This is my dentist and I have always been very happy with their service. It is both a private…read morepractice and also offers treatment to NHS patients. As far as I know, they are still taking on new NHS patients, unlike many other practices. I have always found the staff to be very professional on the desk, whether on the telephone or in person and the dentists are very good, especially with nervous patients like me! They offer sedation for those who require it. There is plenty of parking at the front of the surgery, although this is shared with some other shops, but I have never not been able to find a space.

Osborne Dental Practice is fantastic!!…read more If you're anything like me you get sweaty palms and clench your teeth just thinking about a trip to the dentist! I attended the same family dentist well into my 20's so had just about begun to tolerate visits - a mandatory chocolate doughnut afterwards (which my parents bribed me with during my childhood years) seemed to help. Then I moved to Newcastle and it seemed a tad excessive travelling 140 miles and I would use it as an excuse not to go. Osborne Dental Practice obviously has lots of experience dealing with 'awkward' patients like me who cry when they are told they need any form of treatment .They even ask about your anxiety levels on the registration form! Dr Dhanoya has literally changed my perception of and experience of dentists and I would recommend his care to anyone. In addition to check ups, hygienist appointments and an unfortunate root canal I even opted for voluntary Invisalign braces last year as I felt so comfortable. All the staff are polite and professional. They are very flexible with their appointment times outside of conventional working hours but you can be waiting a while to get an appointment. They offer sedation for nervous patients like me (bonus as you get to feel rather merry after treatment). The practice plan is also a good idea if you are wanting treatments as you get a discount. My only grumble would be that looking after your teeth can be expensive.....but I guess a smile is worth a million dollars as they say!

Situated in the shadow of Hexham Abbey, the Abbey Dental Practice is one of the most friendliest…read moredental surgeries I've ever been to. I've always been OK with going to the dentist myself, but their calm demeanour would be very reassuring to those who are not as keen with someone proggling around their gnashers with sharp implements. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, I've never had any troubles in getting an appointment at a convenient time, given they're open from 0800 each morning as well as on Saturdays. So if you're looking for a new dentist in the Hexham area, you can't go wrong with Abbey Dental. Now, rinse and spit, and we'll see you in six months.

After a short initial appointment to diagnose the issues, the following appointments were booked in and were completed in a professional manner. The facilities are clean and well maintained, however the decor could do with some updating. But then again, you don't go to a dentist to appreciate the wallpaper! I would absolutely recommend this practice, the text reminder service is also a life saver, and all of the staff are friendly and helpful.

As such I felt like I deserved first class service seen as I was shelling out so much money and westmount dental surgery has it all. The whole place is dedicated to the patient and thats how it should be. And the range of treatments is just marvellous. Couldn't ask for more.

Before meeting the team at Guidepost Dental Practice I had a huge phobia about visiting the…read moredentist.This had resulted from a bad experience when I was younger.Due to this my teeth were in terrible condition. I eventually booked an appointment with Richard as the pain became unbearable. The team at Guidepost have transformed how I feel about going to the Dentist this has taken alot of paitience and understanding from Richard and Holly. Due to the poor state of my teeth I required some "scary" dental procedures but I had nothing to worry about. I have felt no pain and the pre and post aftercare was amazing. I cannot recommend this dental practice enough. In December I get married and I never thought I would be able to smile confidentally on my day. However, due to Richard and his amazing dentistry this is going to be a dream come true. From the fantastic receptionist Emma who kindly reminds me when I have an appointment to the support staff around Richard inparticular Holly who knew when I needed a hand to hold and lastly to the fantastic way Richard has put confidence back into the way I feel about going to the dentist. I would highly reccommend this friendly, family led dentist to anyone who wants an amazing service and an amazing smile. Sarah Shirley

When I moved into Blyth all was well, I registered my children with Vines and also registered myself on the offchance I would need to be seen. The inevitable happened and I had an abcess the size of a baby whale in my mouth, I went to Vines shaking like a leaf and tears streaming down my face this was caused just by the thought of having to see a dentist!!! ... I saw Mr Hall who works there, he is amazing, never hurt me at all and talked me the whole way through the process making me aware of what he was doing and what I might or might not feel throughout! Since then I have even been back for more work, and I am due to go for a checkup next month! I am amazed I feel so relaxed and have never found a dentist who was so gentle and didn't hurt til I registered with Vines!
