mydentist, Bridges Dental Centre, Weymouth: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I have been attending these dentists for a number of years. My most recent visit with Omar was for cosmetic reasons to make a small front tooth that disappears in photos, look more prominent. The tooth now looks correct and I can smile with confidence.
We are thrilled to hear that your recent cosmetic treatment with Omar has helped you smile with confidence and that the tooth now looks just right. Thank you for your continued trust in Bridges Dental Centre.
Kind Regards

Fantastic experience: I’ve never had a dentist as thorough and reassuring as Omar. He takes the time to clearly explain exactly what’s happening and why, which made me feel informed throughout the whole process. He’s also very personable - which helped calm my nerves so much! The dental nurse, Lucy, was brilliant as well. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made great conversation throughout. Together they made what could have been a stressful experience genuinely positive. I can’t recommend them highly enough!
Hi Meg. We appreciate your kind words about our team and are pleased you had such a positive experience with us. It's amazing to hear that Omar's thorough approach and clear explanations helped keep you informed throughout your treatment, and that his personable nature was able to calm your nerves during the process. We're also glad that Lucy made such a positive impression with her friendly demeanor, knowledge, and engaging conversation. Knowing that both Omar and Lucy worked together to transform what could have been a stressful experience into something genuinely positive means the world to us. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for recommending our practice so highly.

Fantastic experience: Today I had 8 teeth taken out by Omar. I just want to thank you and your assistant (sorry I forgot her name) for putting me at ease with your patience and understanding of what was a big ordeal for me. I’ve had to have lots of dental work over the years but I can honestly say he’s the best dentist I’ve had do work on my teeth. They talked to me and made sure I was at ease throughout the procedure for which I was very grateful. A big heartfelt thank you from me to the both of you.
Hi Darrin. We sincerely value your feedback and are grateful that you took the time to share your experience with us. We are absolutely pleased that Omar and our team provided excellent care during your procedure, especially knowing what a significant ordeal this was for you. It means the world to us to hear that Omar's patience and understanding, along with his assistant's support, helped put you at ease throughout the extraction of your 8 teeth. We understand that having extensive dental work can be overwhelming, and we're glad that you felt comfortable and well-cared for during such an important procedure.

Fantastic experience: I've visited the Bridges Dental Centre a few times recently and felt I must comment on the excellent treatment I have received. My Dental Surgeon Omar was exceptionally polite, friendly and thorough, detailing each aspect of what needed to be done in an easy to understand but professional way. He was ably assisted by Lucy who was much more friendly and helpful, both of them providing a relaxed and calming atmosphere. From the receptionist through to the Dental Team, thank you very much, I hope I don't see you again for a bit...!
Thanks for your positive feedback, Frank! We're delighted to hear that Omar provided exceptional care and took time to explain your treatment professionally, and that Lucy helped create a relaxed atmosphere. Your recognition of our entire team means a lot to us. We appreciate you sharing your experience.

Negative experience: Absolutely appalling service. I turned up on time for my appointment only to be told it had been moved the day before and I was informed. I corrected them and told them I had not been informed. They refused to see me. And they told me if I was going to get angry I could leave. No apology offered.
We are sorry to hear about the communication issue and treatment received. Please contact us at 01305 783062 to resolve this.
Kind regards

Hi Kay, we understand how people may be frightened of the attending the dentist. Its therefore important to us that our patients feel comfortable and reassured whilst in our care. It’s great to hear that your dentist communicated your treatment with you so well.

Fantastic experience: I've attended this practice for a number of years and have always been impressed by the professional and caring nature of all the staff. A recent diagnosis when a filling was advised was later dealt with by dentist Omar - who kept me fully-informed throughout the process. He was ably assisted by Minnie - and I was very surprised to hear she was still in training as they made a great team.
Thank you for your review. We're delighted our professional, caring staff impressed you throughout your years with us. It's wonderful that dentist Omar kept you fully informed during your recent filling procedure, and that he and Minnie worked so well together as a team.

I recently went in with a filling which fell out the receptionist Gemma was so kind helped me feel at ease as I was worried about money and affording to fix this I was in agony. I got a same day appointment with Ashwynn who I’ve been seeing for a few years now He’s always made me feel at ease and I always leave the surgery happy and relieved. I had a temp filling the same day and no longer in agony I can’t recommend this dental practice enough ! Thank you

Fantastic experience: Today I underwent a surgical removal of a tooth which had broken almost to the gum line...I am a very nervous patient and was really anxious about my procedure. Omar is my dentist with Lucy as his dental nurse...they are an amazing team. Omar was so understanding and explained everything to me and really made me feel so much better about everything, even though I was still very anxious his manner and the way he calmly did the procedure helped so much. Lucy was so lovely, she endured my very tight hand squeezing like a star and kept checking in with me along the way. I would 100% recommend the practice...Omar and Lucy must never leave! Thank you again, Helen (with the groovy 70s play list)
Hi Helen. We are so pleased to hear about your positive experience with our team. Your trust means everything to us. We're so glad that Omar and Lucy were able to provide you with such excellent care during your surgical tooth removal.

Negative experience: I have booked an appointment with them as I did have very good experience with MyDentist in Poole. But I would not recommend this one. Very expensive, although I have had an emergency appointment. Still the tooth is not fixed after 2 visits. Would not recommend it. Will be looking for other dentist in Weymouth. On the bright side the reception staff are very friendly.
We understand your concerns about the cost and treatment progress. We appreciate your feedback and take it seriously. Our goal is always to provide effective treatment, and we're sorry to hear your tooth is not yet fixed after two visits. Thank you for recognising our friendly reception staff; we're glad they provided a positive experience. We would like the opportunity to address your concerns and improve your overall experience. Please contact us at 01305 783062 to discuss your situation further and explore possible solutions.

Fantastic experience: Have used bridges dentist a couple of times recently and would like to give praise where it's due , we recently needed an appointment really fast due to severe pain , I spoke to caitlin who couldn't of been more helpful she got us seen really quick , she even followed up the appointment with a phone call to go over our next steps and give us options , she went above and beyond to help with finance our concerns and even getting our next appointment sorted , she really made a stressful time so much easier, so nice to finally have someone on the phone who is sympathetic, helpful and polite . Some who answer the phone could benefit from learning from her , Wouldn't hesitate to use bridges again due to this experience.

Negative experience: Had my December 2022 check up cancelled. Received a text two weeks later telling me I was overdue a check-up, and to phone them to book an appointment. After doing exactly as told, and spending 32 minutes on hold, I was then told there was no dentist available and they are not currently able to book appointments.
We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the time it takes to get an appointment at our practice. I would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Unfortunately, appointments are in extremely high demand at this time and our dentist’s diaries are fully booked. Please be assured we are working hard to increase our appointment availability and see our patients as soon as possible.

Negative experience: Called in March to book an appointment as I was in pain with wisdom teeth. Was told the soonest they had was November (!), gets to 2 days before an appointment I've waited 8 months for and they tell me they've cancelled it. Husband had booked holiday from work to look after the baby while I went. Now I have to wait another 3 weeks and try get up those stairs with a baby. Not even remotely sympathetic response from the staff.
Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the service provided to you by our practice and that your appointment was cancelled . We apologise for the inconvenience caused. Although we try to honour our appointments, current circumstances are meaning that there are occasions where we may regrettably have to cancel some appointments.

Negative experience: Awful service! Opening hours are shocking not working people friendly at all! 8 till 5 only. I guess benefit friendly only for people who don't have to work. Ide have paid private or NHS if I could have got an appointment to suit. Completly unhelpful I'm shocked to say the least.
Good Morning Chris

Negative experience: Waited 3bmonths orr an appointment letting them know I had broken teeth. Just found out my appointment was changed again also.... I've waited 3 months and now there not taking on NHS patients and I should just call 111... Disgusting how you can do that to someone who been asking for emergency treatment and you told him to wait and now you tell that sane person to just jog on...
Good Morning

Fantastic experience: I was not their patient but needed urgent treatment. My bridge of crowns had snapped due to a decayed tooth under the end crown. I called in because they were near to the car park I parked in. The receptionist was most helpfull and they were able to fit me in immediatly. Lucky I know. The dentist Ashwynn and his assistant were superb, he explaind everything and needed to extract a wisdom tooth. The whole procedure was efficient and pain free and as a private patient the cost was very reasonable. I shall definatly return when I need further treatment.
Thank you for your 5 star review. I have forwarded your feedback to the practice team who will very much appreciate your comments.

Fantastic experience: I'm very surprised at the reviews, I've found no problem with this dentist, they call to remind you of your appointment and when you come for your appointment the staff are lovely and always polite and a professional service. Many thanks.
Negative experience: 10 min to answer phone and rude receptionist! Lovely!
Negative experience: Absolutely disgraceful customer service from the Dentist. Showed no compassion whatsoever. After waiting 6 months for my appointment that had previously been cancelled three times, I was refused treatment due to out of date x-rays - which was due to three previous appointments being cancelled!!
Negative experience: Avoid Bad service, No respect for patients Appointments cancelled lot of time If you want to change appointment date, next appoint will be available in couple of months I would recommend do not go there for dental treatment. Find someone better than this.
