    "I always have a good experience at this dentist. Appointments are usually prompt and no fuss booking. Worth noting that because of the age of the building some of the ceilings are low and there are lots of steep stairs down the waiting area so that might put some off but I have no trouble. Saw the hygienist for the first time on this trip and she was wonderful, very attentive and we had a good giggle. I am very pleased with the results. They never try to push extra treatments or whitening which I really appreciate."

  • NHS Choices 5 out of 5

    "I have had a long history with a lower tooth which had not been properly resolved with a previous dentist so after a few weeks of misery caused by the increasing toothache, I contacted this practice. As soon as I spoke to the team I was filled with confidence that they would sort out the issue which they did that day. One particular dentist was excellent, extremely professional and compassionate. She extracted the tooth as requested and prescribed a course of antibiotics for the infection which had been causing the toothache. I also want to give a shout to the rest of the team including the lady on the front of house. All in all excellent service which I would highly recommend."

  • NHS Choices 5 out of 5

    "Went to the dentist a few weeks ago and was told I needed to come back for a deep clean. The dentist and his dental nurse were very kind and reassuring during both visits. He told me what he was going to do and what to do if I needed him to stop. He was very gentle and it didn’t hurt at all. The dental nurse and dentist had a conversation between themselves which made me feel at ease. The receptionist was also friendly. The surgery it self is very nice too, feels nothing like a dentist! Made a very anxious patient not so anxious and I will actually go back for future check ups!"

Who we are

{my}dentist is the UK’s largest network of dental practices across the UK. Every year, we see more than 4 million patients and help thousands of people achieve their dream smiles with our teeth straightening treatments.

Unlike some companies we have years of experience in teeth straightening

We believe that teeth straightening can only be safely carried out by qualified dentists. They are the only people who have the knowledge and skills to provide safe and predictable treatment. At {my}dentist we have the UK’s largest network of clinicians who will listen to your individual smile goals and deliver high quality, safe, convenient and affordable care.

We only work with dental clinicians

As well as our network of dentists we also have a UK-wide network of qualified orthodontists, should you need more complex treatment. While all of the dentists you will see are trained to provide teeth straightening with clear aligners, some patients might need to see a specialist orthodontist if their teeth are very crowded. Whatever your needs you can relax in the knowledge that we can help.

Clinically safe

All {my}dentist patients have their treatment overseen by a UK registered dentist. We will make sure that your teeth and overall oral health are in good shape before we start teeth straightening and check in with you regularly to make sure that the treatment is progressing as planned. That means you can rest assured that at the end of treatment your teeth will look and feel great. All of our practices are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the UK’s healthcare governing body, and are subject to the strictest clinical protocols.
