Fantastic experience: Thanx to James for a quick amazing new denture awesome
Hi Derek, thank you for your kind review. We are glad to hear you are happy with your new denture- James will be thrilled to know that you are so pleased with the result. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and look forward to seeing you at the practice again soon. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Brandlesholme Dentistry enough. After discovering i had been removed from the list of my NHS dentist after covid, where I had been a patient since a child (over 30yrs) I began the search for a new dentist and BD was recommended. The treatment I've received each and every time has been superb. The difference between them and my previous surgery is enormous. I feel very lucky to have Michael as my dentist - clearly very experienced, knowledgeable, with a very professional and welcoming manner. He puts you completely at ease. Many of my family and friends are now patients, and have all shared the same experiences.
Hi Donna, thank you for your feedback. We are so thrilled that you chose to join us here at Brandlesholme Dentistry. It's great to hear that your experience with us- and with Michael in particular- has been so positive. It also means a great deal to us that you have recommended us to your family and friends. We look forward to continuing to care for you all. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I’ve had an ongoing issue with toothache the last couple of months & had a treatment plan completed with Imogen. She’s a great dentist, who’s extremely skilled & compassionate. She explained all my options clearly & allowed me to make an informed decision. I’ve been a patient at this practice for many years & have found all the staff to be friendly & helpful. They try very hard to accommodate you if urgent treatment is needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Hi Michelle, thank you so much for your kind and detailed feedback. We are delighted to hear that Imogen was able to help you feel confident and supported throughout your treatment. It means a lot to us that you have trusted our practice now for many years and are very grateful for your recommendation. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to the whole team. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I recently finished undertaking Invisalign with Dr Imogen. I would definitely recommend the service and she made me feel comfortable and informed throughout the whole process
Hi Emma, thank you for your kind review. It's great to hear you had such a positive experience with Imogen throughout your Invisalign journey. Feeling comfortable and informed is exactly what we aim for so it's wonderful to know that came through. We hope you are loving your new smile and look forward to seeing you soon. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Called with an 8 year old who was severely traumatised at a previous dentist.m, but who had been in pain. The dentist we saw was so good with him, and they fitted him in within the hour. He’s bow happily playing at the park across the road and even said ‘it wasn’t as bad as the last one’ which is high praise grom a child who told me he’d rather eat dog poo than go to the dentist on the way there.
Hi Holly, thank you so much for sharing this! We are so pleased that we could help your son, after such a difficult past experience. It's incredibly rewarding to know he left feeling more at ease. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need anything in the future and we look forward to seeing him soon. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I am someone who is extremely nervous of going to the dentist but I was made to feel so calm here. Everything is explained and they really care for your welfare. Definitely a far cry from previous experiences I have had elsewhere. Very impressed.
Hi Hannah, thank you for your kind words. We completely understand how daunting a dental visit can be, and we are glad to hear that you felt calm and well cared for during your time here with us. We look forward to seeing you again and continuing to provide the highest level of care. Many thanks, The Brandlesholme Dentistry Team.
Negative experience: Starting to get a little frustrated with appointments being cancelled both dentist and hygienist. Then having to fight to get an appointment close to the same date and not a further 2 months down the line. I’m on payment plan and last time an appointment was cancelled they tried offering me both my yearly check-ups a month apart from each other.
Hi Adam, we are very sorry to hear you have had some appointments cancelled and have then been having some trouble with remaking them. We are constantly trying to improve our patient experiences as much as possible and thank you for your feedback. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Implant finished, excellent service. Really happy with the end result and process!
Hi Lauren, thank you for your kind review. We are pleased to hear you had a great experience during your implant treatment with Rahim. We look forward to seeing you at the practice again soon.
Positive experience: Good response
Dear Stephen,
Many thanks for taking the time to leave this review. Obviously I am very disappointed by your comments and I will be investigating this fully tomorrow when the practice reopens. I will of course come back to you as soon as I have investigated.
Best wishes
Michael Fern (owner).
Fantastic experience: Rebecca at Brandlesome dentistry is by far the best dentist I have ever been to. She has been so thorough in checking my teeth and very quick to book me in to fix the issues, she is very friendly and really explains the process thoroughly. Really down to earth lady who makes you feel at ease. Thank you so much! I must also add my 8 year old autistic child has been seeing Hafsah for a while now and she’s very gentle and kind which has really eased my child into coming to the dentist. The stickers off the reception staff (who are also very kind to her) are a big hit! All the staff are lovely and couldn’t do enough for you. Thank you for all of your hard work!
Hi Joanne, thank you so much for your lovely review. It is great to hear you had such a good experience here at the practice.
Fantastic experience: After 60 plus years of being petrified of dentist particularly tooth extraction this surgery have broken my fear can’t praise the staff enough no more being scared thank you x
Hi Joanne, thank you for your lovely review. It is really nice to hear we have helped you overcome your fear of the dentist. It is always a pleasure to see you at the practice. We look forward to seeing again soon.
Fantastic experience: My first experience at this dentist was second to none. Its such a pleasure to be greeted by all the staff who are just so welcoming. Ten out of ten . Thank you
Thank you very much for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you had such a great experience from all the staff here at the practice. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Mike (Dentist)& Cindy (Hygienist) are most caring and professional people you could wish to be treated by. Put patient at ease and makes the whole experience manageable.. thanks to you both.
Hi Philip, we are pleased to hear you had such a great experience with Mike and Cindy recently. We will ensure your feedback is passed on and look forward to seeing you again in the future. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I must say this is the most amazing dental practice I have visited. I would recommend them to anyone especially if your a little nervous like myself about dental visits. All staff are incredibly understanding throughout the visit. So polite and considerate to all patient needs. Would rate higher if I could 10/10
Hi Luke, thank you very much for your lovely review from your recent visit. It is always great to get feedback on our patient experiences. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.

Hi David, thank you so much for your feedback on your recent visit. We are glad to hear you had a good experience. It's always a pleasure to see you at the practice. Thank you, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: Hygienist Lisa was lovely and so friendly, I had a new Dentist called Imogen who i havent seen before who was also very friendly making my Dentist trip a more pleasant trip. I've found the receptionists to be very lovely also
Hi Julie, thank you for your feedback. We will make sure this is passed on to Lisa and Imogen. It is always a pleasure to see you at the practice. Many thanks, Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I cannot thank everybody enough for the excellent care I received yesterday with my awkward tooth extraction. Nothing was too much trouble! Much appreciated
Fantastic experience: Imogen did a cracking job with my Invisalign. No discomfort at all! Would 100% recommend Imogen to anyone thinking of getting Invisalign!
Negative experience: My old dentist moved offices, so I was a new patient at Brandleshome. The staff were friendly and polite, but unfortunately that doesn't get the job done. Usually I only need 1 injection when it comes to anesthetics, but after 2 injections during a filling, and I was still in quite a bit of pain. Eventually, the dentist asked me if I could soldier through as we were almost done... honestly, I became quite wary of dentists since that experience. After that, I noticed that my gum was frequently irritated between the gap where the filling was done, and my healthy tooth. My new dentists (elsewhere), has informed me that the filling had CAUSED bacteria to accumulate, and needed to be redone. In other words, I suffered through the pain for nothing, and even paid for it... My new dentist has done the job without any issues, and surprise, surprise - needed only 1 injection. Overall, I had practically spent £300 for a filling in a single tooth. Ridiculous. Thank you for nothing, guys!
Positive experience: Friendly, supportive staff.
Fantastic experience: Excellent, staff are very professional
Fantastic experience: The staff are always good and polite will see you all on Thursday
Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend this dentistry enough. All the staff are so kind and polite making you feel at ease as soon as you arrive. I had my wisdom teeth removed and I couldn't believe how quick and pain free the whole process was. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Caring and friendly staff always. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I had 2 fillings replaced and it was done efficiently. I was treated well all through.from the reception onwards. I have always found Brandlesholme Dentistry ery professional.

Fantastic experience: The best dentist in the country (and I've tried a lot) Always a friendly smile when I arrive from the staff on the desk and an incredibly patient and kind approach by Matthew the dentist. I've been missing out all these years on how a dentist visit SHOULD be. Brilliant!

Fantastic experience: All the staff here are wonderful & have helped me through my overcome my fear of the dentist.
Fantastic experience: Friendly, lots of patience with me, made me feel very comfortable
Fantastic experience: Wonderful practice, cannot recommend highly enough. My dental needs are quite complex and ongoing, requiring both natural teeth and denture attention. Matt, my dentist, and James, the denture guru (as I call him) work so efficiently in tandem, to ensure the end result is the best it can be. I had an extraction today, which was completely pain and anxiety free, and James completed the necessary denture addition immediately. Fantastic in every way and my sincere thanks to them and all the team.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly efficient dentist puts you at ease
Fantastic experience: Excellent service and I felt Very comfortable with no pain
Fantastic experience: Great dentist and hygienist. Give very good advice. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Excellent and very friendly
Positive experience: Everybody in the dentist is very friendly, good service. My general check ups and my hygienist appointments are always separate though which isn't ideal having to book half a day off work 4 times a year for the dentist. There's always a lot of forms to fill out every time I go also. Overall a good experience for a dentist.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, nice practice really can't fault. Recommend to anyone local
Positive experience: Appointment was fine. Staff are lovely. However, the noise was horrendous due to alterations on the building. Can't be helped but not good.
Fantastic experience: Very professional and proficient Dentist. They take the time to explain what is involved in the procedure and make you feel relaxed and comfortable.
Fantastic experience: As far as going to see a dentist goes it's great
Fantastic experience: My dentist was Ben who was extremely professional and did a great job extracting my back tooth. Totally painless.
Thank you for the review, hope you are keeping well
Fantastic experience: Went to see the hygienist today and she was lovely. Gave ma a couple of pointers which I didn't know. I have.really sensitive teeth but she was gentle but thorough. Keep up the good work .
Fantastic experience: Great service as always
Fantastic experience: Ben the new NHS dentist was very nice & friendly and carried out a thorough examination without pain.
Positive experience: I have always been very pleased with the treatment I've received from the dentist and hygienist. They have always been very respectful, caring and thorough. However, today I've just received yet another cancellation of an appointment in a few days time. I have had quite a number of cancellations in the past and it now seems that the appointments are as likely to be cancelled as not! My husband has also had quite a few cancellations! It has now got very annoying! I like to think I'm a reasonable person, and I understand that sometimesdentists can be ill, or other unforseen events can mean an appointment has to be re arrange, but comparing my experience with other appointments i make it is a far more frequent occurrence at your practice. For this reason I've given 4 stars rather than 5.
Fantastic experience: First time there, got a few more appointments to go but so far so good. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: The people are always friendly and kind
Fantastic experience: I couldn't be more impressed with the professionalism and. care available here. I have discovered a dental surgery that seems to care about its patients and takes pride in offering an excellent service. Matthew is thorough, talks everything through. . Could not recommend highly enough
Thank you for the lovely review Lynda. I'm really pleased that you had a good experience here.
Fantastic experience: Excellent
Fantastic experience: The hygienist was lovely and friendly. All the staff go the extra mile.
Fantastic experience: The whole set up is very professional. My dentist, Mathew, in particular is kind, patient and keeps you fully informed about what is going on. Couldn't recommend him more highly.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant, thank you so much James you made me feel relaxed and feeling a lot better
Fantastic experience: Very good
Fantastic experience: Brilliant, helpful caring seems a happy place to work, great experience for a patient too
Fantastic experience: Went for a check-up Everything was Fine
Fantastic experience: Great dentist, caring and professional and have really assisted in getting my teeth in to a much better place, considering the previous dentist I had. Couldn't ask for more and the ongoing treatment, support and advice is greatly appreciated. Cheers guys!
Thank you for the review Mike. Hope you are well. :)
Fantastic experience: A very pleasant appointment with a hygenist who was both friendly, thorough and professional.
Fantastic experience: Excellent as always
Fantastic experience: Im an extremely nervous patient and had Cindy for the first time. She made me feel comfortable straight away, really lovely lady, so professional. I actually didnt feel a thing during my filling. Such a lovely, friendly practice
Positive experience: The reception staff are really friendly and helpful and the care I've received has always been good but the dentists and hygienists seem to change a lot so you can often feel like you are starting again. Just as you build a relationship with one they leave which isn't great if you are nervous about attending the dentist.
Fantastic experience: I have just had a badly broken tooth extracted at Brandlesholme Dentistry. James explained the procedure to me in detail before extracting the tooth. Everything went as expected and I didn't feel a thing. Thank you very much to James and the excellent dental nurse (sorry, I don't know her name).
Fantastic experience: After having pevious appointments with the hygienist I wasn't looking forward to this visit was a better experience, booked again to return in 3months
Fantastic experience: Excellent service with an emergency appt with Matt, first dentist I have ever been to who makes me feel as relaxed as it is possible to in a dentist chair !
Fantastic experience: 5 star service, I couldn't ask for any more. Matt has always been so welcoming and helpful throughout my treatment and I love how my teeth look now! Thank you Matt! :)
Fantastic experience: It was brilliant - as always. Brandlesholme is fantastic.
Thank you Julie :)
Fantastic experience: As a 60+ old patient I am still affected by dreadful dental experiences as a child. Matt the dentist I have seen is excellent , I never felt anything even at point of injecting , he is patient and kind . Just a shame there is now no access to NHS dentist but that isn’t the dentists fault
Fantastic experience: All members of staff at Brandlesholme Dentistry are very efficient, helpful & friendly. Michael my dentist, always puts you at your ease. Any dentistry work he has undertaken is thorough, painless and necessary. He has seen me a few times at a moments notice if I have had an emergency. Most satisfactory. Thank You.

Fantastic experience: Having an implant was new to me so I wasn't sure what to expect. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent and pain free and I now have a perfect implant. Thanks again Brandlesholme Dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I would just like to thank Matt and all the staff for putting at ease and giving me the confidence to keep me returning for my treatment (it's something I never thought I would do!)

Fantastic experience: Dentist Matt takes time to listen, he always explains what he’s about to do, and asks me if that’s okay. He is the most reassuring, conscientious health care professional with a kind heart that I ever met. I feel confident attending appointments at Brandlesholme Dentistry. The dental nurses are well trained, friendly and conduct a professional manner. Thank you for a calming positive experience. Regards Angela
Thank you for the lovely review
Fantastic experience: Never felt comfortable at a dentist until I went to Brandlesholme Dentistry. Matt always makes sure I'm OK and gives me the option to stop at any time. Would recommend to anyone especially if you are a nervous dental patient!
Thank you for this review. I will make sure Matt sees this too :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service
Thank you Sally
Fantastic experience: So happy with my Invisalign experience at Brandlesholme Dentistry. Matt was brilliant from the start to finish - super friendly, knowledgable, reassuring and always wanted to make sure I was comfortable and understood the whole process/ what was going on/ what the next step was. Something I was worried about was the price and any hidden costs but everything was explained and transparent to me from my initial consultation onwards, no hidden costs or surprise instalments further down the line which I really appreciated. I’m so happy with my teeth, Matt really listened to me and what I wanted out of my Invisalign/ composite bonding experience. Also thanks to Danielle who did my scans and I saw throughout my trips, so friendly and lovely :) and all the other staff! Overall I couldn’t recommend enough - thanks so much!
Thank you for this review Rebecca. I'm really pleased you are so happy with your new smile. I will pass this onto Matt and Danielle. Take care
Fantastic experience: Hate the thought of going but the way you are treated makes you think "what`s all the fuss" Thank you.
Thank you for this review
Fantastic experience: I 100% recommend Brandleshole Dentistry , I have a fear of dentists and Matt has helped me through my fears and anxiety he has been so supportive, he has put the smile back on my face after many years of not being able to smile because of my teeth and all the staff there are so polite and helpful , I will never go to another dentist this dentist is the best
Thank you for the lovely review Sarah, I will make sure Matt sees this
Fantastic experience: Good professional service
