Excellent dentist with friendly and professional staff. The reception staff are extremely welcoming, as well as the dentists and dental nurses. I've always found that you receive clear information, advice and all options are explored.

Excellent care given at short notice- the surgery fitted me in on the day which was a relief. From reception to nursing staff and my dentist I received excellent treatment- really professional. Can’t thank everyone at Crescent dental enough
Karen.A - Feb 2021
I've just moved to this area and found this to be a fantastic dental practice. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. I've received great care from the Dentist and nurse I saw. Everything was explained to me clearly and they made sure I was happy before proceeding with any treatment.

Much praise and gratitude must go to Mr Lalli and his team for the professional dental care I have recently received. From booking the appointment with Karen, undergoing the treatment administered by Mr Lalli & Brooke to the satisfaction of the end result, yet again I am very appreciative of the high standard of personal care. Thank you so much

As usual, thanks to Dr Lalli and his staff for what can be a stressful visit to the dentist , was made to feel quite relaxed and safe with the precautions they have put in place during these worrying times. Thank You & Stay Safe.

Don’t know where to start. I honestly can’t thank Mr Lalli enough. He’s given me confidence I’ve never had in my life. After being pushed from pillar to post numerous times, I just accepted that I couldn’t get help. He has fully restored my smile and my happiness. Amazing dentist and truly incredible staff. Can’t thank him and Brooke enough.
Laura.S - March 2021
Absolutely fabulous service, I’m usually a nervous patient but even with Covid I was made to feel relaxed and taken care of. No messing around with booking of appointments, from start to finish Karen at reception explains everything. Her customer service is extremely attentive. No messing about with appointments schedule either, booked straight and by Karen and I was sent a text and email reminder 48 hours before my appointment! Jane, my dentist explained everything and was really reassuring and positive about my future treatment needed. Fab service all round. Thank you
Danielle.B - March 2021
Only been with this practice for about a year, may I say its been amazing. From the receptionist to the dental nurse to the dentist they all make it a very pleasant place to be. They put me totally at ease I'm usually terrified of the dentist but I've been put totally at ease on my last four visits two more to go until treatment is finished.
Lynn.C - March 2021
Today I visited and had to have a tooth removed. I was extremely nervous but was made to feel completely reassured and the whole process wasn't as half as bad as expected. I was checked on all the time and everything was explained in detail. It was actually a pleasant experience. Thank you.
