Da Vinci Dental Clinic - Dental Implant Experts - Milton Keynes

"This is the best dentist I’ve ever been to. From the receptionists to the dentists to the specialists. They genuinely care about what they do and want you to be completely happy with your care and smile. Having previously been a pathetically nervous patient, I’m now fine with attending appointments and completely trusting them. I travel from a different county to attend and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them."

"If I could give a lower score than 1 star I would do. I Attended the Da Vinci Dental Clinic during lockdown November 2020. The practice is 90 miles from where I live but they were the only dental practice that I could find operating at the time. I was asked to complete a disclaimer and was then seen by Dr Tiago Moreira Da Silva, he seemed to be OK and proceeded to carry out a CT scan, the cost was £150.00. I was then told that I needed an implant (which is what I expected) the cost was around £2000 which I thought was about right for the work to be done. He then took impressions of my front teeth, and asked me to return two weeks later. On my return, Dr Da Silva operated on the area removed the root etc, fitted the implant into my Jaw bone and stitched the gum. I was asked to return a week later to remove stitches etc. I was then told to come back 4 months later to complete the work. All seemed Ok so far. I returned in April 2021 had another scan and a week later to have the implant cap removed and the tooth fitted. Dr Da Silva wasn't available, and another dentist was assigned to complete the work. He anaesthetised the area and proceeded to remove the cap ready for the new tooth. He was struggling, pulling and pushing, he was clearly worried and I assumed that all was not well, especially as the nurse looked very concerned. Eventually I heard a crack, he was now panicking, I didn't feel any pain as the area was anaesthetised, he asked me to make another appointment for two weeks later. That evening the pain was excruciating, and I had my suspicions that something was wrong. I returned two weeks later. As it was now a simple procedure of removing the cap and fitting the new tooth, anaesthetic wasn't required. The same dentist then proceeded to unscrew the cap, he was screwing it one way and then the other way, pulling and pushing, the pain was horrendous, there was lots of blood in my mouth, the nurse looked even more concerned, eventually he unscrewed the whole implant, blood was everywhere and the pain was unbearable. He said "it's gone wrong, I will have to refer you to an implant specialist" I said that I thought you were an implant specialist? he didn't reply. That evening I was in terrible pain and my gum was bleeding throughout the night. I decided that I didn't want to use the Da Vinci Clinic again and I contacted them by email and explained, what had happened and why I wouldn't be using them again. I received an email which they sent to me in error stating 'Please supply a full refund the the patient' ASAP with the USUAL apology letter' with three shocked emojis, this email was intended for the accounts department but came to me instead. I received my refund and four months later paid £2400 for the work to be done all over again elsewhere, having spent four months with a front tooth missing. The expert that looked into my case seemed to be on the side of the dentist. It's quite a close knit profession and I believe that they look after each other. The expert said 'you signed a disclaimer and that mean that you accepted that things can go wrong' basically, don't sign a disclaimer as it covers malpractice and they have no case to answer. At the end of the day I wouldn't trust the Da Vinci Clinic at all. You'd think that the least they could do is accept full responsibility and not hide behind a disclaimer which the patient has to sign. A reputable company would at the very least compensate a patient in this sort of event, but I believe as a few of the reviews state they want your money. Hard to believe the 5 star reviews, but I suppose anyone can access the site. Probably best to ignore the 5 stars and read the dissatisfied entries."

"To say I was petrified (again) at the idea of having dental implants, is an understatement but the alternative of not being able to eat or smile made having them done a no brainer. The team there are lovely, amazing in fact and they get the job done with professionalism and care, Georgia is a KEY member we of the team. She makes you feel welcome, special and cared for. They all do, very true but she has that extra sprinkle that keeps you coming back and settles your nerves. Her knowledge is beyond sitting behind that desk. No matter when you call her, she is forever upbeat, positive, friendly, helpful, gentle and kind. Overall, I walked away 6 months later being able to eat, snails and talk with ease. All the teams and I mean ALL the team have added value to my life in ways they will never understand and for that I thank you all. Jacqueline xx"

"One of the best Dental Clinic I have known. The dentist I first met was very knowledgeable and took time to do proper checks and thoroughly explained everything. The last appointment with the hygeinist was as good if not even better. The hygeinist was very experienced and knowledgeable. She did such a good job that I could not find a tiny bit of stain anywhere on my teeth. They are all caring and take time to understand the patients. I would surely recommend them to anyone. I wish all the very best to them."

"I have just completed a long course of treatment at Da Vinci - 3 implants, 2 crowns, a root canal and 3 fillings - and I am very pleased with the results. The dentists, assistants and receptionists have all been fabulous throughout. The prices are very cheap by UK standards - almost half what my usual dentist would charge - and whilst this is not quite as cheap as it would have been if I'd gone to Turkey, I'm very reassured by the peace-of-mind that I can drive there in an hour if there are any problems. If you need implants, I wouldn't hesitate Da Vinci."
