After being recommended by friends about One & Only Dental, I made an appointment for a check up after being extremely disappointed by my old dentist. First impressions of One & Only Dental was lovely and very welcoming. My appointment was with Nuthan and her assistant James. I was made to feel very comfortable and at ease with both of them. The treatment I received was first class and one of which I have never received before from any dentist. My teeth have never looked so good! Nuthan is amazing and I would highly recommend her expertise to anyone. Thank you Nuthan and James!read more

The only dentist I will go to in the future Saw Venu last Friday who repaired a tooth beyond belief- he actually rebuilt it- then today attended for teeth cleaning and extraction of a wisdom tooth - I honestly did not feel anything- in fact didn’t know the tooth was out until he told me - Venu is so patient and explains everything thing to you very simply- and his nurse is great - cannot recommend this surgery enough - thank you - have already made my next tooth cleaning appointment-read more

I was so lucky to be seen by Dr Venu as an emergency on a Saturday afternoon for a broken tooth on the lower part of my jaw. When he heard that I was in pain, he saw me within the hour. He was so gentle and even put numbing gel on my gums before the injections which I then hardly felt. He was also very kind and patient with me throughout the procedure. Also, the healing after the extraction was remarkable. I would thoroughly recommend this dental practice and was so lucky to find them when I was in such discomfort.read more

I visited this dentist very apprehensively about a month ago in March 2023 with a nagging toothache, and I was told I needed wisdom tooth extraction, clean and two fillings. As you can imagine, this terrified me as I had a bad experience previously.On the day of tooth extraction, the procedure was completely painless, the same can be said for the fillings and deep scale and clean.I was an absolutely terrified patient before, now thanks to the lovely Mr Kilaru, my fear of dentists has disappeared.Cannot rate this dental practice any higher if I tried.read more

Nuthan is a fantastic dentist and I recommend the One & Only dental practice to anyone looking for the best service and treatment. She helped me to completely transform my smile in time for my wedding and was so patient with me every step of the way. From Invisalign, to teeth whitening and bonding, to general cleaning and check-ups she has been fantastic. Nuthan will always go the extra mile to ensure that you are happy and the practice itself is brilliant - everyone is extremely professional and friendly. Would highly recommend!read more

After my son had an accident today and damaged his two front teeth I rang late on a Friday afternoon and was told the practice was closed but they would speak to Nuthan and see if they would open up. I received a call within 5 minutes and was told to make our way to the surgery. Nuthan was nothing short of wonderful. She was calm, professional, friendly and clearly fabulous at her job. My sons teeth look perfect now. I would not have believed it was possible. What other dentist would do this for someone they had never met before. We will be back, worth every penny to get a service as great as this.read more

Having had so many awful dental experiences in the past, I was SO glad to find Nuthan. Not only is she amiable and hospitable, but she also uses state-of-the-art tech to show her patients what she does and recommends. Nuthan has also created a beautifully ambient reception which is great for calming nervous patients like me!read more

Nuthan is amazing. If you are nervous she is so calming, talks you through everything. Removed a wisdom tooth without my even knowing it was out yet. I still travel over 60 miles to see her. Would recommend to anyone.read more

It is fair to say I am not a fan of dentists in general as I have had some awful experiences. However from the very first phone call with One and Only I have felt safe and comfortable. I never once felt rushed or judged for my high levels of anxiety. If you are at all nervous of the dentist then I cannot recommend Venu enough. I was always made aware of what was happening and allowed to go at my own pace. I am thrilled with the results and so happy I used this service.read more

The best dental care I have ever experienced! Professional, courteous, and friendly staff made me feel like family… would highly recommend to anyone.
