Leighton House Dental Practice

I was seen by Dr. Tahira Mussani for an emergency dental treatment. She was very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. The receptionist who was working on Friday is a joke, I had to call 3 times with the same question because I did not receive a promised phone call back; so when I called at 4.25pm the doctor left because the receptionist ignored her job commitments. The practice is closed on Saturdays and the receptionist said on Saturday the doctor is again in and will do my referral. I should check the opening hours to see that this Lady is a liar. I wouldn’t come there for a paying visit because the front of the house are not doing their job properly.

Dr Mussani is such a kind and honest dentist! She truly cares about her patience and does amazing work, she even saved my tooth! Unlike other dentists who suggests unnecessary treatments, she always gives honest advice and only does what's really needed. The whole team at the clinic is so friendly and welcoming. I am so happy I found this clinic and highly recommend it to everyone! Thank you Dr Mussani!

This dental practice is a joke Rude reception staff A manager who lies and doesn't care They have provided a bad level of service No communication You have to wait ages for a appointment Over a month even with a toothache I was promised after Dr massani refused to do root canal treatment That I can go back to them for free treatment to put a crown in I was told this buy reception staff manager and Dr massani Buy they were all lying ! I phoned up Leighton House To book the appointment for crown To be told I have a appointment for second of October But she has to confirm first!!? I replied why ? Was just fobbed off She rang up later to say she cannot do that appointment now Because Dr massani Doesn't have no 45 minute appointments So basically saying we cannot do your crown appointment I was annoyed told them so I will never use this surgury again Just warning people of the terrible service I have had Luckily I have found another dentist That takes nhs appointment Nearer to where I live And also offered me a appointment in four days not like this surgury That takes 4 weekes I appreciate there very busy But the staff and manager should not.say I can book a appointment to install a crown Then ring I ring I get told there are no appointment for 45 minutes Thank God I don't have to use this.practice again

I saw Dr Tahira Mussani on an urgent appointment as I had broken off a part of my tooth/filling. She was kind, friendly and explained everything clearly to me. She repaired it quickly and efficiently with a clear plan of what to do next. Thank you.

This was my first visit with this hygienist, and unfortunately, it will also be my last. She was noticeably rude and made me feel extremely uncomfortable throughout the session. As a patient, especially during a first time visit, I expected a welcoming and professional experience but instead, I left feeling unsettled and disrespected. I won’t be returning.

Having been had a bad experience at another dentist , and being in a lot of pain , I really needed some help , and Dr Mirzai really delivered . Professional , knowledgeable with a great manner , I cannot thank her and her assistant enough . From professional greeting at reception to booking next appointment really good all round dental experience .

Extremely Disappointed with Leighton House Dental Practice I’ve had several treatments at Leighton House Dental Practice with Dr. Tahira Musani, including fillings, root canal, and hygienist appointments, and I’m deeply unhappy with the service. My recent hygienist appointment was the worst experience yet. Dr. Musani’s approach was unnecessarily rough, leaving me in pain with significant bleeding—something I’ve never experienced after a hygienist appointment. Despite raising my discomfort midway and asking her to be gentler, she showed zero empathy or patience, continuing as if my concerns didn’t matter. At one point, with sharp tools and four hands in my mouth, she even told me to “relax my lip,” which was absurd under the circumstances. She later refused to proceed with my whitening trays, stating she didn’t feel “comfortable” because of how I spoke to her—despite me only politely raising my discomfort during the session. Her attitude is consistently short, blunt, and insincere, giving the impression that she just wants patients in and out as quickly as possible. There’s no genuine care, compassion, or customer service; it feels purely transactional. On a previous visit, she misled me into thinking my NHS entitlement didn’t cover a root canal, pushing me towards private treatment instead. This kind of dishonesty is unacceptable, especially for NHS patients. That said, the dental nurse assisting her was absolutely spot on—professional, supportive, and understanding throughout the appointment. It’s unfortunate that the issue was entirely with Dr. Musani. I’ve lost four hours of work due to these appointments, and the lack of professionalism and empathy from Dr. Musani has made me decide not to return. The manager, Cheryl, has promised to call me back on Monday, and I’ll update this review once I hear more. However, based on my experiences so far, I wouldn’t recommend Dr. Musani or this practice to anyone.

I'm always nervous about the dentist but the dentist here is really nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Dr Mussani and her team were brilliant from start to finish. I had always had fear of dentists and had a lot of work that needed doing. I was made to feel at ease and she was straight to the point, made me a plan and I have had all the major work that I needed. I would definitely recommend this dental surgery!

Quantized Inertia

I have been a patient of this dentist surgery for the past 10 years. Gladly, I didn’t have any problems and was also quite tide up with day to day life, so didn’t visit them for the past 3 years! Just two hours ago, my tooth broke in my mouth and pain started streaming from up and down. Called my dentist for help and explained my painful tooth, she ignored the conversation and just replied : You haven’t been with us for three years and so go where you went for your teeth. I explained that I didn’t go anywhere, she then replied I can only offer Friday which is in 3 days!!!!….is this normal to ignore your long term patient, specially when the person is In pain?!?! And react so cold and heartless towards someone in pain?!? Unfortunately, some people became dentist just to make money, and forget what they swore after graduation, to serve patient first!!! I have called a dentist in Finchley and they gave me their first appointment for tomorrow morning and she took 15 minutes of her time, just to me advise for tonight if the pain becomes unbearable, didn’t even ask anything about my past, where I have been and what I was doing!!!! I call this absolutely inhuman!!! I am very disappointed! Aryan
