What Our Patients Say About Us
“I had an accident many years ago (pre ACC ) The resulting dental work was less than satisfactory and left me very unhappy with my teeth and appearance for most of my life. I saw Andrew Newsom about getting cosmetic work done and went through the process last year. I am so thrilled with the results and have a new lease on life. I love my new teeth! They are worth every cent. My husband was so impressed with my results, he is now getting his teeth done with Andrew too. The staff are very efficient and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Andrew and Team.”
Michelle Leggett
“I want to pass on my immense thanks, especially to Andrew, for having Dad’s teeth ready in time for what turned out to be his last Christmas. It meant a huge amount to us all and the family are eternally grateful to you for all the difference you made to his last few months. I fully realise the lengths you all went to ensure Dad had his Christmas steak – especially finishing his dentures so close to Christmas and with a lot going on in periphery. We could never thank you all enough for the respect you showed Dad and the dedication to getting the job done.”
David Wilson
“Andrew was always available to answer questions around my nervousness of the process as I wanted immediate dentures. His service was professional and thorough with minimal visits after the initial fitting. Many people have told me how natural my teeth look, even though they are dentures. My friends have remarked positively about my new smile.
I’m happy to recommend Andrew if you need a specialist dentist.”
