Clarendon Dental and Orthodontic Practice 23 Clarendon Road, Southsea, Portsmouth, Southsea PO5 2ED

"I have an inherent fear of Dentists but was very impressed with Chiara, who is gentle, considerate and has a wonderful professional manner. She devised a comprehensive treatment plan for me and explained in detail what she proposed. I would highly recommend her services to anyone and am delighted to have found her."

"Booked an emergency appointment, lucky to get seen that same day and had my Wisdom tooth removed there and then after X-rays! Very pricey but the team are so welcoming, efficient and professional. Thank you especially to Dr Maria and Alison for being so helpful."

"I had my first time patient consultation recently and the level of care and service was incredible. I had a lovely, warm welcome from reception and was handed a welcome pack before being shown to the waiting room. The pack contained a picture and profile of the dentists and a detailed list of services. The waiting room is relaxing, clean and comfortable - very helpful when a dentist trip makes you anxious. The manager kindly informed me of a 10 minute delay before my appointment and immediately gave me a voucher for compensation. I was happy to wait anyway but the voucher was a lovely bonus. My appointment was incredibly detailed and they did a thorough look at every tooth (appointment was about 45 minutes). The dentist and the assistant were both smart, kind and friendly. I dont like the bright lights and they gave me sunglasses and let me listen to my music so I was comfortable. They showed me my X-rays and scans and we worked together to create a treatment plan going forward. Incredible service from the moment I walked through the door and I genuinely couldn’t fault them at all. Never thought I would say this… but I’m excited about my next trip to the dentist!"

"I hadn’t been to the dentist for a while and for the first time (ever!) I have a wonderful dentist in Maria. The team were so helpful and lovely and made me feel at ease from the moment I walked into the practice, explaining every step of the visit; their methods and why they were doing each part of the investigations they made me feel part of things and not in the least bit terrified (hey - we have all been there!). Appointment was 45 mins for a new patient including X-rays and overview/check up and I finally got to the bottom of all the issues that my previous male dentist had glossed over; or had not explained correctly. It was thorough and Maria is extremely professional. X-rays were taken and options of treatment were outlined. Everything was super clean and efficient and I would recommend anyone to go and see this amazing dentist for a supportive and helpful answer to your dental questions and queries. You can’t put a price on your health or teeth; so get them checked out today. I believe that they also offer dental insurance plans too, so this may be an option if you’re not covered (for example) by private medical insurance or cover etc Picture shows the waiting room area for patients on the hall floor level of the dental surgery near reception. Notes: accessibility; contact the practice for this as there are stairs to the front and also stairs to all floors. This is because the building is a house conversion."

"Squeezed me in as an emergency patient. The whole experience was pleasant. Any member of staff I met were happy. Pleasant and very understanding and sympathetic. Would highly recommend this practise"
