Eastbourne Gentle Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Amazing dental practice. Compassionate, friendly, will always do their very best to find to the earliest emergency appointment. The Dentists are excellent and very experienced. You get the best treatment and care. Excellent
Dear Cheryl,
Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to leave us a review. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Positive experience: Went as new patient, very friendly and thorough, took time to check properly have confidence in them will go back. Not NHS. 2025 update still good, and hygienist but I dislike going to the dentist.
Fantastic experience: Pujan is a very professional and welcoming dentist who explains everything and he is gentle! A great plus when you are a nervous patient. Eliza makes the perfect nurse too.
Fantastic experience: Extremely impressed and grateful for the service I have received at Gentle Dental. Dr Ali and Jess are an incredible team; through their professionalism and warmth they made my wisdom tooth extraction a pleasant experience. Even offering their time for follow up appointments when I had questions and concerns. Thank you Dr Ali, Jess and Team!
Positive experience: Nice surgery, lovely dentists, and happy with dentures, expensive, and some reception staff not so nice as 1,
Fantastic experience: I’m a very nervous patient, but coming here for a few years now has made me much calmer. My hygienist Anna is wonderful, very gentle and friendly.
Fantastic experience: After COVID, I found this practice for regular visits, a deep clean, a tooth extraction, and a new denture. Throughout it all, he was genuinely sincere in his care—calm, thorough, and always attentive. He explained everything clearly and made sure I felt at ease every step of the way. I truly appreciate his professionalism and personal touch. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: I hadn’t visited a dentist for 20+ years and was extremely nervous. I wouldn’t have got as far as even making an appointment without the wonderful receptionists. Pujan Soni my dentist understood my fears and with his calming manner explained everything that was going to happen. I am undergoing several procedures but finally now think I have started to conquer my fears. Thank you Eastbourne Gentle Dental for making me able to smile again! Excellent again! I’m undergoing a lengthy course of treatment. Again Pujan put me at my ease. Everything explained. Nothing was too much trouble. Excellent service. Exceptional service and treatment as usual. Thanks Pujan and your team. Another treatment plan just finished. As usual excellent service. Pujan just brilliant. Everything explained and all treatment plans discussed. All staff friendly and welcoming. Top class dentists
Dear Hilary, Thank you for sharing such a lovely review.
Fantastic experience: Dr Soni & Eliza were absolutely incredible. The advise and service was second to none. There was a stain on two of my teeth which has been there for 11 years. Dr Soni advised exactly what that stain was and proceeded to remove the stain in a matter of minutes. I cannot thank him enough for bringing my smile back.
Positive experience: Dr Sebastian Sehinson is a good, caring dentist, always informative and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Being completely petrified of the dentist I had no choice but to go . The care I received was amazing. The dentist was so patient and gentle with me. They are a really empathetic team. I will definitely be returning regularly from now on. Thank you so much Dr Ali xx
Negative experience: Advertises its open until 8 on a thursday but call at 16:30 and the answering machine say the practice is closed. Ridiculous
Fantastic experience: Wow what a dentist.I had an emergency appointment to remove a back tooth that had cracked.My fear and being hurt badly at a previous practice lead me to not visiting one for 10 years.All I can say is once back from a booked holiday I will be having the rest of my very neglected teeth sorted at this dentist.Thank you so much for looking after me,causing no pain with difficult extraction,making me feel at ease and not judging me.I will be seeing you again in September.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Ali and Amy were absolutely fantastic. The first dentist that has ever sat down and listened to my concerns and checked everything over properly. And I'm glad he did as previous dentists have made serious errors it seems. From doing a full exam and X-Rays which I was shown and had explained in such a fantastic way. There was absolutely no pressure to have anything done; incredibly caring and careful and mindful of those who may be anxious regarding any aspect of going to/being at a dentist (needles in this case!). I've had many dentists before say you won't feel the needle, don't worry etc. This was the first time I didn't even realise it was done until my mouth started going numb! Such an ease I have never felt at a dentist before. The work he did is incredible, the meticulous detail taken to re-building the front tooth is incredible; it looks completely natural. I will absolutely be coming back and hopefully getting the underlying issues identified fixed! I honestly cannot recommend this dentist enough.
Fantastic experience: Everything about my visit was fantastic, lovely friendly welcoming stuff at the front desk, very short waiting time, absolutely amazing, professional and reassuring service provided by Pujan Soni and assistant throughout my treatment, including Pujan creating two amazing looking teeth, so much so, that my wife couldn’t tell which were the ones I had done. The care, patience and attention given is outstanding and I felt very well taken care of, thanks to all at the practice, and particularly to Pujan with his wizardry teeth making skills, one very very happy customer here.
Fantastic experience: I've seen many dentist in my life, Ali gave me the best treatment ever, also with no pain. I will recommend to my family and friends. Thanks Ali. Best wishes Alex smith
Fantastic experience: Excellent dentistry friendly staff nice environment coffee offered via machine clean and tidy inviting for patients no pain guaranteed they call themselves gentle dentist they live up to that claim
Hi Joan,
Thank you for your kind 5* review.
Fantastic experience: Many thanks to Dr Sehinson for his very calm and professional manner whilst extracting two of my teeth. I was really anxious but he and his assistant made the whole process much easier than I had anticipated. The pain was really well managed and this morning I’m drinking a cup of tea without problems. The practice certainly lives up to its name.
Dear Margaret,
Thank you so much for leaving this amazing review. I have passed your comments on to Sebastian and the team. We are looking forward to seeing you soon. Take care!
Fantastic experience: Special thanks to Dr. Ali Yazdani for doing both my front teeth and can’t even noticed it’s being done with fillings. His skill is excellent. I’m very nervous with dentist but he is very kind and caring which calms me down. Again thank you very much. Definitely will recommend my friends if they are in need to see a dentist.
Fantastic experience: Great care and zero pain thanks to Ali’s care and attention to.
Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Game-Changer for Nervous Patients Like Me I’ve never been a fan of dentists due to bad past experiences, so it takes a lot for me to even consider booking an appointment. However, after visiting an exceptional clinic in Dublin (Monread Dental), I realised it was time to properly face things. By chance, I overheard someone in Sainsbury’s praising Gentle Dental in Eastbourne , and that conversation stuck with me. I finally built up the courage to get in touch, and I’m genuinely so glad I did. From the moment I called, the professionalism and warm, understanding approach of the reception team helped settle my nerves. But the real standout was the dentist himself ,a true credit to his profession. He showed such care, patience, and genuine compassion that it completely changed how I view dental visits. I won’t pretend I’m suddenly excited about dentist appointments, but for the first time in my life, I’m actually not dreading them. That says everything. Gentle Dental has earned my respect and trust — 10/10 and highly recommended to anyone nervous about getting dental work done.
Fantastic experience: I went for my new patient exam yesterday. The team were very welcoming, friendly and the service received was exceptional. My dentist identified areas I was missing when brushing and gave me tips on how to ensure these aren't getting missed. It was identified that I needed one filling, which was done immediately. My dentist was also very clear in giving instructions and keeping me informed as to what he was about to do. I have my hygiene appointment booked for a couple weeks time, and I'm actually excited for it! Gentle Dental really does live up to their name, as I did not feel any pain or discomfort during my appointment.
Fantastic experience: Kind, compassionate, understanding and thorough. I'm terrified of the dentist and Diego made me feel much more at ease very quickly and talked through everything. Worth the money for the appointment to have the care and detailed info I received.
Fantastic experience: As ever Sebastian and has team were very professional
Fantastic experience: I went here terrified of dentists but in terrible pain with a damaged tooth , had to have 3 appointments and first appointment I was sweating , shaking and terrified but by the 3rd appointment I had zero anxiety at all , along with fixing my teeth (root canal and filling) Sebastian has also cured my phobia at the same time
Fantastic experience: My partner came in last week as his crown had come out while we were on holiday in Eastbourne. He was seen within an hour, we thought this was really excellent service. Shame we live too far away otherwise this would be our regular dentist!
Fantastic experience: Excellent service from Ali and Jess at an emergency appointment today. Friendly, helpful staff
Fantastic experience: Had an emergency tooth extraction. Ali was brilliant, extracted the broken tooth without a problem. He was professional and calming. Would highly recommend him and his dental nurse Jessica.
Fantastic experience: I travel many miles, from Worthing to attend this practice... Diego is a great chap and top dentist... Excellent service all round.
Dear Lloyd,
Thank you for sharing such a lovely review.
Fantastic experience: I'm a regular patient of this clinic. Diego, who is my dentist, is professional but easy to talk to, friendly and approachable, fostering trust and confidence. He is understanding and always willing to address any fears or concerns about dental procedures. I also like the fact, that he is honest and transparent about treatment options available, and if treatment is not best for you, he will make it clear. Practice itself is clean, all staff are friendly and attentive. No hidden costs. Solid 5 stars.
Dear Katie,
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words.
Fantastic experience: Lovely staff, put you at ease, explain proposed treatment, during treatment are very reassuring, don't keep you waiting, and reasonable costs, not that much more than I was paying at NHS dentist. No hard sell, monitoring a tooth that may warrant a filling in the future (NHS dentist told me it needed doing). Parking good too and free!
Dear Debbie,
Thank you for such a lovely 5* star review and for your kind words. We look forward seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: A wonderful friendly team. First time visit and saw Ali, Aleisha, and Jess. Really made me feel comfortable and welcome. Would recommend highly
This is lovely to hear, thank you. We aim to provide high standards of patient care so to hear this is just lovely.
Fantastic experience: Dr Ali and Jessica were great. I was worried about having the drill but it did not hurt at all . Thank you
Thank you for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: I’ve only recently become a patient at this dental practice and am 100% impressed. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. I’ve had two long sessions with Dr Ali and Jess and I would give them 10 out of 10 for every aspect of my appointments. They fully explain everything they’re doing and the treatment has all been pain-free. I would wholeheartedly recommend this practice to anyone considering going to Gentle Dental.
Dear Ann,
Thank you for such kind words.
I will ensure to pass your comments on to Ali and Jess. Thank you for writing a review.
Fantastic experience: I had a lot of crown work and wear and tear fillings that needed doing. Dr Pujan Soni at Gentle Dental in Eastbourne started on it today and I had a filling that I couldn't see (it was as if it was a new tooth) and 3 Cerec© ceramic crowns. Because of their state of the art crown making kit it all took about 3 hours. Pujan and Eliza the nurse were both very friendly and the atmosphere relaxed but professional. The crowns are brilliant, colour match perfect and I went home and ate on them straight away! I am going back for two more crowns and some worn teeth built up in February and looking forward to getting my mouth back in order for a few more years. For pain free, hi tech professional dentistry, look no further.
Hi Nick,
Thank you for leaving us a 5* star review. I will make sure your kind words are passed on to Dr Pujan and Eliza.
Fantastic experience: Saw Ali and Jess today. I was nervous, but they were friendly and put me at ease for my tooth extraction. Many thanks to them and for the same day appointment Alan Clarke
Hi Alan,
Thank you for your kind words. I am happy to hear we were able to put you at ease throughout your treatment.
Fantastic experience: It seems that Arlington road is the place for good medicine practice (Arlington road surgery and now Gentle Dental) First time to visit the clinic today, not sure if it’s ok to mention the doctor’s name but he was excellent. Very professional and fixed my problem swiftly Friendly staff as well. In here you won’t feel pressured or rushed to accept any treatment plan this is a huge plus. Very positive experience and I can’t recommend it enough
Thank you for your review.
Fantastic experience: Super service, state of the art kit and, most important, almost pain free numbing injections! Highly recommended...
Thank you for your lovely review.
Fantastic experience: I hate the dentist! I immediately felt at ease by the helpful reception staff. The dental nurse who was welcoming and happy to have a chat. Dr Ali was great. Informed me of some work that needs doing. I don’t feel nervous for the work at all due to the staff here making me feel so at ease. Danielle at reception was lovely. Looking forward to getting my teeth sorted! UPDATE: had the work thanks to Ali and Jess who were brilliant. Listened to me made sure I was comfortable. Will be returning again my white fillings look so real and much better. Thank you both of you.
Hi Joe,
Thank you for your lovely 5* review. We are glad to hear you had a good experience at the practice. We look forward to seeing you next time.
Fantastic experience: Gentle Dental says it all, I was put at ease from the start of my treatment. The initial assessment to identify the problem, and the resulting extraction was professional, well explained, and painlessly carried out by dentist Ali and nurse Karolina. Highly recommended, and will be my dentist for my future visits.
Dear Steve,
Thank you for such a kind review. I will pass your comments over to Ali and Karolina.
Fantastic experience: I had a wisdom tooth removal with Dr Ali and dental nurse Jessica. Both extremely professional and had me at ease in moments. Tooth came right out. Highly recommend Gentle dentle!
Hi Liam,
Great to hear you had a good experience with our practice. We look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: Very clean and very experienced and easy stuff to deal with! Very happy and will be going again and recommending them
Thank you Ashley for your 5* review.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant. No matter how long it's been or how nervous or in pain you are, they will put you at ease and sort you out, no worries.
Thank you for such a lovely review.
Fantastic experience: This is the place to come to have an extraction, I had to have a lower molar removed and Dr Ali and staff were very understanding, and the procedure was painless, Highly recommend.
Hi Paul,
Thank you for your lovely review. I will pass on your comments to Ali.
Fantastic experience: I saw Dentist Ali as an emergency on Thursday and he was brilliant, the way he made me feel at ease. I thoroughly recommend Gentle Dental. Mr Mills
Thank you for such kind words. I will pass this on to Dr Ali.
Fantastic experience: Dentist Ali and Nurse Jessica were amazing explained everything very clearly and we’re just great with the whole procedure
Thank you for your kind words and 5* review.
Fantastic experience: Being able to book and pay online is pretty standard these days, but it’s surprisingly rare with local dentists. Gentle Dental stood out with their straightforward online booking system and online payment, no need to read out card details over the phone or deal with long waiting lists. That alone made me want to give them a try, and after a couple of visits, i've been really happy with the experience. They’ll be our go-to dentist from now on for both myself and my family.
Thank you for your lovely feedback and 5* review. It is always nice to receive such kind words and we look forward in seeing you and your family in the future.
Fantastic experience: impressed by the thorough and detailed use of x rays to determine my treatment plan and all was made clear with options presented. Liked the approach allowing me to make my own decisions in the light of the evidence as presented on screens relating to the x rays...
Dear William,
Thank you for your 5* review.
Fantastic experience: Can’t say I like visiting the dentist (who does?) but always found everyone at Gentle Dental highly professional and really good at putting you at ease! Can actually feel the difference my recent visit has made it my teeth!!
Thank you, Darren, for your 5* review. I am very happy to hear we put you at ease.
Fantastic experience: Very good and very professional dental practice Ali Yazdani and Jess did a wonderful job repairing my broken teeth with composite bonding and I can smile again I would highly recommended this dental practice to everyone
Hi Mark,
Thank you for your review and kind words.
Fantastic experience: Great practice. Service excellent. Staff friendly and professional
Thank you so much Sue for leaving us a 5* review.
Fantastic experience: My first visit to gentle dental was a emergency appointment and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The dentist Diego and nurse Aimèe were friendly and patient, they explained everything to me and gave me some options, they waited till we were sure the aesthetic had worked and in under a hour from arriving my tooth was fixed. Couldn't be happier
Thank you for such a lovely 5* star review and for your kind words. We look forward seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: A first class experience at Gentle Dental. Dr Ali Yazdani was superb. Within 90 minutes of ringing the surgery for an emergency appointment I was sat in the surgery. I can highly recommend Gentle Dental, very professional and without doubt the most painless tooth extraction I have ever experienced. I will be recommending them to my family and friends.
Hi Gary,
Thank you for such kind words and a lovely 5* review. It is so nice to hear that you had a great experience, and you are wanting to refer your family and friends to us.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Dr Ali, a true magician, wisdom tooth extraction in less in a few minutes, pain free. If you have any dental issues I highly recommend.
Thank you, Ross, for your 5* review. I will pass your review on Ali.
Fantastic experience: I have completed my treatment with Dr Pujan and nurse Eliza. They are very professional and friendly, and put me at ease every time I visit. I am glad to have found a doctor I am confident with.
Hi Arron,
It is always great to hear such lovely comments. We are so pleased we made you feel at ease.
Fantastic experience: Gentle Dental definitely lives up to its name!! After years of avoiding the dentist, I have made 3 visits to the clinic recently (as a new patient for an initial exam, hygienist appointment and treatment and cannot fault the care I’ve received. Dentist Diego was so kind, carefully explaining all the procedures throughout, and Sylanna and Hannah were both so lovely during my hygenist visit. I 100% recommend this practice!
Hi Caitlin,
It is always great to hear that we live up to our name and your treatment was pain free.
I shall pass your lovely words on to Diego.
Positive experience: New to me dentist Ali Yazdani was very kind, patient and explained it all very well. I am nervous and he constantly reassured me all would be okay and made sure i was ready for each step. Would be 5 star but that second/third injection wasn't pleasant! He did warn me though it wouldn't be as easy as the first one. The extraction itself was easy, quick and painless, which was a relief after the trauma of a previous truly awful extraction experience some years ago, done elsewhere.
Dear Christine,
Thank you for such kind words and a lovely 4* review. It is so nice to hear that you had a great experience with us. We look forward to seeing you again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Our entire family - my wife, son, and I - are all patients of Gentle Dental, and the experience has been exceptional. From the very first new patient exam to the treatment I received, every step of the process was handled with absolute professionalism and care. The whole team is outstanding, from the welcoming receptionists to the skilled dental assistants and the highly knowledgeable doctors. I’ve personally been treated by Dr. Natnael Desta, and he’s been brilliant - professional, reassuring, and excellent at what he does. My wife and son have also received top-tier care from other doctors at the practice, and their experiences have been just as fantastic.
Hi Aidan,
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is always so nice to get such a kind review.
Fantastic experience: I see hygienist Sylanna Vanyik on a regular basis as I have gum disease and she is professional, empathetic and kind. The staff are all very friendly and the environment is excellent too. No-one really looks forward to these appointments but Sylanna makes them as comfortable and pleasant as she can.
Fantastic experience: Excellent care provided at my first appointment. Given a very detailed report including photos and x-rays together with a plan for possible treatment without any pressure.
Fantastic experience: Like many others, I’m a very nervous individual when it comes to dentistry but now my feelings have changed completely at the hand of the incredible talent, compassion and professionalism at Gentle Dentle. These guys are the best in the business and I can only recommend to anyone that’s in need of care or treatment!
This is lovely to hear, thank you. We aim to provide high standards of patient care so to hear this is just just lovely.
Fantastic experience: Always come to see Anna the hygienist and she is honestly amazing! Wouldn’t go anywhere else. I get quite anxious when it comes to dentistry and Anna puts me at ease every time. Honestly couldn’t recommend her enough!
Fantastic experience: 2.12.24 I’m the most nervous patient, Diego and Rosie were so kind and patient with me,explaining every step with Rosie holding my hand , my first visit in years for a tooth extraction thank you
Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment here from dentist Nat and nurse Eliza. I am an extremely anxious patient and Nat was kind and explained all the treatment slowly and at every stage. At each appointment so far in a course of extensive treatment, i have been made to feel welcome by reception staff, and in the dental surgery, comfortable and treated with patience, kindness and understanding of my worries and needs. I can’t praise them highly enough. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Had a new crown fitted at Gentle Dental today. Very smooth procedure, every process explained fully and amazing technology to prepare the crown and make it. Thank you to highly qualified dentist Pujan and his assistant Eliza. Can recommend this dental practice, friendly helpful reception staff.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Nat and Eliza did an amazing job restoring my smile! Nat’s technical skills and how he explains complex procedures is amazing. Hollie was also so warm and kind, I felt so well taken care of. Thank you all
Fantastic experience: A friendly experience when visiting the hygienist, Sylanna. I left feeling that she cared about my oral hygiene
Fantastic experience: Nat and Eliza restored my trust in dental care and made a truly positive impact on my health. I am an extremely anxious patient with a history of traumatic experiences at the dentist, and my recent root canal treatment with Nat and Eliza was a very positive experience. From the moment I walked in, they were incredibly kind and gentle and I felt absolutely no pain throughout the entire process, which was a miracle for me.
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend this surgery - and Pujan particularly - highly enough. He’s brilliant—kind, thoughtful, and thorough. I’ve had a lot of issues with my teeth over the years, and Pujan is the only dentist I trust. If you’ve struggled with your teeth like I have, you’ll know how important it is to have a dentist who makes you feel safe and reassured. With Pujan, I always know whatever he does will be brilliant and done with the utmost care—not just for my teeth, but for my mental well-being in the process too. I get compliments on my teeth, and people don’t realise they’re admiring my crowns—another credit to Pujan. The surgery is also lovely and welcoming, which just adds to the whole experience. I’m very grateful for the care I have received.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly reception team. Excellent explanation of treatment before and during. Good value for good treatment.
Positive experience: At first, it was a very good dental practice. I can't praise Dr Devanna enough. He was very professional, explained everything. Top notch dentist. However, after having my appointment cancelled with no explanation, then having 2 phone calls being declined and no response to my email, I have to reduce my rating. I believed the practice was a really good one, but this lack of basic customer service and communication has really left me disappointed.
Fantastic experience: I recommend this practise for the quality of their work and the friendliness of the approach and the comprehensive explanation of proposed clinical procedures that were necessary for me I found very reassuring.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist, couldn’t recommend them enough, I used to hate going to the dentist for years and after not being able to get an NHS dentist anymore I looked at going private and won’t ever go back. Yes they are expensive but well worth the extra money to finally feel more relaxed and listened to, the dentists are highly skilled and you don’t have to worry that they don’t know what they are doing . Reception staff are super kind and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Quick efficient and friendly. Reception attentive, amiable and adaptable. Dentist was friendly, informative and was constantly aware of any discomfort, checking I was ok. Also prices are quite good. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind review.
Fantastic experience: Dr Ali Yazdani provided an excellent yet personalised service balanced with humour and professionalism supported by the Lady in Pink - like the adage says ' Smile and the whole world smiles with you...' A1 well done to you both ! Rgds Jason Taylor
Fantastic experience: Extremely talented dentist with a calm and relaxed friendly environment. The work I had done was done extremely well. No one would even notice that I have had 2 fillings done as they look 100% like natural teeth. It's a 10 out of 10 for me and would recommend to everyone that's a bit nervous of going to the dentist to check these people out. They also reasonably priced for the quality of work that they perform.
Dear Paul,
Thank you for leaving us a 5 star review.
Fantastic experience: I had a marvellous experience from the time I phoned for an emergency appointment at 9am , walked into reception at 11.50 and walked away with a new white filling on my front tooth by 1pm. All the staff were fantastic.
Fantastic experience: I've seen Dr Ali Yazdani on two visits, excellent treatment from him and his nurse Hannah. At every stage taken through step by step what what was involved in the treatment. he was able to repair something another pratics was unable to do with three visits. They are the gentle dental.
Fantastic experience: I was happy to receive a fast but thorough examination. Issues were shown to me and and necessary required work was explained to me for my next visit.
Hi Lee,
Thank you for your lovely 5* review. We are glad to hear you had a good experience at the practice. We look forward to seeing you next time.
Fantastic experience: I am very nervous person going to the dentist bit the very 1st second they nzde me fell at ease.i have been going for 3 years plus and I am not nervous at all
Fantastic experience: Booked an appointment online at 8am for 8.30am for the same day. That's big news based on the fact most dentists are still in the stone age when it comes to the Internet. Additionally, the dentist, Dr Pujan Soni, actually spoke to me and heard some of my concerns. Again, my experience of dentists in this area are "come in, shut up and open your mouth" kind of attitude. Treatment carried out on the same visit and even got lucky nabbing a cancelled appointment with hygienist. Couldn't even get a response from my last dentist about booking one of those. Go to this dentist, its run with some actual customer care!
Fantastic experience: Sebastian is excellent. He is so reassuring and I have total confidence in him .. he’s definitely a Gentle Dentist!
Fantastic experience: I am terrified of dentists!My experience visiting gentle dental was great.Everyone was calm and friendly and the dentist was gentle.Thank you
Fantastic experience: I have had treatment by Nat and Rosie. They gave given excellent service are both very patient and do quality work. Thank you
Hi Gary,
I will ensure to pass your comments on to Nat and Rosie. Thank you for writing a review.
Fantastic experience: I am so impressed with the treatment I have received at Eastbourne Gentle Dental! Nat and Rosie looked after me so well during my appointments, both very understanding and considerate of me being a nervous patient. My nerves calmed massively with each appointment - they have completely changed my opinion of going to the dentist and I am so grateful for this All the staff are so friendly, in particular the treatment coordinator, Hannah, who was incredibly supportive of my nervousness. You will be looked after at this dental practice
Dear Sophia,
I am so glad to hear that you were looked after and supported. Your review is amazing and thank you for taking the time to write it.
Fantastic experience: I had 2 fillings today with Pujan and I can honestly say that they were the least uncomfortable and most painless fillings I've ever had in my life (no exaggeration). From receptionists to dental nurse and dentist everyone is so pleasant and helpful and I can't praise them highly enough. Thank you all
Dear Daniel,
This is such an amazing review, Thank you. I will pass your amazing comments on to the team and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: I'm a very nervous patient, took me months to just book an initial assessment. Saw Diego who immediately made me feel calm and explained everything in great detail. Nothing was too much trouble. I will be returning, wouldn't go anywhere else now.
Hi, Thank you so much for your review. It is great to hear.
Fantastic experience: Firstly a deserved mention for the reception staff; always freindly, helpful and courteous. This time around, my booked dentist was running late and Danielle (Coe) found me an immediate replacement appointment with Pujan (Soni). At that appointment, it was determined that 2 x molar extractions was the best course of action. Pujan had availability an hour later so assessment and action taken in one morning. Pujan's "bedside manner" is exemplary. Calm and clearly spoken, well explained options and decision and step-by-step commentary and advice all helped to reassure and calm this patient during the assessment and the procedure itself. Thank you
Dear Kevin,
I am so happy to hear of your great experience. I will pass on your kind comments to the team and thank you for your amazing review.
Fantastic experience: Having waited over a year to get an NHS Dentist with no success! I decided to go private due to a tooth issue, they were very good, efficient and the staff were lovely. It isn’t cheap to go private, but the cost was better than others I had looked at. Having appointments later into the evenings and at weekends is also a massive bonus.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review.
Fantastic experience: Initially met by Hannah who was brilliant at explaining the services offered , my options and answering my questions. Sebastian and his nurse were very good, explained everything and carried out treatment with real care and attention to detail. Not sure you can say a trip to the dentist is pleasurable but these guys worked hard to make it as easy, painless and simple as possible.
Dear Andy,
Thank you for your lovely review. I am so glad to hear of your positive experience. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Gentle Dental. I needed a series of appointments to sort a couple of issues. I'm nervous of dental work having had bad experiences elsewhere in the past. I had several appointments with Nat and Rosie who did a fantastic job. Friendly, professional and calm - glad to have found such a great practice.
Dear James,
Thank you for your amazing review.
Fantastic experience: It is such a relief to have found this dental practice, having experienced very poor quality work and aftercare at other Eastbourne dentists. The treatment here is worth every penny, the premises spotless and the receptionists a delight I cannot recommend my current team of Rosi and Ryad (Rio) enough - although a trip to the dentist is never something you look forward to Gentle Dental is as good as it gets. I am sure that every patient receives the same quality care and I hope potential new patients feel reassured by this review
Dear Sarah,
Thank you for recommending our practice, and for leaving us such a great review.
Fantastic experience: I have just had work completed by Nat, over several sessions. Each has been painless and professional. The end result has been remarkable and I am more than satisfied. I initially contacted Gental Dental as my own dentist was unavailable, out of hours. However, GD were able to see me almost immediately. Upon arrival, all the team were very friendly and I felt welcomed. Thank you for all your work. It is much appreciated. Hazel

Fantastic experience: After having an emergency appointment Pujan decided the tooth needed to come out. He explained everything to me and gave instructions for aftercare.
Dear Doreen,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience with Eastbourne Gentle Dental! They were incredibly professional, efficient, and considerate during my tooth extraction. The procedure was quick, and they made sure I was comfortable throughout. Their communication was excellent—scans were explained clearly, and all my questions were answered. Highly recommend for anyone seeking top-notch dental care!
Dear Laila-Mae,
Thank you for your lovely comments and for taking the time to leave us a review. Take care and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Fantastic experience: Despite being utterly dentist phobic I have been seeing Diego for a few years now. My phobia , based on too many bad past experiences, persists but my rational self trusts Diego who has been kind, thoughtful and has ensured I have been pain free. First time I've trusted a dentist in decades!
Dear Gill,
What a great review! Thank you so much. I will pass your kind comments on to the team, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Eastbourne Gentle Dental need a shout out! Amazing Diego has fixed my radiotherapy damage today with the most pain-free dental work I have ever had, I may look like I've had a stroke, all swollen and lopsided with stitches too, but I want to thank you soo much for making me feel at ease and showing so much care - worth every penny!! 5 stars all the way!!
Hi Tracey,
Thank you for writing such a lovely review for us. Diego is a real credit to our team, and I have passed your comments on. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Pujan is fantastic- I was hugely phobic of dentists but he made the whole experience completely stress free. I now happily attend regularly for both check ups and hygienist appointments and the whole team is amazing
Dear Catherine,
This a great review! Thank you for taking the time to write it for us. I have passed your kind comments on to the team.
Fantastic experience: I have recently registered as a new patient here after moving to Eastbourne. So far I have had a hygienist appointment with Sylanna, who was fantastic and very friendly, and more recently a check up appointment with Diego, who went above and beyond to explain my x-rays and what was going on with all my teeth (crowns etc). It has made me feel very confident about going back for further appointments in the future.
Dear Kim,
Thank you for your review. I am glad to hear of your positive experiences. We look forward to seeing you again at your next appointments.
