Leagrave Dental Sedation Clinic: Reviews
Fantastic experience: As a nervous patient, this dental surgery is the ideal atmosphere to be in. Dr Santhia is very calming and reassuring. Highly recommended and totally worth it.
Dear Cheryl, thank you very much for your wonderful review, we’re happy to hear that you would recommend us highly! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: I’ve had six visits to this clinic over the past two months, and every single experience has been exceptional. I initially came in for an Invisalign consultation with Dr. Prem, who took the time to thoroughly explain the entire process in a way that was easy to understand and reassuring. Although I couldn’t begin the Invisalign treatment right away due to some dental issues, both Dr. Prem and Dr. Santhia handled everything with such care and professionalism. They explained every procedure clearly so I always felt informed and at ease. One of the highlights was a root canal done by Dr. Prem, it went far smoother than I ever expected. I experienced zero pain or discomfort after the procedure, which honestly felt like a miracle. The entire team, from the dental assistants to the receptionists, has been incredibly warm and welcoming at every visit. It genuinely doesn’t feel like a typical dentist’s office. I no longer dread going to the dentist and will definitely be keeping up with regular visits, this time, willingly!

Fantastic experience: I was referred to the LDSC recently for a surgical extraction with gas and air and cannot fault the experience (other than I didn’t think the gas and air was as strong as when I was a child!). I opted for this over the intravenous sedation as I did not like the thought of having no memory of the day. I have suffered no pain at all and am amazed. All the staff I encountered were very friendly and helpful and I would definitely recommend.
Dear Amanda, thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear that the gas and air option worked well for you! Kind regards

Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked into reception until the moment I walked out the experience was above and beyond . The Denist was clean and tidy the sedation nurse and her assistant was amazing they explained everything before starting . The banter between them and myself took my mind of everything that was going before I knew there was a little tug , and the tooth was out . They showed me the tooth and explained they scraped out all the infection . Took me to a separate room for after care and explained what I needed to do next . I will recommended this dentist to friends and family .

Dear Saranga, thank you very much for your 5-Star review, and for finding our staff friendly! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: Had a tooth extraction i was dreading it but it went really well I remember them checking which tooth it was and then it was done I was worried the sedation dose wasn't going to knock me out but it did, I had a sedation dose when I had a Colonoscopy and I was wide awake so I thought this might be the same but this must have been a higher dose because I don't remember them taking my tooth out. So overall very happy with the service and most of all pain free so if anyone's going for the same thing I can assure you it will be easy
Dear Mohammed, thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear that your extraction went better than expected! Kind regards

Fantastic experience: After a traumatic experience at another dentist, we were blown away by how kind, patient, and understanding the team was with our very anxious daughter.

Dear Nicola, thank you very much for your lovely review! We’re very happy to hear that your daughter had a stress free experience at our practice. Kind regards
Negative experience: This was a very stressful experience for my 11-year-old daughter. She was told to lie back and they were just going to have a look in her mouth and clean her teeth, She was fully aware that she was having teeth removed so not quite sure why they thought it would be a good idea to lie to her. She was quite upset and told if she didn’t stop crying she would have to go to the hospital to have it done instead
Dear Christy, Thank you very much for your feedback regarding dental treatment for children under inhalation sedation. We provide a very unique service in Bedfordshire where children (and adults) are referred to us if they are too anxious to have treatment done by their dentist. The ideal outcome is to avoid sedation altogether and have the treatment done at the dentist under local anaesthetic, children are only referred where they have been too anxious or uncooperative for treatment under local anaesthesia. As it is not a general anaesthetic, we require cooperation from the children. We find it best to avoid mentioning words such as extraction, pulling out teeth, injection, drilling etc which frightens children even more. We prefer to use terms such as 'clean the tooth' rather than 'drilling', 'medicine' instead of 'injections', etc; this is to prevent an increase in anxiety which increases the likelihood of failure of sedation. Where children do not settle under sedation, we have to then discuss the option of general anaesthesia which can only be done in a hospital; for he parent and child to decide whether to proceed with the sedation or be referred to the hospital. We hope that this explains the reason why we avoid mentioning extractions and discuss the options of referral to hospital. Kind regards

Fantastic experience: The dentist had to extract A LOT of my teeth and I was nervous to say the least. He was charming without being OTT, confident without being arrogant and very, very good at his job! The extractions were done quickly and efficiently and I had no discomfort at all. I was reassured throughout the entire process and have had no problems since. If only all dentists were as good as this guy - I wouldn’t have developed the phobia that led to the loss of my teeth.. The assistant was also lovely and held my hand throughout. I honestly cannot recommend them highly enough

Also no bruising not even in the hand from the cannula although 24hrs later I'm eating liquid food as I have some discomfort that you would expect from the type of procedure.

Fantastic experience: I was referred by my dentist to have my wisdom tooth extracted at LDSC. From the initial phone call from this clinic, firstly from the dentist who was doing the treatment, who was excellent (Christine), and then from the receptionist who booked my appointment, which was in a couple of weeks, I can't praise this clinic enough. I've had my wisdom teeth for the past 32 years so I was a bit apprehensive as to how difficult the extraction would be. I had IV sedation and the whole procedure was painless, and I had stitches too. I was taken to the recovery room where a lovely lady sat in the room for about 20mins or so monitoring everything and everyone who was in there too. Very informative throughout and the information given for aftercare was excellent. I had my procedure done 2 days ago and have followed all the advice, plenty of rest, fluids and soft food. Today I can see swelling appearing so I will be getting the ice packs out. Thank you to all of you for making me feel at ease and for a painless extraction.
Dear Linda, thank you for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear that you had a good experience at our practice and that your treatment with Christine went very well! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: Needed an extraction, had to wait 20 minutes after my time slot, as the previous patient had complications! When seen staff were both helpful and friendly, tooth removed! In the recovery room the nurse was second to none, certainly gave fantastic advice and care! Thank you!
Dear Martin, thank you very much for your review, we’re happy to hear that your extraction went well and that our staff were helpful and friendly! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: My son, 18 and autistic, was terrified before his appointment. Not only was it his first extraction but he had to go somewhere unknown with people unknown. Dr Neeta Patel was amazing, soothing even. She explained everything to him as if she had all the time in the world which I'm sure she did not. All the staff were welcoming and kind, not only to him but also his worried mum. 11/10. Tina.
Dear Tina, thank you very much for your review and the 11/10 rating!! We’re glad to hear that your son had a good experience at our practice! Kind regards

Dear Jazmin, thank you very much for your review, we’re very happy to hear that we were amazing with your daughter! Kind regards
Negative experience: I chose to book with this dental surgery after breaking a tooth and seeing all the great reviews. I was booked in with Dr Santhia Selvaratnan who is the most unreliable health professional I have ever known. From the first appointment till the last, there have been constant cancellations. I had to wait over 7 weeks for treatment due to the repeated cancellations. I stressed that I require this treatment asap as I will be going away but that made no difference. I had paid over £150 upfront for this appointment and the surgery would have been happy to keep my money had I not made attempt to contact them after my holiday. Further to this, when I finally managed to get treatment, the dentist did not explain what she was doing and was pretty rough. I have no fear of dentists but the whole experience was very uncomfortable even for me. Definitely would not recommend this dentist to anyone.
Dear Sofia, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand how frustrating the repeated cancellations must have been, especially given your upcoming travel plans.
Unfortunately, the cancellations were due to medical reasons, as Santhia was seriously unwell and unable to work during that time. We appreciate your patience during a period that was equally challenging for our team, and we sincerely apologise for the disruption this caused.
Regarding the upfront payment, this is taken to secure appointments and ensure time is reserved for each patient. Had you decided not to proceed with treatment, this would have been fully refunded.
We're also sorry to hear that your treatment experience was uncomfortable and didn’t meet your expectations. All of our clinicians aim to provide clear communication and a gentle approach, and we’re sorry this wasn’t your experience on the day. Your feedback has been shared with the team, and we’ll be looking into this further to ensure improvements are made.
We appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention and would be happy to speak with you directly if you'd like to discuss this further.
Kind regards

Dear Fuwad, thank you very much for your 5-Star review! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: My daughter had 4 teeth removed for orthodontic work. She is very anxious, highly phobic of needles and autistic. Hussain and Jes quickly put her at ease. Explained the process, assessed her needs, provided amazing reassurance and worked quickly and effectively in a calming way. The post op team provided wonderful care and information. Overall, an experience we were dreading was positive. I would highly recommend this practice and the amazing staff.

Dear Lengyel, thank you very much for your 5-Star review and for recommending us! Kind regards
Fantastic experience: My 6 year old daughter came yesterday for 4 fillings. The reception staff were lovely and welcoming and put my nerves at ease. The nurse and dentist were incredible with her. I wish we had more opportunity like this for adults to ease fears of the dentist. My daughter enjoyed the experience, she was given a teddy to cuddle that has the equipment on its nose that she was to have too. Everything was explained to my daughter before she had her procedure. And even better she got to watch tv whilst having it done. When finished we went into the recovery room and the lady in there was really lovely too. We were in and out by half 9 and appointment was at 9am. Thank you to you all at Leagrave Dental
