Mrs
P - Minehead
I would like to take the opportunity of sharing with you my personal experience
of the dental care I have received over the last year with the Aquae Sulis practice.
My
first phone call was prompted by a tooth abscess,
which meant that I would lose a tooth. I am in my
late forties and since my twenties had experienced
a great deal of dentistry, crowns, bridges, fillings
and had lost several teeth. My job as a beautician
and complementary therapist meant that I always want
to look as good as possible. I felt that the next
step was removable false teeth and I was terrified.
Looking
at several different advertisements in the yellow
pages I telephoned two, the first one wanted money
up front before they would even look at me, but when
I telephoned Aquae Sulis they were so reassuring
that I would be able to do something about my poor
dentistry and also offered a free initial consultation
to discuss the options.
I
was quite nervous when I arrived, but I needn’t
have worried, everyone was so welcoming, and Ian
Bellamy explained all the different options, and
there were several when I thought there were none.
At no time did I feel pressurised to have anything
done, but I can honestly say that right from my first
visit I knew that I had come to the right place. |

I
spent some time discussing with my husband and children
the different options. The cost had to be taken into
consideration as it would mean that there would be
no holidays for a while, no much needed new kitchen
and limited funds in helping our four children with
their studies. Everyone felt that none of that mattered
if it meant that I would feel so much better about
myself.
I
had been so nervous of visits to the dentist in the
past that I had to take something to calm me down.
I never experienced this with any of my many visits
to Aquae Sulis. Over the past year I have had implants,
crowns and veneers and have never suffered any discomfort,
in fact I look forward to relaxing for an hour or
two and have even visited with the onset of a migraine
which had completely cleared by the time I left.
If it wasn’t for the fact I had to keep my
mouth open I would have slept through every treatment.
Since
my treatment finished I feel I have found myself
again, I no longer put my hand over my mouth when
I speak, or hide from the camera. I smile all the
time, people tell me how good I look especially men
and it gives me a real ‘buzz’. I can
honestly say that I have never been happier about
my appearance I just wish I had known about the Aquae
Sulis practice a long time ago.
The
professional, caring attitude that I have received
from every member of the team, confirms that my first
impression was correct. Thank you for giving me back
my smile and my confidence.
