Glass Ionomer Filling England

I have been a patient of Dr Makhani for several years now and as a 66 year old have had some experience of dentists. He is a consummate professional and obviously up to date with all the latest technology. My latest visit involved a troublesome back tooth that had been giving me spasmodic pain and was slowly becoming worse. After a careful inspection Dr Makhani noticed a small crack in the tooth which made a root canal and filling pointless as the tooth would disintegrate. An extraction was on the cards but from the x-ray a curved root could be seen making that potentially problematic. Luckily expertise runs in the family and Dr Makhani referred me to his son who has a speciality in extractions. What particularly impressed me about Shahid was his overall care and determination not to extract unless absolutely necessary. After two more visits, some treatment, and advice from Shahid we decided that it had to come out. The extraction was perfectly executed and the troublesome curve in the root was removed. His advice on aftercare was very useful and I was back to eating normally within two weeks. I also received a phone call from Mrs Makhani to to check on my progress. Only downside that Swimming was not allowed for two weeks. Great treatment!

Absolutely first class treatment, very aware of the pain and stress dental surgery can cause so very sympathetic care. Fantastic results already and looking forward to being able to eat and feel good again about my teeth. Highly recommend.

Very professional and calming. Explanation was very helpful and put my mind at ease.

George has been my dentist for a good few years, always polite, friendly & professional. My experience with everybody who works at this practice has always been above and beyond normal expectations. Thank you.

My daughter was extremely nervous about getting wisdom teeth removed. Right from the enquiry at reception, the staff were friendly and reassuring. She didn't feel a thing and had got over her nerves of the dentist. Omar was a fabulous surgeon. Good value for a positive experience! I have since recommended Appledore to my sister and a friend.
