Hygiene visit

5 out of 5 stars
workingfeedback logo
I attended a routine visit with dental hygienist Victoria. The appointment was on time and lasted about 30 minutes, cleaning was thorough and pain free. Victoria is very efficient at her job and has a warm welcoming personality so I highly recommend her. The receptionist was also very pleasant when checking me in (sorry I don't know her name),

Very reassuring

5 out of 5 stars
workingfeedback logo
This was a final fitting for a new denture that replaced the original one. I was naturally apprehensive about how it would feel rather than any other aspect, as I have very sensitive teeth and recurring gum inflammations. As usual, Pav was very reassuring - taking time to explain the best insertion method - going through the process several times, assuring me I would find the best way of achieving this through practice. He wants to see me again in 2 weeks to assess progress. I think I'm winning!

I recommend this Practice highly - caring, professional and skilled. As a 50’s child left “traumatised” by dental visits the team has helped me overcome my fear and I’m extremely grateful.

Emergency appointment

5 out of 5 stars
workingfeedback logo
I was given an emergency appointment to suit me. I received a kind and courteous greeting on arrival and did not have to wait to be seen. This is a very professional practice and the care and attention I received was second to none. I cannot praise all those concerned highly enough. My teeth are a cause for concern but I know I am in good hands at this practice.

Seen on same day regarding my toothache. However, next appointment was scheduled for 5 days later which in the end was not sustainable as I was in a lot of pain. Ended up going for emergency elsewhere.

I am so pleased that I found Byways Dental Practice. Fabulous staff from Reception through to surgery. So polite, so careful and kind (of a nervous mature lady!). The work I have received has been exceptional, and I can't recommend Byways highly enough.

I was really satisfied having postponed my last six monthly appointment during the height of the Covid epidemic. Very good Covid precautions generally. I find the practice really friendly and professional. Thank you everyone.
