Dental Treatments
Quality private dental care.
★★★★★
I cannot recommend Alice at The Neem Tree highly enough as a dental hygienist. She is professional, and friendly and made me feel at ease during my appointment. I was very impressed with the thorough treatment plan she created for me and appreciated the clear advice she gave me on how to clean my teeth effectively while trying to save my receding gums! The Neem Tree is a lovely dental practice with committed, experienced and friendly staff. Thank you for looking after me!
