“Let me start by saying that many years ago, my upper front tooth took a size 11 boot to it,...”
which knocked it out of line and caused it to die. I also went to Uni in Scotland and subsisted almost entirely on Iron Bru, cookies and '3 for £1' gummy sweets, for several years (Honestly, No joke). My teeth were crooked, rot yellow, full of holes and my front tooth had gone a horrible dark grey colour.
I was genuinely terrified at the prospect of going to see a dentist. I thought they would 'shout' at me, or laugh, or just not care. I thought it might hurt too. I'm glad to report that I couldn't have been more wrong. The staff at Alton Dental are absolutely lovely. They have always done everything possible to make me feel welcome and at ease. I would 100% recommend this practice to anyone who suffers from any kind of anxiety.
I'm now roughly a year and a half into my treatment. From memory, I had to have 5 fillings, a root canal, braces on the top and bottom, retainers and whitening. I can honestly say that I have felt very little (if any) discomfort throughout my treatment. My dentist (Puru) is an absolute pro, he is a perfectionist and has done a magnificent job. I cannot thank him enough.
I know a picture is worth a thousand words, and as such, I really wanted to post a 'before' and 'after' of my smile. Unfortunately, it would appear that I have not really shown my teeth in a single photograph in the past 10 years. Hopefully the 'after' will suffice. The image attached below has no filters applied!
I would honestly give 6 stars if I could. A big thank you once again.”
