I have recently left the practice for an NHS place elsewhere. This is no reflection on the quality of the (substantial)work done by Bhavika and Ketan,which was friendly,professional,on budget,painless and so far as I can judge,high quality. The staff are also friendly,professional and efficient.
W.Ross

We received a very warm welcome when we arrived today,both by the smiling receptionist and Bhavika. I was only having a checkup but it was very comfortable and I was shown the x rays of my tooth and gums, all explained. It's nice to feel that a proper case is being taken. This followed by a painless and pleasant appointment with the hygienist.Another caring and pleasant member of the team. Thank you all!!

I have had Enlighten Teeth Whitening Treatment done with Bhavika in December. The whole experience was fabulous. Very easy and Bhavika was excellent at explaining the process before I had it done all. The process itself was very straightforward and I am really delighted with the results. I had no pain or sensitivity to the whitening gel used. I would highly recommend a tooth whitening regime to anyone thinking about having it done. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!
