Osborne Dental Practice

Osborne Dental Practice is fantastic!
If you’re anything like me you get sweaty palms and clench your teeth just thinking about a trip to the dentist! I attended the same family dentist well into my 20’s so had just about begun to tolerate visits — a mandatory chocolate doughnut afterwards (which my parents bribed me with during my childhood years) seemed to help. Then I moved to Newcastle and it seemed a tad excessive travelling 140 miles and I would use it as an excuse not to go.
Osborne Dental Practice obviously has lots of experience dealing with ‘awkward’ patients like me who cry when they are told they need any form of treatment .They even ask about your anxiety levels on the registration form! Dr Dhanoya has literally changed my perception of and experience of dentists and I would recommend his care to anyone. In addition to check ups, hygienist appointments and an unfortunate root canal I even opted for voluntary Invisalign braces last year as I felt so comfortable.
All the staff are polite and professional. They are very flexible with their appointment times outside of conventional working hours but you can be waiting a while to get an appointment. They offer sedation for nervous patients like me (bonus as you get to feel rather merry after treatment). The practice plan is also a good idea if you are wanting treatments as you get a discount. My only grumble would be that looking after your teeth can be expensive… but I guess a smile is worth a million dollars as they say!
