Services
After diagnosing a dental issue, our dentists will present all your viable treatment options. Dental bridges and crowns often come up together as they address similar problems. If you have chipped, cracked, decaying, or missing teeth, we may recommend one or both of these treatments.
Preventative and restorative dentistry aim to maintain good oral health, while cosmetic dentistry focuses on enhancing the appearance of your smile. These elective treatments let you improve your smile’s aesthetics. Whether you need a simple procedure like teeth whitening or a comprehensive smile makeover, the dental professionals at our Sidcup practice are ready to help you achieve a dazzling smile.
Dental implants serve as replacements for missing teeth and are an excellent alternative to dental bridges or dentures. These implants are titanium fixtures that are inserted into the jawbone, acting as the roots for absent teeth. Due to the biocompatibility of titanium, the implants fuse with the bone, ensuring that the body does not reject the material.
At Dental Elegance, our goal is for every patient to attain a beautiful and natural smile. Orthodontic treatment corrects crooked, crowded, protruding, or otherwise misaligned teeth, improving both appearance and function. Straightening teeth not only enhances your smile but also corrects occlusion and promotes overall dental health.
People
Dr. Tif Qureshi
Dr. Tif Qureshi
Principal Dentist
He challenged the traditional approach cosmetic dentists used and introduced the simpler concept of Align, Bleach and Bond to revolutionise the way many dentists offer aesthetic dentistry, which allowed far more patients to have access to life changing results without expensive and potentially damaging treatment. This has had a profound effect on many thousands of practices and millions of patients around the world. Large numbers of long term case follow ups have proven this option is a viable treatment for many patients instead of opting for veneers and crowns, and this had created a paradigm shift in the perception of what is truly minimally invasive.

Lots of people say they don't like the dentist. But I've been coming here for years and even though I can't say it's the most pleasurable of experiences, I'm happy for my appointment, they have a great team, very attentive and friendly. Thank you DE.

Wow! I never leave reviews, but what a fantastic experience at Dental Elegance from start to finish - I feel incredibly lucky to have been treated by Dr Tif Qureshi, but everyone at the practice is just lovely and so welcoming. I couldn't be happier with my new smile, and I am safe in the knowledge that I made the very best decision. I can now smile 'open mouthed'!

I cannot thank you enough, Tif actually took the time to explain EVERYTHING he was doing. If you're thinking about switching dentists, or committing to a treatment, just do it - its worth every penny and you couldn't be in safer hands. A huge heartfelt THANK YOU!

I travel from Canterbury Kent to go to this practice. They were recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad she did. The dentist I see is amazing friendly so gentle when doing any treatments. He always explained why I need treatments. I have been going to him now for about 8 years so now I have annual check up & no treatments needed for around 3yrs.

I see hygienist every 6 months see who is amazing. She has helped me so much with my oral hygiene, so it's a win win. The staff at the practice are lovely, helpful & professional. This practice does provide all the up to date dental services too. Highly recommend this practice.

Haroon is a really lovely dentist. He is so calm and reassuring. I think he would make even the most anxious patient feel at ease. Sarah the hygienist is great. Does an amazing job of making your teeth and gums feel great but also really friendly and warm.

Such a wonderful practice I am very complex case with TMJ and jaw problems. I couldn't find a dentist to treat me and Dr John and Dr Dan have welcomed me with open arms. Going to the dentist is very stressful for me, but here I feel so relaxed and cared for. I really can't thank everyone there enough.

So very happy with the work John Maveli has done on my teeth, he has given me a new smile! I have been seeing John for about 3 years and he is just so very kind and patient with me and makes going to the dentist a much more pleasant experience. I would thoroughly recommend Dental Elegance as a whole team, they go the extra mile for your smile

I was told by Two other dental practices that my case was very complex and would require 2/3 implants and removal of existing teeth, I was sceptical and decided to contact these guys as I had heard good news about this practice. John came up with a plan where I keep ALL existing teeth and with the use of clear retainers place them in their rightful places, no need for unnecessary extractions and replacements.

After a brief course of clear aligners my teeth were all sorted, I decided to go a step further and have Composite Bonding/Veneer to most teeth, I really didn't want the "False teeth" look, I was just looking to bring my teeth back to their natural state and that's exactly what we achieved. The price was competitive but most of all the service & after care was second to none! Highly recommended, If you're on the fence don't hesitate to go for a consultation, You'll be in safe hands!

I had crowns and composite bonding by Dr John Maveli and I am delighted with results. I was extremely scared and there was honestly no pain at all. My teeth look and feel great. Thank you to Dr John and Nurse Yasmin for taking such good care of me. I can smile with confidence now and am so grateful.

Meena Thind is absolutely the best hygienist I've ever had. I'm 56 and have visited a lot of hygienists in many locations in the UK over the years. She is incredibly diligent in taking the time prepare the gums with an anaesthetic gel before the cleaning to prevent any pain. She then gets to work to remove all dental plaque very thoroughly. I would highly recommend adding the option of Airflow cleaning. Airflow effectively removes biofilm, stubborn stains, plaque and discolouration using a combination of warm water, compressed air and very fine powder particles. After Meena has finished, my teeth feel completely fresh and clean. Thanks Meena!

I have just left an appointment with my hygienist Sarah, and I just felt I absolutely had to leave a review. I had my 9 month old baby with me (you can imagine I was apprehensive about how this appointment might go) Not only was Sarah patient and wonderful with my daughter, she even went above and beyond and got the lovely dental nurse Yasmin to come in for a cuddle with her so she could finish my treatment.

I was made to feel so well looked after by each and everyone of the people there today and my daughter loved Yasmin The receptionists are always so warm and welcoming and make you feel so comfortable too which is an added bonus. My dentist Dr John is not only the best dentist I've ever had, but a truly kind and caring person who loves what he does.

Nothing is ever too much trouble for him, any fears of being in a dental chair leave immediately when you're with him as you not only feel he is super competent at what he does, but he is so friendly and down to earth with it. If I could give 6 stars I would

Hands down the best dental practice I have ever visited. All staff are really lovely and make you feel at ease. I have just had an emergency appointment with Dr Zain to fix my broken tooth and he was amazing. He made me feel so comfortable and also explained the whole process. Wouldn't go anywhere else! Thank you Dental Elegance!

I recently had whitening and bonding done at dental elegance and I couldn't recommend them more. John made me feel at ease from the moment we met, and was able to show me what he could do to my smile in just the first appointment. He made the bonding appointment really comfortable with music of my choice playing and offered a blanket too. He was able to answer all of my questions and make my smile even better than I imagined. His attention to detail is outstanding and I couldn't be more pleased with the result. I will never be going anywhere else!

Dr John is an outstanding person who expresses so much warmth & kindness.

I had 6 composite veneers done by Dr Haroon Latiff today. After breaking my two front teeth a few years ago the work I had done previously by another dentist I was no longer happy with. Dr Haroon has done such an amazing job, he was lovely and answered all of my questions. Thank you again!

Amazing Dental Practice! I couldn't recommend Dental Elegance enough! All the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Thanks to Dr Haroon, my teeth are exactly how I imagined they would be after treatment (align, bleach, bond). :)

Dr. John has truly renewed my faith in dentists in the UK-I had several bad experiences that left me afraid and so I avoided the dentist for too long. Dr. John's patient and compassionate approach to his patients immediately put me at ease and over the past year he has been meticulously correcting the previous work that was done. You can tell he takes great joy in caring well for his patients & I can honestly say I look forward to seeing my dentist now!

Went to Dental Elegance to see Meena for Botox treatment in 3 areas. This was my first experience of seeing her and she was very thorough and listened to what I wanted. The results are fantastic and within a few days I could already see the changes! Can't wait to go back again. Please don't hesitate to go and see her. She is wonderful!

I would highly recommend John at Dental Elegance. He is patient, kind, professional and very skilled. He has done a lovely job on all my front teeth and I now smile with renewed confidence. He even repaired my sisters broken veneer, which had been causing her problems for months (despite her visiting other dentists). We are both delighted with the service John provided. Thank you John.

The ***BIGGEST*** thank you to John and the whole team at Dental Elegance. From start to finish I have been absolutely delighted with the service I have received. I had always been fearful of the dentist and self-conscious about my smile. John made me feel so comfortable, and even made the experience really fun, which I never thought I would say about the dentist! I am over-the-moon with the results.

Absolutely delighted with the care I received during the entire length of my "Align, Bleach & Bond" treatment. John always went above and beyond during every single appointment, giving me the best level of service possible and ensuring I was happy at every stage of the process. I couldn't recommend him or the practice more highly - excellent communication at all times and the highest level of customer service. Thank you so much. I'm thrilled with the result.

My experience at Dental Elegance has been fantastic from start to finish. I was interested in composite bonding during the first lockdown and was promptly able to have a video consultation with the amazing John and Haroon. Everyone from the receptionists to hygienists is so friendly and caring and I always feel comfortable when I visit the clinic.

My composite bonding result is fantastic and John was able to make subtle changes that make a huge difference, while still looking natural. I get compliments on my smile on a daily basis now. Would 100% recommend.

I cannot put into words how phenomenal my experience has been at Dental Elegance. John has been so supportive and kind throughout every step of my journey. Not only is John highly skilled & professional but he is extremely personable and I could not recommend anyone else enough. As someone who was very insecure about my smile, I am throughly pleased with the final result of my composite bonding & Invisalign and I cannot stop smiling. So thank you John for being the best dentist, I couldn't be happier with how my teeth look, they are PERFECT!

Could not be happier with my experience with Dental elegance and John! From start to finish John has been super friendly and made me so feel comfortable throughout my Invisalign, whitening and bonding. I was unhappy with my teeth before and John totally transformed them and did such an stunning job. Nothing but amazing things to say about this dentist, staff are so friendly and for once i never dreaded going to appointments. Nothing was ever too much for John - highly recommend!

My experience with Dental Elegance was very positive. The dental expert was John Maveli and he was fantastic; polite, professional, informative and most importantly, he made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Speaking of process, the whole thing was unbelievably straight forward and within a few months I went from having several gaps to having a perfect smile; Incredible results. I cannot recommend enough.

I had composite bonding on my front 8 teeth in April last year by John Maveli. The experience has been life changing. I was so self conscious about my teeth and never smiled now I can't stop. My family and friends can't get over the transformation and want it done themselves. And I get compliments on my teeth by strangers all the time. And to top it of John is the most caring, fantastic, friendly dentist who offered a 5 star service right from the first consultation to my recent check up. You can tell he genuinely cares about getting the best results for his patients and this shows in the quality of his work. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

What a fantastic experience! John was so wonderfully kind and patient. I am really pleased with my composite bonding and whitening. What a result I've seen. As someone who definitely finds dentistry a bit uncomfortable, John was so friendly and helped lots by playing my favourite music and chatting away. As personable as he is skilled.

I was embarrassed to smile before and now I cannot stop smiling. I am absolutely over the moon with the results and cannot thank Haroon enough, he's an artist! All the staff at Dental Elegance were helpful and friendly and made me feel so comfortable and very welcome. Thank you Dental Elegance, I will never go anywhere else!
