Six Gables Dental Practice Ltd

Whilst I never had a problem with dental treatment, a few years ago I developed a real phobia of the dentist. I have to say that if, like me, you have bad anxiety then Dr Sam Aboalkaz is so good. His manner is so calm and reassuring. I will be utterly honest - I didn’t even feel the numbing injection this time. He regularly checked I was ok during the procedure (which took over an hour) & told me what he was doing. Visiting the dentist will never be my favourite thing to do but Dr Aboalkaz made it so much more bearable - thank you!

This dentist practice has been my families dentists for a few years and they are always superb in their approach and treatment. A big shout out goes to Dr Rhys Thomas and all the Hygienists who have saved my teeth with their superb actions and advice over the years.

I recently had my first dental appointment at the clinic, due to some pain in my teeth when brushing and flossing. I was really anxious, as I've always been scared to go to the dentist due to previous bad experiences and also because I'm autistic and the dentist usually leads to severe sensory overload. Sam Aboalkaz is great, he made me feel calm whilst he inspected my teeth and explained what was going on with my teeth in a way I could understand and answered all my questions. He was really approachable and honest and he minimised any instances that could have lead to sensory overwhelm. I highly recommend Sam as a dentist, he has great attention to detail , is a really honest person and he really cares about his patients and their comfort.

Before coming to Six Gables I suffered from extreme anxiety and distress when attending dental appointments. Since meeting Andrew Gardner, he has transformed the experience into an enjoyable and fun one. I was a patient of Andrew's for 15 years until I moved to London and had to transfer to a local practice. My experience at that practice was terrible, with them forcing expensive and unnecessary treatments on me and I now travel back to Cardiff for my dental treatment as no one compares to Andrew! Andrew prioritises patient care over everything and works hard to see me at very short notice.

Got assigned here for an emergency appointment, and left in more pain and embarrassment then I came in with. The dentist was horrible and spoke to me in such a huff as if I was an inconvenience to his day (not my fault they accept emergency appointments), he looked at me for a grand total of 5 minutes and made me feel horrible about my issues and the fact my regular dentist was overbooked. He put in a quick filling that was like chalk and is so obviously discoloured to the rest of my teeth that I actually now feel embarrassed to even open my mouth. It seems unless you are a customer paying £200+ you won’t be treated with any shred of dignity here. I suffer with a a lot of anxiety and going to the dentists is always nerve wracking for me and I think this experience has genuinely worsened that. Would NOT recommend.

After experiencing raging toothache, the lovely staff at Six Gables Practice managed to offer me an emergency appointment the same day I rang. I had an issue with one of my wisdom teeth which needed extracting. The dentist and practice nurse really looked after me, the procedure was explained very clearly and executed very efficiently. I am so pleased it was resolved so quickly by very efficient, friendly, staff.

After I received an emergency appointment for an issue with my wisdom tooth that was causing me tremendous pain , I have had it removed here and I must say it didn't hurt at all, the procedure was explained to me very clearly and medication for the post-op procedure offered, the actual extraction lasted for what seemed seconds with no discomfort at all. I walked in crying and left smiling honestly extremely professional and kind dentists and nurses and the receptionists lovely, would highly recommend this dental practice and I wish all places were like this 👏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
