Fabulous first visit to the Harley Street Dental Studio today. All communication before my visit was great and I felt welcome on arrival. My appointment with Ryan was brilliant, he was very thorough and listened carefully. At no point did I feel rushed and was able to ask every question I wanted to. I then spent some time with Naz who has given me every option with really clear breakdowns. I felt under no pressure at any point. Would highly recommend.

I wouldn’t go anywhere else! I had an extraction with Dr Paul Wilson and he the absolute best.I moved to London from the US a year ago and didn’t think anything of a tooth that started to become increasingly more painful, until one day I could no longer bear the pain. I got in to an emergency appointment and Dr Wilson was great.My glands were swollen and my tooth needed to be extracted, He put me on antibiotics and explained every step of the way what I will expect with this tooth and he was spot on. The day of the extraction I was terrified but again Dr Wilson was very calming and explained Everything. He pulled the tooth out and It was not painful at all! A bit of pressure but that was it. I am feeling 100% better now that the infected tooth is gone. Dr Paul Wilson also gives you options and does not push you into getting extra work done. He is amazing! I also have to say all of the staff at Harley street dental Studio are very nice and attentive. Thanks again everyone at Harley street dental studio!

I am absolutely amazed by the work that Dr Shad Jaff has done in such a short amount of time. I showed up at the clinic’s door steps without an appointment, after having 16 composite bonds done elsewhere one hour prior to that, and not being at all happy with the result and quite desperate because the other clinic would not finish the procedure to match what I had asked and hoped for. I was nervous and in need of a skilled, understanding and willing doctor. Dr Shad has proven to be that and so much more. He has taken the time to listen and understand exactly what I wanted and what I would be comfortable with. On such short notice, he has booked me in for the following day during his lunch break as the rest of his day was already booked. I came back for the appointment and was greeted in a very pleasant and reassuring way and after an hour and 45 minutes of pure brilliance and craftsmanship, he has managed to restore my confidence and give me the result and look I envisioned. He has shown a lot of kindness, patience and most importantly talent. I left the clinic knowing that although I live in Canterbury, Kent (miles away from London), I will always go back to Dr Shad for any other procedures. Not only a brilliant dentist but also a great guy. Thank you so much for everything, Jonathan.

Harley street offers an excellent and professional service. I’ve been fortunate to have been given Dr Aneka and she has been exceptional throughout my treatment. I had originally went several places beforehand but did not gain the professionalism, confidence and warmth that Dr Aneka offered. I feel that the service here is second to none and highly recommend Harley street dental studio to anyone that inquires about dental treatments.

Excellent service. Saw Katharine for a hygienist appointment. She was exceptional, informative and caring. My teeth looked outstanding after treatment. First time I have been to Harley street dental studio and I was very pleased. Will definitely go back for my follow up in 3 months.
Early orthodontics
Addressing orthodontic problems early is essential. Ignoring them or waiting until it’s too late could lead to small problems developing into serious issues and pave the way for prolonged and expensive treatment later on.
You’ll find our team sensitive to the growing pains of children and young adults, and ready with a range of safe, fast and discreet straightening options that won’t cause embarrassment in the common room or playground.
You’ll also discover straightening and orthodontic options for children and teens that you aren’t available at NHS centres.
We suggest an initial orthodontic assessment around 12 months after the adult teeth have fully erupted. Our childrens dentist will be able to advise you on the best time to see an orthodontist and we have a team of brace specialists ready to help.
At Harley Street Dental Studio we offer a range of braces including discreet and invisible options. Having orthodontic treatment doesn’t have to mean fixed metal braces, invisible braces such as those hidden behind the teeth or clear removable aligners can be great for children and adults alike who are concerned about how braces may look.

Starting Early
Early-years visits don’t just give your child the best possible chance of staying in good health, they’re also vital in helping children to get used to the sights and sounds of the dentist.
We recommend making an appointment for your child when aged around 12 months or within six months of their first teeth erupting.
Our child-friendly team will ensure your children are in safe hands as they grow.

Babies and toddlers
As soon as your baby’s teeth begin to emerge it is important to start paying attention to their oral hygiene and habits. This means brushing their teeth twice a day using fluoride toothpaste and paying attention to their diet and sugar intake.
We all know that sugar is bad for our teeth, but did you know it is the frequency it is consumed rather than the overall amount that does the damage? For example, it would be worse for your child’s teeth to eat one sweet every hour throughout the day than to eat a whole pack of sweets in one go. The best time for a child to eat sweet foods is at the end of a meal.
Don’t forget there is sugar in other things too like fruit juice and squash. It is really important to look after the health of milk teeth as they are essential not only for eating but for speech development, facial appearance and saving space for the adult teeth to grow into.
At this young age your child does not need regular check-ups but it can be beneficial to bring them along to the dentist with you and get them used to the experience. Try to ensure that you are calm and happy during your appointments so that young children do not pick up on anxiety associated with visiting the dentist.

Age five to six
At around the age of 5 or 6 your child’s first permanent teeth will start to emerge. These adult molars do not replace any baby teeth but grow in behind them, many people therefore do not realise that they are permanent teeth and so do not look after them properly. This is the age that you should start bringing your child to the dentist for regular check-ups.
We can also offer services like fissure sealants on the back teeth which can help to protect them from decay. The sealants work by filling in the small ‘fissures’ or gaps on the biting surface of the teeth, this means that food cannot be trapped in these spaces and the teeth are easier to clean. Fissure sealants are simply brushed on to the surface of the tooth and so are quick and pain free.We can also offer services like fissure sealants on the back teeth which can help to protect them from decay.

Age seven to nine
Once the baby teeth begin to be lost and replaced by adult teeth, this is the time to start assessing your child for potential orthodontic (brace) treatment. At about this age we can start to see the position of the adult teeth and monitor the growth of the jaw for potential problems.
Not everyone will need to have their teeth straightened with braces, but if your child does then we have a team of orthodontists and dentists who can provide a range of options to help. In some cases, early orthodontics can help to avoid lengthy brace treatment later in life or even prevent the need for facial surgery

Teenagers
When your children become more independent and are brushing their teeth without supervision, we can ensure that they have a good tooth brushing technique and are reaching all the areas of their mouth. Regular hygiene appointments give us the opportunity to give your teenagers teeth a thorough clean and provide tips on good oral hygiene.
