I used to be a very nervous patient, before visiting Dr Sarah Lochead at Helen's Bay Dental Practice. The environment is very relaxed and friendly and the treatments I have received over the years have been amazing, as this Dental Practice uses all the latest, up to date dental technology and techniques. I could not be happier with the standard of care and treatment I have received. Sarah is by far the best dentist I've ever been to. All the staff are so welcoming and friendly and I highly recommend this practice. I no longer dread going to the dentist.

Superb service and attention to detail. All staff are friendly and make the whole dental experience a good one.

Excellent emergency service once again! Thank you to Gareth and his amazing team! So grateful to have a great dentist! Happily heading off to my conference with my lovely smile! Thank you.

From the surroundings to the staff, Helens Bay Dental Practice provides a superb experience from start to finish. Extremely friendly, professional, and a pleasant environment to be in. They have invested heavily in the latest and most up-to-date equipment, which makes for more relaxing and less stressful dentist visits. I’m delighted with the service I have received over the past year, from implant surgery to fillings. If you are nervous about the dentist, this place will really make you feel at ease. I’ve never felt any pain during any of my treatments. When my next appointment comes around, I don't feel anxious or nervous like I have in the past with other dentists. I'd recommend their services to anyone without hesitation.

The people who work here are very friendly and welcoming. It also looks like a lot has been invested in new treatment rooms and equipment recently. Whether you just care about looking after your teeth or want the Hollywood smile, this practice does a range of treatments that will get you there.

On the 1/12/25 I was nervous and apprehensive as I was beginning my dental implant journey. I didn’t know what to expect but I needn’t have worried as the dentist, Edward, and dental nurses, Beata and Alison, put me at ease immediately. Before I knew it, my teeth were out and my posts were in. I felt no pain and was supported through it all. A few hours later my temporary implant arch was fitted and already I could smile with confidence. They are a wonderful team and everyone I have been in contact with has been pleasant, helpful, and supportive. Just another few weeks and I will have my permanent implants. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner. I would 100% recommend Helens Bay Dental to anyone who is still thinking about taking the first step towards implants. Thank you to everyone in this amazing dental practice. I am counting down the days to my permanent teeth. Today I got my permanent teeth and I am absolutely delighted and as always the care was 5-star. Thanks to everyone.

First-class service as always. Very professional and friendly team.

I went to the hygienist today for a routine clean and had such a great experience. Gill was amazing – she instantly put me at ease with her knowledge and experience, and took the time to address my concerns about my gums. I also received a lovely warm welcome from Shelley, the nurse, who provided excellent support throughout my treatment. Both made the whole visit really comfortable and reassuring. Highly recommend!
