Nervous patients

As a practice we are keen to encourage anxious/nervous patients as we have many years’ experience of successfully treating anxious patients. The Dental Health Centre and has established a sensitive and compassionate team of dentists and staff who work together to help you overcome your fears.

We recognise that there are many reasons why people can be anxious about visiting the dentist and our team of clinicians are keen to understand what your reasons are and to help you to overcome them.

We have successfully treated many patients whose fear of the dentist has been so bad that they have avoided a dental visit for many years. When this is the case it is common to feel embarrassed about this, which may worsen your anxiety. We understand this and want to reassure you that we will not judge you for this. Our team will ensure you feel comfortable at every stage of your visit with us.

If you are nervous and worried about a dental visit, you don’t need to put it off any longer, we do free acclimatisation visits where you can come in and talk about your fears and look at the options we might offer you. We have many patients registered with us who were extremely nervous about their first visits; the great thing is that having overcome their fears, those patients now feel comfortable attending regularly for routine care. We would like this to be you, so why not book a visit!

After a freak Racket Sport accident where I smashed off the bottom of my front tooth and the one next to it ended up wobbling I made a frantic phone call to the The Dental Health Ctr - my regular dentist of over 30years. They were able to get me an emergency appointment with Dr Asim (my dentist) that very same morning. In total distress at what had happened and the visual impact with it being my front teeth - from the minute I walked in sheepishly covering my mouth to talk with a lisp - they were kind, compassionate and reassuring which set me at ease immediately. The reassuring words from the receptionist that I was in safe hands with Dr Asim was just wanted I needed to hear at that point. These words could not have been truer - from the minute I walked in and showed me the damage he was calm and relaxed and told me not to worry - he could rebuild my tooth. Through every step of the 1hr treatment he was calm and explained what was going to happen which put me totally at ease to the point I nearly fell asleep in the chair. I can not thank Dr Asim, his Dental Nurse and the whole reception team for helping me, rearranging other appointments so i could receive the treatment I needed and more importantly the end result - which I am flabbergasted at how good it looks and a result I dont think I ever visualised after the initial impact. They say once you find a barber you trust you never change - well the same can be said about Dentists and why I have been with the practice for over 30yrs. So thanks again to Dr Asim the The Whole Team at The Dental Health Ctr. Christmas certainly came early for me when I said - All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth!

Everyone in the building are lovely people. I'm a nervous and anxious patient they listen to you and guide you through the process always checking on you and making sure you are comfortable, they give you mini breaks if it's getting a bit much and make the whole experience easier while making you feel relaxed. I couldn't fault anyone in the clinic. Best decision picking this to be my dentist

Friendly, helpful reception followed by a thorough treatment from hygienist with all aspects of treatment explained. Short wait before saw the dentist who was also thorough and explained possible future treatments. Both he and the dental nurse were kind, pleasant and helpful.

Everybody listened to my needs. I have vertigo and a great deal of care was taken to ensure my need to sit up were met even though it was uncomfortable for the clinician and nurse to work on my teeth in that position. Huge gratitude to them for catering to me.

The hygienist is very skilled and always puts me at my ease. She does a thorough job. The dental nurse was really good with the equipment and so I did not feel I was choking once. The reception staff are always pleasant and efficient .

To be honest, going to The Dental Health Centre is a day out! It’s lovely to see everyone, all the staff are fabulous! Dominic is the “world’s greatest dentist”. They’re an amazing team! Thank you xx

I should not have choked twice during my dental hygiene treatment that I was very unpleasant. The price has also gone up too much.

2nd November 2025

I was able to arrange an appointment convenient for me. Maria was extremely thoughtful in providing the treatment I needed within the checkup because she realised that I am housebound and travelling is very difficult. The treatment was quick and efficient and everything was explained clearly. Luckily for me I didn't have to negotiate stairs! It couldn't have been a better experience.
