Satisfied with the service. They had a free xray to check your teeth before starting your treatment. But if you need to print out the xray scan, you will need to pay. But overall service is okay

I recently visited Smile Delight Dental and could not be happier with the excellent service I received! It was very easy to book and the price estimates given were accurate to my appointment and very fair. Dr Lam answered all of my questions and was reassuring as I had not visited the dentist for a while. My treatment was gentle and she offered many useful tips for maintaining my dental health. I especially appreciate her excellent cosmetic work, the ICON treatment worked perfectly to remove and blend my white spots and the composite edge bonding helped make my smile look much straighter, fixing a big insecurity. You can tell that she puts the most effort possible into her work and also prioritises a conservative, natural result. My dental assistant and the receptionist working were also very kind. Thank you so much, highly recommend and hope to be back!

(Translated by Google) The dentist was very friendly and patient, and I could listen to music or watch a play to relieve my tension. The explanations were very detailed, and a nurse was there to comfort me during the extraction. He truly is the best dentist I've ever had (for me).
