Ann had not attended the dentist for a while due to her phobia. She presented with very loose lower teeth due to gum disease which needed removal and replacement. After careful planning including a ct scan the lower teeth were removed and replaced with implants at the same visit. At this visit a prefabricated lower denture was modified and attached to the dental implants. Ann had same day fixed teeth and is very pleased with her new teeth and smile. She is even more happy with her new confidence with her smile and attending the dentist.
Leslie is a long standing patient at Parrock street Dental Care. She required root treatment and 2 cerec crowns. She found the treatment painless and is very happy with the result.
Roger was very unhappy with his smile. He had very discoloured uneven teeth which prevented him smiling. Instead he would close his lips in photos and put on a false smile. Now after a new smile at Parrock Street Dental Care in Gravesend, Kent, with porcelain veneers and crowns he just can’t stop smiling!
Evelyn was very nervous about going to the dentist and had therefore had not been to see a dentist for many years. After just two appointments with us Evelyn felt really comfortable and at ease and can now confidently say that she will continue with regular checkups with Parrock Street Dental Care.
The following testimonial is from a patient who suffered from advanced gum disease. He had already lost a lot of his upper teeth as a result and the remaining teeth had become very loose and moved such that they gave a very unpleasant appearance. The patient was also wearing an upper denture which made the gums and teeth even more unhealthy. He had gum (periodontal) treatment carried out on the remaining healthy lower teeth to keep them healthy. He needed all the upper teeth and lower front teeth removed and replaced. We agreed to provide the best alternative to natural teeth when teeth are missing. Fixed ,strong, beautiful Dental implants. Several implants were placed in the upper jaw and lower front area and once healed, restored with bridges attached to them. This gave the patient his teeth back which not only enables him to enjoy all his favourite foods but also gives him a beautiful, healthy smile. No one knows they are not his natural teeth.

His testimonial follows:
“My previous dentist failed despite regular attendance to properly treat and maintain my teeth, therefore as a consequence I have had major work prescribed and carried out at Parrock Street Dental Care. Whilst having my treatment I felt that it was a complete u-turn to my previous dentist, in comparison Rik provided a very professional, personal and caring approach to my treatment. I have continued coming to this practice as I know I will receive professional progressive and leading edge treatment.
I feel very confident and assured by the treatment I continue to receive, Parrock Street Dental Care has transformed my attitude towards dentists and dentistry- TRY IT- YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!” (Mr. I.J. )
Chris has just had a smile makeover after years of disliking his teeth. Read his written testimonial below
“Previously I have had pretty bad experiences within dentistry with my previous dentists, i was pretty scared of having dental treatment- on a scale of 1-10 10 being the most petrified i was around 7-8.
Once i came to Parrock Street Dental Care, my view on dentistry changed, Rik is absolutely brilliant- there is no comparison. I was made to feel very calm and very informed which gave me a feeling of total trust. The dental treatment that i invested in has made me feel like a different person, i am SO confident now, i can’t stop smiling. My advise to any patients who are anxious/nervous is that you have nothing at all to worry about. I have never been treated so well”
This patient attended yesterday with a broken tooth in the smile area. This is an increasingly common finding with old fillings, crowns and teeth in people of all ages. We now have the perfect solution!
Our patient is a very busy business man and he was keen to get the problem resolved as soon as possible with the best solution involving minimum time. He was seen and completed his treatment the same day. He was over the moon with the whole experience.
At Parrock Street Dental Care (www.parrockstreetdental.co.uk or www.kentcosmeticdentists.co.uk) we are one of only a few practices in the country who have a Cerec Machine- one of the most advanced methods of designing and producing crowns/veneers and half crowns (inlays/onlays) to strengthen and improve the appearance of teeth.
The Cerec machine uses CAD-Cam technology (just like how they make cars) to manufacture these crowns and veneers the SAME DAY in just one simple appointment. No impression is required as only a picture is needed and no unsightly temporaries or the inconvenience of being numb and attending for a second appointment.
During the appointment you may relax and watch a film/play/comedy/documentary of your choice from our broad selection with our in chair dvd entertainment system.
In short it is the perfect way of having the perfect solution to an age old increasing problem.

The following patient attended our practice after having problems with his loose dentures. He was presented with a choice of treatment by Dr Stephen Tangney in which he chose to go ahead with a fixed bridge.
Read on to see what impact it has made to his life….
“My previous experience about dentistry was not very good before i came to Parrock Street Dental Care, I was not scared of my previous dentist but I was unhappy with the treatments offered. Parrock Street Dental Care is excellent in comparison to my previous experience as i was made to feel welcome and relaxed, and most importantly offered a choice of treatment.
I previously had a bottom plate with three teeth attached, they moved all the time and I was forever pasting them causing embarrassment. Now I have a bridge which is so natural i forget I have false teeth. I am so happy now as I can forget about it.
I was motivated to have a bridge as I was fed up with the plate moving in my mouth and having to keep pasting it.
The treatment that I received was excellent and it has increased my confidence and I am very happy with the end result!
If I had to give any words of advise to other patients nervous or anxious about visiting the dentist I can say that you will be made to feel relaxed and important, overall I was very satisfied with my whole experience.”
