• Appledore Stood Out

  "After five years with no dentist, I decided that I would have to do something about it. In September 2005 I started the search and found Appledore….
  
  Compared to the other dentists I was researching, Appledore stood out by miles!
  
  From the friendly greeting by the reception team, the excellent explanations of how I would be treated, all the way to the gentle style of treatment supplied by the dentist….. I was impressed!
  
  So, having realised that treatment every five years was not a good thing, I took the plunge and joined the Appledore Club…. This simple payment plan was a great investment form the very start, not only did I get a healthy discount on the 4 monthly Hygienists visits, I also got my teeth whitened!
  
  One year later, I’ve just signed up again for the Appledore club – I consider it a “no brainier”… to any one reading this I strongly encourage you to use Appledore as your dentist, if you’re anything like me you’ll be bowled over.
  
  Cheers

• No Hesitation in Recommending Appledore

  "Dear Paula
  
  I saw your newsletter in the reception area on my last visit, and I wanted to send a short note to commend you on the surgery and all the staff at Appledore.
  Having come from a private practise where the staff were dismissive to the point of rudeness (this included our previous dentist). Your surgery has opened my eyes to what I had been putting up with for far too long.
  From our first visit, we have been greeted by a friendly yet very professional approach from all the staff there. I especially liked that my toddler is encouraged and made a fuss of in the surgery, so much so that she rather enjoys going to the dentist. I would have no hesitation in recommending your service to others, and please do keep up all the good work.
  
  Best Regards
  
  Mrs J Gosling

• I Write To Congratulate The Centre

  "I write to congratulate the centre and in particular Neale Katz.
  
  Having been a person extremely nervous of all dentistry, I have delayed work required on my bottom front teeth for about two years, some loose, some gaps, and unsightly etc, I have had splints to hold them, stick them, fill them, etc.
  
  However when Neale became my dentist we discussed stop messing about and do the job properly once and for all.
  
  This required two extractions, four crowns and in all a 6 tooth bridge, the thought of this work made me extremely anxious, and of course there was the cost this is not inexpensive work, but eventually I decided to go for it.
  
  With patience and time Neale and the staff guided me through it, almost no discomfort, and just two visits later I am the proud owner of a fabulous smile, I can bite into apples for the first time in many years, I love them, they look and feel great.
  
  The cost, yes of course it was expensive, the best often is, but I know this quality will last long after the price is forgotten, my only regret is I didn’t do this years ago.
  
  Thanks Neale

• A Joy To Visit

  "Hi Paula
  
  It was so nice speaking to you on our last visit, and I thought I would share with you our initial observations.
  
  This was only our second visit to your practice, and as I said, myself and Pamela were so pleased with the way your team relate to their clients, and how you have created such a relaxing atmosphere from the moment you enter the clinic door. Going to the dentist can be a stressful experience for many people, it always has been for me, and can be quite a nerve racking time. However, the professional approach from your dentist and the supporting staff, helped so much to make the visit to Appledore a joy rather than a nail biting experience.
  
  Keep up the good work.
  
  Kindest regards

• First Class Service

  "Hello,
  
  I hope you don't mind me contacting you with a big 'Thank You' to Dr Katz and the team. I am a new patient of Appledore who needs considerable work unfortunately, but I can't thank you all enough for your kindness, patience and first class service. After years of feeling dread at the very thought of visiting a Dentist, I can feel my apprehension and sense of doom fading, which is a wonderful and liberating feeling. Thank you all once again!
  
  With Kindest Regards,

• I am so unbelievably happy

  "" I met fellow dentist Teresa at a conference and she suggested that
  she could straighten my teeth with an appliance called Invisalign, a
  clear plastic brace which is almost invisible. I'd looked into getting
  my teeth straightened before but had been told by various orthodontists
  that it was a difficult job and I would have to wear head gear (a very
  unattractive metal device worn on the outside of the face and head). I
  just accepted the way my teeth were but felt embarrassed by my smile. I
  was getting married the following year so when Teresa suggested it I
  jumped at the chance to go ahead with Invisalign. When the treatment
  plan came back it said I needed to wear Invisalign for 3 years, this
  was very daunting but I wanted a nice smile so much that I decided to
  commit myself to it. During the time I wore Invisalign only one person
  ever said to me 'you've got plastic on your teeth'. Most people were
  amazed that I was wearing braces at all. I even wore Invisalign on my wedding day and had my photos taken with confidence.
  The 3 years passed very quickly and Invisalign just became part of my
  daily life. I have not looked back since. I am so unbelievably happy
  with my new smile, I look at photos of me before and wonder why I never
  had my teeth straightened sooner, but I hadn't met Teresa then! I
  would recommend Invisalign to anyone considering having their teeth
  straightened. It's the best thing I have ever done. "

• Priceless!! Thank You

  "For as long as I could remember had always been conscious of my uneven teeth, hiding my mouth when I smiled or laughed. I had worn a brace on my bottom teeth briefly when I was 16 which I was very self conscious of. It was extremely uncomfortable and dug into my gums to the point of scaring. Needless to say I stopped wearing it.
  
  35 years later I read an article about Invisalign at the Appledore Clinic. I booked a consultation with Dr Teresa Day, fully expecting a disappointing response. Dr Day did a thorough examination and said “Yes we can do something here”. I was so excited. Dr Day explained the whole process thoroughly and clearly and said it would take approx 18 months. I walked from her surgery on air, I was so excited.
  
  In total I have worn 27 sets of aligners for 2 weeks each. Wearing the aligners was easy and so comfortable, much better than wired braces. I am now at the final stage and I am so pleased with the finished result. 18 months later I have the smile I always wanted and am proud of.
  
  The staff at the Appledore Clinic were always very professional and welcoming. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
  
  Admittedly the process is fairly expensive, but the finished result? PRICELESS!

• No Longer Have a Fear of the Dentist

  "Teresa,
  
  How very glad I was to have met you back in July.
  
  I can't praise Appledore enough for the way they operate, on arrival you are greeted with a lovely friendly smile and nothing is too much trouble!
  
  Explaining that my daughter has a phobia of needles, Dr Neale Katz made her feel very relaxed and talked through every element of the treatment and put us at ease totally.
  
  No longer do we have to fear the dentist, with the high tech equipment you have and the caring, professional team, it could almost become a pleasure.
  
  Thanks and regards,

• The best dentistry I’ve ever experienced

  "The best dentistry I’ve ever experienced.
  
  Appledore did an excellent job fitting my new crown on a difficult pre-molar, and explained everything really clearly. It’s as solid as rock and feels just right.
  
  Best regards

• Amazing Results - Thank you

  "Having had two failed root canal treatments, numerous abscesses and, finally, an extraction of the offending front tooth, I associated visits to the dentist with pain, bewilderment and a fair amount of trepidation.
  
  Even when Dr Teresa Day and Appledore were recommended to me for a dental implant, I assumed I'd have to endure more of the same to get the smile I desperately wanted. I couldn't have been more wrong.
  
  Dr Day and her staff couldn't have been friendlier or more caring.
  
  Every aspect of my treatment was explained in detail and, thanks to her skill and expertise (as well as her patience!), I experienced no pain or discomfort whatsoever (no mean feat for someone whose legs shook so much during a previous root canal treatment that her sandals fell
  off!).
  
  After literally months of being too embarrassed to smile, the final result is so amazing I can't stop grinning from ear to ear!
