Dr Aquilina is an amazing dentist, not just in his clinical practice, but also his manner, and dedication to explain the procedure simply and patiently. I have nothing but good things to say about Rochester Lodge Dental Practice.

Rochester Lodge has been my dental practice for many years and has always provided excellent service. Recently I have had my teeth straightened using the Invisalign process and I am truly delighted with the results. Dr Ali was excellent and guided me through the process and undertook all the treatments and it was quick, simple and very, very effective. I could not recommend both Dr Ali and Invisalign more highly, I wish I had done the treatment years ago!

I was referred to Dr James Aquilina for a root canal treatment this year, and I am so glad that I was. From the first consultation to the treatment itself Dr James Aquilina was reassuring with his expertise and professionalism. I had the treatment done this week and I am thrilled with the results. I am no longer in pain from a bad tooth even though I was told I may experience some after the treatment. I haven't felt a thing- not during or post treatment! Just to compare, I've had a root canal experience before with another practice and it was far from pleasant, that painful experience resulted

Great dentist and hygienist. I trust them with my teeth - they provide proper care and dont always find something wrong. The reception staff are also very helpful and professional.

Having had some dubious dentistry when younger, I have never been anything but truly delighted with both the treatment received and the care taken over the years I have attended this practice. Every patient is made to feel valued, from the lovely reception staff to the dentists themselves. Emergency treatment is outstanding, and very much appreciated too! Going to the dentist is not the scary experience it used to be. The excellent Covid-secure measures have meant that they can continue to treat everyone with whatever treatment is required. Thanks to all concerned.

Not sure about reviewing a dentist - I don't go there for pleasure! However, they have been looking after my teeth for 20 years or more so given the state they were in, they've done me pretty well, at a cost! However, a friendly staff - dentists, hygienists and reception - usually make the visit not too traumatic!
