It was my first time visiting the dentist today. I was very nervous but Dr Swati was so patient and gentle. Definitely going to recommend my family and friends to come. Very modern and clean clinic!

My first visit to this practice. Very impressed. Calm surroundings. Greeted by a lovely, very efficient lady at reception. Dr David introduced himself, explained exactly what he was doing, and did ask several times if I was "OK", given he knew I was a little apprehensive. Showed me xrays, photos from the camera etc to point out what needed doing. I was extremely happy with everything, and pleased to be told costs up front. I have made my next appointment, and will be ensuring Maidstone Dental will become an annual visit for me. Thanks Maidstone Dental
