Teeth Whitening

Are you looking for brighter, whiter teeth?

Are your teeth discoloured & stained? Does that cause you to hide your teeth when you smile?

At Southport Road Dental we offer several different types of teeth whitening treatment to suit the needs of your teeth as well as your budget.

Whiten your smile today

At the start of your treatment you will whiten both your upper and lower teeth daily with the easy to use at home system. The pack that you will take home will contain your custom made whitening trays and 12 tubes of whitening solution.

This allows you to obtain the shade that you want in your own time, perfect for fitting in with busy lives.

After your initial treatment we will top up your smile yearly when you visit one of our polishers.

Meanwhile when you whiten your smile, 3 people will receive ‘sight giving glasses’ on your behalf through our partnership with BUY1GIVE1.

Truly pain free, and so reassuring for nervous patients like me!I've been terrified of going to the dentist for as long as I remember, and have refused to go for over 10 years (despite shattering a tooth).I live miles away from the practice but the reviews and pain free promise made me comfortable enough to at least go for a consultation.I'm so glad I did. David was incredibly friendly and reassured me from the start. He had a speedy look in my mouth and I had a few x-rays including the... remnants of my shattered tooth. It was relieving to find out I had a lot less problems than I had expecting.Knowing my nervousness, he suggested I see the hygienist first and explained that the only sensation would be a little water in the mouth. Rebecca was so patient (sorry I kept you late) and made me feel at ease during the process. I'm genuinely looking forward to next hygienist appointment. My teeth felt so much cleaner after this.I also needed a couple of fillings and the remnants of that tooth removing. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified for this. David did a great job of making me feel at ease when we discussed the treatment (although I forgot it all when I was stressing about it at home).I thought pain free would be just a cutesie saying and it would still hurt a bit. I genuinely didn't feel a thing. No pain from the needle, as I was numbed before it, no pain from the fillings (my fave part) and no pain from the extraction (took him all of 30 seconds).I can't thank everyone at the practice enough. Everyone has been absolutely lovely. I'd recommended in a heartbeat, especially if your nervous and getting back into the dentist like I was.read more

I had been having loads of issues trying to find anywhere to help with my wisdom teeth and other issues. They helped me get seen a quickly and was able to get everything sorted within a short time. Patrick Hesketh was very kind and gentle making sure i wasn’t in any pain and gave me steps on where they where at the whole time. The removal didn’t take long and was in no pain even a few days after just mild aches. Everything was so amazing and my life will improve massively without the daily... pain. Dearly thank you to all the kind staff and helpful reception team.🩷read more

This was my first visit to a dentist in 10 years, and had a top wisdom tooth removed. I was put completely at ease, I felt no pain during the extraction which eased my fear and anxiety immensely.

I couldn’t be happier with my full smile makeover and the entire experience from start to finish. Every member of staff was so warm, welcoming, and professional throughout the whole process, which immediately put me at ease. I was extremely nervous about the needles, but I can honestly say the treatment was completely pain-free, I didn’t feel any pain at all. David was absolutely amazing from beginning to end and his attention to detail and perfectionism truly show in the final result. Thanks to him and the team, I can finally smile again without feeling self-conscious. If I could sum up this dentist in one word, it would simply be: amazing.

I hadn’t been to the dentist for many years and it was seeing all the good reviews about Southport Road Dental Practice that encouraged me to make my first appointment. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. There was no judgment, no sales pitches and no pain. Just honest, professional advice. I wish I’d gone sooner. I can highly recommend both Cate and Sarah.

Rachel Denwood

At every appointment with Rebecca, you are made to feel so at ease. She is incredibly friendly and welcoming and she talks you through what she’s doing. Nobody looks forward to a dentist appointment but Rebecca is so lovely that it makes it a much more pleasant experience.

Alan Williams

I’ve been a patient here for over 30 years and even though I’ve since moved away I still travel here for my dental care. David, Rashmi & their team including Sarah look after me with a professional & dedicated attitude. I am totally satisfied with the care & service I receive.

Jacqueline Dunn

We started taking my daughter to Southport Road when she was a child as she had become really nervous of going to the dentist. The whole team were so kind and patient, they were amazing with her, and now the whole family go there. About 18 months ago I decided I would like to have my teeth straightened to improve my smile: Marc explained the process really clearly to me and used sure smile aligners to reposition any badly aligned teeth, and composite edge bonding to give each tooth a better shape. I’ve been delighted with the results. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this practise, whether it’s for treatment needed to deal with dental pain or for cosmetic treatment.

Given that I did not have an appointment I was found a slot within 30 minutes. David got the job done within another 30 minutes. This dentist offers no pain dentistry and this is what it does well- no one needs to be afraid and every member of staff are so nice, if you do need any dental treatment I would use southport rd dentist

With having a fear of dentists, and struggling to get the courage to go again, after 4 years I found the perfect fit at Southport Road Dental practice. The staff are all friendly but most importantly very understanding to my needs. Cate my dentist was amazing and after my recent treatment, I can truly say I have never felt more comfortable about going to a dentist. Thankyou and keep up the great service.

I had composite bonding on my top front teeth and couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish Marc and Alice were both professional and friendly. There was no pressure to have extra treatment, I wanted a natural result and that is the effect Marc achieved. I now have a smile to be proud of.

Joanna Wright

I was petrified of dentists. Alice and colleagues really made me feel at ease and explained what was happening through all my treatment. My teeth look amazing!!

Teresa Lean

Recently completed a set of veneers with Mark, as an incredibly anxious patient I can honestly say that Marks calm and empathic approach put me completely at ease and I am incredibly happy with the outcome. Mark is a true professional putting the needs of his patients central to the care he delivers. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mark.

Having a huge fear of dentist after a bad experience at age of sixteen I have great admiration for the way I was treated after a tooth broke off. I can now say that I have no fear of visiting the dentist thanks to Marc and the staff at Pain Free Dentistry.

Siobhan Edge

15:24 05 Mar 26

Extremely pleased with the service I received. I lost a filling and my current dentist couldn't fit me in for a week. I spoke to Lucia at Southport Road Dentist and she calmed me down and got me an appointment within the hour!. Seen by Mark {assisted by Lydia} .. absolutely delighted with my treatment and how Mark explained everything that needed to be done as he was doing it... So impressed that I have now changed to this Dental Practice

I have been visiting Southport Road Dental for approximately 12 years. Since moving away from the area, I have continued to use the practice despite the 120 mile round trip! This alone is a testament to the confidence I have in David and his team.Due to my travel time, I always arrive for appointments early and am usually greeted by Lucia in reception who is lovely.David is the ultimate professional and has a brilliant manner. On a number of occasions, I have contacted David regarding unexpected dental concerns. David has responded with appropriate advice or has been willing to see me at short notice. One such occasion was quite recently when I emailed David regarding a tooth that had started to ache. Twelve months earlier, David had predicted that this tooth would require some attention on my next visit. David’s prediction was accurate and a few days later I was sitting in his chair having root canal treatment. I can honestly say that this procedure which was quite intrusive was totally pain free. Even in the following days I experienced no soreness whatsoever. David has now completed this treatment with a crown and I am confident that this will last for years to come!Since visiting Southport Road Dental, I have regularly seen Rebecca who is the hygienist. Rebecca is also lovely and totally professional and considerate of the patients’ needs. I had never seen a hygienist previously and thanks to Rebecca my oral health has improved considerably.My experience at Southport Road dental has always been amazing and I would have no hesitation in recommending David and his team.

Anne Corner

16:09 24 Feb 26

I had a Hygienist appointment with Sarah today. I was extremely impressed by how well I was looked after by both Sarah and Rachel. They were both very kind, very thoughtful, very thorough and very considerate. Thankyou to both of them.

Julie Roberts

17:30 23 Feb 26

The experience I have had with this dentistry is absolutely brilliant, I was treated by Cate and Jodie, I felt like I mattered, they listened to me, i have really bad anxiety and thoroughly explained procedure, advised on what was best for me personally, put me at ease straight away, on my day I had treatment I felt everything was perfect, I cannot praise the team enough and its as advertised pain free, the aftercare advise, I have had no problems and you get a call to ask if you are ok and if you have had any problems, I would recommend people again and again ❤️ sorry no photo, no teeth hahahaha Julie Roberts

I’m a fussy patient after my father was my dentist for most of my life! When he retired I was quite anxious to start with another dentist. Fortunately, David & Rashmi have been brilliant! Their ongoing support and compassion have been amazing! I will always recommend them highly to everyone! :)

Jaime Ditchett

09:42 20 Feb 26

Paid consultation fee and was told I needed further work before invisalign could be fitted. Work came into the cost of 500 pound so I wasn't able to get treatment done at the time. Phoned back now I have the money to book treatment which has been some time because of the cost. To be told I need to pay for another consultation of 150 pound! Before I can even see a dentist and get treatment. Phoned another dentist which offered a free consultation and a appointment the same day to see hygienist. Avoid this dentist its just a money making scheme.

Nick Rimmer

20:27 17 Feb 26

I have just completed an 18 month programme of restorative treatment to repair and replace crowns and fillings previously undertaken by NHS dentists. My dentist, Marc Coombes explained the planned works fully and provided accurate costings up front. I have been delighted with the quality of the dentistry provided and the professional advice given to me by Marc. I would not hesitate to recommend Southport Road Dental Practice.

Came to the dentist as a direct client for a Hygiene appointment. Originally they couldn’t get me in until March however the Hygienist offered to stay late due to my circumstances. The hygienist (I think called Sarah) was amazingly gentle, reassuring and thorough. I’ve booked in for my next appointment and will definitely be continuing as a patient there.

I went to the practice on recommendation and im very glad I did.The name Pain Free dentistry? really, could that be an actual thing?Well it really is.Ive had a lot of treatment, fillings, crowns, root canal treatment with Mark and I can honestly say that it was pain free and very importantly anxiety free. No more sleepless nights when your appointment is looming. No more heart racing with anxiety whilst waiting for your name to be called.Ive recommend Mark to all my family and friends and they all have good things to say about how they felt and are very pleased with their treatment.My teeth look and feel fantastic.I wish that I had come across this practice years ago, it would have saved me a lot of pain and suffering and stress.I highly recommend Mark and this practice.

Ani Williams

WOW! What a *GREAT* day at the dentist (and I don’t know how many people can say that).I firstly need to say I’m a ‘professional’ on what excellent, knowledgeable dental care is having been born with a cleft palate/lip. I can’t afford not to have *the* best dentist after 20yrs of surgeries to build a face, which included surgery to take my jaws apart and put them back together in a different order. Southport Road dental have been the ongoing custodians of my dental miracle for many years and the knowledge, awareness and joined-up care from all the team (including hygienists) has always been outstanding.I know about ‘painful’ and ‘pain-free’ dentistry. At Southport Road Dental I don’t ever even have a tensing of my fingers (or the second sign, tension in calves/feet!) no matter what the complexity of work. It truely is pain-free and everyone from Reception to all the dentistry teams will treat you with the utmost care and respect from the start of your engagement with them.The teams are *so* knowledgeable about the most complex dental procedures - you can tell for everyone this a vocation not just a job. Each time I go I learn more and more about the miraculous jaw surgery I had, and the team are the most professional support crew I could hope for to make sure everything stays in good shape. But on this visit I needed a crown to replace an old amalgam filling. … It was an amazing and fascinating experience!Firstly, you literally never feel anything - even the dental injections to numb the areas are not felt, never mind the actual work. David then showed me the incredible technology they use - firstly to scan my mouth/teeth in 3D/colour - then how he uses that image to create the unique, individual-to-me crown that will have a perfect bite. Once he’s programmed the scanner it shows an image of the crown, how it’s perfectly moulded to fit my tooth and also shaped for the perfect bite. He takes a small block of the dental material to another machine where it’s automatically cut from the scanned image. It’s then fired at tremendous temperature so it will be stronger than my natural teeth and when cooled it’s fitted (including other amazing processes for fixing in place). And after David finished a few final polishings you instantly have the perfect bite. And all without feeling a thing from start to finish!I’m the F1-professional-Driver level of dentistry Client - I *have* to have a support crew as expert, knowledgeable and efficient as *the* best F1 Pit Crew ever, and Southport Road Dental have always been that partner for me for many years. From ongoing maintenance and cleaning advice with the hygienists, to expert monitoring and advice on my complex dental ‘artefacts’ to keep the miraculous gift I was given by surgeons many years ago in excellent shape.Today it was an absolute privilege to see ‘behind the scenes’ at the levels of their expert knowledge and it’s blown me away. And that takes some doing for someone who has been through what I have.I can guarantee to you this standard of service isn’t limited to one Dentist or one Hygienist, it’s a team standard and those high standards apply right through the Reception teams also. If you need a truly professional and truly pain-free Dentist this is the place. Just for interest, the photos attached is the incredible machine cutting/making my crown that David had designed. It’s not often you can say ‘I’ve had a *GREAT* day at the dentist’ but today I have. Thank you to all the team! 💕

I can't recommend this team more highly...from booking to procedure I was treated with the utmost care. The Best Team!I went in with a long-standing fear of the dentist and came out feeling calm, confident and pain free. From the first appointment, Rashmi was compassionate, patient, and never dismissive of my anxiety. She explained each step, checked in often, and made the entire experience surprisingly comfortable. This practice has genuinely changed how I feel about dental care. If you’re nervous or fearful, this is the dentist you want.

Emma F (ef)

12:39 18 Dec 25

I can’t recommend Southport Road Dental practice enough and in particular Alice. I was totally terrified of the dentist following a few bad experiences as a child and had put off attending for a VERY long time. I desperately wanted to get my broken front tooth fixed so that I wasn’t so self conscious of it. When I first visited Alice in October she immediately calmed my nerves. She always lets me know what is going to happen prior to doing anything and having now had a lovely front crown fitted I am actually happy to smile again. I am delighted with the final results. I haven’t experienced any pain whatsoever throughout the work done so far.If you’re considering going to the dentist, be brave and go here they’re brilliant!Thank you so much Alice and also your dental nurses, you’re all amazing 🤩

13:05 17 Dec 25

Please make an appointment for a chat if you are nervous or scared of dentists. I haven't seen a dentist for over 40 yrs as I shake and cry etc even going through the door. I had left it till desperate as worried I was losing my teeth. I arrived with my husband shaking and crying Kate was amazing so quietly spoken and calm took examination very slowly at my pace. I have just been back for treatment under sedation which was much better for me everything went brilliant.I can't praise this surgery enough I am even going back for a follow up. Can't thank Kate enough.Kath Embleton.

Absolutely amazing level of patient centred care! My dentist Jennifer took the time to ensure I was comfortable with the treatment I was receiving by explaining the process clearly and calming my nerves. Jennifer made the whole process painless and easy. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome. The practice itself is stunning, clean and staff are professional yet friendly which again makes the experience of going to the dentist much easier. Would highly recommend!

I had been having loads of issues trying to find anywhere to help with my wisdom teeth and other issues. They helped me get seen a quickly and was able to get everything sorted within a short time. Patrick Hesketh was very kind and gentle making sure i wasn’t in any pain and gave me steps on where they where at the whole time. The removal didn’t take long and was in no pain even a few days after just mild aches. Everything was so amazing and my life will improve massively without the daily pain. Dearly thank you to all the kind staff and helpful reception team.🩷

Woke up with severe toothache on Tuesday morning, rang Southport Road Dental at 10 am, appointment booked for 11 am and tooth extracted by 11:30 am. Unbelievable level of service and Kate the dentist was brilliant. She quickly arrived at and understood my dental problem and provided the correct solution. Very gentle, ensuring I had no pain and talked me through the procedure. Faultless! I even got a phone call the following morning to check everything still ok. Private dental service at its best. Thank you all

I recently had a crown fitted at Southport Road Dental Practice, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. The entire process—from start to finish—was completed in just two hours and was completely painless. I was amazed at how efficient and comfortable it all was.What made the experience even more impressive is that a colleague of mine is currently six weeks into getting a crown fitted elsewhere—and they've paid the same amount as I did, thanks to my dental plan. They're still waiting for the final fitting, while I walked out the same day with a perfectly fitted crown and zero discomfort.David is absolutely fantastic. He’s incredibly patient, treats every patient as an individual, and makes sure you never feel rushed. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and calmly, which really helps to put you at ease. His professional yet warm manner truly inspires confidence—you can tell you're in good hands.I’d recommend Southport Road Dental Practice to anyone looking for high-quality, efficient, and compassionate dental care.

Absolutely brilliant! Rashmi and her team took me from being an extremely nervous patient who would not even have a scale and polish without IV sedation and fear of the needle to having 6 extractions in one go with only the needle and no sedation! I cannot recommend them enough❤️Another challenge😳 loose tooth, couldn't fit partial denture in, early flight following day, having a breakdown and scared of the dentist 😳 however from the moment I made the call to Southport Road I knew I would be OK, was seen by Mark as an emergency and within 10 minutes the tooth was out and everything was back to normal I cannot speak more highly of them, everyone of the staff there plays a part in helping you through your fears. I would not go anywhere else and cannot thank them enough💗

It wasTwenty years since I last attended a dentist appointment, not because I couldn't find a dentist but because of sheer fear of dentists which was due to having a bad experience. I felt physically sick if anyone mentioned a dentist in passing conversation and I felt like a big softie but the fear and how I felt kept me away for all of them years.I started to have niggles in my teeth and discomfort and plucked up the courage to research online, even doing the research sent me into a trembling mess. I came accross the Pain free dentist in Chorley and read all about the treatments and the reviews left by patients, which were amazing and I thought if they could do it, then so could I. I contacted the dentist and on first impressions the dental receptionist was warm and caring and understood how I felt. I made my appointment and was met by Kate the dentist. We discussed my fears in depth and my trust started to grow slowly as she understood and listened to me.My treatment was for an extraction, filling and descale, as I had gum disease too. I agreed to return for treatment but we agreed that the sedation would be the best route for me. Again this was discussed in depth and health checks were done.On the day of my treatment, even though I was nervous, I didnt feel sick and I slept the night prior to treatment day. Kate had gone through my treatment and I knew what was going to happen. Kate and her assistant were welcoming and reassuring and before I new it I was being sedated. I don't really remember anything from the treatment other than them checking my pulse and blood pressure. Then my husband was there to collect me and I went home.The whole experience has changed my concept on dentists, I have a follow up soon and will continue with further treatment needed. Wow, I cannot believe the difference in me and visiting a dentist. There is still a journey to go on but I have total trust in Kate and the team.I wasn't in any pain or discomfort during my treatment and a minute amount of pain after the treatment, nothing a paracetamol couldn't sort out.I totally get why they are called a pain free dentist and I am so glad I found them and plucked up the courage to contact them.

I never thought I could feel so at ease at a dentist!I hadn't been for nearly 18 years!Rashmi Chattopadhyay was so calm , understanding and so friendly.I opted for sedation as I had treatment but do feel I may be able to try without it next time.Genuine fear but has definitely eased some now I have found the right dentist.Highly recommend to anyone with nerves or past trauma like myself.Thank you so much

It really is Pain Free!! I can't recommend Rashmi and her team enough. I was so nervous about visiting the dentist. I was made to feel at ease throughout and had my treatment as planned. My fear of the dentist has now reduced massively. It is all down to how well you are treated at Southport Road Dental practice. I was looked after by Lindsey prior to my treatment and afterwards. They really do care and this is what makes the difference. Thank you for looking after me. See you at my next appointment!

I am extremely nervous of the dentist, I came yesterday to have root canal and other treatments done which was a very long appointment for someone who’s scared. I decided to be sedated and the experience was brilliant ( can’t remember much) I never thought I would have a laugh in the dentist whilst having a cannula done 😵‍💫 but everything was relaxed, cate and the dental nurse ( sorry can’t remember your name) you was both brilliant with me and made me feel so comfortable. Thankyou and see you again in 5 weeks 🦷 🧚

I am extremely nervous and anxious about even stepping foot in a dentist but everyone at Southport road dental made me feel super comfortable. I chose to be sedated for my treatment and the procedure from start too end was painless and more importantly I was at ease. Can’t thank you all enough especially Rashmi and her team. Thank you all again 😊

I have a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist. A friend recommended Southport Road Dental. After the initial consultation, I was given a very clear treatment plan. The dentist, Cate, has been very patient with me, she helped me to remain calm. Cate went through every procedure with me on each visit. She would check I'm ok throughout the appointment. Each dental nurse I've had in the room has been very kind and supportive. Cate's kind, calm and professional approach helped to put me at ease and trust in her. after several appointments, my oral health is now back on track and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you to Cate and the team.

If you are a nervous patient, I highly recommend Southport Road Dental.

I contacted David 8 months before my wedding day, hoping he could give me straight white teeth! He did not let me down! I was in the chair having my braces fitted withing days, after our first email. I was a little nervous but David made me feel comfortable and reassured.
He took the braces off 3 weeks before the wedding then quickly got me set up with teeth whitening.
I spent the whole day of my wedding smiling! Knowing that my teeth looked amazing! A friend came to me and said 'every picture I have, you have a massive smile on your face' you should always smile on your wedding day but without the help from David I would have felt uncomfortable smiling with my old teeth!!
Thank you so much!!! I love them!!!!

I cannot praise this dentist practice enough. I have in the past had bad experiences from dentists and this has made me very apprehensive, to say the least, with visiting dentists. I was that worried about going to the dentist, I have suffered for years and used strong pain killers instead of sorting the problem. Being in pain was no way to live so I decided enough was enough. My partner found Southport Road Dental for me as they advertise pain free dentistry. Given my past experiences I was very sceptical but being in pain again, I needed help. My consultation went well, everyone I met was friendly and my dentist Richa Sharma was amazing, taking time to make me feel calm and relaxed. As I had expected I required a couple of extractions and a filling which were then booked in. I must admit I didn't think I would be able to pluck up the courage to go back but I did to start my treatment. They advertise pain free dentistry and that is exactly what you get. Richa Sharma Is absolutely amazing. She has an amazing knack of being able to make you feel relaxed, explains everything and goes at a pace you are comfortable with. So far I have had one extraction and a filling and have felt nothing during the procedure. I still have more treatment and at the time of writing this, I am psyching myself up for today's visit.
I just want to say a huge thank you to Richa and not forgetting Richa's assistant, (I do hope that is the right term) who is absolutely lovely. Thank you to everyone at Southport Road Dental, a truly amazing dentist.

Conscious Sedation.
Rashmi and David are the most empathic and patient centred Dentists I have ever experienced…
When Rashmi offered conscious sedation as a possible solution to my inability to access root canal treatment, I was resistant to say the least!
However, Rashmi allayed every fear I had and explained the safety aspects/risks/benefits of conscious sedation for patients like myself, who could otherwise face losing their teeth.
I have had 3 conscious sedations for root canal treatments in the last few months. I wish I had accessed it earlier by trusting Rashmi’s Experience, professionalism, patience and genuine care…
Following the sedations I had no recollections of the treatment which is a Huge benefit to anxious patients like me. All 3 sedations were positive experiences enhanced by the amazing team at Southport road - Julie and Lindsey the sedation nurses were calm, reassuring and warmly supportive, as were all the other staff present during my treatments! Rashmi performed the sedations whilst David expertly completed the root canal treatments…
I am eternally grateful to you all for getting me out of pain and saving my teeth - You’re absolute legends!

i couldn't recommend them enough, I phoned up for an emergency appointment this morning as an unregistered patient and was been seen to by 10.30. Everybody was helpful, friendly and supportive after having one of my back teeth removed. Thanks guys for this morning and I'll be back for my check up soon

After years of hiding my teeth and hating myself in photos I took the plunge and went to david at southport road who really put me at ease. He gave me options, advised me on the best ways to straighten my smile and even put me at ease when I needed a small tooth extracted. One of my biggest worries!
I love the results after a year of braces. I feel so much better about my smile. Its given me some of my confidence back. The staff really looked after me in this time and I could not be more pleased

Where do I start with Southport Road Dental Practice?
They are amazing! From start to finish! I used to be an extremely nervous patient but David reassured me that I had nothing to worry about! They were gentle and having the braces put on and removed didn’t hurt in the slightest. I’ve always hated my smile so I hid it for years but now I’ve had them straightened and whitened I can’t stop smiling!
Couldn’t recommend David enough! I probably talk about Southport Road Dental Practice every week!
Thank you so much for making me love my smile!!

Best Dentist I’ve ever been to! I felt really safe as they have given me emotional support as well. I had to have an emergency tooth extraction as my whole cheek was very swollen. They really made sure that I no longer feel anything before proceeding with the procedure. I didn’t even realise that the tooth was already out. Thank you very much Marc, and his assistant. I unfortunately didn’t get her name but she was a star as well, both of them were!

22:37 10 Mar 22

I was seen as an emergency. Bad infection and tooth needed removing. It was a little tricky to remove but Richa did an amazing job, put me at ease and was really reassuring and the reatment was pain free!! 😁 Richa and the dental assistant were both lovely and understanding didn't rush and listened to any worry i had. I have now booked in with Richa as a new patient. All staff I met in the practice from reception to treatment room fantastic. Thank you Southport Road Dental.

I hadn't been anywhere near a dentist since I was forced to go as a child. I dont know how I managed to go through my 20's and 30's without problems with my teeth, they were lovely and clean with no fillings. My gums however where not doing so well, I used to spit large amounts of blood when I cleaned my teeth but just chose to ignore it.

I am a needle phobic, something I have really struggled with for years and have some pretty horrific memories of sitting in that dentist chair.

I reached a point where I needed to try and move forward with my dental phobia, my luck would run out at some point and I didnt want to have to approach a new dentist in an emergency situation. I needed to find someone I could open up to and trust. Someone to work through options and treatments with me step by step.

I got in touch with Southport Road Dental in Chorley as they provide sedation dentistry as an option for nervous patients. Rashmi and her team could not have been more welcoming, understanding, knowledgeable and professional. I didnt feel judged having neglected my gums and that was so important to me. From the initial consultation right through my treatment pathway I have been cared for to an exceptionally high standard, Rashmi went above and beyond.

The sedation worked really well and was painless. Even though I still have anxieties, Rashmi has been there for me every step of the way and we can continue to work on keeping regular appointments and moving forward.

This dental practice and not only saved me losing my teeth but has changed my outlook on my oral health and general well being.

For any dental phobics out there, please dont hesitate to give them a call. You don't even sit in the dentist chair for the first appointment. Just go and have a coffee and a chat and see what they could do for you. I promise you wont regret it.

A heart felt THANK YOU to Rashmi and Southport Road Dental. You're AMAZING.

I couldn't thank David and the team enough for transforming my smile and (not to sound dramatic) but my life too! I've honestly not stopped smiling since and having straight teeth has made me feel so much more confident in myself.

It's a big decision to get braces at 27 but after looking at myself on Zoom calls for months, I knew I had to do something!

I'd been to other orthodontists for an initial consultation but I was confident from my first contact with David (via the virtual consultation email), I knew I could put my trust in him.

The braces were really discreet and the treatment throughout was pain free, which I was surprised and very happy with! The whole team were always very friendly and put me at ease throughout the whole process. I wouldn't say I look forward to going to the dentist, but I never felt nervous either which is definitely a good sign.

I can honestly now say that getting braces and getting them with Southport Road Dental was the best decision of my life. Thank you so much!

I cannot recommend Southport Road Dental enough, they are outstanding. Very professional, modern high quality dentistry & pain free. Met David and Rashmi about 10 years ago and they treated me then with a very personal and caring approach. David has just carried out a very complex procedure on me and I can only say my experience was definitely 5 stars. David and Rashmi in my opinion are by far the best I have come across. Also many thanks to everyone else I and my wife have seen ie Michelle (Hygienist) & all the nurses & receptionist. Thank you.

So pleased as a family we have chosen Southport Rd for all our dentistry work from regular check ups and hygienist appointments .
David and his team are so approachable professional and friendly.
Recently we have received some amazing cosmetic work - teeth straightening, veneer replacements, composite and whitening work …. David’s attention to detail has been second to none we are so pleased with the finished results … and of course all pain free !
Thank you … big smiles from us !

Alex Kenyon

14:19 18 Aug 21

From start to finish David and the rest of the team have been so welcoming, helpful and professional. I was dreading my first appointment a little but I didn’t need to at all. David has done exactly what I wanted to my teeth and there was no pain at all!
I would highly recommend this practise over and over please go for an appointment you will be very happy with the service and result! Amazing work!
All the staff really care about you too.

17:07 22 Jul 21

Thank you so much for my new smile , highly recommended, everyone at the surgery are friendly and professional and nothing is too much trouble for them, David was recommended to me by another dentist and I can totally understand why.the care, information and attention to detail while dealing with an anxious patient was perfect and I’m now a proud owner of dental implants I couldn’t be happier. I was so impressed by the surgery I asked for them to see my grandson who has never been a fan of the dentist , infact I’d actually go as far as saying he’s petrified,again I was not let down, his dentist was Mark and for a ten year old to walk out and say “grandma that dentist was really nice thank you for taking me there “was something I thought I’d never hear and means so much.
Thank-you everyone you are simply the best at what you do.

Harriet Watson

11:59 14 May 21

Before I met Rashmi I hadn't been to a dentist in over 4 years. Due to my strong gagging reflex and an extreme nervousness: the idea of going to a dentist was simply not something I could comprehend. However having waited in the waiting room at the surgery in the past; so knowing a bit about it and feeling relatively OK in the surgery and knowing they dealt with extremely nervous patients, I decided to give it a try. I'm really pleased that I did. The treatment I got from and continue to get from Rashmi and the entire team is simply amazing. I am still nervous but I trust her and the team implicitly. She worked with me; talked me through everything and alleviated my fears as much as she was able to; without me feeling judged. The whole team is friendly and welcoming and it is just a wonderful practice. It is not a practice that feels clinical, which to me helped enormously but at the same same the work is done to the highest level. I would highly recommend the whole team but especially Rashmi. For any patients who feel exceedingly nervous; this is without a doubt the place to go. Thank you so much to everyone at Southport Road dental practice. Xx ❤😊☺

I am very nervous about going to the dentist but I had to go as I was in pain. My husband and I did our research and Southport Road Dental scored highly on the satisfaction scale. I was helped with my anxiety and my treatment went very well. Rashmi and Lyndsay couldn't have looked after me better, they are a great team. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very patient and caring. I now feel a lot better about my teeth and my appearance in general. Keep up the great work and thank you.

I’ve never been so happy with my smile !! I had my teeth straightened, whitened and I had 2 teeth removed and felt absolutely nothing! I was so scared and nervous about having teeth removed but David make me feel so comfortable and reassured me I would be ok and I was. I can’t believe I’m saying this but if I needed another tooth taken out I wouldn’t think twice about it now ! I can’t recommend Southport road dental enough they are miracle workers I absolutely love my teeth now! All the staff are so lovely and welcoming I’ve never felt so comfortable at the dentist before. Thank you so much for everything :)

I am absolutely over the moon that I chose Southport Road Dentist for Root Canal and Crown. I was really nervous about having such work done as only had ever had a filling before.

I am always extremely impressed by the very attentive staff at Southport Road. Throughout life I have been an extremely anxious patient but at Southport Road I am always treated with the utmost care. The staff never rush me and are keen to explain and take the time needed to give me the confidence to proceed with treatment. Linzi, one of the nurses, recently assisted Alice, one of the dentist's, when I needed impressions for whitening my teeth. Thanks so much to both of them for their kindness and patience throughout. This practice is lovely, especially if you have anxiety. Believe me, Southport Road has proven that nothing has to hurt anymore!

I cannot recommend Southport Dental enough. I’ve had a lot of work done, including tooth removal, bone grafts and implants. Everything was explained beforehand and throughout and everybody made me feel at ease. I was very nervous when I first stared going so I was sedated for some of the work but after a few treatments I was able to have the rest of the work done without sedation. Thank you to David for his amazing work, he really is a genius! And thank you to the very kind dental nurse who held my hand when I needed it! You guys have done incredible work and made me very happy. Thank you.

My journey started over a year ago with wanting implants and being to different dentist over the years David and his team had a task on their hands ! Well what can I say, from the first initial consultation I was put at ease and given an in-depth plan. Each visit from being greeted by reception to dental nurse assistants to David himself working hard to keep me at ease to help me not just eat properly but more importantly SMILE once again with ease !
Thankyou x

22:42 04 Nov 19

I came to Southport Road Dental because I was SO scared about visiting the dentist.
My experience here can only be described as life changing!
From meeting Maria to talk about what I wanted to achieve by coming to the surgery to being seen by Rashmi and the team, who treated me with care and patience, listening and taking time to understanding my fears and giving me a clear treatment plan that would help improve my oral health.
I can now smile without being embarrassed about my teeth, feel confident that I know how to look after them through proper brushing techniques and more importantly, have a functioning relationship with a dentist I trust will keep me pain free and help me to make informed decisions about my care moving forward.

If you’re thinking about making appointment, don’t put it off any longer- I promise this will be the best decision you make!

Wow! I had two wisdom teeth removed and was very nervous having been told it’s a major job. Well what a load of tosh. I didn’t feel a thing and it was over quickly. The only nerves I felt were in my head, not my mouth! Totally pain free. Thanks a lot Mark and his nurse helped settle my nervousness and if anything he could of said “It’s easy mate”, because it was. Thanks a lot! ♥️👊

Can't thank the team here at Southport rd dental practice enough, id had a really bad time loosing 3 teeth in the space of 9 months due to a difficult extraction which left me with nerve damage and in chronic pain. I'd lost all faith in dentists until I was recommended by a friend to try here, they have not only restored my mouth and given me my smile back but they have also restored my faith in dentists, they are a fabulous talented amazing team, can't thank them enough.

Initially I went to SRD to have my teeth straightened, I was so pleased with the results and treatment that I received that I registered myself and my husband with the practice for all of our dental care. Thanks to David I am no longer conscious about the appearance of my teeth; he has restored my smile and I am thrilled to bits. Tonight I had my first check up and hygienist appointment. I am amazed at the level of care and high standard of treatment that I received. Everything was thoroughly explained and I did not feel anything during my treatment with the hygienist. I don’t know how you do it but treatment really is pain free. I have recommended this practice to friends and family who will be getting in touch soon. Thank you so much to David and his team.
See you in 6 months 😁

Having a cleft palate and, as a result my jaws cut to bits/resectioned amongst other things, I *have* to have a good dentist. It's like the NHS handed me this £x00,000 piece of art - and I'm totally not to be trusted to look after it! I've seen David for years and every single element of my dental health is meticulously monitored and managed. But this dedication applies across the entire team - there's no panic if David isn't available, as Rashmi is perfectly happy picking up any dramas and handles them just as professionally. Supported by the amazing Reception and admin teams nothing is ever a crisis. I cannot speak highly enough of them in keeping my expensive work-of-art in top condition.

But also the dedication and attention to detail from the Hygienists is amazing. I've had *many* dental cleans in my life, but Michelle is absolutely *incredible* and the best ever. She works so hard and meticulously goes over every very single one of my weird and dodgy cracks-and-crevices and owns the entire cleaning process with me - you come back with serious homework to undertake between visits, and that suits me absolutely. Do not ever let Michelle leave! 😍

Hopefully, with the help of everyone at SRD my NHS £x00,000 investment will remain in excellent condition to my end-of-days ... I wouldn't trust anyone else! 💞

Absolutely brilliant . Fitted me in as an emergency when my usual dentist couldn't.
Lovely receptionist , very kind as I was feeling sick due to dental abscess. Dentist explained everything / didn't feel a thing , even injection as he used numbing gel prior to injection. Drilled , cleaned out & packed tooth with dressing. Will be changing to this dentist even though it's 30mins from home ,

I cannot believe the difference going to this dentist has made to me, when I initially attended to discuss a possible brace i basically had a meltdown a tooth had fallen out and i just didn't know what to do i was truly unhappy with the appearance of my teeth and didn't feel that would change , I also hadn't found a dentist who I felt was really helping me ...A year later and I've just had my brace taken off and I'm a truly different person because of it. Dr David Hickey and all the amazing staff have been friendly, supportive , informative and helpful ...I wouldn't dream about going anywhere else now and recommend this practice to everyone. Thank you so much!

I can't thank David and the team enough for getting me over the fear! I had really traumatizing experiences at the dentist as a child, even being held down by one before! Which left me growing up very nervous and always anxious about having any treatment, not to mention I'm a wimp when it comes to pain, so I avoided going..
Im so pleased with my smile. I wouldn't go any where else now, even for just a quick check up. It's such a welcoming, and friendly place, and really is pain free!! Thank you again David.

I’d just like to say a massive thank you to David and the team for my new and amazing straight teeth! It’s one of the best things I’ve ever done. When you have children you no longer tend to focus on yourself, they always come first but I decided that this would be the one thing I really wanted to do for me! I couldn’t be happier, they look fab and I can’t stop smiling 😁😬🤗 made up!!! Sarah xxxx

Thank you so much to David and team for totally tranforming my teeth in less than a year. I unfortunately cracked my teeth as a child and spent all my teens hating them. The top right picture is before, then with my clear braces (which nobody could tell), after they came off and finally after composite bonding to fix the 2 front teeth. I don't normally write reviews (and they aren't the most flattering photos) but I wanted to recommend to everyone. I have referred all my friends who have asked and trust they will be delighted too! Thanks to you I've completely gained my confidence back in my smile. 😁😁😁

Southport Road Dental practice was recommended to me by a friend who had just finished her treatment. I can honestly say from start to finish the process was smooth and totally pain free. The reception team/dental nurses are a credit to the practice, they are all very polite and well mannered. I would mostly like to thank David. He is fantastic, he kept me at ease throughout the whole process and I can’t thank him and the practice team enough for keeping those dentistry anxieties at bay. Thanks again for giving me my new smile for my wedding Day in April! I highly recommend!!!

I first went to Southport Road Dental a year ago after my own NHS Dental receptionist told me I couldn't be seen about a cracked tooth one Friday morning because I wasn't in pain, but I should ring after the weekend to be triaged!
I was drawn to them because of the 'painfree' aspect and I've found that they certainly live up to it.
I usually see Alice and she always puts me at ease. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming and I'd recommend this practice to anyone and it's definitely worth the trip from Southport to me!

Went yesterday on an emergency appointment. Alice and Lynzi were fantastic. Very friendly and put me totally at ease. Can't thank Alice enough for freeing me from a lot of pain. I thoroughly recommend this practice ��

Kath Barton

I'm absolutely terrified of dentists. It's the only phobia at 58 years old I cannot get a grip on.
I found Southport Road Dental on line and liked the 'pain free' focus.
I have now had 3 appointments and can honestly say although not major treatments for someone as nervous as me treatments of any kind are a major stresser.
My appointments have been handled with professionalism, empathy and care. I have felt in control at all times and have full confidence in their handling of my treatments.
I still have a way to go to get my smile at its best but I'm a lot closer than I was last month!
Thank you to all the team for supporting me through this.
I'd recommend you to everyone.

Amazing treatment for a very scared 9 year old last week from Alice and all the staff at Southport Road Dental.

If your fear of visiting a dentist takes over your life. If you are too embarrassed to smile. If you are too afraid to brush your teeth in case you lose some of your teeth. If people look at the state of your mouth rather than look at you when you 'have' to talk to someone. If you fear you will get a lecture from the dentist when you've plucked up courage to think about booking an appointment. WORRY NO MORE THIS IS THE SURGERY TO GO TO ASAP. That's me above ! I wouldn't even smile on our daughter's wedding day for the photos !! I beg you to see these wonderful people. I'm NOT a family member or close family friend, I'm an extremely anxious person as far as dental treatment is concerned. 22nd July 2016 I had every tooth PAINLESSLY numbed and spent at least 45 mins in the hygienists chair listening to my music through their headphones so I couldn't hear the tools being used ! I then spent another 40 mins or so with Rashmie (David's wife) planning treatment and having rays. I didn't feel a thing - not even my nose !!! Please don't fear the dentist anymore, I'm not saying my fear has completely disappeared as I'm having 6 teeth removed this Friday and never had that under local so yes, I'm afraid of the unknown I'm only human after all, but I know for certain that every appointment after that will be a doddle (and when & if ever necessary again for whatever reason TOTALLY PAIN FREE). I know for sure that when I've paid off my bill I will get my husband off his NHS dentist's list straight to Southport Dental practice, these are the caring non judgemental people you need and want to look after your smile - if you don't have one, you will have soon, just like I will ☺

I can't recommend this dental practice highly enough. All the staff are lovely and welcoming, which immediately reduces stress levels! My dentist, Gonzalo, is absolutely fantastic- very professional, meticulous attention to detail and a warm, empathic manner. The recent extraction I had was completely pain and trauma free. After a number of unpleasant experiences at other dental practices in the area, I think I'm finally regaining my trust in the dental profession!

Danielle Eadie

18:57 14 Jul 16

As the other reviews mentioned this is a great dentist & I would definitely recommend! I'm no longer terrified of the dentist!

I have been in Show business nearly 40 years (good grief, that long !!) I sing, so need my teeth to look as good and white as possible, I have previously had two excellent dentist, one when I was young and a Harley street Specialist. I found David on the internet, and am I pleased, Over the years I have had all kinds of procedures to my teeth and gums more root canals than I have roots and Brunel would have been amazed at my bridge work. However the passage of time meant I needed major repair work done, and wow although I am still having treatment, I am totally impressed with the work done. Nothing is too much trouble and pain free is the truth. Implants, easy, no pain........and I can smile again. So if you are looking to find the perfect answer to any dental problems, look no further, you have found the best. If this sounds over the top, quite right, you will not find better. thank you, very very much.

Has to be special for me to write a review!!
From walking in, receptionist - great
But the service, treatment and reassurance received from Rashmi was 2nd to none.
Never been a huge fan of going to the dentists and always make an excuse to postpone but since finding southport road dental surgery I've now regained my faith and confidence. Thank you!

Pam Palmer

08:33 03 Dec 15

Can't recommend Southport Road Dental practice highly enough....Rashmi and David are a brilliant team and their patience is astonishing. From someone thoroughly traumatised following a car accident, and needing dental work, they were fantastic to me from beginning to end and I now have a lovely new crown. Doesn't perhaps sound like a 'biggie' but given my massive gag reflex, it meant the world to have the understanding and care offered by these lovely people. You have a new customer! Thanks

Janet Sawyer

17:48 19 Nov 15

I hadnt been to the dentist for 35 years. I became determined and saw this practice on line as good for dealing with nervous patients. After the first visit as was so surprised at how lovely they all are, patient, caring and not rushed. After a couple of visits I had 2 teeth removed. Without sedation. I will be going back. They are amazing and I will continue to recommend them x

I couldn’t be happier with my full smile makeover and the entire experience from start to finish. Every member of staff was so warm, welcoming, and professional throughout the whole process, which immediately put me at ease. I was extremely nervous about the needles, but I can honestly say the... treatment was completely pain-free, I didn’t feel any pain at all. David was absolutely amazing from beginning to end and his attention to detail and perfectionism truly show in the final result. Thanks to him and the team, I can finally smile again without feeling self-conscious. If I could sum up this dentist in one word, it would simply be: amazing.read more

I hadn’t been to the dentist for many years and it was seeing all the good reviews about Southport Road Dental Practice that encouraged me to make my first appointment. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. There was no judgment, no sales pitches and no pain. Just honest, professional advice. I wish... I’d gone sooner. I can highly recommend both Cate and Sarah.read more

We started taking my daughter to Southport Road when she was a child as she had become really nervous of going to the dentist. The whole team were so kind and patient, they were amazing with her, and now the whole family go there. About 18 months ago I decided I would like to have my teeth... straightened to improve my smile: Marc explained the process really clearly to me and used sure smile aligners to reposition any badly aligned teeth, and composite edge bonding to give each tooth a better shape. I’ve been delighted with the results. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this practise, whether it’s for treatment needed to deal with dental pain or for cosmetic treatment.read more

I have been visiting Southport Road Dental for approximately 12 years. Since moving away from the area, I have continued to use the practice despite the 120 mile round trip! This alone is a testament to the confidence I have in David and his team.Due to my travel time, I always arrive for... appointments early and am usually greeted by Lucia in reception who is lovely.David is the ultimate professional and has a brilliant manner. On a number of occasions, I have contacted David regarding unexpected dental concerns. David has responded with appropriate advice or has been willing to see me at short notice. One such occasion was quite recently when I emailed David regarding a tooth that had started to ache. Twelve months earlier, David had predicted that this tooth would require some attention on my next visit. David’s prediction was accurate and a few days later I was sitting in his chair having root canal treatment. I can honestly say that this procedure which was quite intrusive was totally pain free. Even in the following days I experienced no soreness whatsoever. David has now completed this treatment with a crown and I am confident that this will last for years to come!Since visiting Southport Road Dental, I have regularly seen Rebecca who is the hygienist. Rebecca is also lovely and totally professional and considerate of the patients’ needs. I had never seen a hygienist previously and thanks to Rebecca my oral health has improved considerably.My experience at Southport Road dental has always been amazing and I would have no hesitation in recommending David and his team.read more

No more sleepless nights when your appointment is looming. No more heart racing with anxiety whilst waiting for your name to be called.Ive recommend Mark to all my family and friends and they all have good things to say about how they felt and are very pleased with their treatment.My teeth look and feel fantastic.I wish that I had come across this practice years ago, it would have saved me a lot of pain and suffering and stress.I highly recommend Mark and this practice.read more

WOW! What a *GREAT* day at the dentist (and I don’t know how many people can say that).I firstly need to say I’m a ‘professional’ on what excellent, knowledgeable dental care is having been born with a cleft palate/lip. I can’t afford not to have *the* best dentist after 20yrs of surgeries to... build a face, which included surgery to take my jaws apart and put them back together in a different order. Southport Road dental have been the ongoing custodians of my dental miracle for many years and the knowledge, awareness and joined-up care from all the team (including hygienists) has always been outstanding.I know about ‘painful’ and ‘pain-free’ dentistry. At Southport Road Dental I don’t ever even have a tensing of my fingers (or the second sign, tension in calves/feet!) no matter what the complexity of work. It truely is pain-free and everyone from Reception to all the dentistry teams will treat you with the utmost care and respect from the start of your engagement with them.The teams are *so* knowledgeable about the most complex dental procedures - you can tell for everyone this a vocation not just a job. Each time I go I learn more and more about the miraculous jaw surgery I had, and the team are the most professional support crew I could hope for to make sure everything stays in good shape. But on this visit I needed a crown to replace an old amalgam filling. … It was an amazing and fascinating experience!Firstly, you literally never feel anything - even the dental injections to numb the areas are not felt, never mind the actual work. David then showed me the incredible technology they use - firstly to scan my mouth/teeth in 3D/colour - then how he uses that image to create the unique, individual-to-me crown that will have a perfect bite. Once he’s programmed the scanner it shows an image of the crown, how it’s perfectly moulded to fit my tooth and also shaped for the perfect bite. He takes a small block of the dental material to another machine where it’s automatically cut from the scanned image. It’s then fired at tremendous temperature so it will be stronger than my natural teeth and when cooled it’s fitted (including other amazing processes for fixing in place). And after David finished a few final polishings you instantly have the perfect bite. And all without feeling a thing from start to finish!I’m the F1-professional-Driver level of dentistry Client - I *have* to have a support crew as expert, knowledgeable and efficient as *the* best F1 Pit Crew ever, and Southport Road Dental have always been that partner for me for many years. From ongoing maintenance and cleaning advice with the hygienists, to expert monitoring and advice on my complex dental ‘artefacts’ to keep the miraculous gift I was given by surgeons many years ago in excellent shape.Today it was an absolute privilege to see ‘behind the scenes’ at the levels of their expert knowledge and it’s blown me away. And that takes some doing for someone who has been through what I have.I can guarantee to you this standard of service isn’t limited to one Dentist or one Hygienist, it’s a team standard and those high standards apply right through the Reception teams also. If you need a truly professional and truly pain-free Dentist this is the place. Just for interest, the photos attached is the incredible machine cutting/making my crown that David had designed. It’s not often you can say ‘I’ve had a *GREAT* day at the dentist’ but today I have. Thank you to all the team! 💕read more

I can't recommend this team more highly...from booking to procedure I was treated with the utmost care. The Best Team!I went in with a long-standing fear of the dentist and came out feeling calm, confident and pain free. From the first appointment, Rashmi was compassionate, patient, and never... dismissive of my anxiety. She explained each step, checked in often, and made the entire experience surprisingly comfortable. This practice has genuinely changed how I feel about dental care. If you’re nervous or fearful, this is the dentist you want.read more

I can’t recommend Southport Road Dental practice enough and in particular Alice. I was totally terrified of the dentist following a few bad experiences as a child and had put off attending for a VERY long time. I desperately wanted to get my broken front tooth fixed so that I wasn’t so self... conscious of it. When I first visited Alice in October she immediately calmed my nerves. She always lets me know what is going to happen prior to doing anything and having now had a lovely front crown fitted I am actually happy to smile again. I am delighted with the final results. I haven’t experienced any pain whatsoever throughout the work done so far.If you’re considering going to the dentist, be brave and go here they’re brilliant!Thank you so much Alice and also your dental nurses, you’re all amazing 🤩read more

Please make an appointment for a chat if you are nervous or scared of dentists. I haven't seen a dentist for over 40 yrs as I shake and cry etc even going through the door. I had left it till desperate as worried I was losing my teeth. I arrived with my husband shaking and crying Kate was amazing... so quietly spoken and calm took examination very slowly at my pace. I have just been back for treatment under sedation which was much better for me everything went brilliant.I can't praise this surgery enough I am even going back for a follow up. Can't thank Kate enough.Kath Embleton.read more

My dentist Jennifer took the time to ensure I was comfortable with the treatment I was receiving by explaining the process clearly and calming my nerves. Jennifer made the whole process painless and easy. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome.... The practice itself is stunning, clean and staff are professional yet friendly which again makes the experience of going to the dentist much easier. Would highly recommend!read more

I cannot recommend Cate, Alice and the team enough. Having a lifelong fear of dental treatment they made me feel at ease and well cared for. On my way to having a smile I can be proud of.

Truly pain free, and so reassuring for nervous patients like me!I've been terrified of going to the dentist for as long as I remember, and have refused to go for over 10 years (despite shattering a tooth).I live miles away from the practice but the reviews and pain free promise made me... comfortable enough to at least go for a consultation.I'm so glad I did. David was incredibly friendly and reassured me from the start. He had a speedy look in my mouth and I had a few x-rays including the remnants of my shattered tooth. It was relieving to find out I had a lot less problems than I had expecting.Knowing my nervousness, he suggested I see the hygienist first and explained that the only sensation would be a little water in the mouth. Rebecca was so patient (sorry I kept you late) and made me feel at ease during the process. I'm genuinely looking forward to next hygienist appointment. My teeth felt so much cleaner after this.I also needed a couple of fillings and the remnants of that tooth removing. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't terrified for this. David did a great job of making me feel at ease when we discussed the treatment (although I forgot it all when I was stressing about it at home).I thought pain free would be just a cutesie saying and it would still hurt a bit. I genuinely didn't feel a thing. No pain from the needle, as I was numbed before it, no pain from the fillings (my fave part) and no pain from the extraction (took him all of 30 seconds).I can't thank everyone at the practice enough. Everyone has been absolutely lovely. I'd recommended in a heartbeat, especially if your nervous and getting back into the dentist like I was.read more

I had been having loads of issues trying to find anywhere to help with my wisdom teeth and other issues. They helped me get seen a quickly and was able to get everything sorted within a short time. Patrick Hesketh was very kind and gentle making sure i wasn’t in any pain and gave me steps on where... they where at the whole time. The removal didn’t take long and was in no pain even a few days after just mild aches. Everything was so amazing and my life will improve massively without the daily pain. Dearly thank you to all the kind staff and helpful reception team.🩷read more

Woke up with severe toothache on Tuesday morning, rang Southport Road Dental at 10 am, appointment booked for 11 am and tooth extracted by 11:30 am. Unbelievable level of service and Kate the dentist was brilliant. She quickly arrived at and understood my dental problem and provided the correct... solution. Very gentle, ensuring I had no pain and talked me through the procedure. Faultless! I even got a phone call the following morning to check everything still ok. Private dental service at its best. Thank you allread more

I recently had a crown fitted at Southport Road Dental Practice, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. The entire process—from start to finish—was completed in just two hours and was completely painless. I was amazed at how efficient and comfortable it all was.What made the... experience even more impressive is that a colleague of mine is currently six weeks into getting a crown fitted elsewhere—and they've paid the same amount as I did, thanks to my dental plan. They're still waiting for the final fitting, while I walked out the same day with a perfectly fitted crown and zero discomfort.David is absolutely fantastic. He’s incredibly patient, treats every patient as an individual, and makes sure you never feel rushed. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and calmly, which really helps to put you at ease. His professional yet warm manner truly inspires confidence—you can tell you're in good hands.I’d recommend Southport Road Dental Practice to anyone looking for high-quality, efficient, and compassionate dental care.read more

Absolutely brilliant! Rashmi and her team took me from being an extremely nervous patient who would not even have a scale and polish without IV sedation and fear of the needle to having 6 extractions in one go with only the needle and no sedation! I cannot recommend them... enough❤️Another challenge😳 loose tooth, couldn't fit partial denture in, early flight following day, having a breakdown and scared of the dentist 😳 however from the moment I made the call to Southport Road I knew I would be OK, was seen by Mark as an emergency and within 10 minutes the tooth was out and everything was back to normal I cannot speak more highly of them, everyone of the staff there plays a part in helping you through your fears. I would not go anywhere else and cannot thank them enough💗read more

It wasTwenty years since I last attended a dentist appointment, not because I couldn't find a dentist but because of sheer fear of dentists which was due to having a bad experience. I felt physically sick if anyone mentioned a dentist in passing conversation and I felt like a big softie but the... fear and how I felt kept me away for all of them years.I started to have niggles in my teeth and discomfort and plucked up the courage to research online, even doing the research sent me into a trembling mess. I came accross the Pain free dentist in Chorley and read all about the treatments and the reviews left by patients, which were amazing and I thought if they could do it, then so could I. I contacted the dentist and on first impressions the dental receptionist was warm and caring and understood how I felt. I made my appointment and was met by Kate the dentist. We discussed my fears in depth and my trust started to grow slowly as she understood and listened to me.My treatment was for an extraction, filling and descale, as I had gum disease too. I agreed to return for treatment but we agreed that the sedation would be the best route for me. Again this was discussed in depth and health checks were done.On the day of my treatment, even though I was nervous, I didnt feel sick and I slept the night prior to treatment day. Kate had gone through my treatment and I knew what was going to happen. Kate and her assistant were welcoming and reassuring and before I new it I was being sedated. I don't really remember anything from the treatment other than them checking my pulse and blood pressure. Then my husband was there to collect me and I went home.The whole experience has changed my concept on dentists, I have a follow up soon and will continue with further treatment needed. Wow, I cannot believe the difference in me and visiting a dentist. There is still a journey to go on but I have total trust in Kate and the team.I wasn't in any pain or discomfort during my treatment and a minute amount of pain after the treatment, nothing a paracetamol couldn't sort out.I totally get why they are called a pain free dentist and I am so glad I found them and plucked up the courage to contact them.read more
