Just back from treatment with Penny Melitou and George Billis at Billis Endodontics, and the difference in expertise was immediately clear from the start.

A proper X-ray and 3D scan revealed an infection and complex root anatomy, all explained calmly and clearly. The technology, including a full dental operating microscope, was impressive and reassuring. I was booked in for a root canal, and the second appointment lasted 1.5 hours yesterday completely painless and handled with total professionalism.

Thorough, expert, and genuinely caring service. In four decades as a hotelier, it’s rare to experience this level of care in the UK. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend them. Show less »

After avoiding dental treatment for nearly 20 years following a serious road traffic accident, I can honestly say that Gateway Dental Practice on Bruges Hill has completely changed my experience of dentistry.

Due to significant facial trauma and ongoing PTSD linked to medical environments, visiting a dentist has always been overwhelming. From my very first consultation at Gateway Dental in Bruges Hill, the team approached my situation with genuine understanding, patience, and professionalism. They took the time to listen to my history, acknowledge the psychological impact as well as the physical damage, and build a treatment plan around my comfort levels.

I required complex restorative dental work, including specialist dental implant treatment to replace teeth lost in the accident. The dentist carefully explained the implant process, bone support considerations, healing stages, and long-term outcomes in clear, reassuring detail. There was never any pressure—just structured, transparent planning and a calm, supportive approach.

The restorative dentistry carried out has been life-changing. The dental implants feel secure and natural, and the cosmetic and functional results have exceeded my expectations. For the first time in two decades, I can smile and eat comfortably again. The clinical standards, precision, and aftercare provided by this Bruges Hill dental practice are exceptional.

Most importantly, Gateway Dental truly understands patients with complex histories and dental anxiety. Their trauma-informed approach, combined with advanced restorative dentistry and implant expertise, makes them stand out as one of the leading providers of specialist dental implant and restorative dental services in the Bruges Hill area.

After 20 years of fear, I have finally found a dentist I trust completely. A genuine five-star experience. Show less »

The dental hygienist was equally professional, ensuring my teeth felt and looked noticeably better after the appointment.

My second visit to Gateway Dental. The first being for a complete check up and x-ray's. All comprehensive and thorough, which I like. Today's appointment with Dr Afrah Khan was to repair a broken filling. To say that Dr Khan is thorough is an understatement. Credit, where credit is due. Dr Khan is meticulous in her approach and procedure. I am nothing but im... Show more »

Awesome, I had three sketchy teeth that needed root canals or extraction. Though the work wasn't pleasant per se (no one enjoys root canals), George and the team are incredibly competent and managed to save all of them, including a particularly complex one that took two visits.

After many years of being terrified of dentist, I plucked up courage to try Gateway dental.
My mouth was full of rotten infected teeth, loose ones and I was really suffering.
I was made very welcome, reception staff are lovely and helpful and my dentist Ali was a magician!
He promised no pain, and after 9 teeth removed, few fillings and now a set of shiny new dentures I'm amazed at just how great not only Ali is but whole team so supportive.
So glad I went to Gateway. I have and will in future fully recommend Gateway, and I have a soft spot for Ali for keeping me calm, making me laugh and reassuring me all the way though treatment. Gold stars. Show less »

I have visited twice in the last week to have a niggling tooth sorted and a couple of fillings done. Anoushka could tell how nervous I was, but she put me at ease and constantly checked to make sure I was alright during the treatment. She explained what she was doing and why it was necessary, and she made recommendations for future treatment without being pushy. All staff from reception to nurses were kind and friendly. It was a pleasant experience (if visiting the dentist can be described as pleasant?!) and I would have no hesitation in recommending Gateway if you're looking for a new dental practice. Show less »
