Patient feedback

Of our patients surveyed would recommend our practice to others.
-
Of our patients surveyed say ‘I feel involved in all decisions about my care.’
“I have been a patient at the Practice since 1982 when I was welcomed there and remained with the same dentist until he retired. The enthusiasm and commitment to treat me as an anxious patient has remained at the Practice and is clearly evident in all colleagues who have greeted and looked after me since. I would recommend this Practice to anyone.”
“I am terrified of the dentist thanks to my previous experiences at another practice, but Avis is incredibly patient with me. I still get very shaky but Avid and all the staff I have encountered have made my experience a lot better. They make me feel like every bit of treatment I have received is an achievement and I can’t thank them all enough.”
No, orthodontics for adults is becoming more and more common. We can talk through your options with you.
We do understand that some people really struggle with dental treatment. But we have lots of ways to help put you at ease. Please just tell us how you feel and what worries you, and then we can work together to decide on the right approach.
Generally we recommend twice yearly check-ups every six months. However, this varies on a case by case basis. Your Bupa Dental Care dentist will talk to you about when and how often we need to see you.
Fillings repair small holes in your tooth enamel. If they aren’t filled, the decay will deepen. You’ll start to feel pain, and you could end up needing root canal treatment, which is much more significant and costs more. So although you might not feel pain right now, it’s best to repair these holes as soon as possible.
