The Dental Health Centre: Reviews
Negative experience: If I could give this place 0 stars; I would. Got told I needed a few fillings, was told white composite wasn't on the NHS list, paid out over £700. First time I left, my teeth felt gritty where they werent polished after being fitted, in addition, one of them fell out two days later! Went back to get the tooth fixed and dentist told me nothing was wrong; despite me now being in a lot more pain than before I originally turn up here. Over £700 down the drain and my teeth feel more wrecked. AVOID AVOID AVOID!
Dear Kieran,
Thank you for reaching out to us at The Dental Health Centre, and we appreciate your understanding during this process.
We are pleased to hear that we could resolve your concerns and address the inconvenience you experienced during your visits. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we are glad that we were able to address the matter to your contentment.
We are continually striving to enhance our services and ensure that all our patients receive the best possible care. Your feedback has been valuable in identifying areas for improvement, and we are committed to learning from this experience.
Fantastic experience: Been going here for years and never had a bad experience. I recently had to wait over 7 months with no response from an NHS hospital in regards to a wisdom tooth removal referral. This practice helped me get it removed privately there when I couldnt cope with the pain anymore, and it was all done in 20 mins and such a smooth operation. I only wish Id asked sooner about it and saved myself a lot of discomfort!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant service from Dr Prakash Ahuja who did a fantastic job with my composite bonding today on my front teeth. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: First appointment with this dental practice today. Great service and brilliant with our kids. Very happy
Fantastic experience: We both had a hygienist appointment today with Ewa. She was covering for someone else. Very glad too as she was so very good. Patient,as I am such a nervous person. She explained everything,showed me where I should be concentrating on more. The cleaning, descaling and polishing were excellent. Talked about hygiene which we've never received before. Thank you Ewa. Sally and Stephen Harris
Fantastic experience: Had my first lot of treatment today at the Dental Health Centre with Dr K Ghauni, ( not sure if that is the correct spelling). And I have to say it was the best experience I have ever had in a dentist chair. Both Dr Ghauni and the dental nurse were so gentle, professional and caring and from someone who is really scared I think I have been cured of my worries. Thank you so much for the excellent work you carried out.
Fantastic experience: Such good Service again from Maryam .. She carried out my composite Bonding and once again did an amazing job I am over the moon with the results. Thank you very much.
Negative experience: Had a first appointment with these guys last week as an emergency, great and went as planned, given antibiotics and re booked in for a couple of days later to go with either a root canal or an extraction Came for an appointment, nothing, not even a look in the mouth, they didn’t even know why I booked in, nothing in the notes to say either was booked in, had a 5 minute chat about my pain and what to do next. Then got charged just for this!? I’m never coming again, will stick to my usual dentist
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We have investigated this matter and found that we have seen you as an emergency patient as you were referred by NHS111 service. You got emergency treatment and opted to see your own registered dentist for further treatment. You only got charged NHS Emergency charge of £27.40.
In your second visit you were explained about the cause of pain, treatment options and costs were discussed. You opted again to see your own dentist and were only charged NHS Band 1 charge of £27.40 as this was a completely different appointment and you wanted to further discuss treatment options and costs. We have tried to give a best possible service during your visits.
We always aim to provide the best possible care and clear communication for all our patients. I hope this clarifies your concerns.
Regards,
The Dental Health Centre
Fantastic experience: Iolanda and her assistant have done fantastic work putting veneers on my front teeth -very professional and kind throughout the procedure which was painless.Love my new teeth-thank you ladies.!
Fantastic experience: Hello!! Special thanks for all the staff at the Witham Dental Health Centre, and one particularly person EWA, my Hygienist!! I’am lost for words how she’s changed my life completely, I feel so much confident in myself, my looks and health has changed over night all because I can smile again!! Thank you so much Ewa you’re simply the best person for the Job, I strongly recommend Ewa for anyone who has to see the Hygienist for your treatment, kind regards Mr.A.Francke.
Fantastic experience: Love this dental surgery. Staff are really helpful and I really must praise Leslie the dental hygienist: in all my days of getting my teeth cleaned she is the best. Very friendly and I didn't feel a thing. I'm actually looking forward to my next clean. Thank you Leslie and all the team!
Positive experience: Had to go in for an emergency check on upper left molar. Staff were all lovely and polite, especially the dentist & assistant I saw. Had to bring my 2 y/o with me and she always gets scared going to the dentist even if the appointment isn’t for her. The dentist and his assistant were very helpful in keeping her calm, assuring her that I was fine. Once the appointment was finished, they let her see the xray of my teeth, and gave her a couple of stickers & a high five for “helping daddy to stay brave”. If I was local, I’d come here everytime. Only downside is there doesn’t seem to be any actual parking, so I had to park on the curb right outside which I’m not sure was legal on my part! (Hence why I’ve not put 5 stars)
Negative experience: Maryland bridge was done brilliantly and cost me £70, I was told by the dentist that if I had a extra work done privately (extraction and few fillings) they would do new bridge work on the NHS as mine are 26 years old. had the extraction done today and inquired about the bridges on the NHS to be told no it was £1k on private and it's wasn't an option on nhs at this practice.. so not only did the dentist miss sell me work I could of got done in the NHS dental practice ( just long wait) they then change the terms of contact... I asked if the next filling would be standard or a Root canal, he said he wasn't sure even though I had paid for X-rays... I wasn't told this till after I paid £330 and a £100 deposit for the next appointment... I paid for the work done and was refunded the deposit for the next appointment as I wasn't being taken for a ride any more. the reception stuff where very helpful and apologetic, stay away from this place they just try to up sell you and con you out of your money
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.
We would like to clarify that you were seen as an NHS Out of Hours emergency patient on a Saturday and are not a registered NHS patient at our practice. Following your initial visit, you expressed satisfaction with the care received and opted to continue treatment privately with one of our most experienced dentists.
A private examination was carried out with your full consent, including necessary radiographs, and the results were discussed in detail with you. We only proceeded with treatment that you agreed to after clearly explaining and confirming the associated costs. A detailed estimate for further treatment was also provided, for which a deposit was paid and an appointment scheduled.
We understand that you later chose not to proceed, and as a gesture of goodwill, your deposit was refunded in full immediately.
We always strive to provide transparent and ethical care, and we respectfully ask that our team and services are represented accurately in public forums. Should you wish to continue your dental care elsewhere, we wish you all the best.
Kind regards,
The Dental Health Centre
Fantastic experience: Only started here a few months ago but my dentist is very thorough, knowledgable and great at communicating. I used to hate going to the dentist but don’t fear it at all now. Highly recommend!
Negative experience: I did some product photography for this company at a reduced rate to help grow my new business. They scheduled for a shoot on a Saturday, paid the deposit, then changed the day to a Sunday, they were an hour late, they were requested to clear the remaining balance on the day of the shoot. I completed the task and requested the payment, I have sent reminders, and duplicate invoices, facebook messages, emails and texts. I still do not have the remaining balance. This is a bad paying company. I'm out of pocket, which is not fair.
Hi Kate, no company takes full payment upfront.A part deposit was paid before the job even started.
The job was not complete and you were informed that complete payment will be made once the full job is completed. Unfortunately we are quite disappointed with how Urban rush has dealt with their customers constantly pressuring to pay the whole amount upfront.
Negative experience: Been waiting 35 minutes for an appointment and got absolutely nothing , barely any dentists in the establishment and just overall dissapointing. If you need to be somewhere after the dentist i would stay away from coming here

Negative experience: Moved here from London and needed a Dentist, this was the only place accepting new patients. Worst dentist ever. They just want to take your money. Have found a much better dentist now in Dunmow. Worth the travel. After visiting here I had to go to Broomfield hospital with abscess due to there negligence. The dental assistant told the doctor I may have abscess, however the dentist said No and said it was normal after wisdom tooth extraction. After 2 weeks my face was double the size and was admitted to hospital for a week.

Fantastic experience: After many years of private dental treatment I found it necessary to look for a NHS dentist. I contacted the Dental Practice and was seen by an extremely kind and compassionate dentist within a week. She has accepted me onto her list and will carry out the treatment I need. She also gave me the confidence that I will be well looked after in the future. All of the staff I met were extremely friendly and polite. Thank you from a very nervous patient.
Thank your for your review and valuable feedback.

Fantastic experience: Dr Som has been amazing with helping my daughter trying to overcome her fear of the dentist. He has been very patient and always takes the time to talk to her and reassure her. Thank you very much!
Negative experience: Can’t put into words how awful this dentist practice is . Say one thing and another and they haven’t even done it , was meant to be referred over two months ago called up to chase them up about it and they haven’t even referred me for the treatment which is emergency treatment. Absolutely appalling. Tried to call them back regarding this and they just say call back in such hours I call back and I get the same response call back in such hours . Don’t bother going to this dentist
Fantastic experience: I have been with this dental practice for some years, and always found them professional and caring. I am extremely grateful for them seeing me two weeks ago when I walked in on a Monday morning with an emergency and no appointment and was seen. Thank you xx hope you like the cheese and fruit box

The team in reception are also super helpful Ilayda couldn't have been more helpful. Fab practice, with an amazing welcoming, caring and helpful team
Fantastic experience: I have complex health issues, including oral crohns disease, a loose tooth was extracted, as painless as I have ever experienced. The Dentist has gone out of his way to help me with my tooth and gums. This is my first visit, I am a nervous patient but What if you think is best for something I am not so nervous now!!
Negative experience: Absolutely disgusting treatment. This dental practice used to be owned and managed by a beautiful human. Now under new management! Beware everyone I paid for 2 private fillings, 1 fell out. It is warrantied for 1 year, refused to refill then fell out a month later, said it was a different tooth, It was not ! And refused to refill and infact cancelled me as a customer! So I can't go back to them if I have a problem with other one too ?? ! The last appointment was cancelled whilst I was in the car travelling to my appointment by him ! Beware !!
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We apologise for any frustration or inconvenience you have experienced.
According to our records, the tooth that recently lost its filling is different from the one we originally treated. We understand how this situation can be confusing and frustrating. To address your concerns, we offered you the option to see your original dentist who performed the initial filling, but you declined this offer.
If you change your mind about seeing your original dentist, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you for your complimentary review of The Dental Health Centre. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased to have been able to meet your expectations. We look forward to serving you again in the future.
Fantastic experience: Great service! Visted the clinic today with just a check-up booked in. I was greeted by friendly staff and following a small wait, I was seen by one of their dentist who advised that I needed a hygienist appointment and fillings. After checking calendars, he was able to get both of those extra items sorted straight away, avoiding me from making multiple trips to and from the dentist at a later date. Thanks to the flexibility and understanding of the staff, all three appointments were completed in an hour and a half on the same day.
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend this dental practice enough! Lovely and friendly staff and the dentist that I've seen a couple of times was so wonderful, and as an extremely nervous patient, that's saying something! My dentist even remembered me which was comforting also. Everyone really put me at ease and the practice feels calm and welcoming. If you're a nervous person, I would definitely recommend this dental practice!
Fantastic experience: For two years, am serach a dentist for my mother( Nadia )and everyone refused to register her under the pretext that there is no place for NHS.

My mother's doctor was excellent. She decided to love them so much and ruin everyone because of them

Negative experience: Hi I’m afraid of dentists I went few years without going in and needed multiple fillings and they said one of my teeth was filled by them but as I got feeling back I realised there was still a hole and said come back in 3 months for the next lot and now my tooth is cracked even more when it should of been filled

Fantastic experience: Like a lot of people- not a fan of going to the dentist, not much bothers me but I’m a nervous visitor when in a dental practice. Staff are amazing here. Very understanding and helped me relax, procedure was flawless and I’m happy that I am registered with the Dental Health Centre for peace of mind. Thank you.
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your review and feedback. It will keep us motivated to provide excellent service to all our clients
Fantastic experience: I would like to thank Dr Parkash Ahuja & his team for an excellent experience at his dental surgery. I’ve left it a couple of months just so as I could give a true account of the fantastic professional care that I experienced. I had 6 implants & 9 crowns in my the treatment. As mentioned I’ve waited to leave a review, I wanted to get used to whole experience of treatment. I feel great, my mouth is very comfortable and I now have great confidence while I’m eating. Socially I no longer feel awkward about smiling. I could continue with my praise but I’d just like to finish with a big thank you to Dr Parkash Ahuja & his wonderful team. I’m 74 years old but feel so much younger. Thanks again. Charles

I'd also like to thank the Hygienist, Reza, the results after just two visits were outstanding, this gentleman is a true professional that knows how to do his job. The whole team at The Dental Health Centre have been nothing but quality throughout my whole treatment
Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled that you're happy with your visits with us. Our team really appreciates your feedback and we look forward to seeing you again in future!
Fantastic experience: I recently had the absolute privilege of being treated by Dr. Anish Kothari at The Dental Health Centre in Witham, and I cannot emphasize enough how exceptional my experience was. As a 54-year-old man with an irrational and almost unbelievable fear of needles and dentists, I had managed to avoid any dental work for my entire life. However, last week, I found myself in excruciating pain that was nothing short of biblical, and I had no choice but to seek immediate dental attention. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, Dr. Anish put me at ease in a way that I never thought possible. He took the time to sit down with me and thoroughly explain the entire procedure before even touching any instruments. This level of transparency and compassion immediately began to alleviate my anxiety. During the extraction itself, Dr. Anish continued to put my comfort and peace of mind first. He assured me that if I ever felt uncomfortable or needed a break, he would stop the procedure immediately. This promise, coupled with his calm and professional demeanour, was a tremendous source of comfort throughout the entire process. My greatest fear was, of course, the dreaded needle. I had built up this moment in my mind as the ultimate terror, but Dr. Anish's expertise and skill in administering the anaesthesia turned out to be absolutely flawless. To my astonishment, I barely felt a thing – just a slight pressure. It was a moment of revelation for me, and I realized that with Dr. Anish's guidance and expertise, the seemingly impossible became entirely achievable. I cannot praise Dr. Anish Kothari and The Dental Health Centre enough. For someone like me who had never had a tooth extracted and had endured unbearable pain for far too long, meeting Dr. Anish was a true turning point. His unwavering dedication to patient care, his gentle approach, and his ability to quell my deepest fears are qualities that I will forever be grateful for. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Anish Kothari to anyone seeking dental care, especially those who, like me, harbour an irrational fear of the dentist's chair. Thanks to him and the outstanding staff at The Dental Health Centre, I can now face dental procedures with newfound confidence and without the crippling fear that once held me back. Thank you, Dr. Anish, for making the seemingly impossible possible and for providing me with much-needed relief and peace of mind. Just try this Dentist, I assure you, you will be surprised.
Thank you Paul for this feedback, we are so delighted at The Dental Health Centre to hear about your experience and for putting your trust in us. Dr. Anish had the following message: "Dear Paul, your glowing review really does mean a lot both professionally and personally. I must say, my appointment with you had to be a career highlight. You were extremely reluctant, we could say, to have dental treatment! But we worked through that and you were able to accept the treatment you needed. Your wife was great as well to be there and help us throughout the appointment." Your dental assistant Alekya also sends her regards. We look forward to seeing you again, and trust that your future experiences with us will be as good as your recent ones!

Fantastic experience: After my dentist at my local practice left halfway threw treatment and with no replacment I found this dentist 80 miles away from my home that was taking on NHS patients as there was literally no one closer. I was given a new patient appointment within 3 weeks and had that today. The dentist listened to all the issues I've had and tried to explain everything before he did it. He explained thus will be an ongoing process and even fitted me for dentures at my appointment today and gave me my 3 follow up appointments too. I left here feeling alot better than when I went in as previous experience has me quite anxious of the enviourment; I also didn't feel judged or looked down on at any point for my mouth having gotten this bad, which again is an experience I've had elsewhere.
Thank you very much for your kind words. It means a lot for all of us
Fantastic experience: After being on waiting lists in my local area for over a year for an NHS app managed to get an appointment with these with less than a weeks wait. Was seen 5 mins early and out within 15 mins after having X-ray and filling. The receptionist was kind and helpful and the dentist was lovely. As someone who has severe anxiety due to childhood trauma he made me feel as comfortable as he possibly could.
Thanks for taking the time to write such a glowing review! We appreciate you telling others about your great experience with our team here at The Dental Health Centre. We greatly appreciate all customer feedback.
Negative experience: The dentist and ladies at reception are nice but do not give you full care for your money. If your a NHS patient it clearly states for the first band you get a check up and full clean but with this dentist they want to send you to a hygienist and charge extra for the cleaning. All they care about is making that extra money.

Fantastic experience: The Dental Health Centre has been brilliant at tackling a broken front tooth post and some other issues that have arisen over time. I would recommend their services from personal experience, whether it be a simple filling, tooth removal or implant work. The team approach between the staff and dentists makes you feel looked after and able to smile again
Dear John,
It was a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for your wonderful review of The Dental Health Centre! We're thrilled that we could help you with your broken tooth and other dental issues. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're here to continue providing excellent care whenever you need it.
Negative experience: It is absolutely disgusting and disappointing. I only chose this place because it was the only one in the area taking new NHS patients. They only want money and don't care about patients' welfare. Last time, the dentist could not fit the crown and wanted me to pay for the expenses to send it back to the lab to get a new one. Even recommended white one to get more money out of me. I paid in full and did not get anything in return. The dentist was always late, a minimum of 30 minutes over the appointment time and one time even over one hour. I have never experienced something so bad as this. Stay away if you want to keep your teeth and money!
We value all feedback and are always sorry to hear about any negative experiences. For your case, the crown did not fit properly as you had lost the temporary and then not returned for 4 months to complete your treatment despite us trying to contact you multiple times to book you in, therefore the space for the crown had changed.
We strive to offer the very best experience to all of our patients, and this will help us improve. Please contact us on 01376 513107 so we can further discuss this and rectify the problem with no further charge.
Fantastic experience: I visited for the first time yesterday, being unable to find a dentist where we live since moving back to the area. The appointment was on time, the dentist very welcoming & polite. Although I was booked in for an initial checkup he treated a problem straight away & a troublesome wisdom tooth removed! Almost felt like an old fashioned, very good service. No pressure to have any unwanted treatment. An excellent experience. Thank you very much.
Thank you for the outstanding review! We are so grateful that people like you see just how hard we work to ensure every patient has a five-star experience like you did. Our mission is to provide the highest level of health care and the highest level of service possible. Thank you for your feedback. It brings us great joy to see our hard work paying off.
Fantastic experience: After recently joining the practice I was quoted for some dental treatment on a private basis but after investigation on the day of the treatment the dentist was actually able to do 75% of the work under the NHS charge bands, meaning that it cost me significantly less than expected. Great service!
Fantastic experience: My teenage son recently had to have root canal treatment and has received excellent care at this practice. Dr Prakash Ahuja was gentle and understanding when he realised how anxious my son was and managed the situation very well. I am very happy with our experience at this practice.
Fantastic experience: The best practice I have ever been to! Can not thank them enough. Very quick and painless visit I couldn’t believe it when I was told ,, all done’’, the skill of Dr. Meghana Oza and the teamwork between her and nurse Justyna is second to none.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! Like most 50+ who were butchered by the school dentist I’ve spent a lifetime fearing dentists! I’m not saying I run in dancing and singing, but my dentist is quiet, reassuring and so professional. I had an extraction recently and I can almost say it was a pleasant experience! So quick and painless! Very very professional and caring x
Positive experience: Hello Dr Marzbani, Hope you’re keeping well. Am sorry for taking so long to get back to you. Am so happy to give a positive feedback on my recent visit to your practice. It was timely, professional and courteous. Am also glad to inform you that my younger daughter just happily showed me a pair of upper molar set of teeth shooting out. Thanks ever so much Dr Justin Temuru

Fantastic experience: I have been visiting this dental practice, now led by Dr Prakash Ahuja, for over three years and have found the team of dentists, hygienists, dental nurses and receptionists to be kind, friendly, careful and skilled. They offer a personalised service with an emphasis on conservation rather than unnecessary, expensive treatments and provide both NHS and private treatment. Dr. Prakash Ahuja has done an excellent and careful restoration job with my own teeth and fully discussed the treatment options with me. Be prepared to wait if a previous patient requires extra time, but usually you do not have to wait long...I would certainly recommend the Dental Health Centre.
Negative experience: Had an appt booked 8 weeks in advance deposit was taken on booking. Day before appt received a courtesy call to confirm I would be attending which I confirmed. 2 hours before the appointment I received a call saying that the dentist was not taking new patients and the appointment was cancelled. I was also told that my deposit would not be refunded because the receptionist didn't have authorisation to do this.
Fantastic experience: Best dentist in witham!! Been with them for a couple of years now. I've used all the local dentists at some point or another as I've lived in witham most of my life! I would never go anywhere else again and highly recommend. I had Sarah do my tooth extraction and she was so good. I'm a very nervous patient due to some bad outcomes at other places, but she has over comed my fears. Also the gentlemen hygienist (the only one who can do numbing injections) I can't remember his name,but he is just amazing and so gentle ( I have gum disease hense sore gums) I now don't need numbing as he is so good!! I trust him 100% I won't use any other dentist or hygienist now, both for keeps Thank you guys
Negative experience: Terrible, wait times are shocking. Dentist turning up late for first day appointments.
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience. I’m normally very nervous going to the dentist. My dentist Dr. Prakash Ahuja and his assistant Natacha was amazing and made the experience so much nicer for me!!
Thank you for your review.We appreciate your valuable feedback and pleased to know that we have reached your expectations
Negative experience: We had an appointment at 9am. By 9:30am the dentist was still not even in the practice. We had to leave due to work commitments as we had no idea when she would be at work. Unfortunately a waste of time and quite unprofessional. I am unsure of the dentist's name however in future we ask that she informs the practice and patients she will be this late so their time is not wasted. I sadly can't speak for the rest of the dentists or practice, however on this occasion we left disappointed.
Fantastic experience: I've been with Dr Marzbani as a patient for about 10 years. He has always been kind and attentive to my dental needs. Thoroughly recommended.
Thank you for your review.We appreciate your valuable feedback and pleased to know that we have reached your expectations

Fantastic experience: Dr Marzbani is by far one of the best dentists I have had. He is kind and patient, makes you feel at ease and is amazing at what he does. I am very happy with his services and I would definitely recommend! All other staff is also very nice and friendly.
Thank you for your review.We appreciate your valuable feedback and pleased to know that we have reached your expectations
Fantastic experience: Mr Marzbani dealt with an issue swiftly, his patient customer service and attention was excellent and greatly appreciated. Mrs Quinn
Fantastic experience: We have been using this dentist for approx 15 years. They are amazing. The staff are always helpful and friendly. Our dentist is wonderful, he is always welcoming and makes you feel at ease. My children have been visiting this dentist since they were young they are now 20 and 17. He has always made them feel very relaxed and comfortable. I would highly recommend this dental practice.
Positive experience: I’m not a fan of dental visits i find them slightly traumatic (because i know it’s going to hurt) but finding a dentist that automatically sets you at ease with his banter and the staff there are always professional, polite, courteous and genuinely pleasant people has made the experience a lot easier, very glad i’ve found this one and i’ll totally recommend to everyone.
Fantastic experience: I took my 5yr old daughter in with a broken tooth and the gentleman was amazing, he made her feel comfortable and constantly talked to her throughout the procedure. She came away excited and feeling brave. Thank you for your high level of service. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone.
