The team at Kirby dental practice are always so welcoming and friendly. I look forward to my chats with Louise, then seeing the calming Anna and Kieron. They know me very well now and take very good care of me. Excellent service and team.

Had my first appointment at Kirby Dental and was really impressed. I arrived a little late, but the team were so understanding and assured me it was completely fine. I’m usually a very nervous patient, but Dr. Saara made me feel calm, safe, and completely at ease throughout my visit.I had my X-rays done, and Dr. Saara took the time to clearly explain everything from the treatments I needed to helpful recommendations for looking after my teeth. Her gentle approach and professionalism made the whole experience so much better than I expected.I would definitely recommend Dr. Saara and the team at Kirby Dental to anyone, especially if you’re a bit anxious about going to the dentist.

I cannot recommend this dentist highly enough! Kieron Thompson is the first dentist who understood and effectively addressed the issues I’ve had with my teeth for many years. His friendly manner and reassuring approach immediately put you at ease.In addition, I haven’t seen a hygienist for years having previously found the experience to be far too uncomfortable at other dentalSurgeries. As someone with sensitive teeth, I found hygienists to be rather rough. However the hygienist at Kirby’s, Esti Mayans, is an absolute miracle worker! She puts me completely at ease and I experience no discomfort whatsoever during her treatment. For anyone who is anxious about visiting a hygienist, you cannot go wrong with Esti!Also the receptionists are lovely and welcoming!Honestly - visiting a dentist has never been so pleasant! ????

I can’t recommend Dr. Farah enough! She is so kind, gentle and patient. She explains everything so clearly and takes time to make sure you feel comfortable. As someone who was terrified of the dentist as a child, my whole attitude has completely changed thanks to her care. The entire team is fantastic — her nurse Anna is warm and reassuring, and receptionist Louise always greets you with a smile and makes you feel welcome. A wonderful experience from start to finish.

I have been a client at Kirby Dental Practice since I moved to Teddington 10 years ago and the services provided, both dentally and customer care-wise, have been top class. Louise is always friendly and helpful on arrival and the dentists and hygienists work is to the highest standard. Thank you

I started visiting Kirby Dental Practice recently after a number of years of not having any dental treatment partly due to chemotherapĺy mainly due to a lifetime phobia. My phobia is no more the warmth and high standard of the practice has cured my fear. I required a major amount of treatment( with more to come) all presented to me in a detailed care plan. My recommendation for Kirby is 100%

I stumbled across Kirby Dental while waiting for my Covid jab. I was looking for a new dentist as mine had retired. The receptionist, Louise, was very helpful and friendly, so I thought I would give it a go. Her recommendation to see Kieron was spot on. I have been so happy with my experience at Kirby’s that both my daughters have also joined recently. The hygienist, Esti, is amazing. So caring, knowledgeable and supportive.

I’ve always been terrified of going to the dentist, but ever since I started seeing Dr Saara, that fear is gone. She is incredibly thorough and kind, and she explains everything clearly, which makes me feel safe and well cared for.Her nurse Anna is so warm and reassuring, and Louise at the reception always welcomes me with a big smile and kindness, making every visit a genuinely positive experience.I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Saara and her wonderful team, true professionals with a personal touch.

Outstanding Care and Follow-Up!I had a fantastic experience at Kirby Dental Practice. From the initial consultation to the actual treatment, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine care. The clinic is modern, clean, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive.What really impressed me, though, was the post-treatment service. After each treatment, I received a follow-up call the next day to check on how I was feeling and to answer any questions I might have. They even sent a reminder about aftercare tips and scheduled a quick check-in appointment to ensure everything was healing properly.It’s rare to find a dental practice that goes the extra mile after the treatment is done. I felt truly cared for, not just like another patient on the list. Highly recommend them if you're looking for a dentist who combines expertise with exceptional customer service!

Going to the dentist isn't something that any of us look forward to but Keiron Thompson and the team at Kirby Dental Practice make it a positive experience. Keiron was excellent; taking time to explain the treatment programme to me and making sure that I was comfortable at all times. I felt included every step of the way and am very happy with the outcome.

I would thoroughly recommend Kirby Dental Practice - All the treatment I've received has been extremely good and I am more than satisfied - very friendly and extremely professional - always helpful with good advice.... my experience with Dr Farah and her assistant Anna was extremely good and they kept their surgery open to finish an extraction which was a very difficult. They went above and beyond - very appreciative of their consideration and extra time given me.Shirley Thomas

Having not been to the dentist in a few years i was quite nervous to go again, however i had the best experience at Kirby Dental Practice and actually really enjoyed my appointments! I had an appointment with Kieron for a general check up in December which was very thorough and put my mind at ease, and then had a hygienist appointment in January with Esti which again was so thorough and I actually found really enjoyable! I could not recommend this dental practice enough, all the staff there are so friendly and are so reassuring to those who are nervous. I will definitely be going back regularly for the foreseeable future! Thank you for all your help, my teeth have never felt or looked better!

Highly recommended. Always get a friendly and professional service here starting with Louise on reception, then the nursing team, Esti the hygienist and finally Keiron now our family dentist. He always takes time to listen to concerns, offer choices and doesn’t push unnecessary treatments. Has a good rapport with the teenagers too!

Anna Green

Brilliant experience during my check-up with Keiron today, who took the time to listen to my concerns and really explain everything in layman’s terms. The lady at reception is also super warm and friendly.I am usually a nervous patient but the professional, personable and thorough service put me at ease today, would highly recommend. Thanks all! X

Such a lovely dental practice to deal with. From Louise who looks after appointments and deals with all my queries to the professional dental team - everybody wants to ensure you have a good experience as possible visiting the dentist and hygenist.

I had a range of dental work done by Saara at Kirby Dental practice. This included root canal, crowns and fillings. Saara has been a brilliant dentist and the results have been excellent. I also used the hygenist service which was the best I have ever had. I would highly recommend Kirby Dental Practice

Been attending Kirby since last year. The staff are all professional, really nice and very good at what they do. I’ve had two of the best teeth cleans of my life here. Both my partner and I have had different hygienists at Kirby’s and we are both very impressed with the attention to detail and gentleness of the cleans.

I have been putting off a fairly routine appt with this dentist for a couple of years now. The lovely, kind Louise or the lovely Yamala makes me an appt. I then usually cancel with some excuse…. Although the last time was genuine… today I managed to pluck up the courage to attend my appt. Being a child of the 60’s and 70’s… my experiences with dentists at that time has left me with a massive phobia! Sara and Anna are amazing. They could see I was very, very nervous and put me at ease. The dental work was done quickly and painlessly. They explained everything. I also had a hygienist appt. Esti, again, is amazing. Everyone was so kind and patient with me. I will be staying with themforever !!!! Thank you to all the lovely ladies who work there. Xx

This was my son's first trip to the dentist and it couldn't have gone any better. We received a warm welcome from the moment we stepped in and Dentist Kieron took his time to make him feel comfortable and spoke in a way that he understood. Very happy with my choice.

I was always afraid of the dentist, but Dr Cheryl is so nice and gentle. She has explained everything in great detail! I really recommend Kirby Dental Practice!

This is one of the best practice I have been to. Louise is kind and friendly. Keiron is an amazing dentist who knows what he is doing. It was the most thorough examination I have had and every detail was explained to me. He gave me the options for treatments that I needed clinically and cosmetically which I really appreciate as many practices I have been to in the past would not explain both. Thank you to the team. I will be revisiting for treatment soon.

I recently changed my dentist to Kirby Dental Practice, and I couldn’t be any happier. Everything about the clinic and team makes you feel calm and comfortable. The process of booking is easy, and the initial analysis I had on my teeth was thorough and transparent. Thank you, Dr. Keiron and the team!

Tinny

I'm very anxious when i visit the dentist, but Dr Thompson made me feel at ease and comfortable by talking to me through what was going to happen. He was very calm and patient with me. Would definitely go back for further treatments.

I honestly cannot recommend Kieran and the team at Kirby Dental highly enough. I had some extensive cosmetic dental work done by Kieran and I am over the moon with the results. Kieran is highly professional and knowledgeable whilst also being extremely calm and considerate at all times. It was the most comfortable I’ve ever felt in a dentists chair! Thank you for helping me to smile with confidence again!
