Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at 'mydentist' in Merthyr Tydfil. From the receptionist to the dentist and hygienist, everyone was friendly, helpful, and made me feel at ease. The team offered clear and practical advice, particularly attentive to the needs of an elderly patient. Their professionalism and kindness were evident throughout my visit, and I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Positive experience: On the whole very good, had one experience where the dentist was running really late and wouldn’t communicate with the receptionist. It was a toss up between an exam and starting medical treatment. This was dealt with very well by the practice manager, who calmed me down and slotted me in with a nice dentist. Am very grateful to her for this. Went back for more treatment and Both Danielle Dental nurse and Dentist Raffia were so empathy to my needs. I had an operation this week and they ensured my safety. The whole team are simply lovely and very efficient.
Dear Ms Davies-Tuthill,
Thank you for your feedback, this is very much appreciated. I am very pleased to hear that the Practice Manager was able to rectify your concerns.
Kind Regards
Patient Support Team
Negative experience: Poor practise. Staff don’t seem to have much patience with questions or queries. They also didn’t tell me about an 8 week ruling where if you book another appointment 8 weeks after your NHS appointment (even if it’s so agreed treatment) then it’s private only and not on NHS. I went private to another dentist and they said they made their own ruling on this because they only get paid once every 12months for an NHS patient not matter how many visits or what treatments been completed. So basically they introduce this ruling to get more money into their pockets. I wasn’t advised of this and found myself out of the “window” for NHS treatment and a much larger bill. Very poor dentist and the difference between my private appointment today elsewhere was a big jump.
We are sorry to receive your review and comments. I believe there has been a misunderstanding when you called the practice relating to the "8 week ruling" this is not the case, for any NHS course of treatment this must begin within 2-3 months of the dentist identifying the need for it. Should you not attend for this the treatment plan will be closed as it is assumed that you no longer wish to have this. In addition the longer it takes to begin the treatment further problems could be identified which then will lead to an updated examination or review being necessary and the original treatment plan being amended.
If you wish to discuss this further please contact the practice and speak with the Practice Manager who will be happy to go through this with you and any further questions you may have.
Kind regards,
Julie - mydentist Patient Services Team Leader

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Everything is so easy and straightforward and you feel at ease throughout the visit. The receptionist and all the dental staff were very friendly throughout the procedure.
Hi Mark, thank you so much for your 5 star review! Kind Regards mydentist Patient Support Team
Negative experience: The dentist and dental nurse were fab. The receptionist on the other hand was very obnoxious, loudly discussing patient costs with them in the waiting room. I knew how much three people had left to pay for their treatments. She told me “Make sure you tick the correct box as we will check and you will be fined”. The dentist advised I needed a private scrape and polish so when trying to book the appointment the receptionist refused to pre-book the appointment unless I paid the £59 on the day of booking which was 4 weeks before the appointment (Iv never paid for my treatment until the day of an appointment anywhere else) the other receptionist I used to see here when I was a private patient was so helpful and friendly. It’s a shame really as I was treated differently when I was a private patient than I was a NHS patient.
We are very sorry to hear that you have been unhappy with the service provided to you by our reception team. It is very important to us that our teams provide excellent customer service, therefore, it is extremely disappointing to hear that we may have failed on this occasion. I am sorry to hear your concerns regarding our upfront payment policy. This a mydentist wide policy and pre-payment has been standard practice at mydentist for several years. I apologise if this is the first time this has been applied at your practice.

Negative experience: Staff are lovely. But instead of saving teeth they rather take them out they give you very limited options. They just do the basic rather then doing what really needs to be done!! I would 100% say they have ruined my teeth. Appalling

Negative experience: I went here a few weeks ago , knocked the door to ask about dental treatment and the receptionist or who ever she was immediately said sorry we are not taking on NHS , i never actually stated I wanted NHS I was wanting private treatment, but before I had chance to say this she closed the door on me , just because someone looks how you say rough doesn't mean they want free treatment ,and I am aware that treatment for what I need would cost upto £500 , disappointed is a word below what should be put , dont judge a book by its cover
We are very sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with the services you received from our Practice. I would like to apologise for your experience and recommend that you contact the practice and ask to speak to the Practice Manager about your experience.

Negative experience: Paid almost £1200 for a brace to correct one tooth of my choice, yet over a year later and a dispute with the dentist, the brace did not work yet the dentist argued it did! Feel more conscience now than ever before about my teeth. Wish I had read reviews before spending all that money and shatter my confidence.

Fantastic experience: Never have I had a bad experience with them. Kind, courteous, and reassuring to me.
Fantastic experience: Really good dentist transferred from churchstreet to smiles friendly and polite I recommend it to anyone staff are really lovely and helpful to u
Fantastic experience: I am about half way threw my braces treatment at smiles and braces aren’t the best at comfort or good for the image but I bit the bullet at smiles and went ahead with This treatment ! And I’m glad I did as my teeth are already looking MUCH better in such a short time .. and i have to say all the people at smiles that I’ve met are lovely , My dentist Sharmila is always lovely towards me and the reception team are lovely . I would highly recommend to anyone x
Fantastic experience: Good staff service i recomment smiles dentist to anyone
Negative experience: Destroyed my tooth - Avoid of them. Their staff keep changing like a socks so You never have same dentist. Merthyr Tydfil
Negative experience: Keep away
Negative experience: My girl friend had a brace fitted, within 3 month 13 bits had fallen off it- some left bits of wire in her mouth which cut her and got infected. She was just fobbed off when she asked them to fix them. So she ended up paying another dentist to take them off-as she had such a bad experience with smiles in Merthyr. They refused to refund or help any further. Don't waste your money with these jokers.... They give a bad name to dentists. I don't understand how they can run a business with such bad service and such bad customer service.
Negative experience: Abysmal customer service, this is the worst dentist I have ever encountered our appointments in Feb were moved to May, then June, then October and now February next year. Complaints sent are completely ignored. Would not now touch them with a barge pole.
