Dentistry @ No.3 has been built around our commitment to providing *pain free dentistry to all our patients.

The team are trained in the latest painless techniques to take the stress and worry out of your visit to the practice.

It is completely understandable that some people are scared of seeing the dentist. We appreciate that dental phobia is something that affects a lot of people. Fear can manifest itself differently for each individual. Some of you may just feel anxious at the thought of having dental treatment, whilst others are scared of injections in the mouth, the sound of the drill, or even the smell of a dental practice.

Fear of the dentist is nothing to be ashamed of. You may have had a bad experience in the past, or may be worried or embarrassed because you haven’t been for a while, and know that you need some work doing. We are not here to judge you in any way, we are only here to help you, taking the stress and worry out of seeing the dentist.

If you would like to know more about our Dentistry for Nervous Patients, please call us today or complete the form below for a Complimentary Consultation.

Don’t worry if you are not comfortable coming to the practice yet, we can arrange for one of our Smile Advisors to meet you at a local coffee shop, where you can relax with a hot drink and discuss your concerns in a hassle free, calm environment.

We Promise To Never Judge You

Chose Dentistry No3 following recommendations. Whilst only having had my initial appointment I was not disappointed. I have a major fear of the dentist and suffer from severe anxiety at the thought of attending any dentist. I need not have worried, the staff were friendly and the practice yet professional had a relaxed atmosphere. Staff were informative and knowledgeable and treatments explained without any obligation. Good payment options available.

Everyone I met in the practice has been so friendly. Rebecca is a marvellous dentist. I have found her to be so diligent and meticulous. I had an issue which was not Rebecca’s fault and she worked so hard and patiently with me to get the issue resolved and to make sure I had the best outcome with my treatment. There’s not many ‘Rebeccas’ going around. Well done and thank you! '

Would thoroughly recommend Dentistry @No3! All the staff are so very helpful and Rebecca, who carried out my dental treatment, was brilliant from start to finish - she was meticulous in making sure my results were as I had hoped and was always on hand to answer any queries/make sure I was happy with how everything was going. A great experience all round!

Everyone at dentistry @ no 3 are so friendly and professional. Like many, I had a fear of the dentist. I've just had a 2 hour appointment today with rebecca. She made me feel so relaxed and at ease and always asking if I was ok. Everything was as they say "pain free". Didnt even know she had given me an injection. Gone are the sleepless nights before dental visits. I would highly recommend rebecca at dentistry @ no3

I have had treatment with both Kirsty and Alistair this week and I can’t thank them enough. I was put at ease straight away. They explained every step of my treatment, what it would feel like and sound like. They checked I was ok throughout my appointments. I can honestly say I have never been so relaxed in a dentist chair. If, like me you are anxious of the dentist, I would highly recommend Dentistry no3

Leigh-Anne P.
Highly recommend Dentistry @ No3.I had extractions, implants, bridge and crowns all done by Ali.Totally pain free. Ali explained everything he was doing at each appointment, cannot thank Ali enough for his care and attention to detail. He made sure I was ok and knew what was happening all the way through the treatment plan. From Leigh for my consultation, the receptionists, Kirsty the hygienist to Ali and the dental nurses everyone was lovely and welcoming. Thank you all.

Absolutely excellent.I have avoided the dentist for over 15 years as I was terrified after a horrible experience when I was younger. Eventually after having some pain that I couldn’t ignore any longer I made an appointment with Dentistry No3.Can genuinely say these guys have absolutely changed my outlook. Niall (dentist) and Laura hygienist) have both gone above and beyond to help me. They’re been so reassuring and let me take things at my own pace. Even during my panicking, both of them and their dental nurses made me feel safe and in control of what was happening.I LOVE how my teeth feel and look now, and feel so much more confident in attending appointments. Every member of the team from Leigh the smile advisor to reception have been brilliant.Thank you all so much!(P.S my appointment with Laura this week was the first time I’ve not cried before/during a dentist appointment for about 30 years!!!!)

I really took the time to investigate who I wanted to get my smile wedding ready for my big day. Dentistry @ no 3 really took the time to listen and get my appointments lined up so my smile was ready for my wedding. Dr Ali is definitely the best in the business! If you are looking for that extra boost of confidence - I would highly recommend Dentistry @ no.3.

Have had a great experience at this practice. I had a broken tooth that I thought couldn’t be salvaged. Ali saved the tooth and replaced an old, ill fitting crown next to it. It looks fantastic. Am really pleased. Care has been first rate.The team have been really flexible when booking me in too, to accommodate my difficult working hours. Can’t thank them enough.

Incredible! I cannot thank Rebecca and the team at Dentistry @ no3 enough! I’ve just completed my Invisalign with whitening and composite bonding and the results are better than I ever could have imagined. I highly recommend if you are thinking of getting dental treatment. They could not do enough to make the process as easy as possible and made sure I was 100% happy. I’m so delighted and cant stop smiling!

Having had a recommendation from my partner about Dentistry@ No 3, I thought I will give them a try. I was told that the treatment you receive is totally pain free, after getting 5 teeth out and a new denture fitted I can honestly say the whole process was indeed totally pain free. Alisdair Colquhoun is an outstanding dentist and I highly recommend this practice.

I have come to the end of my smile journey with Ali. I arrived as a nervous patient who had lived for years with low self esteem as a result of my teeth. I can honestly say that Ali has changed all of this for me, I love my new teeth/smile I no longer fear the dentist and I have found my confidence again, I no longer try to cover my mouth when I talk. I shared with Ali that in my original wedding pictures I was embarrassed to smile, I am returning to my wedding venue this year in Florida to celebrate my 10th wedding anniversary and I now plan to recreate some of our pictures as I can now smile at my husband with out embarrassment. I can’t thank Ali and the team enough for giving me back my smile and confidence, and I no longer fear the dentist, I would recommend dentistry No 3

I went to Dentistry @ No 3 as I had broken a crown. My own dentist told me he was certain I had 3 broken teeth, he didn't know what was keeping them in and he wasn't willing to tackle the work required. I was extremely worried, but Ali put me totally at ease and explained all my options including the possible need for implants. After thorough, pain free, investigation Ali confirmed I did not need implants, but my old, ill-fitting crowns needed to be replaced and the broken crown was root treated. The work is now complete and I couldn't be happier. My crowns are natural looking and a great colour match. Ali is easily the best dentist I have ever been to. It helps that he explains what he's going to do, so no surprises - and all totally pain free! All the staff are amazing and I would highly recommend Dentistry @ No 3.

My experience with Dentistry @ no.3 has been amazing from start to finish. From my initial consultation with Leigh, where we looked at all of my different options for my desired result, to the finished dental treatment by Rebecca. Rebecca put me at ease right away and was so friendly all the way through my treatment. She is a perfectionist and my teeth look better than I could have imagined. I had a course of Invisalign, followed by the replacement of silver fillings, whitening and composite bonding. My teeth look so natural. I can’t stop smiling and feel so much more confident. The girls at the front desk and of the dental nurses were all so welcoming and professional. I recommend Dentistry @ no.3 to everyone! First class service and all round experience.

I met Leigh initially for a consultation, who then matched me up with my Dentist Rebecca, a treatment plan was discussed & completed.Rebecca was very patient & excellent at her job. She carried out the plan, over a period of time & on completion I am delighted with the outcome.I now use the annual dental plan, getting checkups twice a year & visiting the hygienist every 3 months.I feel like smiling all the time, previously I was so self conscious about my teeth. Thank you to Rebecca Masterton & the rest of the team!

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dentistry No.3 to anyone. I have recently completed treatment on my teeth with Invisalign to straighten and align my top and bottom teeth. Finished off with composite edge bonding. Everything is so thorough and every appointment felt like a spa visit rather than a dentist appointment!I also can't sing Rebecca's praises highly enough. She is so personable with an incredibly calming manner and gentle approach to practice. I always felt at ease and knew exactly what to expect at each appointment. Everything was always explained to me before and during any work being done.I've enjoyed this journey so much that I was sad it was over! So much so that I have decided to transfer my core dental health over to Dentistry No3 as well as my two children through their dental plan.

I've been to dentists over the years and although they have been ok , I wasn't really particularly impressed or indeed selective about one dentist or another ... That is until I started as a patient at Dentistry @ No 3 , courteous , polite , they listen to what you actually want , even as bespoke as it might be, nothing is too much of a problem to them. Niall Henderson is really calming and explains the process. Pain free too , I have very sensitive areas in my mouth and I can't stand pain . This is the only dental practice where , whilst I was having fillings done etc and must have been on the chair for almost an hour or so , I was relaxed, so much so that I woke my self from a micro nap with a snore whilst the dentist was at work in my mouth ... embarrassingly true !! I am very happy with the way they operate and would recommend them to anyone who really cares about their smile as I do . I am very very fussy where dental work is concerned . Thank you Dentistry @ No .3 you are really exceptional at what you do.

My review is based on dental implants. I had an aging Maryland dental bridge consisting of x2 front teeth, and it was beginning to feel less secure with a worry of potential breakage. The bridge had already exceeded the life expectancy by nearly a decade, and I had some gum receding around one of the adjacent teeth of which the bridge was attached, so I was considering dental implants as a long-lasting solution.I already knew these had a high cost, so a little homework was required beforehand to ensure the investment was sound. I was already familiar with Dentistry No.3 due to a dental-cautious partner who had visited them previously and spoke highly of the experience.Although Dentistry No.3 was the furthest practice from my home, I ended up choosing them to carry out the work. There were several reasons for this. Primarily they were the first dentist out there I had contacted during the aftermath of Covid who were willing to get me in to help alleviate severe abscess pain, when most other dentists locally were still refusing to see people, leaving others in severe pain for an undetermined period. Among them were dental surgeries that were offering the dental implants I was initially considering, and because of the uncertainty around further restrictions, I did not want to undergo this kind of a procedure with a surgery that could steer towards imminent delays. Dentistry No.3 were far more prompt in that regard. The setting is very comfortable and the staff and dentists themselves all very friendly, which can be a stark parallel to many NHS dental surgeries out there, unfortunately. I had things, even little things identified during my implant appointments (that booked just for the implants) that were either missed or overlooked during full routine checks from my regular NHS dentist. I'm not sure if that speaks of the high attentiveness of the dentists at Dentistry no.3 or the inattentiveness of the NHS dentists, but it certainly provides reassurances that you're in great hands. They also offer a lifetime guarantee with their dental implants for extra peace of mind.The implant procedure itself, wasn’t one that was rushed. All possibilities were explored including gum grafts. I received a bone graft prior to the implant fitting, along with temporary bridges and gum shaping all carried out to ensure that the implants were the best that they could be. It was a procedure that was carried out delicately, but very precisely, and I was very happy with the end results.Thanks to Leigh, Ally and the rest of the team at Dentistry No.3. for making this a surprisingly comfortable experience

I can’t recommend this practice enough, hands down the best Dentist I’ve ever visited! Alisdair made me feel confident about the treatment and relaxed, and I usually feel very anxious in the chair! Treatment was carried out meticulously and pain free! Everyone is friendly, professional and a offer great standard of care. Updated - visited Shereen & Irene today for a Hygiene appointment and I'm again really pleased with both the treatment and results. Shereen was excellent and gave great advice, and I loved the charity donation made on my behalf - booked my next appointment already.Updated Jan ‘22 - just had my dental implant completed and so happy with it! Ali is a total perfectionist and guided and reassured me throughout the process, which seemed daunting at first but I needn’t have worried. The lab matched the new implant to my teeth perfectly and it was painless throughout, which is incredible. The team are all excellent, I wish I’d had it done years ago. Thank you!Update Nov 22 - started Invisalign treatment, great service as always - can’t wait to see the results!

Leigh was very friendly and also very knowledgeable. We talked through what I was thinking about and various treatment options. Her approach was very much appreciated as I was slightly apprehensive about my visit.My treatment with Rebecca couldn't have gone any better. Always a relaxed and reassuring atmosphere from walking in the door to leaving pain free. Every appointment I knew what was happening, a massive help for anyone with any anxiety around visiting the dentist. Many thanks.

I am delighted with my end result! I initially asked for an implant, however after consultation we decided that a Maryland bridge was a better option just due to the size of my mouth and teeth. Excellent process and pain free. I would always reccomend their services.

Highly recommend Dentistry @ No3!I was self conscious about my teeth for years and decided to get Invisalign in preparation for my wedding. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I was treated by Rebecca who is absolutely amazing - so welcoming, friendly and professional. She went above and beyond to make sure my smile was perfect for my wedding. Thank you so much Rebecca!All of the staff are great - reception team, Leigh the Smile Consultant, the Dental Hygienists - all amazing at what they do.

Having a smile like Shrek, I thought, "what's the worst that can happen?" so I went along to see Dr Ali and young Natalie and told them, "I want a smile like hers" pointing to Mrs C who has teeth like you'd see in an Oral B toothbrush advert. I'd expected laughter, but no, just reassurance and an Invisalign plan. So over the following couple of months things started looking pretty good: I got really quite positive during the whitening stage. Then Doc Ali (the smile whisperer) started the final stages of filing down the fangs and adding composite to the thread bare incisors until finally, young Natalie handed me a mirror and asked; pleased? I wasn't pleased, I was blinking ecstatic; almost crashed the car twice on the way home smiling at myself in themirror!! I've also discovered, if you smile at people, they smile back, especially Mrs C; what's not to like?!

I am honestly blown away with the level of care that I have received, from seeing the lovely Leigh to go through my options, to Rebecca for sorting a plan of action and moving things along so quickly, and today I met the lovely hygienist Kirsty who was just amazing, I have a real fear of the dentist down to a past experience and I can honestly say I am not scared for the rest of my treatments, can not wait for the end result. Thank you guys and also thank you to lovely ladies on reception who are so friendly you are all doing an amazing job.
