A very caring and pleasant team. I was given a courteous welcome, given a private space to wait in and then seen quickly and effectively by both the Dentist and Hygienist. The atmosphere was calm and relaxed, yet with an air of caution and patient protection in these strange times. I have no hesitation in commending and recommending this practice. UPDATE - 6 months on... Cavendish in Derby continues to be very welcoming. On the day that lockdown partially finished, the staff were very careful. yet considerate and pleasant to their customers. An individual greeting at the door, a warm hello from the dentist and valuable assessment of my current situation and a very real sense of caring from the hygienist, always with a view to my well-being. Highly recommended.

As a result of Shweta (my Dentist) making a direct referral for me to the Max Fax Dept in Hospital, and subsequent MRI TMD Jawbone Scan. I now know the cause of the pain in my Right, Ear/Side of head & Face (it is a Stuck TMD Jawbone Disc). The Hospital have now referred me to another Hospital which specialises in this, for treatment options. It has taken many years for me to eventually find this cause, after many other appointments, with several Drs, previously a Dentist in a different practise and an ENT Hospital appt and a face and neck MRI, all to no avail in finding the specific cause. Thank you Shweta very much for your care, advice, patience and persistence and for making the referral yourself, directly to Max Fax and for believing my pain was real ! Thank you.

Nobody wants to go to the dentist, but going here always makes it that bit less fearful; always put at ease with a smile and a welcome, rarely kept waiting long and always explaining actions before taking them. They are very good at sending out appointments and the deal maker for forgetful me are the email and text reminders for upcoming appointments.

Cavendish Dental Practice Derby Due to having toothache, I was able to make an appointment right away for a Monday, for an xray to find i had a whole in my back bottom tooth. A tooth extraction was needed for the following Wednesday. Alina (Dental nurse) and Mr Malhi (Dentist) were excellent! Aline reassured me throughout the procedured, trying to relax me and encouraged me to breath gently through my nose. Unfortunately I hadn't eaten anything before my appointment, and Alina offered me a glucose tablet to suck as it began to resolve. She explained the benefits to having it before the procedure. Throughout Mr Malhi ensured I was ok. He demonstrated the kind of pressure I'd feel when extracting the tooth, which reassured me. He had to give me several shots of the freez, but what was great, he sprayed a freez spray beforehand which helped a lot. What seemed like only a couple of minutes, the tooth was out! Praise God! My prayers were answered. I can't thank Alina and Mr Malhi enough for taking care of me. I will continue to recommend this Dental Practice. Even the reception staff were welcoming.

Maybe your staff should answer the phones when they ring! Several calls made when needing to re- arrange an appointment I have counted and have proof of the calls I have personally made, and not one has been answered. I was out of town so physically couldn’t come to ask to change an appointment. An appointment was sent out on a Thursday expecting me to come on a Saturday despite having called several times not a single call was answered as had to re-arrange due to bereavement. After that several calls made no answer so had to physically go in stand in the queue and i called from there to see if the phones actually rang and they did, and despite 3 staff members behind the desk one dealing with the queue and 2 on the pc’s not one answered the phone. And to prove myself I called 3 times while i was in the queue back to back calls they were not being answered. So when I spoke to the “practice manager” Becky Paterson I was told I don’t know why the calls are not being answered the staff are here. So I showed her the calls I made several times from appointment day til now and the calls I made while in the queue her answer was I can’t answer why the calls are not being answered. So who is to answer? So when A patient needs an appointment re arranging you won’t answer the calls, you have no other means of contacting I emailed back and texted back on the mobile number and email address I was contacted with but was told their automated, in two months if one call was answered it would be a different story but not a single call was answered and you will happily send out notifications to say you have missed an appointment. RIDICULOUS!!!!

My husband and myself have recently joined this practice and we are absolutely delighted . Staff are helpful, friendly and reassuring , which is great especially for anyone who is apprehensive about a visit to the dentist ( and who isn’t)! Surgeries themselves are spot on and treatments went ahead smoothly . We would happily recommend this practice to anyone who is looking for a dentist for the first time or if you are considering a move from your current practice. Prices are competitive and both NHS and private options are available .

Very happy once again with my treatment at Cavendish Dental Practice. I am always impressed by how welcoming and friendly the staff are. Dr Sadeura has restored my faith in dentists - she is highly skilled and always so careful and reassuring as she knows of my fears from a previous very bad experience elsewhere.
