14th April 2026

Great support team and a fabulous hygienist who I visit every 3 months.My concern regarding recommending it to others is in your pricing.I feel to put up prices again for the patient to pay for your refurbishment is frankly insulting. To suggest changes were for the patient are ridiculous! They were for your staff and your business should have paid.I was seriously unimpressed by the price hike- if it was not that I so appreciative of the care of Christine Lacey I certainly lt would have reconsidered my options

13th April 2026

Everyone was respectful and welcoming. The air flow treatment was explained in full to me and I was given the option to decline. Sharon explained the whole process before and during treatment. I found this much better than the water treatment and will defiantly continue to have this. I usually have sensitive teeth for a few days following the water treatment, I have not had this and was delighted with how my teeth look following the air treatment.
