As wonderful as possible to be when visiting a dentist. The dentist, hygienist and reception staff always greet with a smile and are patient and reassuring. Having met Paddington the therapy dog at my recent hygienist appointment I'm super excited to be able book him in for cuddles with my son who is incredibly anxious of the dentist. Hes even mentioned being excited for his next appointment knowing he will get to meet Paddington. What an amazing addition to the team at Lighthouse!

Another very efficient visit to the Lighthouse Dental Practice, made especially welcome by Paddington, the trainee assistance dog who calmed my nerves in the waiting room. 40 plus years with this Practice and always great attentive service.

My daughter had an appointment with Jade today. She was quite worried and both Jade and her colleague were friendly and helpful. They put her at ease and fully explained a procedure that they would like to carry out in a few weeks. Jade was very understanding regarding my daughter’s fears. Receptionist also very friendly. Would recommend.

Thank you very much for your review and for your kind words.
Our small independent practice operates under a notably limited NHS contract, which is one of the smallest in Suffolk. We place significant importance on seeing children under the NHS. We work with dentists from the hospital, and we have opened our practice on some Saturdays (dependent on dentists' availability) specifically to accommodate NHS dentistry. This ensures that even with our limited resources, we can provide essential dental care to young patients.

In addition to our practice operations, we are committed to community outreach. We do volunteer work in schools and nurseries because we are fully aware of the challenges in accessing dental care for children. These efforts are part of our dedication to promoting oral health and preventing dental issues from a young age. Additionally, our oral health educator offers sessions to children, further supporting our mission to improve dental health awareness and practices in our community.

We are deeply committed to patient care and never turn away patients experiencing pain or in need of emergency dental treatment.

However, recruiting dentists to our practice is a significant challenge due to the constraints of our small contract. Despite extensive advertising and appeals to the NHS for a larger contract, we have not yet achieved positive outcomes.

We genuinely hope you understand the limitations we face and extend our sincere gratitude for your patience and understanding. We appreciate your support as we navigate these challenges and strive to provide the best possible care for our patients.

Thank you once again.

I have just attended a routine visit to the Lighthouse Dental Practice. For an appointment with the Dentist for a check up and hygiene treatment. I was looked after very well at the visit. I could not have asked for better.
