Headless Cross Dental Practice

Simon is friendly, professional and explains all treatments clearly. He and the team make you feel welcome and at ease. He uses photographs to enhance explanations and talks through options for your treatment with care. My teeth are now straight, thanks to Simon and an aligner, which took just 12 weeks! I now smile with confidence. He is an exceptional and dedicated dentist, always researching and keeping up to date with dental innovations, treatments and technological advances. I highly recommend the treatment, service and care you receive from Simon and the team.

An exceptional dental practice. Visited recently as a new patient and found friendly and helpful reception staff plus an excellent appointment system. I was seen by Dr Martin Craven who has been most welcoming, approachable and professional - taking the time to explain treatment options and potential outcomes. I feel very reassured to have met someone as capable as Martin who is doing a wonderful job of restoring my dental health.

Martin is without doubt the best dentist I have ever been to. He is very professional, explains everything clearly, is very patient and gentle, and very considerate regarding patient's comfort and welfare. He is also very friendly with a manner that puts you immediately at ease.
My wife had been a patient of Mr Norman for many years and was quite concerned when he retired, but having now been with Martin since he moved to the practice, she thinks he is exceptional.
I cannot rate this young man highly enough.

Having had an upsetting experience with a previous practice, we sought an alternative and joined Headless Cross Dental Practice as a family. One of the best decisions we have ever made.

The level of care and professionalism is first class. Not only have my previous fillings been corrected, the advice and hygienist treatments have ensured that my oral health has improved greatly.

The staff are always reassuring, and as someone that is a bit scared of dentists this has been so important.

I feel like we are getting the best possible care with people that we trust. I couldn't recommend them enough.

I have been going to Martin for a number of years now, even following him from his previous practice. He is the best dentist I have ever had. I used to be quite nervous but now I dont mind going at all. Martin is super friendly, very patient and gentle. My husband and parents have also moved to see him and we all highly recommend him. Thank you Martin!

We always have a positive experience with Martin and the entire team. Myself, husband and 3 young boys see Martin and he is making sure that the boys get very comfortable and confident seeing a Dentist. We all receive great care and advice, thank you.

I visited today and I wanted to make it known how happy I was with the service I received. All of the necessary precautions were in place following COVID.
Martin was very thorough during my consultation giving me amazing aftercare. He was very professional, informative and made me feel at ease.
Tina the dental nurse was also lovely!

Ps.. try and find waldo - it took me approximately 3 minutes ;)

My first filling at 33 years old.

Over the past few months, I have been having a problem with one of my molars, I had been ignoring it and putting it down to stress. I decided to bite the bullet and get it checked out.

Dr Simon carried out a thorough examination and took photographs and an x-ray of the affected tooth so I could see what the problem was. He was very informative and talked me through all the options available.

Filling day:
I was very nervous on the day of my filling. I had never had a filling before. Simon and his lovely nurse Lucy were very welcoming during the appointment and made me feel at home.

Simon talked me through the process before we got started so I knew every step of the way. He talked me through the images he had taken at the assessment and his plan for the tooth.
I didn't even feel the injection at all, just the cold air from the suction (and I've had quite a few injections in the past from various health professionals).

He isolated the tooth with a rubber sheet, which I have to say was amazing. I could swallow at ease without any horrible tastes, I didn't need to worry about breathing as my mouth wasn't filling up with water and it made the whole process a lot easier.
His wonderful nurse Lucy kept checking in on me throughout the appointment (which was really sweet of her).

Simon also took detailed photographs of each stage of the treatment. It is safe to say the filling needed doing, he showed me a photograph of the decay inside the tooth, which was pretty gross :-(

I am really pleased with my new tooth, it looks amazing, I can barely see where the filling is, he's blended it in so well :-D

Reflecting on the advice given during the appointment, I have changed my diet and gotten rid of the bar of galaxy caramel I used to eat in the evening, as I don't want any more fillings.

I would highly recommend Dr Simon Walker for any filling/restorative work.

Thank you for my new tooth :-D
