Fantastic experience: My visit today was to see the Hygienist who was very helpful friendly and whilst doing her work noticed I had got a problem with one of my wisdom teeth. She advised me to book an appointment with my dentist, which I did -and as luck would have it, i managed getting an appointment to see my dentist in the same visit with just a short wait. Overall it was a very relaxed and pleasant experience and would highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Many thanks for a quick fix to my dental problem. Always been well satisfied by the care I receive at this practice.
Fantastic experience: Six monthly check and same for my wife. As always with Dr John McGuire " Sean" it was a pleasure to see him again. An absolute gentleman a wonderful dental surgeon. Meticulous in his examination, attention to detail, and explanations. A consummate professional in his field. Top man! PC & CC
Fantastic experience: My second appointment requiring a tooth extraction. Gareth put me at ease and was careful with the local anesthetic injections. I didn't feel the needle at all. The extraction was carried out with care and minimal force. I was given comprehensive instructions on care of the cavity. Hopefully when the anaesthesia wears off it won't be too painful. Happy with the work carried out.
Thank you so much for the informative review Gary, much appreciated
Fantastic experience: I always have a great experience here, the receptionists are lovely and the dentists are knowledgeable and gentle! I had my root canal done today by Dr Sean and it was the most comfortable, reassuring experience that I've had with a dentist by far (his assistant was lovely and helpful too). Very pleased and looking forward to finishing my treatment!

Fantastic experience: I haven’t been to a dentist in a long time and I was really worried about going. From the moment i entered Pontefract Dental Care everyone was so lovely. The ladies on reception were lovely to talk to and they helped me when I had a question. The dentist and the nurse who looked after me at my appointment were ever so lovely and made me feel at ease. I have chosen to stay with this dentist after the positive experience I had today. I’m really glad I found them.
Fantastic experience: Polly is Always very professional and puts you at ease.
Fantastic experience: All the staff are completely focused on giving a calm, knowledgeable and efficient service. The Practice location also allows easy, convenient access. Was a relaxed, enjoyable consultation.

Amy, the dental nurse Jessie and the receptionists are a credit to Pontefract Dental Care & are worth 5 plus stars ✨ . I would highly recommend this dental practice.
Fantastic experience: Amazing care, making sure every step is explained properly, ensuring peace of mind. Very professional and painstaking cosmetic work, done to a very high standard. I was very worried about how I would look/feel (isn't everyone?) after the initial work but I needn't have worried. 24 hours on I'm pain-free and the temporary front tooth looks like my own! Thank you Sean and the team.
Thank you for the lovely review Sandra! Exiting times, won’t be long until you are all finished :-)
Fantastic experience: Amy is always lovely, professional and made a huge difference to my teeth and teeth sensitivity. Would really recommend
Fantastic experience: First time at Pontefract Dental Care and I’m absolutely chuffed that I’ve found somewhere professional and friendly! This practice was recommended to me by a friend as my current dentist had changed owners. After today I’ve no regrets changing; the staff were amazing and wished I’d changed years ago. From the lady I spoke with on reception through to the care and service I received from the dental nurse and dentist (I think his name was Sean). Just so glad I’ve found a professional practice that I trust - Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Very good practice. Can’t fault them. Always thorough in their work and on top of their game. My dentist (Gareth) is especially nice, making me feel at ease, I always had a fear of dentist, not having pleasant experience in past , but ever since I have been coming here I don’t feel as anxious anymore. I mean, sure, prices are not the cheapest but their monthly plan and regular check ups means we can stay on top of my dental health and i have never had any major issues that required spending enormous amounts of money.
Fantastic experience: Friendly , efficient and all round as good as it gets.
Fantastic experience: A very professional team. The receptionists are first class never a problem always there to help. Dentists and technicians are very professional keeping you in touch with your procedures all the way. By far the best I have ever come in contact with.

Fantastic experience: Pontefract Dental Care is a brilliant practice. I can't recommend it highly enough. I went with an emergency. Staff were very friendly and Sean my dentist was amazing. Its a great place. If you live in this area I would highly recommend this practice. I have been going to the dentist for 50 years. It's the best practice I have ever been in.
