Patient Testimonials
Dear Mr Godfrey,
I am just writing to say thank you for seeing me so promptly and for sorting out my problem. I didn't expect to received treatment there and then and you and your staff made me feel most at ease and relaxed. For someone who hated going to the dentist, I have to say since moving to Lincolnshire in September, this problem has really changed my mind. As someone who never saw specialists in the past, I feel as if I have missed out on how it should be done by both you and Mr Bedford. Mrs Wallbutton has also made me feel very relaxed and like both of you, very gentle in her manner and very thorough.
Thank you once again and if I ever need specialist treatment I will have no hesitation in returning to your dental practice. Please also thank your team for staying late, I didn't realise the time.
I am taking the Ibuprofen as instructed and looking forward to the no pain day which I am sure will be soon. It is my intention to make appointments for the crowns to be done asap with Mrs Wallbutton.
Kind regards
Mirri Dear
Dental Implants,
My decision to have implants, was due to failing bridgework on the lower right hand side of the jaw. The options were to just have the failing teeth out, or a removable denture, or implants. I needed replacement teeth, as these were ‘chewing’ teeth and the second option of a removable denture, was something I didn’t consider for very long, knowing two friends who had both gone for this type of dental work found them not to their liking in a very short time.
In fact one kept his in the glove compartment of his car, and the other kept hers in the kitchen cupboard - obviously not recommended on a hygiene list for the mouth.
My first stage of treatment was for the removal of the failing teeth, and in my particular case the removal of some bone on the jaw, which was then inserted into the area to take the implants. This was because while I had depth for the implants, I needed extra width so that the new implants could sit firmly in the jaw. This procedure may not be necessary for others, as they may naturally have sufficient jaw area to accommodate implants.
After healing of the gums took place, I then had three titanium dental implants inserted, again following healing, the fitting of provisional acrylic implant bridgework was undertaken. After impressions were taken to get the right fitment for the top and bottom teeth to enable correct chewing movement, the manufacture of the implants was then commenced in the laboratory.
During all the many stages involved to create comfortable and healthy dental bridgework for me, the implant team, explained all the processes, also the choice of materials I could have in the construction of the new teeth.
They were both considerate and professional, which gave me confidence in their dentistry throughout all the procedures.
My dental work took place over a year ago, and this year I had X-rays taken to see if the teeth were now in good working order. All was perfect, and although implants can work out expensive, in my opinion, they are well worth the financial outlay. Should you be considering implants, my view is ‘yes’ have them done.

To whom it may concern,
Having had two lower-jaw implants necessitated through 'sliding' movement of the lower denture giving semi-permanent soreness. I have no hesitation in recommending the same procedure to any person having a simular problem.
I have recieved excellent attention from all at the surgery.

Dear Stephen,
After completion of my appointment yesterday and time to recover, I feel as though I could not have gone through with this without the support of you and your team.
I am pleased I don't remember very much of the appointment because I have been able to resume my normal routine today which is a major milestone for me! i have to say the filing looks and feels great, much to the relief of my colleagues the office is a quieter place today because it hurts me to talk lots!
As ever, my heartfelt thanks go to yourself, Gemma, Kim and Sue for the superb support in helping me to get through a tough time.
Best wishes to everyone involved.
Yours sincerely

A brief note to thank you most sincerely for the time and trouble you have spent sorting out my dental problems.
I have only had the opportunity to visit a few practices in Chesterfield and I had been less than impressed with many I saw.
Yours is an oasis and indeed a pleasure to visit.
Please also compliment your staff for the excellent professional service they provide.
See you in August.

How ungracious I was yesterday after all your brilliant work. I was so anxious and overwrought beforehand – not entirely one to the appointment – that I had difficulty in responding immediately. In the cool light of today however, I can view the treatment more calmly and express my approval and appreciation more coherently. It is truly a marked improvement.
Though we talked of the practical considerations yesterday we are both tacitly well aware of the emotional dimensions to your job – especially the work you undertook on me. Whilst I value hugely your technical skill and expertise, your sensitivity and honesty are just as important from my point of view. Otherwise I should never have come at all.
An unequivocal thank you for a splendid result.
Your Sincerely
JF, Dronfield
Now that my programme of dental restoration is complete I would like to take the opportunity of thanking you for the skill, patience, perseverance and endurance demonstrated during my marathon visits to your surgery.
The finished product is certainly a showcase for your practice and I shall have no hesitation in telling all who care to listen where they should go if they are interested in excellence.
Would you also convey my thanks to your Dental Technician for his skill and outstanding workmanship and to your support staff who always smiled whilst making me feel welcome and comfortable.
Yours Sincerely
GK, Sheffield
"Thank you for all your kind words, and letters, we are glad you left the practice with a smile on your face"
