The staff was great. Very welcoming and friendly. The dentist, especially Dr Ali and his nurse was very nice and caring. He made my children feel right at home as if we were his own family. He provided excellent service every time and my children is happy and confident be coming here for all their future dental needs! Thank you everyone.

The website states that they are taking NHS patients but they're not. They have over 500 on the waiting list and not adding anymore patients. Apparently they have to advertise on their website that they are accepting NHS patients... even though that are not accepting them! Seriously!

Have turned up for an appointment that I wasn't told was cancelled, and had another appointment where the dentist was going to be 2 hours late so options were either wait or re-book.

I went for the first time in 2 years for a check up, first visit to this dentist as my other one had closed down. I am extremely fearful of dentists hence the 2 years! I went to a dental hygienist at another dentists about a month ago who spent 40 minutes on a scale (no polish) and then told me I have bone loss and need X-rays immediately and tried to pressure me into an emergency appointment with their dentist. Amazingly, and I thought if a 100 reasons not to go, I turned up for my morning appointment today at Seaside Dental Practice to see the main dentist. I explained after a short wait for my appointment that I was fearful of this appointment and the treated me calmly and I felt completely at ease. Two X-rays were done showing a couple of gums were slightly inflamed so the dentist recommended flossing daily with interdental brushes dipped in mouthwash. He asked me why were my teeth so stained and go I smile? I replied no. I then said that after my other appointment at a different practice that I had been going mad with corsodyl mouthwash to which he explained that it is only for short term use and that is why my teeth are so stained. I asked if I could get them cleaned and he said I could book an appointment with their hygienist which I did! So I went from thinking Im going to lose my teeth to them being fine in one session with the guy:) The hygienist is 49 compared to the 39 experience that scared me to death at another practice so I asked to book up at reception. The receptionist asked for a 20 deposit which I paid, no problem. I have a friend that is a dentist in another part of the country and I know that he is struggling to take on new NHS clients due to the cuts in the NHS and even to perform necessary works for existing NHS clients without them having to pay. It is a sad state of affairs and unfortunately he has really had to tighten the reigns with regards to people missing appointments etc which was highlighted in a couple of reviews I read before my appointment. Just FYI. Id recommended this practice and am pleased I have found a new dentists. As I am a little bit older now I feel its time to make some more of an effort with my teeth and gums, and feel that I will get the support from Seaside.
