I'm a very nervous patient and found the treatment I received from Re-Ignate to be excellent. I was put at ease too by the sympathetic, professional Receptionist and Nicky, who made follow up calls. The after care was brilliant. Would highly recommend this practice.

So after many weeks of being let down with the wrong or bad treatment from my local dentist. I spent weeks contacting different dentists. I went to Re-Ignite Dental after seeing so much positive stuff on line. After 5 minutes with Dr Imran on my initial consultation I knew I was in the right place. I had my first visit, which was a root canal and I'd nearly say I enjoyed it lol. He shows so much passion in his work as do the nurses and reception staff that I am lucky to have found them. Yesterday my second visit and I had some composite bonding on my bottom teeth, and it didn't really hit me until I got home how good they actually looked. Now I'm looking forward to my next appointment to have my upper teeth done. Thanks so much.

As a new patient, I was impressed from the outset by how efficient and well-organised the onboarding process was. Registration, medical history and initial assessments were handled smoothly, with clear communication throughout.The whole team are friendly, approachable and professional — you feel looked after the moment you walk in. The practice also uses advanced digital scanning and high-technology software, which really elevates the patient experience. Seeing detailed imaging and treatment planning in real time adds clarity and reassurance. It’s clear this is a modern, forward-thinking practice investing in technology to improve care. A genuinely positive experience from start to finish.

I recently had composite bonding, whitening and a scale and polish at Re-Ignite. I couldn’t speak more highly of my experience, my teeth look extremely natural yet perfect. Between Imran, Mia, Leah and Freya, my experience was 10/10 and I’d highly recommend.

Absolutely 100% recommend this dental practice, the whole team are lovely. I had root canal treatment at a reasonable cost. Dr Imran is very impressive as I felt no pain and was made to feel comfortable throughout the whole procedure. The before, during and after care from the friendly dental nurses and reception team is brilliant and authentic, they really do care about your experience as a patient. Thank you so much.
