What Our Patients Say
-
Great experience from beginning to end. A very conspicuous crown needed replacing (lost through a traumatic injury in my early teens) and an implant was suggested. Robin’s approach was excellent – bringing his very deep and broad experience, allied to innovative techniques underpinned by leading approaches to dentistry led to a superb result – the first time since losing the tooth nearly forty years ago where I have felt confident with how it looks and feels. Next step, looking at a similarly complex canine replacement and I have every confidence that Robin and his team will deliver a similarly high quality result.

My elderly father Mr Choudhry was treated by Mr Robin Horton. He was very well looked after and very satisfied with the treatment received. Mr Horton is a credit to Wayside Dental Practice, and his passion for his profession is inspiring. This dental practice is highly recommended.

Went to this dentistry after having treatment done at Bowers way surgery. I had been going to Bowers way for years and had fillings done which kept failing time and time again. This time round same story but I had severe infection and the tooth had rotten.
I called up Bowers way and they couldn’t fit me in, excuses after excuses they phoned up and said “we can only get you in for a check up-” when I needed an extraction. I called around and wayside accommodated me. I went at my appointment on the day and was seen and tooth removed!
It was pricey but it was worth not having to be messed about Bowers Way Surgery!
Barry Allen 10 October 2023 (Google Review) -
I don’t often write reviews but I had to write one about Wayside Dental Practice. I wore a brace in for 18 months, my orthodontist recommended I go to Wayside for my cosmetic work once I had the brace off.
I am so happy with the results. I just want to keep smiling.
The practice is so nice and comfortable I felt at ease as soon as I went in. The staff are so professional from the reception to dentist. Nothing is too much trouble.
My dentist was Saneel. He is so professional and has a very nice manner. He is an absolute perfectionist and worked really hard to make sure I was happy with the final results.
I would highly recommend going here for any dental treatment and Saneel is a pleasure to deal with.
Jeanette Brown 9 October 2023 (Google Review) -
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Saneelfor the patience you have shown whilst working on my son’s teeth this last week or so. I know his case is not straight forward and the position/condition of his teeth make the situation more complex. You have however managed to achieve a really good outcome and his smile is now looking so much better. I think that he too is secretly quite delighted – although teenage boys don’t always let this show!
We’ll see you in a couple of weeks for a final look but I just wanted to say thank you before then. We still have a long dental journey but at least for the time being (and heading into sixth form next week) he can have confidence in his smile!

I am a long standing patient of the practice, and over the past 5 years I have had 4 implants, with Robin doing all of the work, and each time the experience was excellent, and with an end result that I am incredibly happy with.
Most recently, during the past 6 months, I again needed some quite complex treatment. We were trying to save a molar, which needed complex root/root canal treatment, followed by a new crown. This time, Amit completed all the work, over 4 visits preparing for the crown, then fitting the crown. From the outset, Amit talked through his proposed approach, what it would involve, the likely time required, the risks etc, and throughout the treatment really provided excellent commentary, feedback etc. He was always very reassuring. I always knew what was happening, and what the next steps were. He knew I wanted to save the tooth if at all possible, and this was achieved. His style and composure was excellent. I have high expectations of Wayside, but as always, those expectations were met and exceeded. Thanks for the help, as always.

After a tooth that I damaged many years ago finally had to be extracted (it was a molar so left a big gap), I was worried about having an implant as I had heard stories of how painful and uncomfortable the process was likely to be. However, with Robin’s expertise and state of the art technology, nothing could have been further from the truth. It was all very straightforward and virtually painless. The gap has now gone! Many thanks to Robin and his excellent colleagues.
Keith Parker 28 September 2023 (Google Review) -
Brilliant practice. Have just been treated by Dr. Saneel Patel for Invisalign. Whole process excellent and explained to me very well. Took me through process step by step. Am thrilled with end result. Thank you so much. Would always recommend Wayside & especially Saneel not just for his expertise in Invisalign but generally. Very professional & easy going manner.
Julie Stoker 25 September 2023 (Google Review) -
I am so so pleased with my results with Dr Saneel Patel. I have been trying to straighten and whiten my teeth for ten years and have tried some top recommended places but none compare to Wayside. The attention to detail is phenomenal and I felt listened to and in good hands. Would highly recommend 10/10

I have recently undergone treatment with Robin using the laser and guided implant surgery technique.
Steve Morton 8 August 2023 (Google Review)
Having had implants previously as a comparison I have to say that this technique is fantastic. I did not feel any discomfort during or after whatsoever. The time taken from start to finish has been half of traditional methods.
I would like to thank Robin and his staff for their superb treatment and highly recommend this technique to anyone considering implants.
Robin ,I thank you !
Steve Morton. -
I have been terrified of dentists for over 60 years (stemming from a bad experience as a child) but the practitioners at Wayside always respect my feelings and with their patience and understanding, I now have the confidence to have routine treatments without turning into a nervous wreck.
On Friday I saw Dr Saneel Patel as I thought I had lost a filling. In fact, the tooth had split and needed to be extracted. After explaining my options, he and his assistant patiently did the job for me (despite the fact that I had reverted to nervous wreck mode!) They were brilliant – kind, caring, considerate and very, very patient. Highly recommended.
Janice Danby 17 July 2023 (Google Review) -
I went in to get a wisdom tooth removed and saw Amit; he was extremely friendly and professional and he put me at ease straight away. He removed the tooth very quickly and completely painlessly. I was given written information on post-care for the hole and I have not had any pain or discomfort since. All staff at the practice were extremely welcoming and nice and I have since booked further appointments. I would throughly recommend this dental practice.
Toby Newcombe 14 June 2023 (Google Review) -
I’ve been a patient at Wayside for a number of years now but I’ve always been very nervous of going so I only ever go when I’m in pain or I have a problem 🫣
My recent visit was with Sheena who made me feel very calm and relaxed. Her work was very thorough and she explained everything along the way. Sheena is very professional and I will definitely be seeing her again on my next visit. I have no hesitation in recommending her to everyone especially those who are worried about visiting their dentist. Thank you Sheena x

I have recently had an implant, crown and a bridge fitted by Robin. I was impressed by the clarity of his explanations throughout the treatment. The end result was very pleasing and I would thoroughly recommend this dental practice.

I had my routine hygiene appointment this week with Rebecca. She was fantastic. She always does a thorough job and leaves my teeth feeling amazing. Highly recommend!
Dannielle Rawlinson 2 June 2023 (Google Review) -
I have been a patient at this practice for over 30 years. Recently Amit has had to undertake root canal surgery followed by a crown. A few years ago he installed an implant. Neither procedure is going to be fun, but he and his assistant made it as easy as it could be. In both cases a satisfactory outcome and a happy patient! The entire team, dentists, hygenists, and support staff is professional and friendly.
David Giachardi 15 May 2023 (Google Review) -
I had a root canal filling with Amit. I was a little anxious going in, but Amit explained everything he was going to do first then talked me through the steps as he did them. The whole thing was completely painless. The only discomfort was keeping my mouth wide open for 1 hour 25 mins. This is made easier by the big TV screen on ceiling. You get to watch back to back BBC TV shows while Amit drills away. If I need another root canal filling I’ll be back to Amit without hesitation
Ray Marshall 26 April 2023 (Google Review) -
I have just had root canal done with Amit at wayside and I can’t thank him enough for the service, and making it painless during the work and afterwards. I would highly recommend them.
Cecilia Fearn - 30th March 2023 (Google Review) -
My dental implant treatment with Dr Robin Horton- 4 for all of my top teeth and 2 for some of my lower teeth, was carried out efficiently and without any pain. It was the best investment I have ever made.
Mr Collins - January 2023 -
I initially approached the thought of implant surgery with some apprehension but after Robin Horton had explained in detail the dental work required, the techniques to be used and having rejected all forms of dentures in favour of as natural a solution as possible I decided to go ahead. The techniques included the use of three dimensional x-rays, lasers and various items of digital equipment to ensure the accurate positioning of the implants and construction of the implant bridge. The whole process took just over six months to complete with minimal discomfort over seven appointments of varying duration. Robin is a highly experienced and skilful implant surgeon and I felt relaxed and confident of a successful outcome throughout.
I now have a three tooth implant bridge with excellent bite and no discomfort which looks and feels no different to my natural teeth.
I have no hesitation in recommending Robin Horton unreservedly.

As someone who is terrified of the dentist, I was really apprehensive about my first hygienist appointment. I booked in with Wayside Dental Practice to see Yazmin and Sarah B, who both made me feel totally at ease and comfortable before beginning the appointment. They took the time to ask me questions, get to know me, and really help me relax. At times throughout the appointment when I was feeling a bit overwhelmed, they let me have multiple rests to ensure that I was okay. They both supported me throughout my first two sessions and I would not hesitate to return to them again.
Amy De Castillo - 12 July 2022 (Google Review) -
I was able to get a hygienist appointment at very short notice which was great. Yasmin was professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. She cleaned my teeth to the highest standard whilst providing a number of recommendations and options to ensure my teeth stay healthy in the future. Thank you Yasmin!
Jacky D - 22 June 2022 (Google Review) -
Really positive visit. Booked an emergency appointment on the day which I was really thankful for as had the weekend to wait if I couldn’t get in. Amazing service and a really friendly team. The dentist Dr Saneel Patel and his nurse were great and really reassuring. Highly recommended Wayside. Thank you.

Great care provided by Amit & Anita
Manish Thakrar - 16 January 2022 (Google Review) -
I had a filling chip and it was really important for me to retain as much original tooth structure as possible. Dr. Amit Maisuria did a fantastic job – he rebuilt the filling without needing to drill into any more of my natural tooth structure, he explained everything he was doing in easy to understand language, and I was able to relax knowing it was being handled well. Teeth problems always scare me a bit, and so I was really happy to go with a dental practice which, while perhaps a bit more expensive, does a much better job than usual. I plan to continue my dental care a this practice despite it being a 3 hour journey from my home.
Sarah Rugheimer - 2 December 2021 (Google Review) -
I visited Wayside Dental for the first time recently (June 2021) where I was treated by Amit Maisuria and one of the hygienists on separate occasions. The treatment from both of them was excellent. The hygienist cleaned and polished my teeth painlessly and surprisingly quickly given how long ago they were last done. Amit painlessly sorted three troublesome teeth in next to no time. It was a genuine pleasure seeing everyone. The advice I got was comprehensive and clearly explained without at any time being either patronising or condescending. I have no hesitation in recommending this dental practice to anyone.
Robin Haynes - 8 July 2021 (Google Review) -
I can’t thank Sheena Patel and her Dental Assistant, Amy, enough for their caring and skilful work which is of a remarkably high standard. Their approachable and professional manner was just what I needed to help me through a period of dental treatment. I would recommend anyone looking for a first class dental practice to consider Wayside first. It is brilliant.
Denise Hobbs - 26 April 2021 (Google Review) -
I cannot praise Amit enough for his professionalism and considered judgement. The treatment (extensive work on replacing old fillings) is always painless, and the service is always polite. I used to be a very nervous patient but I now go into appointments with confidence. Thank you!
Angela Brosnan - 23 April 2021 (Google Review) -
I highly recommend this clinic and in particular Yasmin and Veronica. I was a bit nervous but they made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. Highly professional and caring. My dental hygiene appointment was a pleasure.
Martina M - 1 April 2021 (Google Review) -
It was a big step forward for me to locate a new dentist following the retirement of my previous dentist of the last 20 years. I had treatment by the dentist who took over from my dentist but this was not a good experience and I did not feel I could return there. It actually took me about 5 years to gain the confidence to return to a dentist, I also knew that I was most likely facing some quite detailed and complex treatment (implants to replace four very loose upper front teeth that had consequently been non-functional in terms of being able to bite anything for five years). I completed some on line research and found the Wayside Practice and Robin Horton. I was impressed by the years of experience both Robin and the practice had in implant surgery and also that the procedures were completed using computer guided surgery, with the added advantage of everything being able to be completed in house including CBCT scans. From my initial enquiry and consultation to the completion of my treatment, Wayside Practice was extremely professional and caring. At my first appointment Robin very clearly explained the possible options (denture, bridge or implants) and what each would entail this was followed up with a very clear and detailed written treatment plans. I opted to go for implants and at all appointments Robin always ensured I understood what was to happen during the appointment which for me was very important. Having all the latest technology made the whole procedure very smooth from start to finish. The process was planned very meticulously even down to the time each appointment would last for so I knew exactly what to expect at each visit, which was very reassuring. I have been absolutely amazed by the skill and cutting edge technology employed for my procedures. I felt nothing more than very minor discomfort, and I had no swelling or bleeding after the surgery.The process was interrupted by COVID-19 but the practice responded extremely well, reorganising the appointments straight away so that the treatment could continue as soon as they were able to safely.Now having completed my course of treatment, I am absolutely delighted with the result. I have enjoyed biting into numerous foods for the first time in years. I no longer have to cut all my food up into bite size pieces I can eat fajitas and duck pancakes in the “normal” way. Meals are far more enjoyable now.I also have more confidence in smiling and laughing and I feel 10 years younger. My only regret is that I did not have this procedure done earlier it has literally changed my life.
I can confidently recommend Wayside Practice and Robin Horton unreservedly for their care, expertise and professionalism.
Janet VIckers -
I am delighted with the care I have received at Wayside and in particular with Sheena and her assistant, Amy. Sheena and Amy are warm, caring, approachable and professional and with them I feel entirely comfortable and at ease with any treatment. The standard of treatment is excellent and I am delighted with the results. I would recommend anyone looking for a first class dental practice to consider Wayside. It is brilliant!
DH - April 2021 -
My family and I regularly travel from south London to visit Wayside Dental and in particular Dr Amit Maisuria who has been my dentist for over 15 year (yes…I would even travel to Cambridge when Amit was practising there, as didn’t want to try another dentist).
Most recently I visited Dr Amit for emergency treatment of severe tooth ache / moving tooth. I’m a very nervous patient and don’t like needles. Amit explained exactly what was wrong with the tooth / gum, what treatment was needed and what he was doing each step of the treatment. He put me at ease despite my nervousness and low threshold for pain. He saved a tooth that otherwise might have been lost, advised me specifically what I needed to do to improve dental hygiene to prevent a repeat infection.
I would recommend Amit in a second for his knowledge of his vocation, genuine care for my dental wellbeing and total integrity of how he has dealt with me over the years
Kanchana Siva (Google Review) -
I have been a patient of Amit since he started at Wayside some years ago. He is all you could wish for in a dentist – kind, professional, thorough, and a very good communicator. He explains everything very clearly. I recently developed an abscess/infection at a weekend when away from home. I was most impressed and grateful for the cover by the on-call dentist, Mamta Gupta, and with the follow up by Amit. A root canal and crown were required, both expertly carried out at a time when Dentists have been under enormous pressures due to the Corona virus. I am very happy with the service provided by Wayside Dental Practice and have every confidence in Amit.
June Williams (Google Review) -
A very professional and friendly service at Wayside Dental Practice. I saw Becky for my Hygenist appointment – which was excellent. Becky takes the time to explain in detail what she is doing and the improvements you need to make to your brushing technique to ensure clean, healthy teeth. Then I saw Graham for a dentist check up, his friendly and calm approach made me feel at ease. Both appointments were on time which meant I didn’t have to wait around. Highly recommend.
Laura Izzard (Google Review) -
I cannot speak more highly of the experience we have had over recent months at Wayside – particularly with our wonderful dentist Robin Horton. My son has quite a complex dental issue but thanks to Robin, he now has a really lovely set of teeth. At all times Robin has been totally reassuring and the whole process has been so well managed. I would totally recommend this dental practice – wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Recently had three implants at Wayside – with Robin Horton. I was initially hesitant (do I have these done abroad (cheaper) or in the UK with an expert like Mr H). Decided not to risk going abroad; VERY happy with that decision and the outcome….highly recommended. I rate Robin Horton’s work very highly….delighted with the final results, and his professional & reassuring manner, and self-evident ability & experience.

I recently attended Wayside Dental Practice to have a veneer fitted to my front tooth. Amit was great – he put me at ease straight away. He explained everything to me about the procedure and then booked my 2 appointments.
Sue Simpkins (Google Review)
I was very impressed at my first appointment – the dental technician also turned up and spent a great deal of time matching the tooth colouring and shade.
Amit fitted the veneer on the second appointment. The procedure was pain free – and the result is first class. I am so pleased with it.
Thank you Amit. -
I cannot speak highly enough of the care I have received at Wayside Dental Practice. The approach is professional, friendly, high tech and holistic. Individual car plans are fulsome in their contact time and in their promotion of personal responsibility in dental hygiene. The cosmetic dentistry I have had is second to none both in appearance and comfort. Thank you, Robin, and your team.

Having a terrible phobia of dentists and not having visited one for approx 20 years I broke a tooth. From first contact through the treatment all of the staff made me feel as reassured as possible.

Max Robertson (Google Review) -
I have been a patient at Wayside Dental Practice for almost 40 years. During that time I have been totally satisfied with the treatment, advice and kindness I have received from the entire team. I have no hesitation in recommending this highly professional and caring practice.
Recently, after a front tooth split and became infected, it needed to be extracted. I was extremely anxious about outcome. Robin listened patiently to my fears, answered all my questions fully and put me at my ease. Having decided an implant was the best option the whole operation was planned meticulously so I knew exactly what to expect at each visit, which, in itself, was very reassuring. On the day of the extraction, I was absolutely amazed by the skill and cutting edge technology employed for the procedure. I felt nothing more than minor discomfort, indeed, it was virtually painless. Without doubt this is dentistry fit for the 21st century.
AC March 2021 -
It is always daunting when faced with a major decision about your health, particularly when a considerable sum of money is involved. From the initial consultation to the process itself, Wayside Practice was very professional and caring, making sure I understood what was to happen and guiding me through the decisions. Having all the latest technology made the procedures as smooth as they could be and the team, led by Robin Horton, were extremely good and reassuring at every point. The sinus lift was also daunting but the experience was better knowing that you had the best dental professionals you could.
The process was interrupted by COVID-19 but the practice responded extremely well, reorganising the appointments straight away so that the treatment could continue as soon as they were able to safely.
Now completed, I am delighted with work that I had done, have enjoyed my first steak in years and, more importantly, have more confidence in smiling and laughing.
I would recommend Wayside Practice unreservedly for their care, expertise and professionalism.

It is nice when you can express ones delight at a job well done. My two implants at Wayside Dental Practice was a job very well done. Mr Robin Horton briefed me at the start, and all procedures were carried out with well practised efficiency. I am glad to say it was completely painless as well.
Mr York January 2020 -
A highly recommended dental practice. Professionally run, well experienced and very friendly staff within a beautiful setting. Sheena was great with my 6 and 3 year old boys too, so much so they can’t wait to come back to get another sticker! Keep up the good work.
Tony Charalambides – November 2019 (Google Review) -
I just wanted to send an email to express my thanks to various members of the team.
Firstly I wish to thank the lovely person I spoke to on reception who got me an emergency appointment on the day due to the pain I was in.
Secondly I’d like to thank the lovely dental nurses who were so kind and gentle with me whilst having my x-ray and the nurse that was supporting my dentist during the consultation.
Finally I’d like to thank the dentist that saw me. He was so gentle and considerate whilst I was in so much pain and he really took the time to investigate the problem and ensure he got the right diagnosis. He also invited another dentist in for a 2nd opinion to ensure that it was the right diagnosis and the appropriate treatment plan was found. This saved me from unnecessary surgery and helped resolve the problem.
Everyone I saw was so kind and gave exceptional care. Thank you to everyone.
Ms C – October 2019 -
I have always been a complete coward at the dentist, following a painful, traumatic experience as a child, so I was dreading having a dental implant when one of my molars broke beyond repair. The extraction was painless and a far less unpleasant experience than I had feared, and the implant process was totally painless. I had no pain once the anaesthetic had worn off and no swelling or bleeding. In fact, I would never have known I had had surgery. My father has had several implants by conventional surgery and there is no comparison between his experience and mine, via laser surgery. He had stitches, swelling and bleeding and I had none.
KW – 2nd August 2019 -
I have been attending Wayside Dental Practice as a patient for over 20 years, and have always received the most professional of treatment, coupled with a warm association with the practitioner.

I would like to thank Mrs Mamta Gupta for the wonderful and transforming work she has done on my top teeth. I can now smile with confidence, knowing that my teeth look very good, whereas before they were mismatched. Family and friends all agree and have enthused over the big difference. Thank you so much Mrs Gupta.
Mrs Mari Carter, 7th April 2018 -
I have been a patient of Wayside DP for well over 40 years. This is the first time I wish to highlight my recent experience. I requested an emergency appointment to rectify a fractured tooth. Immediately I was offered an appointment the same day with Sheena Patel. My initial questions were answered clearly and professionally allowing me to be put at ease by Sheena. The whole experience was slick – and, amazingly, relaxing! Within an hour, my tooth was completely rebuilt without pain or anxiety. In my eyes, a miracle has been achieved. I am delighted with the end result. An impressive patient experience. I would highly recommend Sheena and her assistant. Thank you.
Nick Lintott, October 2017 -
I find that at all times my dentist, Sheena Patel, is very professional and pleasant and puts me at ease. I recently had my teeth whitened and Sheena explained every step of the procedure, which I was very satisfied with. She gives me very good advice on caring for my teeth and always answers any questions I have. All in all, I am very happy with my treatment at Wayside. Also the dental nurses are very pleasant and the receptionists are always very friendly.
Julie Stoker, October 2017 -
After an accident which resulted in four of my front teeth being broken off, I went to see Mr Horton in a pretty sorry state the next day. He sorted out the mess at once and started the high tech process of putting things right. I was soon able to smile again after several months of excellent treatment including the swift provision of a temporary plate until my implants were ready for my new teeth.
I can thoroughly recommend Mr Horton and his team who were all very kind and professional, explaining the procedures and painlessly taking me through the process to achieve an excellent result.
Mrs B – June 2017 -
I just wanted to let you know how impressed I have been by the care and support I received from Mr Campbell this week. I had to have a tooth extracted and during the inevitable pain and discomfort following treatment, Graham could not have been more supportive. I had great treatment from Duncan until he retired and now I can see that I can expect the same from Mr Campbell.
Mr T – March 2017 -
I am so happy with my treatment at Wayside. Mamta is so gentle and takes time to listen and understand. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Mrs J Fowler – March 2017 -
Needing to find a new dentist quickly, a friend recommended Wayside. It was a novelty to walk into a dental practice where the building did not feel overly clinical but more homely, and for the more nervous among us, this helps to relax the mind a little.
Having presented Mamta with what I considered to be a challenging problem, I was dealt with efficiently and effectively. Eager as I was to escape, I did however reflect how professional and prompt the whole service had been, with a considerable amount of skill demonstrated across a range of staff.
From my experience, I would certainly recommend Wayside Dental Practice and if they’ll have me, Ill continue to be a nervous patient but one who is confident in their hands.
E F – December 2016 -
After previously visiting Dr Turk with a severe phobia of the dentist, I was apprehensive when I heard he was leaving. However, Sheena was lovely and kept me calm throughout my appointment, even taking additional time to explain things and recommending best practice dental hygiene. Definitely recommend Sheena to anyone looking for a dentist.
Ms F – December 2016 -
The practice came highly recommended and I see why. As soon as I presented my problem, which was a snapped tooth below the gum line, I was given several options including the one I elected to have-an implant.
The treatment, care and service from Dr Sheena Patel and the rest of the team has been exemplary. The treatment took place over several months and the contact and care has been absolutely wonderful.
Alan Daniels – November 2016 -
Eileen is great. She is so gentle with the treatment. So friendly and puts you at ease. Very professional, it’s a pleasure to visit her every six months.
Mrs Christina Cosby – November 2016 -
Eileen is extremely professional, yet friendly too. She explained what she was doing at each stage of the treatment and was extremely gentle and thorough. It was a pleasurable experience-I never thought I’d say that about visiting the hygienist!

I cannot speak highly enough of the care I have received at Wayside Dental Practice. The approach was professional, friendly, high tech and holistic. The cosmetic dentistry I have received is second to none both in appearance and comfort. Thank you Robin and all of your team.

Thank you Mr Turk for your attention earlier today. I have remarked before that you have gentle hands and the same was true again: the extraction may have demanded firmness but it was always gentle firmness. Thank you once again.
Mr B 4/3/16 -
Over 20 years I have (and remain) very pleased with the service from Robin and the WDP team: friendly, professional, inspiring confidence and trust, and above all being flexible in meeting my occasionally urgent needs! The introduction of laser surgery for my new implant is a great example of how the practice in continually investing in patient care.

Mrs L -
Wayside Dental Practice is very caring, efficient and friendly, with excellent staff both administrative and professional. My dentist is Dr Mamta Gupta, an excellent dentist who is quite an artist in cosmetic dentistry. Indeed, I am so impressed with her that I travel many miles to see her and have followed her to Wayside from her previous practice. She is also especially good with nervous patients.
Beverly Robertson -
A modern, approachable and professional service from skilled practitioners who make every treatment and visit less stressful and more comfortable than I have known with previous dentists. Everything is clearly explained and I feel I am in caring hands.The practice is very welcoming and responds immediately if I have a reason to worry or visit between regular check ups and sessions with the hygienist. I can certainly recommend Robin Horton and his team very highly.
Mrs H -
Wayside is a very high quality dental practice. I have received excellent advice and highly skilled treatment from Mrs Gupta. From childhood right through to adulthood I was always frightened of going to the dentist. This is no longer the case.
Mr P Heignway -
I have been registered with Wayside for well over 40 years and would like to thank you for the attention I have received over this time, particularly in recent years from Mrs Gupta and Mr Turk who have provided excellent care.
Mr T -
This note is to tell you [Carlos] how much I appreciated your kindness and competence in seeing me and to let you know that your treatment (to save my tooth) was successful and to say thank you for all you did for me.
Mrs G -
Nervously, I pushed open the door and approached the Wayside reception desk. However, I need not have worried for, on meeting Amit Maisuria for the first time, I knew he cared about dentistry and would give me excellent, professional service. Mr Maisuria is thorough with fine communication skills, patiently explaining what work is required and keeping the patient informed of progress. He is ably assisted by Leanne who is reassuring, caring and kind. I left the surgery, thankful for such a competent team.

I would like to thank you Amit for the dental care you have given me recently. I have been really impressed and reassured by your confident, friendly and thorough manner. You removed 2 of my wisdom teeth with considerable skill-a procedure which I had been apprehensive about. I was also delighted with the recent root canal you performed which has left me pain-free for the first time in some time!
Elizabeth Carr -
Robin is a fantastic dentist. He was very helpful when I had concerns about any part of my treatment. The end result is that I can now smile without feeling like people are looking at my teeth. Robin and his staff have given me more confidence and I cannot thank them enough. I shall always recommend Wayside Dental Practice.
Scott Johnson -
I have found Amit to be an expert, efficient and caring dentist. Together with his assistant Leanne, they make an excellent team, highly recommended.
J Fraser -
At the beginning of last year I arrived at Wayside and met Amit who is extremely courteous and meticulous. Amit examined my mouth thoroughly and suggested a treatment plan that I have now completed and am extremely happy with. May I take this opportunity to thank Amit and his assistant Leanne for their outstanding professionalism throughout my treatment and to thoroughly recommend him to anyone considering similar treatment.
F S Smith -
Thank you so much to Mr Turk for the care and attention that you gave me yesterday and that is not to forget the skill that went with it. I have no memory of a previous tooth extraction with so little post operative after effects. Thanks again so much.
Mr V Manton -
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Emily and Sophie who made a very difficult visit a complete success. You were both amazingly patient with my 7 year old who was scared and off the scale anxious about having his teeth cleaned. It wasn’t all plain sailing but you persevered and he is now extremely proud of his sparkly clean teeth. Thank you.
Mrs W -
I have just completed the treatment for two implants to replace my missing upper first left and lower first right molars. I received excellent treatment and care throughout my time with Amit.
Mrs S Simpson -
Amit is a welcome member of Wayside Dental Practice. I have twice had a dental emergency and each time Amit has made time for me to be treated, in order to fulfil social appointments without embarrassing ‘gaps’. He is courteous, professional and highly skilled with Leanne working quietly and efficiently in the background. I am grateful to them.
Christine Horden -
I would like to thank everyone from your receptionists who booked me in, to your staff who offered words of comfort following my initial visit and of course to Carlos and his assistant for their patience, pain free experience and injection of humour.
Amanda Palmer -
Thank you so much Amit, to you and and your lovely nurse, for your kindness yesterday. I was frightened but had no reason to be as you were so kind
Pat Coxell -
I recently had an implant bridge fitted and am really pleased with the result. Much care and attention was taken in the design and fitting to make the teeth comfortable and natural looking. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Amit Maisuria.

I have been attending Wayside Dental Practice for a number of years now for my dental care under the expert care of Mamta Gupta. She makes attending dental check ups a much more enjoyable experience as her warm and friendly nature always puts me at ease. Her ongoing professionalism and skills make visits to the dentist much more bearable. Thank you Mamta and Nadine.
April Blindell -
I now have a fully functioning tooth! Thank you so much Carlos. I can’t believe that after all these years I can eat again on that side!
