“Great experience at Park Road Dental Care. Very easy to make an appt online the day before and when I arrived was warmly welcomed by Leanne. I had a new patient exam and hygiene and was pleased with the process. Dr Asim was thorough and took the time to answer all my questions. The practice also had nice decor and was a pleasant environment to be in.”

Puisan CSource:“Not a great fan of going to the Dentist, who is, but very happy with my visit to Park Road Dental Care. Had a check up and air Polish clean , both done very professional and my dentist David Was friendly and put me at my ease. Leanne the dental nurse was the first ever to not make me feel like I was being water boarded in the chair. Even having a tooth extracted was easy and without trauma. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.”
Tracey SSource:“Lovely new practise, very welcoming, Dr David Burton & the nurse were absolutely amazing with my daughter who worries about visiting the dentist & who also has complex needs including Autism, they explained every step to her and were very patient, the appointment wasn’t rushed and all treatment was offered to be done on the same day including X-rays, a clean and a filling. We have booked our next appointment and we would highly recommend this practise. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
Joanne ASource:“I recently visited Park Road Dental for an emergency filling and honestly couldn’t recommend it more highly. From the moment I walked in, the space felt modern, calming, and incredibly welcoming. Exactly what you want when you’re in pain and feeling anxious.
The whole team were so friendly, professional, and reassuring throughout the visit, and the level of care was outstanding. Most importantly, Dr Asim was absolutely brilliant. He quickly put me out of my misery, explained everything clearly, and made the whole experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
You can really tell this practice genuinely cares about its patients. Fantastic service from start to finish. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending to others.”
