout the pandemic.

I have been a patient since 2016 and have always been a nervous dental patient. I am so glad I found this practice because Pam and Costin have made root canal treatment and an extraction over this time a completely pain free and bearable experience. Always warm, welcoming and caring. Thank You.

If I would have a chance to give more than 5 stars I would. First time in my life I found dentistry, where I felt comfortable and not worried about pain or anything else. Costin and Pamela are amazing, so friendly and professional. One word to describe the clinic - PERFECTION.
