I've had a fear of dentists all my life. Ive tried several in the local area who were ok but Hayley and the team have been GAME CHANGING for me. Both in terms of the service, making me feel comfortable and most importantly in terms of not worrying about painful operations etc
They're kind and understanding approach has meant I'm finally able to smile with confidence. I've already recommend several friends and family and will continue to shout about this service for months to come.

I cant say enough good things about the team at The Wingham Dental Practice. The minute you arrive until you walk out the door, you will be treated with with kindness, professionalism and great care. Their general maintenance program is thorough and flexible to your needs but importantly there is no other dentist that comes close to them when it comes to their emergency response. If you need them they will be there for you. Unlike a lot of dentists, they will treat you as an individual and fully appreciate the pain that you might be in. If you are a little frightened of dental procedures, dont

I was in desperate need of an emergency dentist today and Ellie on reception could not have been more friendly and helpful in my hour of need. I was lucky to be offered an appointment and being fearful of visiting the dentist was full of anxiety. On arriving at the surgery my anxieties where alleviated by simply the most amazing dentist I have ever met. Karin was very calming and went above and beyond to ensure I left the surgery pain free and with a plan moving forward. Absolutely outstanding service and I could not recommend them any higher. Thank you!

Just returned from my half yearly review. Dentist a model of kindness and care, explaining things with patience. Very helpful. Perhaps that is why we've been there for 30 odd years!

I take my two 8 year old there. The staff and dentists are exceptionally friendly, helpful, approachable and accommodating. Its always key who you get for a first dentists and sets such of the tone for how you feel about dentists thereon, and I couldn't be happier.
