The Best Dentists in Kent, United Kingdom (2025)

I’m an extremely nervous patient at a dentist and after moving to the area was dreading my first visit for a filling. I should not have worried. All the staff are wonderful and are extremely caring. No pain was felt at any time and almost looking forward to my return visit!

I have had regular check ups, hygienist treatment, veneers, fillings and one wisdom tooth extraction, over the course of many years I might add! Stuart and team are indeed caring, patient, gentle, careful, friendly and very professional.The quality of service is very high in my view considering that the cost of this service is reasonable. When I have needed an urgent appointment then one has been made available. I would highly recommend Laurel House Dental Practice.

Arrived to a warm welcome, visited Hygenist Melanie. Wonderful happy smiling lady, nothing too much trouble, excellent customer service, not rushed great service she takes her time and my teeth feel wonderful.

An excellent practice with a gentle, caring approach coupled with considerable expertise. All staff members are courteous and accommodating. Unfortunately I was recently transferred to the Southbank Sedation and Implant Centre, due to my regular dentist being on sick leave. The Southbank Centre could learn some valuable lessons from Laurel practice, particularly those associated with respect, communication and empathy. Thank goodness I am now back under the care of Laurel.

10/10 – 100% Highly Recommend! Tom is honestly the best dentist I've been to. From the very beginning, he was patient, kind and professional, and thanks to him, I'm not embarrassed by my teeth anymore. I’ve always been anxious about going to the dentist, but Tom changed that. I had a broken crown and some noticeable marks on my front teeth that made me feel self-conscious. (My old dentist told me I’d need a false tooth, not ideal at 35!) Tom looked and said he could put on a new crown and clean up my teeth. He took the time to explain everything in detail, answering all my questions and making sure I understood everything. In a world where many doctors and dentists seem eager to get you in and out, Tom was the complete opposite, he took his time and I didn't feel rushed. Now, not only am I more confident with my teeth, I'm also far less anxious about future appointments. Thank you, Tom, for your exceptional care and to the awesome nurses and reception staff. I highly recommend Tom to anyone in need of a kind and skilled dentist.

To best dentist I ever been too. Tom 100% recommend as can be fully trusted unlike Dover Priory Dental Surgery. Tom professionally cleaned my teeth the best result I ever had. Didn't need any treatment but gave me advice and tips on improving my daily routine, as plaque was showing. The whole team from receptions, dental assistant and Tom are totally professional and friendly in which puts one at ease. throughly cleaned my teeth

No one likes going to the dentist, but Kings Hill Dental make it as close to a pleasure as anyone could wish for. All the staff are friendly and smiling, service is great and you get the impression everyone really cares about their job and the customer. Long may it continue!

I had root canal treatment today (24th July) with Mohammed. He ran me through the treatment so I knew exactly what was going to happen. I thoroughly recommend Mohammed. He is extremely professional, as is the whole of Kings Hill Dental. I can't recommend them enough.

Simon is a great dentist makes me feel calm as a nervous patient would highly recommend

Myself and my family have been patients at Kings Hill Dental for several years. I have had both routine checks ups and more recently significant cosmetic work conducted at the practice. The care, attention, and friendly, professional service delivered by Simon and the team is exceptional. Despite having moved away from the area and it now taking a 60 minute drive, we would never consider going to another dentist. I simply cannot recommend Simon and the practice enough. You are treated as a valued friend more than a patient and my cosmetic treatments provided excellent results and good value for money. Overall excellent service.

Jason and his team are efficient, reliable and professional. We have used them for many years for all our PAT testing needs, and they have been excellent, and I would highly recommend!

Jason provides an excellent service. Very easy to communicate with and PAT testing was completed smoothly and at the arranged time. Jason has been providing PAT testing services for us for the last few years and is highly recommended.

Great Service from Jason Cairns of PAT Testing. Initial reminder sent and booked in promptly. Works around everyone and does not interrupt the day at all. Tested all the equipment and raised issues on 2 electrical leads requiring renewing. Highly recommend Jason and Great value

Jason was very helpful, knowledgeable and efficient, not to mention quick to respond and attend because of a pressing deadline. Completely satisfied with his professional service and he's a real nice guy too, he cares about the customer and knows his stuff. Glad to have used his services and support a local business. I would have no hesitations in recommending his company to carry out your pat testing or fire safety services!

Just visited Tooth Care Dental Rainham and had a fantastic experience with the Hygienist, Charlotte, and her team. Charlotte is such a lovely lady and took excellent care of my teeth. She also shared some brilliant advice, and I left feeling like my teeth were in great shape! The receptionists, Anna and the other wonderful ladies, were incredibly helpful and efficient, making me feel so relaxed—even though I’m not the biggest fan of dental visits. The whole team is genuinely friendly, and it’s such a welcoming practice. Highly recommend to anyone looking for excellent dental care with a personal touch! Would you like any adjustments, Andi?

Been a patient here roughly a year now. Had 4 appointments with the dentist and 1 with the hygienist. All round great service. Appointments are well communicated. Polite & friendly receptionists, always have a smile on their face. Dentists, nurses & supporting staff are very professional, understanding and accommodating. I would, and have recommended to others.

Had my tooth extracted today,it was quick and easy. The staff are very friendly and polite. It makes the experience better with music in the background and staff chatting,thank you.

Such good service. Annie on reception did everything she could to get me a prompt appointment and filling before my holiday! I’m really appreciative of the help they have given me. The dentist was efficient and kind. Highly recommend.

I have been at the HDP for over 50 years under different ownership but for the last 30 years or so I have been seen by Gary Doorman who has excelled and made me very comfortable on each visit. With him now taking a backseat role I have had the pleasure to meet Milan who is continuing to keep the calm on each visit. I have a tooth extraction in the morning. Not something I look forward to but, I feel reassured that Milan will do what’s needed to get us both through to the end.

I always receive exceptional service at Hartley Dental Practice. I am currently being treated by Milan, and he is always attentive, thorough and patiently explains every step of any procedures that I may have to have and makes me very comfortable and at ease with everything. The ladies at reception and the dental nurses are so friendly and always polite and i have no hesitation in recommending Hartley Dental Practice to anyone. They’re fab!

Since joining Hartley Dental Practice I had treatment on my teeth and the dentist was very friendly, gentle, explained everything and made sure i was comfortable throughout. It was a very positive experience and i have now moved my kids to this practice also. Very happy.

Very impressed at first visit. Thorough examination and very clear explanation of treatment needed with a printed treatment plan and costs detailed. Relaxed surgery puts you at ease and all the staff were very friendly and polite. Happy to recommend this surgery.

Brilliant reception. So accommodating and friendly. Saw the dentist promptly and on time. Such a fantastic practitioner. So knowledgeable and capable. Extremely reassuring as I still have a bit of dentist phobia. The whole practice makes my checkups stress free

All staff very friendly and helpful. Mr Steven Williams performed a root canal on me. I was very nervous about having it done but he kept me informed with what he was doing at all times. I am so impressed with what he did. Thank you so much. 100 per cent recommend.

Due to a bad experience at another dentist i have been quite anxious about attending for treatment. However, Rita at Appletree has been so amazing. She is calm and explains what she is doing. Both her and the team were so friendly. Definitely recommend them

Dr. Antoinette Angelo and her team, the wonderful Maraj and Kayleigh are fantastic! I’ve been made to feel completely comfortable and at ease through all of the work that I required and each of the appointments were performed to an extremely high level with reassurance at every moment. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you again!

The Dental Surgery is absolutely excellent, I’ve had great experiences. From the moment I stepped through the door I felt at home as everyone is extremely friendly, polite and well organised. The receptionist was very helpful with finding a booking and I received reminder notifications prior to my booking. James and the assistants at the Dental Practice were extremely kind and made me feel at ease before carefully and softly working on my teeth, checking in regularly how I’m doing. I’ve never been numbed so painlessly and carefully. They also explained technical aspects to me very nicely and assisted me in setting up an effective dental routine. They are affordable and offer various payment options. I would highly recommend the surgery.

Just had my first appointment at The Dental Surgery. It was an emergency appointment, I’ve been in so much pain with a gum infection so I was quite anxious as to what would be done but I shouldn’t have worried. James and his team are amazing! At reception, Penny is really helpful and welcoming and then, in the surgery, James explains everything he is about to do and is really caring and gentle. Excellent service! Highly recommend!

My experience with james on having treatment is outstanding. He makes you feel very reassured and explains everything with every step of the way. I am a very nervous person anyway, which made every step taken with compassion and patience. He has made me a very happy lady with my new teeth. All the girls are so lovely and professional and take time for you at all times. The minute you enter the surgery, there is an ora of relaxing energy that you feel, which makes you so calm. Thank you. You have made me so happy😁

I have been going to The Dental Surgery now for many years as my medication had affected my teeth quite badly & thank goodness James expert dental work corrected them. I only recommended James once again to my oxygen rep. today. who was installing new equipment for me & he needed a dentist as he was in agony. I recommended James & explained how James and his team are excellant & would look after him . Thank you James and your wife for your great service and wonderful decor that you provide also. Kind Regards, Lucinda

I’ve have bad experience with many dentists over the year and then I was recommended to this place. Absolutely excellent practise. Very relaxed and caring atmosphere, from the receptionist to the dentist. Cannot rate them highly enough. 5 star

I had some damage to the bottom of my top front teeth that two previous dentists have been unable to fill (the fillings fell out within hours). I have had a very different experience with this dentist, and people have been commenting how they can't tell there are fillings. My bite was carefully considered and worked around so they feel very much part of my mouth instantly. And the best thing...the fillings are still there...Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic experience with Dr. Oday and his team! From the moment I walked into the clinic, the warm and friendly reception staff made me feel welcomed and completely at ease. They’re not only professional but also genuinely kind, which made a big difference. Dr. Oday was incredible—he took the time to explain every step of my treatment in such detail, making sure I understood all my options and what to expect. I felt he really cared about my comfort and well-being, not just the procedure itself. His attention to detail and thoroughness are truly impressive. I left the clinic feeling confident and so happy with the care I received. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Oday and his wonderful team more highly!

This sounds oxymoronic but what a fantastic surgery!! I called Sunday morning due to a broken tooth and raging toothache. They fitted me in and extracted the tooth in the same appointment. The dentist (Dr Khan) was sensational and the dentist (Dr Awais Ali) who took care of my follow up was equally fantastic. Dr Ali was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable and competent which helped put me at ease and reassured me the pain would subside! A huge shout out to the lovely receptionist who gave my baby boy a goody bag too! Thank you for a great service

Had my first hygienist appointment with lia today, she was amazing from start to finish. I was super nervous as I’ve not had this done before and my teeth can be a little sensitive, but she reassured me the whole time and made the experience great! Thank you so much Burgate dental. I now feel at ease to go ahead with the rest of my treatment plan.

Lucy, the hygienist, efficiently assisted by Alison, did a thorough job of cleaning my teeth. What I especially noticed was that there was absolutely no physical pain in the process- a really precision job! I was also given specific advice regarding care for my wisdom teeth. For those that find visiting a dentist practice daunting, there is the bonus of being in a beautiful and ancient building with the best views of the Cathedral! I recommend this Practice.

I've had two appointments here so far, and won't be going back to my old Dental Practice. The staff are incredibly nice, thorough and fantastic at what they do! Thanks for sorting me out! Highly recommend.

I have no words to describe the exceptional service I receive from the team, and especially from Dr. Ioannis, the dentist. He took on a patient with numerous dental issues and, with patience and perseverance, is working diligently to improve the situation. So far, I am completely satisfied with their services and care. Another noteworthy aspect is that both Dr. Ioannis and the staff are incredibly polite, kind, and always willing to help.
