Walking into the clinic it didn't feel like your typical dentist at all. Greeted by Alex on reception who was lovely. I then met Dr Matthew to go through what would be happening & he could sense my nerves but he was so kind & down to earth that within minutes those nerves were gone. I told him a bit about why I got into the mess I had in the first place which was an excessive addiction to caffeine that I don't miss anymore as that's what caused the damage that led to me having the temporary dentures I have now. Going into the surgery with him & the nurse Rosie I think as the initial conversation with him had eased my nerves the whole process was so relaxed. He looked at my current situation and he agreed that my current dentures weren't in the best state so it was decided to go for the implants & a referral was put in place for this to happen. He said he was happy to see me if the implants turn out not to be a viable option to replace my current dentures with ones that are better fitting as well as being of a much better quality than what I currently have which is something I'm definitely going to 100% get done as I want something there so I can smile better & be more confident as with how quickly the current dentures were done by my previous dentist roughly 4 years ago they are now loose, poorly fitting & making me feel fed up. I'm confident enough in saying that Dr Matthew is an absolute legend & n I'llot pushy in any way I think his kindness has made me want to officially sign up with this practice as he is the guy to go and see for anyone feeling nervous & anxious like myself . Honestly 5* does not do this place enough. If a higher rating was available then I would give it easily. For someone who had a fear of the dentist this was such a great experience. Would recommend this place to anyone

All staffwere really pleasant and helped to ease any nerves. Very thorough and transparent initial assessment including x-rays and scanning as part of the service. You can see everything the dentist can and he talked me through it. Then explained what was possible and what the options were giving me time to consider what to do next. Thanks to the team

Can’t fault the service I received for an emergency appointment! Easy to book and even had space to move up my appointment. The decor is beautiful and helped me feel relaxed. I am a super anxious person and hadn’t been to a dentist in a while but i was instantly made to feel at ease, Dr Stephen’s was amazing, and i felt so relaxed. Being able to watch netflix on a screen above my head while getting a filling definitely makes it feel a lot better. Thank you again!

I first visited Lateral dental clinic on the open day, with a view to finding a clinic that would provide me with the reassurance I needed. I was looking for a clinic that provided sedation, for nervous patients as I was really struggling with anxiety after having some bad experiences previously. I found Lateral dental clinic to be beautiful decorative, nothing remotely like the familiar dentist’s I’d been to. It was relaxing, calming and had a wonderful feeling about it. All the staff were friendly and made me feel very welcome. I chatted briefly to Dr Matthew and was impressed from the very beginning. Consequently resulting in a consultation to discuss my concerns and to talk through cosmetic options. Previously I’d had two consults with different dentists and both fell short of my expectations because they didn’t see what I did. Dr Matthew was the only one that told me exactly what I thought needed to be addressed, without prompting we were on the same page, very honest and very reassuring with realistic expectations. A few weeks later my smile transformation started. I arrived very nervous and apprehensive, I was made very welcome from the minute I arrived, and my nerves and anxiety soon disappeared. All the staff are super supportive, friendly and genuinely caring. My nervous first appointment turned out to be one of the best dental appointments I’ve ever had. Gone were my concern and fear and every appointment after that first, have been equally as impressive. Dr Matthew takes the time to explain every procedure, he is super gentle when administering anaesthetic (one of my phobias! ) and makes the whole process pleasurable, I soon got over the dentist chair anxiety and didn’t require any sedation on any visits, because of the understanding and care provided by each and every member of the team. My treatment is now complete and I absolutely love my new smile. The expertise of Dr Matthew and the relationship with his ceramicist has definitely demonstrated they are both very skilled and knowledgeable in delivering beautiful smiles. I cannot thank Lateral Dental Clinic enough for making every appointment pleasurable a massive endorsement from a once frightened patient. It’s been an absolute pleasure and I will look forward to seeing you for my yearly check ups without hesitation. AH

In my 27 years of life I think this was the best dental experience I've ever had. Honestly super impressed by the kindness of the staff, Doctor Mathew knew exactly how to help me, he didn't try to make me feel inferior in any way ! A very humble doctor. He was super kind and talked me through each step. Made me feel comfortable. They had a cool tv on the ceiling so I didn't have to just sit there. 10/10. Never thought I'd be leaving a dental practice a review but honestly had such a pleasant experience. I could see Dr Mathew was more interested on how to aid me rather than refer extra appointments or procedures. Absolute legend. I think his kindness has made me want to officially sign up with this practice. Keep up the great work guys 🙌

I needed a clean on very short notice and Lateral were kindly able to fit me in the day after I called. Everyone I dealt with was absolutely lovely and the facilities are beautiful, extremely modern and well-appointed. And I'm super pleased with the results, my teeth are very noticeably whiter without having to go through any whitening. Thanks very much!
