I want to thank Dr. Kam for all his hard work he has done on my teeth. I can't thank him enough. He did a fantastic job. I got my confidence to smile now. Dr. Kam you are the best dentist I have ever met. You are very friendly, professional and easy to talk to. I will definitely recommend anyone who would like to do veneer go to see Dr. Kam. I would like to thank Nina as well for her advice and support during my treatment there. Once more thank you, very much for the beautiful job you have done on my teeth. From Bibi

I have just had my final implants and veneers fitted this week and the results are amazing. I visited the practice with Dr Mish 13 months ago and got a plan for my periodontal disease. He gave me great advice and listened to my needs and I was able to progress with implants for my front uppers and lower jaw. It was a painless process and everything was explained clearly with checks and support throughout.
I was also referred to Dr Kam and he exceeded on his promise to deliver a beautiful smile. He took great care to understand what I was looking to achieve and given the state of my teeth and my past gum disease I now have my confidence restored and a set of beautiful and natural teeth. If you are reticent or unsure about implants I would say go and see the team here as they will put you at ease and show you what is possible.
You will be amazed at the results and also how painless the implant process can be. My only regret is not doing this sooner. The whole team are fantastic and friendly and will keep you calm, comfortable and informed at every visit. The best dental practice around in my opinion and again my thanks to everyone at both Shirley Road and Wickham Road for contributing to such a successful and transformative outcome for me.

I have been using Kam Sachdev and his wonderful team for many years, in fact when it comes to dental treatment, I would use no-one else. The Gentle Dental Care Practice has state of the art equipment in modern, purpose-built premises. The welcome is always warm and Kam's care is of the highest quality - he inevitably puts you at your ease and explains clearly what needs to be done. He is a masterful exponent of his craft, a lovely personality and I recommend him wholeheartedly. He is the best.

I was such a nervous patient at my appointment after a very bad experience at another dentists years before left me officially scared of the dentist. I went into Gentle Dental for a scale & polish and my experience was AMAZING. I felt at ease, not rushed and she fully explained the process which helped alot. Will definitely be coming back

This is by far the best dental care I have ever had! I went in for all four of my wisdom teeth removed and immediately was very kind and compassionate, always checking up on me asking how I am and ensuring I was comfortable throughout the whole procedure! Dr. Kam is the best! He is very trusting and everything you could ever ask for! The rest of the staff as just as wonderful too! Always feel very welcomed and warm whenever I go for any of my appointments! If I could rate higher I would! Highly recommend!

I have just had my implants and porcelain veneers completed at this practice, and I can't stop looking in the mirror at my new smile. Outstanding work by kam and his team they are all so professional, nice and friendly. I'm so glad that I chose this dental practice, which was actually recomended to me from a dentist at another gental dental practice.
It's been a long journey to get where I am today but it was time well spent. I would recommend this dentist to anyone who maybe thinking about getting professional work with their teeth, if you have any worries or phobias with dentistry then rest assured the team here are experts and will make you feel so relaxed and comfortable. Thankyou so much for everything you have done for me, I'm a changed man.

Gentle Dental Care is very appropriately named. Not only Gentle but caring, professional and friendly too! From booking my appointment right through to my treatment everyone there welcomed me in, took time to talk to me, listened to me and explain every step of the process. I was treated by Dr Iain who explained the treatment I needed, why I needed it and exactly how it would be carried out.
During the treatment he took time to show what instruments and techniques he was using and was so gentle and reassuring throughout I almost fell asleep in the chair! I would highly recommend Gentle Dental Care to everyone and particularly if you are nervous of going to the Dentist. Gentle Dental Care makes it a thoroughly pleasant experience!

My treatment at Gentle Dental care is now over. I have been given the very best care despite the challenges of Covid. From Lucas who is always so welcoming, to Henrietta a hygienist and of course Dr Mish, Dr Kam and Dominica. They are such a great team always so patient understanding and reassuring. They take the time to explain everything in detail and, for someone who was very nervous during the process, always took the time to put my mind at ease.
My treatments included tooth removal, crowns and dental implant all of which were done with the best care and attention you could want. I'd like to say a big thank you to the team and I would highly recommend using Gentle Dental Care!

Highly experienced and seasoned team. They know what they are talking about and the diagnostics they performed using state of the art technology was both accurate and thorough. They took me through the X-rays and provided detailed analysis of problem areas and how they can be addressed. They are not cheap but they provide a value added service.

I've never been fond of going to the dentist, bad experiences and poor dentistry work in the past had made me avoid them unless i was in pain. My initial appointment with Gentle Dental Care was due to the fact that I had a broken crown that needed replacing. After a thorough check up it turned out that I also needed one or two fillings replaced. I wasn't looking forward to having the work done, however, I was more than happily surprised at the level of care and the quality of dentistry performed by a friendly and genuinely caring group of people.
The professionalism and the level of expertise they've shown to me gave me the confidence to feel totally at ease with them. There is a level of patient care given by this practice that I honestly thought did not exist in the dentistry world. Without the support of everyone at Gentle Dental Care I would not have undertaken more much needed dental work to improve the condition of my gums and teeth. Ultimately they are responsible for improving my overall well-being as well as my smile. I can not speak highly enough about these lovely people.

First I would just like to say, I am pain free! After having tremendous pain. Dr. Kam was soooo friendly, reassuring and he's got a good sense of humour! He is just amazing overall. In regards to the other staff at the practice, they were absolutely lovely, very welcoming and made me feel at ease. I just want to thank EVERYONE who I interacted with that played a part in making my surgery a success and help making me feel that everything would be OK (that includes the sedation) lol. A special thank you to Mary, she's also amazing! I recommend this practice HIGHLY.

I am so pleased with the service I received today. It was extremely good. The dentist was extremely patient with me and explained the whole procedure in detail. They were gentle with me and the environment was very clean to a high standard. I left with an even bigger smile. I highly recommend them to family and friends! : looking forward to my next visit

Excellent professional service from start to finish - I was very nervous but need not have worried - the extraction and treatment for implants was explained to me each step of the way. All the staff were very kind and I would definitely say the treatment was gentle - I now have my smile back & would recommend Gentle Dental Care to anyone.

I visited Gentle Dental Care for the first time yesterday and even though I hadn't visited the dentist for years, I was immediately put at ease. The practice is the most modern and high-tech practice in Croydon the receptionist immediately put me at ease and the dentist herself was lovely and kept me calm. I now have a dental plan in place and know what I need to do to prevent further problems. Thank you so much for giving me confidence in the profession again

This dentist was good until they sold out to Gentle Dental. Since then I have had a terrible time with the dentist, hygienist, reception and telephone service. I left a Gentle Dental practice a few years ago because they just treat you like money on a conveyor belt and didn't care for my gums, they spent so much time trying to sell me teeth whitening and cosmetic procedures.
This is how I now feel at Purley Whites, the dentist told me she is required to book NHS appointments at 5 minute intervals, that's ridiculous. I've found a new dentist who treats me like a person and offers me actual care and advice.

Excellent. Best dentist I have ever seen, I didn't even know the procedure was finished! I am 50 and scared of dentists but this experience was amazing. no pain, no fear, no uncomfortable moments! Mr Sid Persaud is an expert - gentle, informative, professional and also good humoured which puts you at ease. No problems. Good after care advice. I am astonished. Highly recommended.

Worst place ever. Rude staff receptionists. Dentists think they are above you. Had a 9am appointment. Now left an hour early for it was stuck in ridiculous traffic tried to call and explain my situation no answer when I finally got through and I was 2 minutes away they said dentist wouldn't see me as I'm 10 minutes late ridiculous. It's not like I'm travelling in a helicopter and can avoid traffic.

I don't usually use this dentist but thought I would try and find a practice more local. At this practice I was told that I needed crowns which would usually cost 400 but they could fit them for 300 as a special deal. I was dubious so went back to my usual dentist who said I didn't need anything of the sort. Beware. Pros- Staff were friendly.

Can't fault the dentist/hygienist but the admin side has has really gone down hill. One appointment not booked, the rescheduled appointment was booked for wrong time which I only discovered after a call from the dentist who called to ask my to change the appointment. That was rescheduled, then then the day before that appointment I had a call to tell me the appointment had to cancelled because the dentist was ill.
Totally understand the rescheduling due to illness but I have been trying to get a successful check up since the beginning of November. Suffice to say I have registered to another dentist.
