Denturist Consultation Oxfordshire

Annual dental and hygienist check-up completed efficiently and swiftly. Always a good experience.

Apologies for the long story, but it's a worthwhile read. At 9AM on Sunday 13th March I was due to jump in the car and drive down to get married after a 2 year COVID induced delay. At 4AM that morning a loud crack at my mouth woke me up, and to my horror I realised my bridge had fallen out and I now had a tooth sized gap in my smile. At 7AM, after 3 rather stressful hours I called the emergency number on Amsel & Wilkins answering machine which was immediately answered by Nigel. After explaining my emergency, Nigel told me to meet him at 8AM and he'd fix me right up. Nigel opened up the practice just for me, on a Sunday morning, and by 8.45AM I was walking back up Banbury High Street relaxed and stress-free (well as stress-free as you can be before your wedding) with all my teeth in my mouth - rather than in my pocket. By 4.30PM I was tucking into pork belly and crackling like nothing had happened. A huge thank you to Nigel from me and my new wife for saving my smile on our wedding day, as well as from our photographer who you saved from many, many hours of photoshop. Finally, my bestwoman thanks you for the additional story for her speech, one that received plenty of gasps and laughter. From a very appreciative patient for life.

Dr. Charl du Toit is easily the friendliest, compassionate dentist you could ask for and clearly puts your oral health before anything else. I had been seen by another practice before a quoted £1200 for treatment, yet for the same treatment, he quoted almost half that! He then recommended a more conservative course of treatment with a clear rationale as to why it is worth trying (only one filling that time round, not 5) and not only gave good advice but again, provided a clear explanation of why it should be followed and how it works. To top it off he helped solve an issue that I've had for over 10 years (recurrent ulcers from playing the clarinet as I had very pointy canines) at no extra charge! He alleviated all anxiety I had about needles and possible pain and gave me full control over stopping if I felt anything untoward. The moment I made a sound (from the coldness of the water) he immediately stopped and let me explain. This is someone who is not only brilliantly skilled (I felt no pain at all, a slight chill was all) and an expert, but clearly is in the profession principally to help people. Not only was his treatment cheaper off the bat, but he also recommended a more conservative approach that may well be even cheaper for me.

Thank you to the staff for all the support I received with my recent tooth extraction. I was a nervous patient and had put off treatment for a long time. I needn’t of worried as I was treated with the utmost respect and care. I felt no pain and had no complications. A great team!
