I am an extremely nervous patient and by that I mean crying, shaking and generally being completely nuts when it comes to visiting the dentist. I am so incredibly grateful to the team at Beechcroft. Abi (dentist) and Charlotte (hygienist) are so patient, empathetic and generally wonderful people who are also bloomin amazing at what they do. I cannot recommend them enough. 🙏🏻😃🦷🪥

I can not recommend this dental practise enough. The team are fantastic! Very attentive and I always feel very well looked after. I had an implant fitted few years ago and they have done an amazing job! Very happy with the results! Thank you to all the team!

I used to be a very nervous patient until joining beechcroft practice many years ago. Christiaan always makes me feel at ease he is very pleasant and takes the time to explain procedures. I was very happy with the dental work i had done today. The whole team is very friendly.

I have been attending Beechcroft for 34 years & would never go to any other dental practice. The quality of the treatment offered is second to none. Have you ever fell asleep during root canal treatment? Well I have. Lester is a true professional & artist. The hygienists deserve worthy praise too.

I returned from the US and needed to complete a crown process.Dr Lester Aldridge was amazing - he knew exactly how to proceed with the implant although the process was done by another surgeon abroad. he needed to order special tools and 2 appointments, and it was all done.Very happy with the treatment.

Outstanding dental care and service from the Beechcroft team. I had a new crown fitted in just one day. We moved away from Wokingham some years ago, but still travel the 75 miles back to be treated at the Beechcroft Practice because of their excellent service. Andrew Fox 03/12/2004

As a very nervous patient, I have recently had a new Bridge fitted at Beechcroft. This also involved crowning a tooth and an extraction. I would highly recommend Dr Angelo Fernandez for his highly professional but calm, patient and reassuring manner throughout. I have a complicated bite and Angelo has been meticulous in perfecting the best result for me. His dental nurse is wonderful too. 😊

The team at Beechcroft is wonderful. Every person is kind and caring but also very thorough in their approach. The hygiene standards are exemplary. They always do their best to ensure you have a pleasant experience. Importantly, my family always feel that they genuinely care about them, and this is what consistently sets them apart from other providers.

I came across the Practice over 3 years ago. I have been seeing Aby since then and I will definitely recommend her over and over. Her work is very professional, precise and effective. She fixed a chip tooth few months ago in a very short notice. She blended the colour perfectly and ensured the appearance of the new tooth was as the original one. No one notice I have a partly fake tooth. I am definitely very pleased with the work done. The hygienists also provide and excellent work. My family and myself feel in good hands with all the service provided within the practice.

Been coming here for years, since a school kid 50 years ago. Staff have changed obviously but place is always relaxing and welcoming. You just can't beat a converted Victorian house. My one grip, and it's true of all private dental practices, is the cataclysmic charges. Yes its a very skilful job with some astoundingly expensive equipment, but so is open heart surgery, and how much would that cost me..... just saying. Just don't understand why this is not included in the NHS, it's just another part of your body that occasionally needs fixing. I know there are NHS dentists.....somewhere, but you rarely get free treatment. Why is dental care unique ?

As always, an excellent dental experience. I always feel informed and part of the decision making and I am very pleased with the outcomes.

Good and pleasant service, however, disappointingly a recent, straightforward extraction was exactly twice the price of a friend’s identical extraction from a practice 3 miles away!

Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Dentists are professional, caring and explained fully my treatment and put me at ease. Would highly recommend Beechcroft Dental Practice.

I have complex dental issues compounded by a fear of the dentist, so having an understanding and patient dentist who I can trust is extremely important. I have been a patient of Christiaan Miles at Beechcroft for several years, having returned from a holiday with some horrible dental work. He has systematically put my mouth back together and I cannot speak highly enough of his skill, patience, and good humour through it all. Everyone at Beechcroft has treated me with respect and kindness - reception staff, hygienists, nurses. Thank you Christiaan and all the team.

Recently switched from NHS to Beechcroft. Appointment was bang on time & Abi & her assistant were very polite, friendly & professional. Abi structured a payment plan in order to make it affordable for me whilst getting the work I require done. It is the best decision I've made & I'm sure I'll be a patient of Abi's for a long time.

In the past, going to the dentist has always been an uncomfortable experience for me but having recently moved to Abi at Beechcroft I no longer feel that way. When I arrived at my appointment I was greeted by Abi and almost immediately taken through to be seen. Abi made me feel completely at ease throughout my appointment with her calm and gentle manner. She is very knowledgeable and quickly set up a plan of how to fix my teeth and I look forward to seeing the end results.

A brilliant dental practice, with friendly professional staff all the way through. Christian Miles has been our family dentist for a couple of years now. Not only is he a tremendous all round expert, but has the friendly charm that makes us quite honestly look forward to our appointments. His approach with children is brilliant. Our 3 year old loved every minute of his appointment! Cannot recommend enough!

Very unhelpful staff. When I said I needed an urgent appointment as a crown had come loose they asked when I was available, and I said tomorrow. The receptionist said 'none available' and didn't suggest any alternative. I suggested several more days with the same response before finally being told there was nothing for another 10 days, and no offer to provide an emergency appointment due to the situation. No empathy, no professionalism, and terrible customer service.

Very impressed. Just had a new crown fitted and the job was completed in a morning. Christiaan explains everything that he is doing and puts you at ease. Can honestly say that I didnt feel a thing and the tooth looks and feels great. Thanks

A shout out for Abi. I admit to being an awkward patient in the chair but her patience and skill gets us through. Many thanks Abi.

To say I'm a nervous patient is an understatement, however Abi is amazing. She acknowledges I'm anxious and gives me options without any judgement.I've seen Abi and Kate in the practice and both are wonderful with me. I wouldn't have any one else, both perfect.

I wanted to add a review after my treatment over the past months and notably last week, when I had a large molar tooth extracted. I highly commend Claire Rilett and the team; friendly, efficient and effective... the extraction was something I'd been concerned about due to a difficult experience with a wisdom tooth at a different dentist, but Claire made the process much more bearable. I have minimal bruising or swelling, so I'm sure it will be much faster to heal. If you want a friendly, professional dentist practice, you've found it.

I've been going to Beechcroft Dentists since I first got teeth (in the 1980s!!). I really highly rate the care from my dentist Emma, she is very caring and considers my teeth within the bigger picture of my (complex) general health issues. I moved away from Wokingham 15 years ago but still travel back the two hour each way journey to go to this dental surgery as it is really good.

I have been visiting this practice for years and am so impressed with Christiaan and Katie that I travel 80 miles to get there. Mad? Absolutely not. Christiaan's chair side manner is relaxing and I trust him and his advice , implicitly. He does not do 'work' unnecessarily and for me, those qualities in anyone, let alone a dentist are worth travelling a million miles for.

My family and I have been attending Beechcroft for many years, and we have always received an outstanding level of service. Christiaan is highly recommended, and is also extremely good at putting my children at ease when visiting. A trip to the dentist has now become a positive experience for them! Useful appointment reminders are received before every appointment, and ALL Beechcroft staff are extremely friendly and polite. Highly recommended practice. 10/10.
