Chris and the team @ Gentle Dental always put the patient fist. So efficient, so kind and really caring. They are without doubt the best dental practice I have experienced. The practice is very modern and the whole team are very kind.

I recently moved from another dentist in St Andrews to Gentle Dental Care, and I am so glad I did. Gental Dental Care are professional, sincere, dedicated, and humble, and provides an incredible service. Dr Ching is a superstar - genuine, a people person, professional and dedicated to providing the best treatment plan appropriate to your needs. A special mention also goes to Lisa at reception, who is polite, full of smiles, and professional in her approach to dealing with potential and new patients (the waiting list was so worth it!). Thank you, Gentle Dental Care team.

This is a brilliant dental practice. It's hard to imagine that I would ever think I may enjoy visiting the dentist but here I do. All the staff are excellent.The atmosphere is relaxed and everyone friendly and most professional. A big shout out to Amanda, my dentist and Nicola the hygienist. However all the other staff are fab too. I highly recommend Gentle Dental Care in St Andrews.

Gentle Dental is top of the pops! Located conveniently in the centre of St Andrews in a beautiful building with calm, soothing vibes throughout the surgery. The staff are welcoming and friendly, professional and thorough. I look forward to my hygienist appointments with Nicola every quarter; she is the BEST ad she attends to every little detail and I leave feeling a billion dollars. Hooray for a top team🙏👏🏻

Dr.Amanda Campbell (no relation) is a brilliant dentist - gentle, caring and very considerate towards nervous patients like myself. I once had a very painful, broken tooth and she extracted it before I was even aware that it was gone! On another time, she quickly dealt with a broken tooth/filling that was causing me considerable pain & inconvenience. This is the easily the best dental practice that I have ever belonged to and I cannot speak highly enough of them.

I've had experience with many dentistries around the globe, and Gentle Dental Care is truly a hidden gem. My relations with the GDC team began over 7 years ago. Since then I don't look any other way. It's impossible to recall a single thing to complain about. This practice is of the highest standard and should be a reference for how things should be done. To keep up with the company's name and carry the standard through time you need a team of professionals and skilled leadership. So my great respect to Chris, the real Gentleman behind the team who holds it in such an excellent state. I remember most of the team members I met during appointments. None of them disappointed me in any way, they were proficient, kind and friendly. Some team members eventually had to leave, but Alice and Laura - you're not forgotten :) Also, I can't help but mention Amanda and Lauren, who led most of the recent appointments and helped assemble tiny parts of me back together. Love from me ;) It's great luck and a privilege to be a patient of the GDC team. P.S. And now I have bittersweet regrets about sharing this information with others as I like to keep the best only for my closest circle... But after another visit with the team and all their gentleness, I've reached a critical state and had an uncontrollable burst of kindness that led me to share this piece with the world.

Chris Pritchard is exceptionally skilled and I've always been impressed with the treatment I've received. Whether in emergency or routine, my teeth have been well looked after here. My father was a dental surgeon so as you can imagine my standards are quite high... If you need a dentist - just come here, its the best place.

What an exceptional dentist I have!! Amanda Campbell is so caring, polite and professional in her line of work. I am extremely nervous about the dentist but Amanda makes me feel at ease and the whole experience from start to finish is just exceptional!! Lauren is excellent too and both together make me feel very relaxed and comfortable. Amanda and Lauren are 2 very valuable members of this team. Highly recommend!

I was on holiday in Saint Andrews and my tooth broke - a big chunk came out! I was pretty nervous but the staff at Gentle Dental and Dr. Chris Pritchard made me feel at ease. Everyone was so nice, I think it was possibly the most relaxed I’ve ever been during a visit to the dentist. The filling Dr. Pritchard sculpted for me was a temporary filling, he said it should get me through the week at the very least, but might hold up and work as a permanent filling, but he told me my dentist would probably want to replace it with something else. When I saw my dentist back home, at first he couldn’t even see which tooth had been broken! He really could not find it, and I mean with the little angled mirror and a little flashlight tool…finally I had to point to it. After two X-rays and some poking at it, my dentist determined that it was well done and would work perfectly fine; he saw no need to replace it. He seemed like he might have been a little bit jealous; at one point he asked me how flossing was going and I swear he seemed hopeful I would say it was a problem. But I explained that Dr. Pritchard had used dental floss on both sides of the tooth before the filling had finished setting to make sure I could floss around it. Truly it was a job well done. So thank you to Gentle Dental for solving my problem so skillfully and being so nice about it. [UPDATE: the "temporary" filling lasted me a year!]

Dear Valerie
I'm delighted to hear that all is well with you and your tooth- what a lovely surprise to see your fantastic review on a cold March afternoon in St Andrews! Take care of yourself, and hopefully you won't need our services when you next visit St Andrews! :)

Just a wee note to say I’m so happy I found Gentle Dental Care, being an anxious patient it was important to me to feel safe and secure with a dentist. I don’t have to look any further, Dr Amanda Campbell and her dental nurse, Lauren have gone above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and welcome. The treatment I’ve received is first class and Amanda, with her expertise, is very good at explaining what she’s doing to put me at ease. I no longer dread my visits to the dentist, such gentle, caring ladies who I would highly recommend. Pity I can only give five stars.

Let's face it, most of us don't actually WANT to see a dentist or hygienist but Chris and his team at Gentle Dental make the experience as pleasant as possible. The practice is clean and well-equipped but manages to avoid feeling overly clinical and procedures are clearly explained. Everyone is friendly and professional, as you might expect, but there is also a genuine sense of caring and I particularly appreciate the patience and kindness shown towards my late father.

I can 100% recommend Gentle Dental to anyone who is looking for a Dental practice where the very highest standards of patient safety and care are maintained from start to finish of your treatment. It has taken me years to overcome my fear of visiting the Dentist, this was due to bad Dental expieriences way back during my schooldays. Only now since being a patient with Gentle Dental can I now say with complete confidence that my fear of Dentistry has gone, and this is due entirely to all the staff at Gentle Dental and the exceptional skill and care from Chris my dentist and his team.

Been with Gentle Denral Care in St Andrews for over a year. Twice needed emergency treatment. The reception team, hygienists and Dr Amanda Campbell have been wonderful. They found time to fit me in when I really needed it and could not have looked after me better. They set the standards for other dental practices to aspire to.
