What Our Patient's Say

If the word dentist fills you with fear take heart. Last year I visited Balsall Common Dental Surgery (best thing I ever did) I was so afraid because I thought I knew what lay ahead., How wrong could I be. Ashley was so kind and understanding and listened to my fears and took the time to put me at ease and after a number of visits we decided on a course of treatment that was best for me. Ashley took time to explain all the options open to me and what was involved, and the cost.When the day came for my implants (4) I felt quite at ease and relaxed,and can honestly say I felt no discomfort or pain just as Ashley had promised. I can't thank Ashley and his lovely team enough for giving me back my confidence and my smile. Not to mention advice on wedding hats. Thanks to Ashley and all the team. - read more

I absolutely cannot recommend Cathy, Ashley and the staff highly enough. I am the most petrified patient ever and didn't attend a dentist for years . But now I'm getting ready to have implants and this is only down to them making me at ease and going the extra mile to explain everything. Still scared but know I'm in safe hands Update - I was very scared and didn't know what t expect going in for my implants but was so surprised and pleased that I have gone ahead as I really was not in any pain at all, the procedure was explained to me in detail and the pain relief after was managed with over the counter painkillers, Thank you to Cathy for getting me over my fear and to the stage where this is possible, thank you Ashley for getting me through the implant process and thanks to the dental nurses for making me feel at ease and you were right Kirsty it really wasn't that bad ! If anyone is considering any dentistry including implants this really is the only place to go. Update - had me wonderful new implants fitted with no trouble at all and they look fantastic. I now have more confidence and feel so much better. Thanks to all the team for your care and patience. - read more

I was terrified about having implants. BUT, it was nowhere near as bad as I thought. Most painful part was from anaesthetic injections!! Gas and air definitely helped my nerves too. Thank you Dr Davenport, I absolutely love my new teeth and would recommend your skill and that of your lovely nurses to anyone thinking they are too frightened to go ahead. - read more
