Dental implant +

I have been a patient of 60 Malone Road for decades! First it was Ian Hastings, I was anxious about changing dentists but of course, people retire! Then along came Bruce and the team! Obviously I have been with Bruce for as long as he has been at the helm and I have nothing but praise for the service they deliver and the friendliness of the staff! I have seen the team far more than I would have liked this year - first it was about an infection, which developed a short time before I was due to go on holiday - I can’t remember how quickly I was seen but it was quick, no sooner had those antibiotics finished but the infection returned and as Bruce suspected it was a fractured root - no alternative but a dental extraction one week before I was due to leave the country for far off lands but Bruce squeezed me in & was happy to review the healing of it before I left, when told it was still a bit sore! All was well, holiday enjoyed but I had a gap!! Bruce talked me through the implant process - yes it is costly but I am delighted with the end result! I think I had a total of three appointments - one for all sorts of measurements, scans and photos! Then for the insertion of the implant and a few weeks later the ‘crown’. The insertion of the implant was uncomfortable but there was plenty of local anaesthetic (I didn’t like the feeling of the racing heart which I am told some people get - it only lasted a few seconds). The process was quite drawn out - extraction end February & finished in October! It gave me time to save up - the cost was spread over the three appointments! The gap is filled and I have had no problems with ‘that’ tooth since! If I find myself having to get another - I would do so but hopefully not until I’ve saved up a bit!! The service was second to none and Bruce explained everything very well as he went along! Thank you to both Bruce & Lesley. Sadly, I was back again today because another tooth was causing me bother and as always I was slotted in, this time only one day after making the phone call!! I cannot thank them all enough

Nervious Patient

I have been a patient at the Guild Practice for a number of years, and I cannot recommend the practice enough for the outstanding service and care that Bruce and his team give me on every visit. I recently had a surgical tooth extraction, which I wasn't looking forward to; however, Bruce and Lesley, as always, made me feel very comfortable, and the whole process was completely pain-free. The day after the procedure, I wouldn't have known I had the tooth removed....Amazing...Many Thanks as always.

Dental Implant Surgery

I am a long standing patient of the Guild Dental Clinic (over 30 years) l am currently undergoing a 5th dental implant(1st implant 2009 and still perfect) l can highly recommend this clinic for Implant surgery. Bruce has carried out all my surgery. I never had any problems-follow the guidance given all should be well. I have never experienced pain or discomfort afterwards.
Prior to surgery you are given breakdown of cost.
All staff are experienced, helpful and friendly.
I have no hesitation in recommending The Guild Practice for implant surgery.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with my dentist- GuildDental. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism which made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process, explaining everything clearly and answering all of my questions with patience and care.
Dr Hedi and her team’s skill, attention to detail, and gentle approach truly stood out. They have transferred the entire my teeth’ health, and made me so confident and happy. The clinic was clean, modern, and well-organized, and the staff were equally friendly and efficient.
It’s rare to find a healthcare provider who combines technical excellence with such genuine kindness. I’m so grateful to have found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional dental care.

Successful treatment of replacement filling.

Greeted well and put at ease for treatment and each stage had been explained and then confirmed during the procedure. Removed old filling due to crack in tooth and new white filling which matches my teeth. I felt no pain at all.

Excellent practice. I had a cracked tooth and was in a lot of discomfort, but they fit me in on short notice and took care of it quickly and professionally. The entire team was friendly, and the procedure was smooth and painless. I’m so grateful for their excellent care—highly recommend!

I saw Heidi and Lesley for a chipped tooth, they managed to fit me in the next day and fix it there and then despite myself being a new patient! Both ladies were so lovely and explained the whole process and you can’t even tell my tooth was chipped anymore. I will definitely be returning for any future dental needs!

An excellent and professional practice where courtesy and care are paramount.

Thank you to Bruce and all the staff at The Guild Practice for first class service at all times. From arrival to departure patients are made most welcome and well treated by everyone.

This characterised my experience on Tuesday when Bruce saw me at short notice and expertly repaired my cracked front tooth. I very much appreciated the time that he and his staff took to reassure and treat me and as always I am delighted with the result!

Thank you so much to everyone at the Guild Practice!

First rate implants and crowns

Heidi did two front implants and two new crowns and I was delighted with the result. She has great attention to detail and matches the new teeth perfectly to the existing ones.

Excellent Treatment!

I am very pleased to have this opportunity to submit sincere appreciation to the Guild Practice for the excellent service always provided to me. I have been with Bruce & Heidi Guild since they took over this dental practice from Mr Hastings (again an exemplary dentist) some years ago. A recent dental appointment prompts me to give this commendation.
After illness for over a year, and in the process of recovery, but not yet ready for dental work, Mr Guild kindly was prepared to carry out treatment that required a three hour slot. The care, skill and professionalism, with inconvenience to himself, enabled the work to be successfully completed. Likewise Sabrina, dental nurse/assistant, could not have been more caring and supportive. Thanks also to Tracey in Reception who has, over a lengthy time-period, always been helpful in every way. This recent dental work undertaken by Mr Guild was outside the service that could be expected of any dentist, or looked for by any patient, as if it were the norm, with care, patience, and generosity of spirit. I cannot express adequately my appreciation. I am very grateful. A. Johnston
