The Problem

This patient wasn’t happy about the appearance of her crown and protruding teeth. She also didn’t like the unevenness and the asymmetry of her gum levels.

The Solution

A gum lift was required to create symmetrical gum levels. Porcelain veneers were then used to shorten the two front teeth and align the crowding.

The Interview

What motivated you to change your smile?

I felt very self-conscious about my appearance.

How did you feel during the process?

Everybody was very kind and professional, and it didn’t hurt.

How do you feel about the result?

It’s amazing!

Is it something you would recommend to family and friends?

Definitely.

How has your new smile changed your life?

I feel a lot more confident in myself.

Sum up your experience in one word

Fantastic!

What patients say

Still Exceptional After 25 YearsI had my veneers done at The London Smile Clinic nearly 25 years ago by Dr Tim Bradstock-Smith, and I’m now back having them replaced - with the same dentist! That alone speaks volumes about the level of trust and satisfaction I’ve had over the years.What continues to impress me abot LSC is their investment in cutting-edge technology. The diagnostics they use now provide such a detailed view of your dental health, allowing for a treatment plan that’s not just about looks, but about long-term wellbeing. It’s thoughtful, precise and truly patient-centred care.The professionalism and excellence of the entire team is just as strong as it was all those years ago. There’s a genuine culture of kindness - right down to my original Dental Care Manager, Dawn! Everyone is welcoming and clearly proud to be part of a clinic that sets the bar for dental care.If you’re looking for world-class dentistry backed by years of consistency, innovation, and trust, I can’t recommend The London Smile Clinic highly enough.read more

Always utter professionalism from the staff at the London Smile Clinic. I've just completed a "full mouth restoration" - placing high quality porcelain veneers and crowns over badly worn-down teeth. Dr Bradstock-Smith ensured that underlying general dental issues had been addressed before using his expertise to fashion a great set of natural-looking teeth for a new smile. Attend the London Smile Clinic and you won't want to visit another dental practice again!read more

I cannot recommend Bonnie highly enough as a dental hygienist. I have been very anxious going to hygienists in the past and have had negative experiences. Bonnie put me at my ease, was kind and professional and I had a really positive and thorough assessment and treatment. Thank you!read more

I have been seeing hygienist Kristelle for several years and have total confidence in her. I have some sensitivity issues, but Kristelle manages to make her treatments totally comfortable. She is always thorough and meticulous in her care and advice and I prefer to make the journey into central London to see her, rather than see a hygienist locally.read more

Just had my annual hygenist and dental examination at London Smile. Always a good experience, and I love the new, comfortable, 360 degree x-ray machine. As always, I remain impressed by their attention to detail, clinical acumen, and sensible approach. I had all my teeth veneered, crowned and bridged here over 20 years ago, and the vast majority of those teeth are still going strong. I wouldn't go anywhere else.read more

I am so happy to have found Dr. Tim Bradstock-Smith. He is calm and confident, I immediately felt like I was in good hands. I had veneers done on my upper teeth, and the whole process was completely stress-free. After a poor experience at another clinic, I was extremely nervous—but Dr. Bradstock-Smith listened to every concern and was very attentive. A big thank you to the whole team at this clinic.read more

I have been going here for many years and will always return and recommend the Smile Clinic. From the welcoming treatment coordinator’s to the friendly dental nurses and the specialists. They are an outstanding team.Dr. Pratik Sharma is an exceptional orthodontist who is a genius in working out how to achieve the best smile. I have been fortunate enough to have Anna Blazewska monitoring and executing my adjustments throughout my treatment. I have been in the best hands possible and their combined efforts have finally given me the smile I have wished for.The best part is that the appointments don’t feel like a chore as it’s a pleasure to see the team.I am very grateful to all at the Smile Clinic.read more

This team is amazing and completely saved the day. Kind, helpful, supremely professional and clearly at the top of their game. I knocked out my perfect bridge six days before Christmas and they went out of their way to sort it out in one day, working overtime. Not only did Tim save the day, but they saved my Christmas!I’d already been asked many times who made my bridge 10 years ago - not that you’d have noticed, it was perfect. I don’t know why anyone would go anywhere else.Thank you all againAineread more

Sonia is genuinely, hands down, the best dentist I've seen. Plus, the Clinic has some tremendous gadgets there. Which, as they were 22 years ago when I first visited, keeps them ahead of any other dentistry practice ive come across. They do dentistry really well and make it as pleasant an experience as possible.They fixed my smile 22 years ago with veneers, and the first one only came off recently. All the more impressive as I am rather careless with my teeth at times and I am a tooth grinder when I sleep.Cant fault them - even if they are not exactly cheap - but well worth it, So 5 stars from me.read more

I had a fantastic experience at my routine check-up with Dr. Sonia! From the moment I walked in, she made me feel at ease with her bubbly and friendly personality. She was incredibly thorough, taking the time to explain each step of the process and ensuring I understood everything. Her attention to detail and comprehensive approach to my dental health really stood out. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her patients. I highly recommend Dr. Sonia to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and caring dentist. I’ll definitely be returning for future check-ups!The practice was great too! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. The practice itself is very modern, clean, and sleek, with a calming atmosphere.read more

Dr Sharma and his team provided our teenage children with exceptional orthodontic care. He is among the best practitioners we have had the pleasure to work with and his impeccable professionalism and attention to detail produced beautiful results for our children. He was also incredibly kind and sensitive to their needs, making every effort to make them comfortable and secure. We always looked forward to the visits. Dr Zhang, Anna and Sadia carried forth his high standards and provided exceptional care to our family. We recommend the practice wholeheartedly.read more

Having had a deeply unpleasant root canal experience previously, I took the advice of a friend and today went to see Mariana at London Smile. What a difference! Mariana was kind, thoughtful and articulate and is clearly at the very top of her game. She pays great attention to every tiny detail and made sure to explain each and every stage to me as we went along as well as ensuring that I was comfortable and pain free at all times during what is an incredibly complex and skilled procedure. It was probably a third more in terms of cost than the place my dentist referred me to, but was worth every penny and made me realise how basic the last experience I had was. A small but nice touch from London Smile that didn’t go unnoticed was that no extra was added onto my bill for the antibiotics prescribed. I hope I don’t need more RC treatment but if I do I wouldn’t go anywhere else.read more

I had my smile makeover in 2006, and its now 2024, and I am still absolutely thrilled with the work that Dr Tim Bradstock Smith did for me. My gums were in a mess, always bleeding, I had trigeminal nerve pain on both sides of my jaw. He transformed my life with his work, & my confidence, he took all the problems away. I never stopped smiling. Love my teeth now. I have recently been back for a hygenist visit is the best one I've ever had. I took my husband this time for a consultation, I figured mine have lasted 18 years and are showing no decline, so I'd rather him go to Tim too. They have an offer on a free consultation, and £100 off your own bill, which they honoured with a smile. Lovely friendly reception staff. I highly recommend speaking to them, special thanks to Tim & Dawn & the team & our lovely hygenists. xread more

Orthodontic treatment, whitening and bonding.My journey started a little over a year ago. At the age of 55 i had given up hope of ever having a smile to be proud of. On arriving i was greeted with friendly smiling faces from the lovely girls at reception, instantly putting me at ease, shown to a relaxing bright waiting room. Long story short, after the magical treatment from all the team Dr Sharma, Anna, Bonnie and Michelle i now have the most amazing smile. I can never thank you enough for what you have given me, after 15 years my partner now has a man who can smile at her and with her xGo on give yourself a smile!read more

Yes, heading to the dentist can sometimes cause anxiety, but you’ll be in the skilled hands of Dr. Tim Bradstock-Smith at The London Smile Clinic.

Special thanks to Dawn for coordinating everything and for always accommodating the appointments I needed. I am over the moon with my smile makeover and cannot recommend London Smile enough.read more

Amazing experience! I had four veneers added, which doesn't sound much but the difference to my smile is incredible - which is now perfect. (He said humbly :.) My dentist, Dr. Michelle Sayour - able assisted by ace nurse Sadia - was incredible. Not only is she very highly skilled, as you'd expect of the Clinic, but I was also impressed by how much effort she puts in behind the scenes - liaising with the Canadian manufacturers of the veneers, for example - to ensure that the fit, shape, colour and finish was just perfect. Michelle's people skills are excellent, she is enormously likable and the whole process was actually very enjoyable. Who'd have thought going to the dentist could be such fun?! Highly recommend.read more

Been going here for years after they fixed a missing tooth&replaced old fillings. Appreciate they focus on enhancing the natural beauty of teeth rather than forcing a Hollywood smile (unless that is what you want I suppose). Ongoing maintenance has been sympathetically done and only as required. People remember your name and your mouth (or maybe their record keeping is just very good). Tried to switch to NHS and this was so not the case I felt too uneasy to let them potentially 'ruin' work done. (As I kept getting different dentists in the same practice on NHS- it also got a bit tiring having them examine my mouth with admiration as an example of how things should be done, and somehow what was previously recorded did not seem to be remembered. One hopes this should always be the case.)read more

I had extensive cosmetic dental work done at The London Smile Clinic in +-2010. The work is as perfect now as it was back then. I have always felt to be in reliable hands.Having moved out of London it's well worth the effort to come up to town for my annual dentist check up with Tim and regular hygienist visits with Bonnie; they keep my London Smile on track. A perfect service from reliable, friendly professionals. The best. The investment was totally worth it.= Thank you Tim, Bonnie and the entire The London Smile team :)read more

I am very pleased with the treatment I received from Dr . Tim Bradstock-Smith. My treatment was well managed and without any stress, anxiety or discomfort. I was initially concerned about the duration of my treatment but found it actually went very quickly and was certainly worth both the time and money invested. I feel so much more confident to talk to people now and smile with my full top of veneers! Everyone at The London Smile Clinic are so amazing especially the ladies at reception as they always make you feel so welcome and very special. I would always recommend to come here as they are all top quality in their profession.read more

I can’t believe it’s 23 years since Tim did my veneers. I must have been an early adopter! I’ve never had a single problem or regretted the investment for one moment. Living in Scotland it’s not always easy to have your dentist in London but it’s worth the effort. London Smile look after all my regular dental needs and Bonnie is an excellent hygienist. ….after one of her regular clean ups I feel like a new man!read more

Before treatment at London Smile Clinic I was exceptionally nervous and afraid of dental visits. No surprise then that my teeth were in terrible shape and I was in danger of losing them. I'd lost confidence in my former dentist and looked on Care Quality reviews for a new practice, and London Smile Clinic stood out as exceptional. The whole team at the Smile Clinic are wonderful, welcoming, calming and reassuring. I'm quite sure it's no exaggeration to say with the help of Dr Sharma, and Bonnie the magical hygienist, I've managed to save my teeth!! And I am no longer afraid of dentists. I can't recommend them enough. Gold stars to the whole team!!read more

I highly recommend the London Smile Clinic- all of the people that I saw were extremely professional, highly skilled and kind. I had a full set of veneers fitted to replace my very worn down yellow teeth with Dr Tim Bradstock-Smith. It has completely changed my life and given me so confidence. I get sooo many compliments and no one knows they’re veneers- everyone thinks I’ve just had my teeth whitened as they’re so natural. I’ve never smiled so much before and love having my picture taken now!read more
