A calmer way to improve your smile

If the dentist has never been your favourite place, you are in good company, and bonding is one of the kinder cosmetic treatments to ease back in with. There is no heavy drilling, almost always no injection, and nothing about it should feel like an ordeal. For a lot of our anxious patients from Wallington, it turns out to be the gentle first step that rebuilds their confidence in the chair.

We are a short trip east from Wallington, over from the station and Manor Road and on towards Purley, with Beddington Park behind you as you set off. When you reach Foxley Lane there is free parking right outside, so the visit begins without the stress of circling for a space.

If nerves have kept you putting this off, this page is written with you in mind.

How we keep it relaxed

The biggest thing we do for nervous patients is slow down. We explain each step before it happens, check in with you as we go, and never make you feel rushed or silly for needing a moment. You are always in control, and a raised hand means we stop, every time.

Bonding helps here too, by its nature. Because we add resin to the tooth rather than cutting into it, there is usually no need for an injection and no drill noise to brace against. We prepare the surface, build the composite in layers, shape it by hand, set it with a curing light and polish it smooth, all of it gentle and unhurried.

The same face, every visit

For anxious patients, seeing a different dentist each time is half the worry. Here you stay with one clinician from the free consultation right through to the final polish, so trust has a chance to build. Your care is led by dentists including Dr Nev Jeyakumar, Dr Christine Marzahn and Dr Andy, all known for a calm, patient manner.

Taking it at your pace

There is no pressure to commit at the first appointment, and no pressure to do everything at once. Some people start with a single tooth to see how they feel before going further, and that is completely fine. Most smiles come together over two to three visits across a few weeks, and we will happily keep each one short if that suits you better.

Bonding starts from an indicative £250 per tooth, with Tabeo finance and 0% options on qualifying treatment, so cost is one less thing to worry about. Your first consultation is free, and its only job is to listen and reassure.

Frequently asked questions

  • I am very nervous, will bonding hurt?

    No, bonding is comfortable and usually needs no injection because there is no drilling into the tooth.

  • Can I stop partway through if I need a break?

    Yes, you are always in control and a raised hand stops us straight away, every time.

  • Will I see the same dentist each visit?

    Yes, you stay with one clinician from your free consultation to the final polish, which most nervous patients find reassuring.

  • Can I try just one tooth first?

    Absolutely, many anxious patients start with a single tooth and build up their confidence from there.

  • What if I just want to talk things through first?

    That is exactly what the free consultation is for, with no obligation to book any treatment.
