The Private Dental Centre: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Stacey was fantastic & 100% spot on regards to the Oral B series 3 electric toothbrush it’s awesome and definitely cleans my teeth better than a manual brush. A huge thank you to Stacey.
Fantastic experience: From cleanings to crowning a front top tooth so realistically that even I forget it’s not the real thing, the Private Dental Centre is absolutely exceptional. Add to that the gorgeous old schoolhouse that serves as their office and it can feel more like a trip to the spa than to the dentist. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Started my journey with 44 derngate The private dental centre back in june/july 2023, I booked an appointment and was introduced to Dr Chandan Hanji. I had some missing and broken teeth along with a very old front crown on a post that had moved and cracked, my smile wasn’t the greatest or one I was very confident of. Chandi gave me a nice smile for my daughter’s wedding with some temporary crowns but he had also put in place a treatment plan for implants and crowns. It’s taken nearly two years to get to where I am now due to family bereavements and personal serious life threatening health issue that was pointed out by the dental centre themselves in a pre-op. I can’t thank all the staff enough for basically saving my life and especially to Chandi for his patience and perfect work to my smile. Thank you to all at the private dental centre!
Fantastic experience: I first went to 44 Derngate when I had a raving toothache complete agony. I called them and they appogised they couldn't see me that evening which surprised me anyway but would see me the following day. The staff welcomed me with open arms and I was so impressed with the care and time they spent with me. I was so used to being in and out of the dentist in 2mins. I met Vik a lovely guy and he did an amazing job taking the tooth out,to be honest it was out so quickly I didn't even know . I have continued to use 44 Derngate for all my checkups etc . Vik who looks after me is professional everytime and we always have a plan to keep my teeth healthy and in good condition.
Fantastic experience: Very professional always pleasant and great experience.
Fantastic experience: First class treatment every time, the staff are amazing
Fantastic experience: Although very expensive, the treatment is excellent and the staff friendly. My initial appointment turned into lots of return visits to fix my problem. As with every dr tidy (and doctor), you’re never seen on time unless you have the first slot of the day, but that’s not a huge issue, as it is what one expects. I have recommended 44 to a friend, who is equally happy.
Fantastic experience: I had an appointment with Prabjot Mann for an hygienist appointment. She explained how she was going to conduct the examination and was considerate and asked regularly that I was okay with the procedure. I was very satisfied with the service I received.
Positive experience: I am a nervous patient and was put at ease straight away by Arjun. This was my first visit , and hopefully subsequent visits will be the same.
Fantastic experience: My new review from yesterday and had the pleasure of meeting Chanden Handi who took my damaged back tooth out with professionalism and pain free and yes I worried but I didn’t need to be and I have woken up this morning with minimum pain and looking forward to seeing Ravi now for my next treatment. Very good and Chanden and his lovely assistant Olesea and all at reception were amazing. I have always had a good experience at the Private Dental centre and believe me it’s worth every penny, thanks again, Matt Hello everyone, I had the pleasure of meeting Ravi again today which was an excellent experience As always with the help of his kind assistant, Aimee. The reception team were very friendly, including Gemma Anna and Nicola who gave a warm welcome when I walked through the door. I can’t speak highly enough of Ravi’s professionalism on each occasion that I come to The Private dental Centre and he went over and above as always to make me feel comfortable and I left very satisfied with the treatment. I must admit, Ravi is the kindest dentist I have ever met from welcoming before having treatment , confidence during treatment and giving advice at the end of how to care for your treatment. Thanks so much. All the best Matt.

Fantastic experience: My son has Down's Syndrome and he had his first consultation with the clinic He was treated with kindness and consideration and is having treatment from the hygienist over a number of sessions as recommended by the dentist Everything from arrival through until leaving was carried out in a very professional manner by all of the staff Would recommend them wholeheartedly
Fantastic experience: Ignore the name it’s my sons, this dentist is the best I’ve ever been to. From the admin staff to the dental nurses and the dentists, they are kind and professional. I am an anxious patient and i cannot speak of them highly enough. They are so reassuring it really does put you at ease. Thank you for making my journey an easier one than expected!
Fantastic experience: We went to the clinic to discuss additional vaccinations for our holiday, Hannah was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend her, especially if you have health issues, and need additional advice outside of the NHS.

Fantastic experience: Very professional at all levels. and highly skilled treatment teams. Very smart premises, always a warm greeting and treatment is first class.
Negative experience: Never, ever use this clinic, I want to forget forever that I was here. Liars and scammers!!!
Fantastic experience: The staff here are fantastic I really don't like going to the dentist but this one is great they go above and beyond to make you feel at ease
Fantastic experience: Recently visited these guys for an hygiene appointment the hygienist lady I had Viktoryia Rabson and the dental assistant (sorry never got your name) were so good very professional friendly and thorough! They put me at ease straight away informing of everything they were doing. Such a refreshing experience unlike my previous dentist on Grange Park. And tbh the cost wasn’t a lot different but the service was 100% better!
Fantastic experience: I’ve had a fear of the dentist for 10+ years after a bad experience. I knew I needed work so gave this dentist a go and I couldn’t fault them, I was put at ease throughout the whole experience with Dr Gurv.
Fantastic experience: Calm and professional experience as soon as you walk through the door. Thoroughly recommend my dentist Arjun, talked me through the treatment I required from essential to bits j might like. Absolutely no pressure, he listened to what I would like and set me a plan. Stephanie the hygienist was amazing, my teeth were not the best, after two sessions my teeth have improved so much now I do not have any plaque! Before I would dread going to the dentist……now I love it!
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service. Dr Chandan is the best! And his assistants of course. I would give 6 stars
Fantastic experience: It was as great as a dental visit can be :)
Fantastic experience: First class service from start to finish Helpful a polite staff
Fantastic experience: After my experience with my old NHS dentist who made me become a very anxious patient, it was so nice to be treated so well by everyone. My new dentist and the dental assistent "went the extra mile" to make me feel save.
Fantastic experience: Victoria, one of the hygienists, provides excellent care and advice, which has made so much difference to my dental health. I highly recommend her.
Fantastic experience: I had a very good impression of your facilities. The secretary/receptionist was extremely friendly and put me at ease straight away, I then had my appointment with the dentist who was Dr Chandhan Hanji he was extremely friendly and gave me the impression that nothing was too much trouble he went above and beyond my expectations so all in all I enjoyed my visit.
Fantastic experience: I went to this Private Dentist because I couldn't get an emergency appointment at my usual NHS, or any other. I was so glad that I came here as my problem was solved and I was given a plan for all of the problems that I had plus lower dentures. As it was done over time I don't think it was much more than I would have paid on NHS anyway, plus I have had much better treatments. I never thought that I could go private but I am so glad that I came here and I am staying for future treatment. I have confidence in my dentist and after a few visits I also feel so much more comfortable. I could give more than 5 stars and definitely recommend them.
Positive experience: Calm and spacious dental practice. Excellent dental team were very friendly, timely and explain what they are going to do and any recommended treatment plan. Would be a five star review however reception admin staff seemed quite swamped at the payment desk and did not give time to explain how booking follow up treatments work and deposits taken, did not inform me of the amount/ percentage that would be debited only that it would be refunded to my dental account if I needed to reschedule with notice. Not sure how much notice needed and what amount of deposit would be lost.
Fantastic experience: Excellent Service from start to finish on my treatment, I would highly recommend this practice to anyone, but more importantly to anyone who is nervous of dental treatment as I wouldn’t go on my own at first, but I soon put at ease by my dentist and now go alone. Obviously more expensive than NHS treatment, but in my opinion worth every penny because of the first class service & understanding I have received. I wouldn’t go anywhere else now.
Fantastic experience: This dental practice does not feel like the typical dentist, the building is beautiful and when you are in the waiting rooms it feels more like a spa reception than a dentist. The dental rooms are also very comfortable and spacious which adds to a luxurious environment. The professionals I have seen have all been very thorough and clearly have their patients best interests at heart. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking a dental practice who wants to help you and will make you feel at ease.
Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough about the treatment i have received from Mr Hanji and his team. Brilliant service professional at all times.
Fantastic experience: Always an excellent service from Dr Ravi I love my dental check ups, he is an amazing dentist
Fantastic experience: Ravi, what can I say. He is the most wonderful dentist I’ve ever had. I trust his expertise implicitly and I have always left feeling my teeth have been looked after with such care and attention to detail. Thank you 44 derngate for always making my dental appointments a pleasure!
Fantastic experience: The best dentist clininic . All staff very nice and kind . The best doctors what I meet ❤️
Fantastic experience: Great first appointment with Ravi, talked me through all options, possibilities and most of all was very honest about what I can achieve with various treatments. Looking forward to the results of my treatment plan, and the customer service from walking through the door to booking follow up appointments was great!
Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked in I was looked after! Music blasting good vibes put me at ease, Dentist really took time to discuss my goals for my teeth & after a thorough assement talked me through the plan and current status of my oral health. Looking forward to putting it in action.
Fantastic experience: Visited Dr Vohra yesterday to have my brace adjusted. Excellent friendly and professional service as always. Looking forward to the rest of my treatment plan.
Fantastic experience: Very professional service for private travel vaccinations
Fantastic experience: I had my treatment by dentist Dr Chandan Hanji, for previous failed implant surgery which was quite complex and lengthy. I have to say what an amazing Dental surgeon this gentleman is, the treatment from start to finish was 1st class truly excellent. I was extremely nervous and anxious because I knew the procedure was very complex but I was put at ease and he made me feel totally relaxed. This treatment has been life changing for me, and will make a huge impact on my health and my smile looks gorgeous ❤️
Fantastic experience: I used this practice for many years and moved area so moved Dentist, however after 2 years I have returned, because the service you receive at the Private Dental Centre is the best. I am happy to travel 2 hours for this service. I need some treatment and Chandler my dentist has been excellent, explaining everything and giving me options. I am confident in his advice and I amsure my issues will be resolved.
Fantastic experience: Always a pleasant experience with Ravi! In depth consultation before any work required, options always discussed. He has a very professional approach and puts one’s mind at ease. Couldn’t ask for better service!! Good work all at 44 CC Derngate.
Fantastic experience: Hannah was very good, well organised, nice and gave comfort that she knows her stuff and provided good advice, clearly and concisely. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I love coming for my check up and dental clean....I am made feel so welcome from the receptionist to appointments....everyone is so professional
Fantastic experience: As I am extremely anxious about the dentist, the staff here are amazing from start to finish. Vicktoyria is exceptionally reassuring along with the lovely Alina, who is very calming. Their genuine care and professionalism makes all the difference. Vicktoyria, thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: Very happy with my visit, from receptionist through to the consultation with my dentist. I’m a very nervous patient but put at ease by everyone.
Fantastic experience: Always a rewarding visit to see the hygeinist, Prabjot. Always very thorough & always explains each stage. Teeth / gums never been better.
Fantastic experience: Feeling anxious about my visit, I was put at ease with friendly, professional staff. My treatment was explained thoroughly.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been terrified of dentists for as long as I can remember, but this practice is amazing. Every single staff member is smiley, kind and caring. I can honestly say I’ve not been anywhere that’s felt so friendly. The practice feels more like a home, and doesn’t even smell clinical! It really is so lovely!
Fantastic experience: Dr Vohra….. This wonderful man is without doubt the best orthodontist there is. It’s been a long journey and a few unforeseen hurdles along the way, but Vikas has shown nothing but complete empathy, respect and compassion from day one. His knowledge is second to none, a perfectionist in his field, always been on hand to give good advice whenever I’ve had any concerns, no matter how small they may be. I cannot speak highly enough of this incredible human. It’s been an absolute pleasure Vik to have met you and become one of your patients. I can’t thank you enough for all your care and expertise you have shown me. An absolute credit to 44 Derngate without a shadow of a doubt.
Fantastic experience: Had an hour with the Hygiene team today. Its amazing how much this actually cleans your teeth and educates. See you again in 6 months!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing place,everyone is so lovely to talk to and very though with your assessment highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Caring and understanding of my fear of visiting the dentist. Full explanation, of the procedure I need, but no pressure. All doubts and worries taken away by the calm demeaner of Chandhan Hanji.
Fantastic experience: I came for an appointment on the 22/1024 and to be honest it was amazing. The building is very clean and well presented with great reception staff that helped me with every step of the registration. Ravi is an AMAZING guy took the time to talk me through all my options and actually treated me like a person more than a patient I can't rate his professionalism enough. Thanks to the staff and Ravi I will be making this my first and only place to have any further treatment. Many thanks to all. Darren
Fantastic experience: The building itself is stunning, inside and out ,the staff are always really pleasant and welcoming, I was recommended to go by family and I have since recommended friends to go which they do
Fantastic experience: I cannot thank Dr Ravi enough, I have never smiled properly as I was so embarrassed of my teeth and he’s completely changed that! From my first initial appointment with Dr Chan and then all my work with Dr Ravi, I’ve received nothing but 5 star service! I can’t recommend them highly enough, so grateful!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend - Dr Chan and the team provided a great experience - treatment was carried out professionally with clear communication in an excellent environment
Fantastic experience: Beautiful setting . Friendly staff and the dentist put you at ease. Really clean and a pleasure to visit.
Fantastic experience: Had a loose crown and phoned Derngate. Luckily they had a slot just a few minutes away. From phone call to reseated, and refitted crown took under an hour. Delighted. thank you.
Positive experience: My Dentist and Dental nurse were excellent as always. Unfortunately, the receptionist did not listen to me when I said my appointment was 1130 and kept insisting it was 1150; she completely ignored me; even when I showed her my text message, which clearly said 1130, she said they must have changed it. They hadn't she had me mixed up with someone else, making me late for my actual appointment.
Fantastic experience: Had the best experience getting travel vaccinations - didn’t feel pressured and felt that all the information was really useful
Fantastic experience: A good dental practice, well equipped, and very friendly. The combination of structured hygienist and dentist appointments works well. The step up from NHS care some years ago, was an eye opener. We both felt that we now understood how to properly look after our teeth and gums. The recommended changes to our cleaning techniques, and adaptations when parts weren’t working right, have noticeably improved our tooth and gum care.
Fantastic experience: I just extracted my wisdom tooth by Dr CHANDAN HANJI ,l don't know how to thank you,you are the best in the business, just 15mn my wisdom tooth done ,l couldn't believe it ,anxious (two consultation pay somewhere)but at derngate dental centre you make me my life easy, Dr CHANDAN HANJI thank you so much, Dr HANJI you are a legend

What price do you pay to maintain one's dental health over decades. Honest patient care and advice, attentive listening and high customer focus. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Chan has been amazing. 3 implants, 2 bone grafts and a wisdom tooth removal at the same time. No external bruising, painkillers provided and follow ups have been great. Thoroughly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I was referred for an impacted wisdom tooth extraction with Dr Hanji. He came highly recommend and after meeting him I can see why. He was instantly able to put my nerves at ease while also calmy explaining what the procedure involved. He is extremely knowledgeable with wealth of experience and talent in his field. The whole experience couldn’t have been better. From the warm welcome from the practice staff, the beautifully settings, the thorough pre-op care and consent with Jade to the procedure itself with Dr Hanji assisted by Olesea and Eladia. I always felt I was in great hands. The after care was also excellent with lots of information provided and a follow up call to see how I was feeling the next day. If I had to do it again, I would pick Private Dental Clinic every time. Thank you to the whole team for taking such great care of me x
