I made an appointment with B Dental for a check-up due to a great toothache on February 22nd 2022…read moreand got received by Dr Ryan for a check-up. During the appointment, Dr Ryan inspected my teeth and took some scans where he could see a cavity in between my premolar and molar on the right bottom side but couldn't tell me what it was. I mentioned the really painful toothache and said that I needed to see a hygienist and a periodontist and that after the hygienist appointment, the pain would go away after 1 week or so and that I quote 'shouldn't loose sleep over it'. I asked for antibiotics and/or painkillers and was told this wouldn't be necessary. I was charged £109.50 for this appointment where I got nothing except from the referral to the hygienist and periodontist I got my appointment with the hygienist 2 days after and only managed to get an appointment with the periodontist for 1 month after (29th March). I had the appointment with the hygenist where she spent an hour cleaning my teeth, not mentioning anything and was charged £131 for this. The following week, the pain kept on intensifying and as I wasn't told anything, I kept on taking painkillers thinking that the pain would go away but every 4 hours, the pain could come back and up to my ear and down in my neck and back - it was becoming very difficult to sleep and the pain was insufferable. I called reception on 3rd of March to try and understand what could be done and if I could get an emergency appointment with the periodontist. Following my call, I was prescribed Amoxicillin and a fluoride toothpaste without context that I went to get right away. I called again 4 days after (7th March) having started the antibiotics as the pain wasn't going away and I was struggling to work at all and I needed to see a dentist right away. I was suggested to see Dr Ryan again but due to the poor diagnosis that I got during the first appointment, I refused and decided to visit another practice. I managed to get an appointment the next day to another practice where in the dentist did exactly the same as Dr Ryan, took some scan and examined my teeth - he found out that I had fractured my lower right premolar and that I had a cavity and an infection and that I needed my tooth to be taken out emergently. He also noticed that I had two cavities on my left upper molar and left bottom molar - something that both Dr Ryan or the hygienist at B Dental failed to let me know of or gave me the options to have fillings. In the end I had my two fillings and my tooth removed the next day and given Augmentin as Amoxicillin was apparently too weak for this type of infection. I paid £240 to B Dental for them not to be even capable of telling me that I had two cavities and a potential infection/facture of my tooth and I would like to be compensated as I had to spend another £150 on an emergency dentist appointment as I wasn't treated properly the first time.

Unfortunately I had a bad experience here in my opinion. I was referred by my NHS doctor for…read moreimplants but before starting the treatment I had toothache on the other side of my mouth. I tried to get an appointment with them for urgent treatment for this but they said they couldn't do 'general dentistry' and could only do the work that my NHS dentist had referred me for so please do be aware of this if you are an NHS referral. I then had to make the decision to cancel the implant work as I was looking for a dentist I could work with to get all the work I needed including dealing with issues other than the planned implant work. I had posted a more detailed review here but was forced to remove this as B Dental instructed lawyers against me to take this down. I was in my honest opinion very disappointed by this treatment and if I could have afforded to fight this and instruct lawyers to defend myself I would have done. Such a shame it turned out this way as the dentist was fantastic and I was so looking forward to getting the treatment.

I admit that as the daughter of an orthodontist I might be a little bit spoiled when it comes to my teeth, but at least I know they are clean and healthy. The only reason they don't have 5 stars is because I didn't feel like the cleaning was THAT thorough. Either my dentist at home is SUPER OCD and likes to pick on me about everything, or this dentist really didn't seem to care that I am having some pain in one of my teeth. OR she knew, and she just didn't want to tell me. But i was surprised, and it was brief, and it gave me the peace of mind I needed about my teeth. Now I know that i won't get in trouble the next time my dad see's my teeth.

In fact I prefer to travel the distance just for the excellent quality of care offered at Marian Lewis. I have never felt more comfortable in a dentist's chair. I've always been very anxious under the drill but I found myself falling asleep while the drill droned and carved my crown. What impresses me most is the extremely high level of professional care; the cutting edge technology the teams work with; their knowledge of new and innovative treatments not yet available in many UK dental facilities; and their genuine care for my personal well-being. The facility is clean, comfortable and comely - not your clinic-cum-NHS feel. Clients are often given small dental gifts to take away to help them maintain good post-treatment hygiene.

The only time I want to hear drilling noises is outside my house at 7am, and even then that's not a good thing.

Doctor Choudhry was also extremely considerate and competent - she successfully addressed a root canal issue, which was of particular concern for me.
