Negative experience: Called 111 for advise on a tooth issue, Was sent here. Woman on reception was very helpful and fitted me in with no problems, even there being no appointment. When going to the dentist, generally have a fear the woman doing the x rays etc didn’t even seem approachable. The man doing the x ray was very good and helpful. Didn’t like the atmosphere and felt like I was being judged.

I am sorry to hear of your negative experience at Blaby Dental during your emergency appointment. Let me assure you we always endeavour to treat every patient with kindness and respect. A visit to the dentist can be a stressful experience at the best of times and we pride ourselves on creating a calming and relaxing environment. If in this case we fell short we apologise.

Fantastic experience: I have been using the practice for a number of years - staff are very professional and always make me feel at ease. Recently had some work done with my receding gums which involved over fillings - truly wonderful - I have gone from eating and drinking on one side of my mouth to completely normal - maybe TMI - but Dr Green and Jade are FAB!!!! Thanks - 31/07/2025 Over the last two weeks I have had two back teeth out - removed by Rajen - he was super patient and removed both without issue - keep up the great work Blaby Dental Practice. Thanks to the whole team - you rock!! Thanks again. Let's hope I don't need any more out for a while :-) From Sean Kerr

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend this dental practice. I had a dental implant recently, which was a complex procedure due to a bone graft requirement. Saad was amazing throughout all appointments. He explained each stage thoroughly and took good care of me throughout. His assistant Catherine was lovely and supported me through every procedure. Both Saad and Catherine are very professional with a caring nature to help you through your dental procedures! My implant looks amazing and very realistic!
Dear Michelle,
Thank you for taking the time to give feedback on your implant placement proceedure. Catherine and Saad will be delighted to hear your kind comments. We hope you had an excellent result. We look forward to seeing you again.

Fantastic experience: Having had a butcher of a dentist during childhood, it left me with a lifelong phobia of any treatment. I only went when the pain became unbearable. As a result I was a very nervous patient. Dr Bhatt (Dr Sexy) and the team have transformed my life, and I'm not saying that lightly. His super calming approach, straightforward explanations of the work needed (in a non judgemental fashion) has helped me immensely in coping with my initial consultation, through to progressing with (for me) extensive correction work. I now have a smile I love to show off and it has boosted my confidence immeasurably. The surgery is spotless, calming and all the staff are lovely. I cannot recommend them highly enough. J.Dignall
Dear Shoestring Shed,
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased you had a positive experience at the practice. Dr Bhatt (Dr Sexy) will be happy to hear of your comments! We look forward to seeing you again.

Fantastic experience: All the staff here are absolutely amazing, and big shout out to the Welsh lady Dental Hygienist (sorry terrible with names) as this is a treatment am not keen on but she does a brilliant job.

Fantastic experience: I've got health issues that contribute to tooth decay and difficulty going to the dentists. Dr Green has been very understanding and helped me get to a point where I can consistently live without pain in my mouth for the first time in a decade. My anxieties about coming to the dentist have been accepted and accommodated by Dr Green. Lucy is also a fantastic dental nurse who has made my visits a lot easier and relaxed. All the women on reception have been really flexible helping me get appointments and arrange things around my treatment plan.

Fantastic experience: I’ve used Blaby dentist for a long time but have been particularly impressed with access during Covid and now with NHS dental appointments hard to come by for many people. During the pandemic I needed a couple of urgent appointments, which I got within a day or two. I have since had 2 children and was able to register them soon after birth with the dentist and have regular check up appointments for them. Staff are always pleasant and helpful. Thank you for doing a great job.
Dear Helen,
Thank you for your kind review we are delighted to hear of your positive experience at the practice. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Fantastic experience: I don’t think many look forward to a visit to the dentist but in my case I’m quite happy to. I’m always treated with courtesy and made to feel comfortable. I have been attending the Blaby practice for a number of years now and thanks to the advice from Dr Rughani T Mackey (apologies if I have spelled your name wrong) and Mrs Gemma Jones, Hygienist, both excellent at what they do.
Dear Steven,
Thank you for your kind review and sharing your positive experience of the practice. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Fantastic experience: After 18 months of waiting for a referral to the NHS orthodontist, and being told by them we still had 3 years to wait, I booked my daughter an appointment to see Dr Patel privately. What I thought may be considered ‘cosmetic’, ended up being much more that we anticipated and Dr Patel explained everything thoroughly to us including her treatment needs and the importance of getting this started while she is still growing. I cannot thank him enough for his recommendations and expertise.
Dear Louise,
We are delighted you and your daughter has such a positive experience at the practice. We wish you well with your treatment and thank you for taking the time to leave your kind review.

Negative experience: I had a very poor experience here and would not recommend. The dentist advised I needed a tooth extraction due to a cracked tooth and referred me to have it done elsewhere. I had no problem being referred as the reasons why seemed to make sense. However, the way that the dentist presented the idea of an extraction to me and the language used did not fill me with confidence that it was even necessary. I felt she was dithering and seemed unsure. I explained this to the dentist whom I’d been referred to and they agreed that it wouldn’t harm for me to get a 2nd opinion from Blaby before going ahead with this irreversible procedure when considering the lack of confidence I had felt in the dentist. When I called to book another slot for a second opinion (paid) with a different dentist the receptionist refused and said that any dentist I saw would agree with each other. Clearly not understanding the concept of 2nd opinions and showing extreme level of arrogance I lost all faith in the ability of this practise and will never be returning here under any circumstances. I would give zero stars but 1 is the lowest unfortunately.
Dear John,
I am really sorry to hear of the bad experience you had at the practice on your last visit.
We pride ourselves on the highest standard of care and customer service. We have clearly not met your standards on this occasion and we sincerely apologise for that and will take on the feedback to improve our processes for the future.
I see that you have decided to go elsewhere now and ofcourse we respect that decision. If you require your notes or any further information to provide to your new dentist please let us know.
We wish you all the best for your future care.
Yours sincerely,
Blaby Dental

Thank you for your kind review. Jess will be very pleased with your comments and ofcourse we are delighted you are so happy with your aesthetic result. We look forward to seeing you again.

Negative experience: My wife called them up a week ago to get registered as an NHS patient. She went in today for her first appointment for a mandatory check-up. She was charged £70 without explanation. The NHS band 1 - which is where the check-ups fall under is £25.80. So, I asked her to go back to check on why they charged 70 - then the receptionist had given a break down saying the checkup was 25.80, and she was booked in for two private procedures priced at £380 (which my wife hadn't consented to before - or even informed) and the additional £44.20 (the odd number) was an advance for that future procedures!! At this point I went in to inquire what's this funny business and they were quick to refund the £44.20. Even if future procedures are needed, they had no right to book my wife in for private procedures as she went in as an NHS patient. The dentist himself has not been clear about the future procedures nor has he explained to my wife the observations. All in all, a terrible experience and we will not be going to them again.
Dear Mr Bandara,
We are sorry to hear about the confusion regarding your wife's treatment at the practice.
I can confirm your wife attended as an NHS patient, she required 2 fillings and was quoted the NHS fee for a Band 2 which is £70.70 including the check up. It was made clear this would be for both fillings but on the NHS would be amalgam (silver) fillings as they were in back teeth. The fee of £70.70 is then taken (£25.80 for the new patient exam she had and £44.90 in advance for her 2 fillings). This was indicated on her NHS estimate form and as the NHS recommends for all patients requiring band 2 or 3 treatments. This is to minimise patients failing to attend future appointments. I can confirm this is standard practice for all NHS patients at the practice. You will note on your NHS estimate form there is a whole section on private fees. Even though this is an NHS form it still has this section for completeness, so that patients are quoted for all options whether NHS or private as this is a clinical necessity so patients can make an informed decision and provide consent. I'm sure you can imagine how upset a patient would be if they were given an NHS 'silver' filling and not even offered the option to have them white! It was noted your wife had all white fillings on her back teeth (which she had abroad) and we went to great lengths to make sure she understood that if she wanted these two fillings done in composite (white fillings) they would be £180 each IF she chose to have these and she could let us know at her next appointment once she had time to think about it. This was simply quoted on the estimate form for completeness as we are required to do so, so she had all the choices and costs explained. Finally, as you rightly said we promptly refunded the £44.90 as you had indicated you no longer wanted her to have the treatment at the practice. I hope you can appreciate that. I wish to stress your wife was never booked in for a 'private' procedure but simply a filling appointment which on the day she could decide whether she wanted the white or silver fillings and would simply have paid the difference of what she had pre paid for her NHS fillings. This is a gold standard as it allows patients the time to consider their options, ask questions and make an informed choice. I am sorry that this has been lost in communication in this case. I note that you have decided to not allow your wife to proceed here with her treatment. This is ofcourse your right to withhold consent hence why you were given a refund. However, I would urge you toseek treatment for her as soon as possible as these fillings do require treatment and if left for too long, where ever you go, private or NHS, we would not wish her to have severe pain or discomfort if ignored. We are sorry we were not able to meet your expectations on this occasion but wish you both the best with your future dental care. If you require any further information please feel free to contact us on 0116 2771654 and ask to speak to Hayley the practice manager.
Yours sincerely,
Blaby Dental
Positive experience: Great dental care. Shame the receptionists look down at you if you are an NHS patient.
Dear Yogesh,
Thank you for your review. I am pleased the care you received was good but am disappointed by your experience with reception. Ofcourse we apologise that you were made to feel this way. We pride our selves on the highest level of customer care for all our patients, NHS or private. If we fell short on this occasion that is regrettable. Please contact the practice on 0116 2771654 and ask to speak to Hayley the practice manager who can look into this matter in detail.
Yours sincerely,
Blaby Dental
Negative experience: I recently sent an enquiry on their website and no one got back to me, I phoned to speak to them instead a week later and the receptionist was not helpful. She more or less she didn’t know if anyone had seen my email because it’s not her job, she paused for ages mid conversation so I assume she was distracted with something and overall left me wishing someone else had picked up my call. I had a tooth repair here in 2022 and it was great service but I have also had a night guard in 2023 and had to go back twice because it didn’t fit correctly and was miss quoted over email the price of the service. Overall I’d say my experience had been mixed and I’d say there a better dentists if you’re paying private
Dear Kelly,
We are sorry to hear about your recent experience at Blaby Dental. Let us assure you we take all feedback seriously. We will look into your problem and get back to you on Monday. Hopefully we can resolve your problem quickly.

Fantastic experience: I have recently had implant treatment and I am delighted with the results. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Dr Sayeed and Catherine for their help and guidance. As a nervous patient, I really appreciated how Dr Sayeed took the time to fully explain the treatment, timescales and costs and how supportive and reassuring Catherine was, both before and after the implant surgery. Thank you also to Dr Samra for her care and advice both prior to and during the extraction procedure. My next appointment is with Gemma who, over the years, has trained me very well in managing my dental hygiene. Thank you to all at Blaby Dental Practice.
Thank you for your kind review Tracy. We are delighted you had such a positive experience with Dr Sayeed and your implant treatment. We look forward to welcoming you back again.

Fantastic experience: August 2023 I have just had an implant completed on a front tooth by Dr Sayeed and Catherine his nurse. They are both very kind and give you plenty of reassurance along the way, I’m so happy to be rid of the false tooth, and the new implant is a perfect match against my other teeth, you would never know the difference, I once again feel confident when I smile or when I eat, I can’t explain how much better I feel in myself for deciding to have that initial consultation. I have been using this practice for 13 years and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Thank you Dr Sayeed and Catherine. August 2022 I have been using this dental practice since 2010 for dental and regular hygiene work. The hygienist has become like a friend over the years definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else as I feel confident in the advice and treatment I receive, I now have to travel quite a long way to get there but it’s worth the travel time.
Dear Christine,
Thank you for your kind feedback regarding our hygienist and appreciate you travelling so far. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
Kind regards,
Blaby Dental

Fantastic experience: I cannot thank Jade and Jasmine from this practice enough for how they have helped me! As someone who has had bad dental experiences many times in the past I was put off going until things were as bad as they could be. These two have some of brightest, nicest and genuine personalities and will make you feel comfortable and ease any worries you may have. They can do any procedure painlessly (and I have had an array of them recently) with genuine care for how you are doing and are great at explaining the aftercare and answering any questions you have. Honestly can't recommend them enough especially if you have a fear of the dentist, thank you again guys!
Dear Josh,
Thank you for sharing your experience, we are glad Jade and Jasmine make you feel at ease. We look forward to seeing you again.
Best wishes,
Blaby Dental
Fantastic experience: I have just had my hygienist appointment with Gemma and Catherine. So gentle and patient and answered my many queries ( as I am an Invisalign patient ) They were so careful around my attachments and gave lots of advice to keep my teeth in the best health during my treatment.

Fantastic experience: Excellent dentists, I was able to join and move across my children from my old dentists which had removed me from their nhs patient list without my knowledge. I came here with a difficult extraction needed and also had a filling, the reception staff have been polite and friendly on every visit and the dentist was understanding that I was very nervous as I have a fear of dentist appointments. I was also easily able to park in the car park at the back and it’s quite a large practice inside.

Fantastic experience: I am a nervous patient, this stems back to childhood sadly so finding a good dentist is really important to me. Blaby Dental Practice have always been great and I have never been anything but happy (well as much as you can be on a dental visit).

So thank you for that I would totally recommend Blaby Dental Practice.

Fantastic experience: The best dental practise I have ever visited, if I could give 10 stars I would. Telephoned yesterday as saw they were taking on NHS patients. Offered an appointment the next day. Excellent car parking and a modern and well kept building upon arriving. Reception was most helpful during my new patient sign up and directed to wait upstairs. Seen promptly and this is the best dental experience I have had even though seen as an NHS patient. The dentist and nurse were well spoken, explained everything and more than helpful as well as considerate towards me. I loved above the seat the picture of the sky and flowers which I have never seen before. All the equipment was modern and clean and perfect in every way. They really did go above and beyond. I have no hesitation in saying this is by far the best dental trip I have ever had. Please visit this practice, you will never regret it and nor will your teeth! Looking forward to my next visit and I never thought I’d say that even travelling from across the city - its worth it!
Dear Andy,

Negative experience: Next time one of your customers calls ahead to cancel, make sure your RUDE receptionist mutes her conversation slagging your customer off with her associates. Shocking!. This company needs to do better. Loss of business. Get the basics right!
Dear Mr Grant,
Thank you for leaving your feedback and I would like to assure we take this matter very seriously. Firstly, we unreservedly apologise for the incident and any offence that may have been caused. Secondly, we would like to assure you that we pride ourselves on high levels of patient care even with being such a busy NHS practice and take all patient feedback, positive and negative to heart. Thirdly, in trying to investigate this matter further I could find no record of you having attended or made an appointment at the practice at any time. Perhaps you are using a different name for your review or you have the wrong practice. We would appreciate greatly if you could contact us on 0116 2771654 and ask to speak to Mandy our practice manager so we can fully get to the bottom of this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Blaby Dental
Fantastic experience: Wow , I cannot praise this dentist practice enough . Having not been to the dentist for many years and then getting a dreaded tough ache in the middle of the night . I woke up and tried to find an NHS dentist. After many disappointing phone calls to other dentists , I phoned Blaby Dental Practice. Not only were they taking new NHS patients they also offered me an appointment the same day !! Fantastic. . Just got home from seeing Dr Samira , and I cannot tell you how at ease she made me feel , I was so anxious about going , but I had nothing to worry about . Dr Samira explained everything and was so polite . I must also thank Catherine on the reception, again, very welcoming and polite . If my previous dentist had of been this friendly and understanding , I would have never left it as long as I did . I highly recommend Blaby Dentist Practice. Thank you
