WANTED: Child-friendly dentist recommendations in ED

[New2London]

Hello,

Recently relocated to the UK and looking for an exceptionally good, child-friendly dentist in East Dulwich for my 7-year old's first visit to a dentist.

Philip Norton Dental Practice, Denmark Hill (where it turns into Herne Hill). I'm completely terrified of going to the dentist and hence, had put it off for a looong time. He was recommended on the forum to me and he was absolutely brilliant. I'm taking my 3 yr old there in November for her first checkup as I'm confident I now won't be shaking and can set a good example to her - completely puts you at east.

(And they are all LOVELY there - the receptionist looked after my baby when I was in the chair!)

Thanks so much for your helpful recommendation.

We love Bunmi at East Dulwich Dental Care in Forest Hill. She's so patient and lovely - and doesn't hurt! It's NHS and easy to get an appointment. My two year old's been and it was fine

Thanks so much for your helpful response.

I'm on Philip Norton's books as an NHS patient by the way.

My 3 year old's first visit to the dentist was to Bunmi - she was lovely and he did everything she asked (quite a feat!). After that, I also went to Bunmi for my teeth :)

These are very helpful suggestions -- but does anyone have a recommendation in East Dulwich proper?

Can i just say thank you for the recommendations too. I booked my 1 year old to see Bunmi today and she was brilliant. Very gentle :)
