Went to see Dr Imran for a re root canal . He was very professional and made me feel at ease. He managed to clear the infection and save my tooth. Very happy patient. Thank you would highly recommend !

I’ve had a gum graft procedure done today, and honestly, Imran has been amazing. He was very reassuring throughout all my appointments leading up to the surgery. Imran and his team have been fantastic every step of the way—whenever I felt worried during phone calls, they reassured me and gave me the confidence to go ahead with the procedure. I didn’t feel any pain at all, and everything was done quickly and professionally. Thank you, Imran and your team.

Louise Brookes

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.

Really good dentist! Whether you need general dentistry or a cosmetic procedure, you will be well looked after. The team is very friendly and make you feel comfortable. They genuinely care, and it was a great experience overall.

Greg Parkinson

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.

Phil Hayton

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.

Phil Royles

I recently had composite bonding done and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, I was so nervous at first but the place and atmosphere was so calming and the whole experience was professional, comfortable, and completely stress-free. The attention to detail was amazing and everything was explained clearly before starting.

Kiran Liaqat

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.

Mike Quinn

Couldn't be more impressed. Mia and Kayli were truly extensional help - they went above and beyond in every possible way. Their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire visit smooth and stress-free. And I have to say, Imran is absolutely the best dentist in the business. His skill, precision, and calm approach instantly put you at ease. He genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in delivering top-quality work. Thanks to Mia, Kayli, and Imran, this was a 5-star experience from start to finish. 100% recommended!

Clear answers, confident choices

Your bruxism questions answered simply.

We keep everything straightforward so you always know what to expect. Here are some of the most common questions new patients ask.

What causes teeth grinding (bruxism)?

Bruxism is often linked to stress, anxiety, sleep disturbances, or bite issues. Some cases happen during sleep without you realising.

How do I know if I grind my teeth at night?

Common signs include worn teeth, jaw pain, headaches, or being told by a partner that you grind your teeth while sleeping.

Can teeth grinding damage my teeth permanently?

Yes. Over time, grinding can wear down enamel, cause cracks, and lead to sensitivity or broken teeth if left untreated.

What is a night guard and how does it help?

A custom-made night guard protects your teeth by acting as a barrier while you sleep, reducing pressure and preventing damage.

Can bruxism be treated permanently?

Treatment focuses on managing the cause and protecting your teeth. In some cases, addressing stress or bite issues can significantly reduce or stop grinding.
