Teamcare Dental Practice: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Taken on time. I appreciated the thorough check of getting my teeth x-rayed.
Positive experience: Very prompt and efficient service. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Excellent from start to finish. Steven has done a fantastic job and is always on time. I very much appreciate his skills and care.
Fantastic experience: Took me too long, sadly, to find a Dentist that I felt at ease with. This is the one. I'm now so comfortable going to get anything done. Thanks Dr S.Murphy at Teamcare.
Fantastic experience: My recent appointment at Teamcare Dental Practice was an extraction. I was apprehensive! Steven Murphy made me feel at ease by explaining the process and then giving a running commentary as he extracted my broken tooth. I found this helpful. Before leaving, I was given information about aftercare. I expected my gum to be painful for a few days, but it wasn't. I only took two paracetamol after the anaesthetic wore off.
Fantastic experience: Faultless experience on every visit. Friendly and welcoming reception staff, kind, efficient and knowledgeable dentists. Always seen promptly and fast communication online.
Fantastic experience: Excellent care always
Fantastic experience: As ever, excellent, friendly, efficient, effective. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Very good and would highly recommend this Dental Surgery The receptionists are caring and helpful and the treatment excellent My dentist is Stephen Murphy and I am a nervous patient but he always puts me at ease and makes the treatment as pain free as possible and he and his assistant are always very friendly and courteous Maureen Brewer
Fantastic experience: Excellent Dental Surgery, would thoroughly recommend
Fantastic experience: check up went well thank you.
Fantastic experience: The Teamcare dental team have always been first class and I've been with them for 50 years. I unfortunately had to have an extraction which was performed brilliantly. I never really felt a thing. I was a bit nervous as I've not had a tooth out for 40 years, but I didn't need to worry, it was cool. Aftercare was fantastic from everyone on duty that day (enough said). Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: Efficient, friendly, honest and helpful dentists' surgery. Cannot recommend Teamcare enough.
Fantastic experience: Everything about my recent visit to Teamcare Dental Practice was perfect. 100% recommend. It always is.
Negative experience: I do not recommend Teamcare Dental Practice — especially for anyone considering a finance plan. I came to this practice with clear expectations and was polite, patient, and cooperative throughout. In return, I was misled, dismissed, and treated with complete disregard. I was told my full treatment — including braces removal, retainers, and a hygiene appointment — would be covered under a finance plan. But once the loan was approved, they suddenly told me the hygiene appointment wasn’t included. The only “solution” they offered was to amend the finance plan to make me pay more — despite the fact that it was their internal mistake, not the finance company’s (Tabeo). Then they claimed Tabeo rejected the change because it was too late — again, because of their delay. Yet they made it seem like that wasn’t their responsibility. After that, they kept stringing me along — saying they’d “try to fix it” and asking me to wait while they “looked into it.” I gave them time, followed up multiple times, and was ignored or fed vague excuses. After all that, they came back with nothing. No real solution, no accountability, not even a basic gesture of goodwill. It felt like they were playing with me — wasting my time and treating me like my concerns didn’t matter. If you value honesty, proper communication, and basic respect as a patient, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. This practice is not trustworthy.
Fantastic experience: Fine
Fantastic experience: Ever since my childhood I had avoided going to visit a dentist having had some painful and traumatic experiences. Now in my 80's I can honestly say that I am grateful to Teamcare Dental Practice for helping me to put all of my fears behind me. My most recent visit to Pep for example was even enjoyable. I can't be more grateful for his kind and skilful attention and care. Well done, and thank you.
Fantastic experience: A painless tooth extraction. So happy to have had Mr Murphy as my dentist over a long period of time
Fantastic experience: There is no doubt that this long established dental practice in Bedford is exceptional. The team are professional, sensitive and understanding. I have benefitted from both their private and NHS care over the years and cannot fault either. Workmanship is always of the highest standard. They do have a good emergency service from 9am to 10am which is a real god send for when you get those rare toothaches etc. I did have a few problems with the latter once due to staff sickness and a faulty router, but I am sure they have put in place practices to resolve those issues should they arise again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Everyone is so lovely and helpful from the receptionists to the dentists and it’s a straightforward pleasant experience. Couldn’t recommend Teamcare enough.
Fantastic experience: Care was delivered with skill and kindness, everything explained well and the appointment was on time. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Always very polite and caring. Pain free experience.
Fantastic experience: The whole experience was excellent, from the initial phone call, reception and the caring dentistry .
Positive experience: great to get a hygienist appointment straight after the dentist.
Fantastic experience: Great service as always
Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment as always
Fantastic experience: Always great service and care from Pep and his team.
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Teamcare Dental where I received treatment for a front composite filling. The staff are incredibly friendly and take their time to ensure comfort and that everything looks perfect. The filling looks even better than the first one I had—very pleased with the results! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Super service and such a kind caring atmosphere and pain free dentistry
Fantastic experience: I found Teamcare efficient caring and the reception professional welcoming and interactive in an enjoyable way and I was able to have a laugh along with the professionalism which is good for relaxing a nervous customer though I was very relaxed through out the procedure as I was in safe hands.
Fantastic experience: Without a doubt, Fatima is the nicest hygienist I have ever seen. She was kind, patient, thorough and generally lovely. Thanks Fatima!
Negative experience: I had Invisalign done here by a dentist travelling in from London. He was at least late to every single appointment, multiple were cancelled late the day before or on the day, one being cancelled while I was literally sat in their waiting room because the dentist was stuck in traffic. They need to change their website because I, as their patient, would never recommend them. I also still feel the parts that they added to my teeth to hold the Invisalign in place, and I wasn’t fully happy with my teeth at the end of my course, but because they were so difficult to deal with, decided I’d rather not have to keep trying to attend appointments.
Fantastic experience: i was very quickly given an appointment after a tooth broke, and the repair was done pain free with great care. many thanks. jc
Fantastic experience: Pep is a very gentle practitioner , unlike some others I have had in my youth and manages to preserve my teeth into old age!!
Fantastic experience: It was only a check up but the service was excellent, as ever. Not kept waiting , in and out very quickly.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Dr Murphy's for over 20 years and over that time I have always received superb treatment. I have recently moved to London so sadly yesterday was my last visit to the practice. I will really miss the expert care I have received from Dr Murphy and also the kindness and cheerfulness of the dental assistants and receptionists. A huge thank you to you all!
Fantastic experience: Always given the closest attention and care, to the best of professional service from the moment you step into the waiting room.
Fantastic experience: Excellent as always. Always a pleasant experience and no waiting! I find the whole service very professional.
Negative experience: After my appointment with the hygienist cutting my gum during the cleaning, I then had to pay to come back to be seen for 10 minutes, after waiting 25 minutes, just to be given a prescription, which I then also had to pay for. Emailed the reception with my feedback which initially was ignored and then received a generic response apologising for the inconvenience. Not good enough.
Fantastic experience: Very quick and efficient as always. Great job and thanks very much.
Fantastic experience: Excellent skilled care from very pleasant professionals
Fantastic experience: Appointment with Dr Mohammed Noman Khokhar, I had a very friendly, calm and understanding appointment today. Mohammad kindly spent time explaining various things to me in detail and happily answered my many questions! Thank you
Fantastic experience: Friendly helpful reception staff and Mr Murphy is probably the most cheerful Dentist you will meet.
Fantastic experience: Whilst visiting the dentist is unlikely to ever be considered ‘a pleasure’, Teamcare make it as pleasurable as possible. The reception staff are always friendly, Steven and his assistant are always prompt to see me and also friendly. Appointment reminder texts and emails are life savers! I've been with the same practice since childhood (albeit the dentists themselves have changed over that time). Overall, I honestly think I’d be hard pressed to find a better dental practice. Thank you to everyone at Teamcare!
Fantastic experience: Dentist and reception team very polite and friendly. Have been going to them for 58 years,wouldn’t consider anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Superb dental team, very friendly receptionists, and great care from my dentist. Would happily recommend their practice to anyone.
Fantastic experience: I've recently signed up to TeamCare Dental as finding an NHS dentist was impossible. I went in for a root canal, and although it was a little pricier, you get what you pay for. The dentist (Mohammed) has been so explanatory through every step of the way, and makes sure you are completely aware of what is going to be done. The nurse who's name I didn't catch, has also been amazing. Every 5 minutes or so asking if I'm OK and humming along to the songs on the radio to really make you feel at ease. I'm not a big fan of the dentists and get quite nervous before appointments but going back again I feel really confident in their ability, communication and commitment to making my teeth 100% how they should be. Definitely recommend this dental practice!
Fantastic experience: I always feel at ease knowing Pep is highly skilled and approachable. I receive a very professional service from Teamcare.
Fantastic experience: Professional yet relaxed appointment, putting me at ease for my procedure. Dr Murphy was very patient and skilled, handling the tools with precision and care. Pain free treatment, which hadn’t been the case with previous dentist. The nurse/assistant was very attentive, excellent use of the vacuum and checked in on me a couple of times. All finished in a timely manner with good advice upon leaving to ensure my comfort and success of the treatment. The receptionist was personable and efficient, and the price was very good.
Fantastic experience: Steven is a brilliant dentist - kind and caring and knowledgeable and efficient. We have been going to him for years and feel lucky to found have him and the whole Teamcare team.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic dentist. Always very calm, friendly and professional. They have been looking after my family's dental needs for years, and I have always felt confident we will be well looked after
Negative experience: No transparent information regarding fees on the website, as opposed to all other practices who clearly show this information. £ practitioners always shown on there website, but these aren't the ones that you seen when you book an appointment. I have not received the "perfect" care that is advertised by Teamcare on Facebook or their website, I don't know how they get 5 star reviews, unless they pay Google to bump them up. Very Very disappointed and they don't actual care despite what they say. Never ever get a response to put things right either
Fantastic experience: Excellent dental practice, professional and friendly staff. High level of care, thank you.
Fantastic experience: Only positive things to say! Been seeing Stephen for years - he’s a brilliant dentist. All the staff are lovely and there’s always a friendly welcome by phone and in person.
Fantastic experience: My visit to Pep was thorough and professional yet informal and friendly. He is always providing top quality service and great feedback on my dental hygiene.
Fantastic experience: My extraction was quick, painless and surprised me with a job quickly and efficiently done
Fantastic experience: This practice is exceptional! All the staff are kind, friendly and helpful and my experience with my dentist Pep is brilliant! He is so considerate and caring, dentistry here has definitely come a long way from my awful experiences in my younger years! I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone, especially those with a fear of dentists!

Fantastic experience: Just had a bone graft done in preparation for a tooth implant at Teamcare. The information and telephone call I received before the appointment to put me at ease and fully explain the procedure was very much appreciated.

I have been going to Teamcare for a few years , and each time I go, the care and results have been first class.

Positive experience: I have had a great experience with Dr Jai on my dental implants. Also, recently I have seen Dr Mohammed Khoker for a replacement veneer and some general tooth decay issues. Dr Khoker explains everything really well and does a thorough job. My only complaint would some occasional discomfort with the tools being used.
Fantastic experience: I am so impressed by Pep who removed one of my teeth recently. He is so kind and patient and explained everything to put me at ease. Id recommend him to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Great service from Team Care as always! I liaised with Beckie on reception quite a bit in the run-up to my appointment as I had some specific concerns about my teeth - she was really helpful and relayed everything to Steven Murphy to ensure everything went perfectly on the day and there was sufficient time to complete my treatment. I also saw the hygienist for the first time ever - wow, my mouth felt amazing afterwards and my teeth were so much whiter as a result - definitely worth the time and money and I will 100% be back for more! Really good service and I feel great about my overall oral health as a result of this visit - thanks again Team Care :-)
