Nervous patients

Whatever your negative dental experiences, with our help you can leave your fears where they belong: in the past. With refined care and expertise we’ve been helping patients throughout Ferndown manage their fear of the dentist for many years - we can do it for you too.

It’s important that you look after your oral health. Your lifestyle, psychological well-being and dental health depend on it. If you continue to avoid the dentist, this can lead to severe, perhaps irreversible, damage.

So, take the first step. Work with us. Tell us everything. In detail. We understand the panic. The sweaty palms. The rumbling tum. The unsteady legs. The tears. We also know how to ease these symptoms. As your confidence grows, they will disappear for good.

No pressure—you are in control

What does and doesn’t happen is up to you. You do not have to do anything out of your comfort zone.

Why not start with driving by Envisage Dental Ferndown. You don’t have to do any more than this for starters. We have a beautiful practice with a calm, friendly, family vibe, which you will discover if you come in and say hello. Why not bring a friend or a family member?

We are happy to chat

This is your chance to tell us why the dentist gives you the heebie-jeebies—we will understand. Sit down and have a cuppa or two on the house.

Our staff are happy to discuss your concerns. We are trained, qualified and experienced in dental phobias. If this is enough, leave and have a think.

Meet the team—tour the premises

If you are ready for the next step, you can meet the Envisage Dental Ferndown team. All of us. Putting faces to names can help to break down barriers. As does understanding our systems and processes, our treatments and technology.

You get to know us. We get to know you. Have a guided tour of the building. Ask as many questions as you like.

Choose your dentist

Getting to know you means we get to play matchmaker. Partnering you with the dentist we feel is the most sympathetic to your personality and individual requirements. But, if you have a preference, we are happy to oblige!

Your first dental health assessment

Comfy chair, feet up, music in the background. We are happy to tailor the tunes to your taste. Or you can bring your own music and headphones and zone out to your favourites while we check your dental health. It doesn’t take long and is painless. We can stop at any time if you need a break.

Your first dental treatment

This can be as simple and pain-free as polishing your teeth or a sealant filling. You won’t feel a thing and will walk tall when we’ve finished. And don’t forget the music!

If you need a course of treatments, we plan these close together. This means you don’t have the time to fret and undo all the good work that has got you this far. Take the first step today…why not give us a call on 01202 871488 for a chat and to find out how we could help you.

I couldn't be happier with the treatment I received at Envisage Dental Ferndown. From my very first consultation with Tom and Tayla through to the final appointment, the entire team was professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive.<br><br>I had four veneers and four crowns fitted, and the whole process was explained clearly every step of the way. I always felt comfortable, well-informed, and confident that I was in expert hands.<br><br>The attention to detail and quality of the work have exceeded my expectations. The end result looks completely natural, and I now have the smile I'd always hoped for. I genuinely can't thank the team enough for their care, skill, and dedication throughout my treatment.<br><br>I would highly recommend Envisage Dental Ferndown to anyone considering cosmetic dental treatment. It's been an excellent experience from start to finish, and I'm absolutely delighted with the results.

Overall superb service provided, every facet of my experience at Envisage was first class. The treatment provided by Dr Hugo Rowland and the Dental Nurse was outstanding; both of whom were friendly and professional, whilst the procedure itself was to the highest standard. The lady on reception I interacted with was helpful and friendly. No one looks forward to going to the dentist, but when you receive treatment and service of such a high standard, it is about as good as it gets!

Very efficient, friendly and professional staff. Latest technology and up to date procedures make the visit comfortable and manageable.

As a very nervous patient. I was put immediately at ease by the dentist and dental nurse. Both were extremely kind and supportive. Everything was explained fully to me and time given for my next option. Cannot praise them highly enough. The receptionist was also very kind and caring after the tooth extraction and made sure that I was feeling up to leaving the practice.

I had Invisalign done with Tom. From start to finish he was very thorough, making sure he made my teeth look as good as he possibly could, he also talked me through every stage making sure I had a good understanding of what was going on/going to happen next. He is also very polite and friendly along with his assistant and the receptionists. Any question or queries I had he was more than happy to answer/help. I am so much more confident and happy now it was 100% worth doing. Overall i had a very good experience with Tom and would strongly recommend him!
