Our whole family attends Church Street Dental Practice, and we feel incredibly lucky to have such a fantastic NHS dentist. Jonathan has been our dentist for several years, and we honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better. He’s professional, kind, and someone we completely trust with our dental care. Jonathan is brilliant with our kids too — always patient, reassuring, and great at making them feel comfortable.A huge thank you to Jonathan and the whole team at Church Street Dental Practice — your care and dedication are very much appreciated!

Recently had composite bonding done on my upper front teeth, as well as whitening beforehand. From the initial consultation up to the end result, the whole process was perfect.Jonny explained everything in great detail before and during every stage, as well as asking for my input to give me exactly what I was looking for.Would highly recommend to anyone. Also would like to thank Sophie on reception for sorting out my appointments and dealing with any query’s.

Ive been seeing Jonny for over 3 years now and hes the best dentist ive ever had. I just to quite literally cry every time I went to the dentist and I would avoid it like the plague. The first time I had my appointment there I did cry. But Jonny is so patient. He makes me feel safe and heard and never rushed.It means Im far more likely to keep regular checks in and get treatment when needed. The practice is beautiful and all the staff are always so welcoming.Would 100% recommend especially if you're a nervous patient

I usually see Elin Brooks for my checkups who is excellent. Following a recent X-ray I had to have a back tooth removed and Elin advised me to get a dental implant. She referred me to Scot Williamson also at the practise who is an expert in dental implants. The whole procedure went well. Scott is very knowledgeable and explained the whole process step by step. My treatment is now complete and I am very happy with my implant. Thank you to Scott and Ruth for their excellent work. A big thank you to Elin Brooks too, my regular dentist at the practise.

Would highly recommend Jonny for any dental work you’re thinking of getting done. He’s very knowledgable and is generally a really nice dentist! Absolutely love how my teeth have turned out. The practice is lovely and clean and every time I went in I was welcomed by Sophie and Brogan on reception who were really kind and helpful!

Being absolutely terrified of the dentists I was recommended Church Street and they did not disappoint. Everyone from the reception staff to the dental practitioners were absolutely incredible from the start. Such a chilled and calm environment with zero judgement.Big thanks to Anita who saw me for my 3 appointments in January and a special mention to Niamh today who was in assisting.If you have a fear of dentists or just want a great place to have your dental work done then look no further.

Just finished my appointment for a white filling with Sunny and Izzy. They put me completely at ease during the whole procedure and kept me informed throughout. I’m so pleased I opted for this as the end result is better than I expected!Sunny ensured the final result was as natural as possible to the original tooth.I’m back again next month and feel confident the results will be just as good.

Had an emergency dental appointment 3/4/24 to remove a wisdom today as an unregistered patient. Sunny and Izzy were first class immediately making me at ease and the removal of my tooth was totally painless. I am now a registered patient with Sunny. Thank you.

Sunny and Caitlin are amazing! Sunny as a dentist explains through every option available helping me feel 100% sure in my choice and Caitlin is just perfect in making me feel confident and helps rid of any nerves. My whole Invisalign experience has been well explained by them both, I couldn’t thank the church street team enough for all they’ve done for me. Anita and her nurse Susan have also been great in making me always feel welcomed and answering any dental related queries I have.

Excellent experience so far at the dentist, I have anxiety about dentists but at church street they are so helpful and reassuring. Donna Patterson is a superb practice manager and the reception staff are so welcoming and friendly. Couldn’t recommend the dentist more.

Laura Williams

10:31 30 Sep 24

Thank you so much for getting me in so quickly to be seen for my check up. Jonny is a brilliant dentist and explained everything clearly, Molly was great too! And Caitlin was great at talking me through the plans available! Thank you again!

I chose this dentist for composite bonding treatment and Invisalign and I’m so glad that I did. Everyone is so nice, and my dentist Anita, and Susan, couldn’t do enough for me. Going out of their way to make sure the treatment plan was complete in time for me leaving the county, just making everything so easy for me. And Anita did such an incredible job of my teeth, I would recommend anyone to go here. Thanks so much for looking after me

Have been seeing Anita and Susan at this practice for new dentures. They are a very happy,helpful,professional ladies. I am absolutely delighted with my new dentures which Anita did and was very painstaking and patient with the best fit and appearance. They are very natural looking and comfortable. I can smile with confidence. A HUGE THANK YOU.

Always brilliant and first class service from Dentist Jonny and Molly (on this 6 month check up, it was Rachel). Very informative regarding daily dental routine and tips for continuing good oral health.The receptionists always telephone prior to my appointment to confirm my attendance and are always professional. Today I was checked in by Susan and checked out by Sophie.A big 'Thank You' to all of you at Church Street Dental Practice for the welcome I get and the service I receive on each successive visit.Well done!Terry.

I'm a fairly new patient at the practice. I'm, unfortunately, a very nervous patient....thanks to school dentists in 1960's!! From day one Elin and Rachael have put me at ease and I've never been made to feel foolish for being scared....this means a great deal to me. The reception staff are lovely too....nothing seems to be a bother. Thank you all very much.

A huge Thank-you to Anita and Susan for making my experience amazing, I couldn’t of wished for a better team to go through this journey with me - I had Invisalign and whitening and composite bonding completed, and even though I did have an issue initially with my composite bonding, Anita put my mind completely at rest at my follow up appointment and I couldn’t be happier with my new smile! Every appointment Susan made me feel really comfortable and it has been the best dental experience I have ever had in my life

Toni Patterson

I went for a normal check up today with Sonny and Simran. Unfortunately I do suffer from dental anxiety after a bad experience at another dentist when I was younger. I can honestly say Sonny was the best dentist I've ever seen. Everything was explained fully and they were both kind and understanding with my nervousness. I think I dare say I'm no longer scared and so happy I've found a good helpful dentist and assistant. Thank you both. The lady on reception was welcoming aswell although I didn't catch her name.

Me and my husband had a regular check up today with Sunny. We both found him to be excellent and probably the best experience we’ve had visiting a dentist. He and the dental nurse (sorry we didn’t catch her name) were so friendly and discussed the treatments available to us both going forward. Five star treatment.

Great experience today at Church Street Dental Practice. Warm welcome from Anita and Caitlin. They carried out a veneer fit which I am very pleased with. Looks amazing. Perfect fit and colour. I would highly recommend.

After some terrifying experiences at previous dentists I had a lovely first experience at Church Street Dental Practice. The decor is so modern and stylish. The receptionist Brogan was warm and welcoming and both Anita and Susan were lovely throughout the whole appointment.

Came to Church street after seeing how amazing it looked on Instagram and I wasn’t disappointed the care you receive in there is next to non. I booked a consultation for teeth whitening with Anita she went through everything step by step made me feel so comfortable. Wouldn’t go anywhere else for my teeth ⭐️

Shannon Mcdonald

11:34 27 Jul 23

I have always been nervous of going to the dentist, but Anita was fantastic throughout my Invisalign treatment, everything was very thorough, explained well, and I love the results. Sophie (hygienist) is fantastic, caring and explains everything brilliantly, I was super worried about my last appointment but she managed to put my mind at ease quickly. The nurses working alongside the two are also fantastic.

I have recently joined this practice after being on a long waiting list. I’m a very nervous patient due to a bad experience at another practice when I was younger. I have to say from coming into the practice to leaving the experience was a positive one. Everyone is very welcoming and polite. The practice looks lovely inside , which helps to make you feel comfortable. I saw Anita and Sue on my visit and they made me feel at ease and and reassured knowing how nervous I was. Anita was a fantastic professional dentist , she talked me through what was happening before doing the treatment and done a great job without any pain from the needle . I’ve never had such a positive visit to a dentist in a long time. I know now for future visits I won’t be as nervous. Thanks again

I attended today for 2 fillings- as someone who hates going to any dentist I wasn’t looking forward to my visit however I have to say what a lovely bunch they are. I even booked a 6 month check up in as I won’t be afraid to go back now. Special shout out to Anita and Susan for looking after me- lovely ladies

Karina Armstrong

We are are new to this dentist as ours closed down and we are so pleased with church street. Our Dentist is Anita and sue is our dental nurse and they are brilliant. So friendly and caring. My daughters are nervous of certain procedures but Anita and sue made them feel so at ease and was very patient. Would definitely recommend

I knew one day I’d need A LOT of dental work doing and had no idea where to start with this. I finally bit the bullet around 6 months ago and got in touch with CSDP. Everything and everyone there has been amazing. I felt I couldn’t fully explain what I wanted to do with my teeth but I could explain the problems I’d had and the state they were in (though I felt really ashamed!) Toni was a massive support throughout, coordinating my treatment and checking in on me whenever she saw me. Anita and Susan were amazing every time. I had lots of fillings replaced and needed to add in an emergency root canal treatment (which Anita squeezed me in the same day for - which is absolutely unreal!), I got teeth whitening and composite bonding too. I will definitely be starting a monthly payment plan here to keep up my oral health and hygiene with people I trust. Fantastic service all round. Beautiful reception area. Really helpful reception staff. Thank you all so much!

My husband and myself new patients. The receptionists are so polite and friendly and I believe I was seen by the boss lady. Simply brilliant. As was her lovely assistant. Had to return for a little adjustment again brilliant. Completely happy 🙂

Would highly recommend Church Street Dental especially my dentist Jonny for giving me back my smile. As a nervous patient scared on my first 1st appointment, over the period of my treatment I came to look forward to my appointments and I’m no longer scared of the dentist which was down to Jonny. I love my whiter, healthier teeth, it was worth every penny!

I had composite bonding done with Anita and I am thrilled with the results 1.5 years later. Beautiful clinic, great staff and great service. I would definitely recommend!

I couldn’t recommend CSDP any higher. Enquired about Invisalign when I first joined and to see my teeth after the treatment is astonishing and I couldn’t be happier. The staff are just phenomenal and caring no matter what and always work around what’s best for you and your schedule. Big thanks to Anita who kept me straight (pun intended) with my Invisalign procedure and treatment plan.

I have been coming here with the family during when Doctor Tang owned and after Anita took overI have always found the staff to be very friendly and when emergency’s happen always quick to react considering post pandemic work loadYesterday I needed an urgent filling due to a cracked tooth which had become painfulChloe has always been professional and has always reassured myself and my wife who is a very nervous patientChloe has been so good with my wife that she no longer needs sedation for treatmentMy filling is now replaced and I had a thorough check upI cannot recommend this surgery enough, yes they do private work but not to the detriment of the NHS patientsThank you to the whole team for outstanding customer service and helping me get sorted before my trip to FloridaRespect to you all for doing a great job in a very high pressure environmentTo all patients be kind to all staff they are playing catch up from the pandemic and most have not taken a holiday for sometime due to prioritising patients over own needs

Excellent service at Church Street Dental practice, made you feel extremely comfortable and informed throughout. Very friendly and professional service. I saw the staff members the following day in town and was also talking to them for a while! 100% the best in this area.

I have had Invisalign, teeth whitening and bonding with Church Street Dental Practice. I was so unhappy with my teeth and visited many dentists to try and find the right fit. I knew immediately when I had a consultation with Anita that I wanted to have my treatment done there. The staff are all so lovely and accommodating. Anita listened to all of my concerns and made every effort to fulfil my vision (which she definitely did). I then had my bonding done with Sunny and I absolutely love them, they’re everything I could of imagined and more! I recommend this dentist to absolutely everyone, they have just been so amazing! Linzi is also a huge credit to the surgery, she is always so happy and chatty which is a lovely thing to first walk into! I don’t think I could go anywhere else now

I've been going to Church Street Dental Practice a year or 2 now and I wouldn't go elsewhere. The service is 10/10 both from Anita and her Great team which are very friendly and make you feel welcome. Had a couple of teeth extracted and never felt a thing at all. Think this practice would be great if your a nervous patient etc 👍🏼
