Finding this practice and meeting Dr Asani and his team have simply changed my life around. As a nervous patient I have always been fearful attending the dentist and is why I have avoided it as much as I can. However, due to the need to see a dentist I came across Dr Asani who has really helped me so much with his kindness and total understanding about being so anxious. He undertakes treatment so gently and always explains everything as he goes, allowing me time to stop whenever I want and I am never rushed. He loves a chat too which really helps calm me. His team are so very caring too. I'm just so glad I found this lovely practice.

I’ve always been extremely nervous about going to the dentists. Past experiences have been unpleasant and is what has caused me to neglect my teeth unless in real pain. However, having been recommended to the practice I saw Dr Asani - He’s not just a dentist but an extremely kind and very understanding person when it came to treating me. He is very gentle and always provided reassurance and thanks to Dr Asani I’m now able to attend regularly at his practice. Knowing how well I’ve been looked after has given me confidence to get my teeth sorted with unnecessary worry and anxiety. Without Dr Asani I wouldn’t be where I am today - less anxious, more confident and very smiley too!

Since a child, I was an extremely anxious patient, and this had affected me having much needed dental treatment. Dr Asani has been a game changer. His kind, gentle and understanding approach, has, over time, resulted in me being completely comfortable and confident in any dental appointment or treatment needed. I highly recommend him. He is an excellent dentist.

I can’t thank Dr Asani and his team enough for getting my confidence back to have the treatment I very much needed but had put off for far too long. I wish I had found this practice before as I would have been smiling way before now. My confidence is so much better that I even look forward to visiting the dentist now. Can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you Dr Asani and your great team.

I experienced compassion and support from the time I made contact to completion of my dental treatment from Dr Asani. I was so comfortable that I even had dental implants. An amazing practice with warm friendly staff and equally experienced and caring specialists who also treated me. Dr Asani is one amazingly understanding kind dentist and this is supported by his entire team too. Thank you Dr Asani for making me smile again.

Being someone who has always been afraid of going to the dentist due to a bad experience many years ago, I have just done my best to manage my oral health but sadly without much success. Following a recommendation, I was introduced to Dr Asani who has really helped change my life by being less afraid given his super caring manner. But above all, has helped me regain the confidence I once had and I am now smiling! I truly cannot thank Dr Asani enough. He is really a one off and I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you for being you Dr Asani.

Following a recommendation to go to twenty one dental I met with Adyl who was the nicest warmest dentist I have ever met. Being extremely nervous has made me less inclined to visit a dental practice but this practice is not what I would describe as a dentist. Its more like being at a hotel spa, being greeted at the door with a smile of warmth, calming music as you enter and no typical dental smells. Adyl is the most kind caring dentist I have ever met and clearly very experienced at what he does. If you are an anxious person and need dental help then this is the place to visit for sure.

As an extremely dental phobic person I have neglected my teeth up until I found Dr asani or Adyl as he liked to be called. He is incredibly kind and really makes you feel so at ease. This includes his wonderful staff who are equally warm and genuinely caring. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Adyl or his staff either. Without their support and caring approach, I would never have sorted my teeth out. I am now proud to be able to visit the dentist as I know I am in the very best care. I see them all as one happy family which I have become part of too and I am just so very grateful to each and everyone of them. A big thank you Adyl you have really changed my life and I cant say thank you enough.

Meeting Dr Asani and his wonderful team was the best thing that happened to me. He made me feel at ease throughout and was calm and reassuring every step of the way. I am much less anxious getting my teeth checked now and cannot thank everyone enough.

For most of my life, I was a deeply anxious dental phobic, avoiding treatment for years and living with constant pain and shame as my teeth both felt bad and looked bad. However, everything changed when I found Dr. Adyl Asani. From my very first visit, I was treated with incredible kindness, respect, and understanding. Adyl took the time to support me not only with my dental phobia but also with my needs as an autistic patient. He and his team created a safe and reassuring environment where I felt heard, valued, and genuinely cared for. Rather than feeling like just another patient, I felt like a teammate in my own care journey. Every step of the process was handled with patience and compassion, and for the first time in my life, I felt able to move forward with the treatment I needed. I now have a smile I’m truly proud of, and beyond that, I no longer fear visiting the dentist. In fact, I actually look forward to my appointments—it’s always a pleasure to catch up with Adyl and his friendly team. If you struggle with dental anxiety, I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has completely redefined what dental care means to me, and I will always be grateful.

Finding Dr Asani was the best thing ever for me. He has helped me so much that whilst my anxiety will never fully go away, it has really reduced by visiting this practice. Not only is Dr Asani very understanding but he really listened to me as a patient and very gentle when undertaking treatment. I am so pleased with myself that I am able to visit Dr Asani knowing that I am being really looked after and my oral health is being maintained in a friendly caring environment. Thank you again Dr Asani, you are the best!

I never thought I would ever get to sort my teeth out given my anxiety from previous bad experiences but thankfully to finding Dr Asani he has changed my life. I am able to smile with confidence but above all, without his caring approach and understanding towards those with anxiety about visiting a dentist I would never have been able to sort my teeth out. I cannot thank Dr Asani enough, he is definately a dentist to see if you are anxious or nervous. Superb care, treatment and everyone at this practice is always very warm and welcoming too.

Thank you for listening Dr Asani and helping to support me in having dental treatment I very much needed. For a long time I have been terrified of going to the dentist, ending up suffering with pain at the hands of some awful dentists. It has taken me 3 years to be able to pluck up the courage to have treatment. The care and support shown to me right from the start has been exemplary. I felt totally reassured by Dr Asani and his lovely staff and knew I was in the very best of hands.

Following a disastrous experience many years ago at a dental practice, I have not seen a dentist for a very long time. Having come across twenty one dental I met with Dr Asani. Someone who I wished I had met as my dentist years back. He explains everything in a calm relaxed manner and carries out treatment very gently whilst being very thorough during each stage of the process. He has a very calming manner which really helped. I even had the opportunity to listen to music whilst in the chair having treatment but infact opted to watch a movie. For the first time in my life visiting a dentist have I ever been so calm and relaxed. I cannot recommend Dr Asani and his staff enough. This is definately a dentist for anyone with anxiety.

I have always been nervous of going to the dentist but after meeting Dr Asani following an urgent need for some treatment, I found him to be understanding and caring. He has now given me the confidence I needed to help me with my oral health going forward. I am very grateful to Dr Asani.

I was in need of an emergency dentist but given my anxiety I was extremely worried to go and see anyone. Thankfully a friend of mine had been to this dental practice and recommended Dr Asani. I was seen by Dr Asani who was really lovely, patient and caring. He showed me what my tooth issue was on a screen so I could understand and see what the problem was and what treatment I needed. During treatment Dr Asani was very gentle and I am just very grateful I was recommended to be seen by such a wonderful understanding dentist. Thank you to everyone at this practice who made me feel very comfortable despite my anxiety and in particular, Dr Asani.

Following my move to the area I was recommended to twenty one dental and saw Dr Asani. Despite being extremely nervous I was immediately put at ease during my initial call with the patient advisor, Kayleigh who listened to me whilst explaining my worries and concerns. A few days later I attended my appointment and met with Dr Asani who was extremely kind and understanding. I wasn't rushed at all during the time I was at my appointment and had everything carefully explained and all my questions answered too. Dr Asani and his lovely staff is definately the 'go to' dentist for anyone who is nervous and who I thoroughly recommend. Thank you very much Dr Asani for your truly genuine care and understanding.

As a indivdual who has always been nervous going to the dentist and has experienced both anxiety and panic attacks when attending, I developed a severe fear of the dentist Since being recomended about seeing Dr Asani from a close friend,I haven't looked back. All the staff and Dr Asani are all very thoughtful, people who explain procedures in a way that is easy to understand but they also show both support and empathy in every step in your dental treatment. Thank you to both Dr Asani and all the staff for your continued support,kindness and hard work!

Dr Asani made me feel calm and relaxed during my appointment with him. Clearly very experienced but very down to earth with a genuine caring approach. Something that I have not experienced with other dentists and is why I am so very glad I came across Dr Asani. Definately a 5 star dentist with a warm consistent approach from his staff too every time I have visited. Nothing is too much trouble for any of them. Thank you to you all.

Saw Dr Asani following a recommendation and can say how pleasant he was upon meeting him. Made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the appointment. And as for treatment I had, he was very gentle and explained everything to me at each stage. A beautiful clinic too. Warm and very friendly staff also. A bit like a relaxing spa environment. A dentist I would very much recommend if you're nervous.

Being a very nervous patient, Dr Asani has just been amazing right from the very start, from my initial consultation, procedures through to the after care supported by his wonderful team of staff, I can 100% hand on heart say without the help of Dr Asani I would not be smiling with confidence.

I have had bad experiences with dentists leaving me with teeth issues for a long time which I never got fixed because of that fear. It got to the point where I never smiled and had issues eating. Eventually I was encouraged to visit 21dental and I can honestly say it was the best decision of my life. I met with Dr asani who was sympathetic, understanding and reassuring. He really took his time to explain everything to me including how my smile would look like before I even decided!. I never felt rushed once. I can't thank Dr Asani enough. My confidence is back. I now smile, and eat what I want. I am the happiest I have ever been in years. Thank you so much to this lovely dentist and to all his lovely staff too.

Not been to the dentist for a long time due to previous bad experiences with dentists. Due to being in super agony I had no choice and needed to find one. I got recommended to twenty one dental and saw Dr Asani who was super kind and caring. Treated my pain and got me smiling again. Definately a dentist I would recommend.

As an extremely nervous patient, seeing Dr Asani has truly helped me regain my trust in visiting the dentist now. He is extremely calm and caring and totally put me at ease. Nothing was too much trouble for him and I am proud to be able to go to the dentist to see him. He explained treatment and what I needed to have done without any rush or pressure. He also has lovely staff too who are equally warm and caring. I am very grateful I found Dr Asani and thoroughly recommend him to anyone nervous.

Following a recommendation from a friend who knew how nervous I was about going to the dentist, I met with Dr Asani. He was so kind and caring and as for treatment, everything was explained so I understood what was to happen and allowed to take breaks in between whenever I wanted. Absolutely no pressure whatsoever and he really took his time with me. No rushing or being pressurised into anything. A really caring dentist with a stunning practice with none of the typical dental smells either! I felt at ease by Dr Asani as soon as I met him. His nurse and the rest of the staff too were lovely. Definately a dentist I recommend for anyone who is nervous x

As someone who hasn't been to the dentist for a very long time due to previous bad experiences, I was in need of urgent dental help so had to find a dentist. I came across Dr Asani at Twenty One Dental. He was really very caring and understanding and put me at ease pretty much straight away. Treatment was undertaken gently and I even got to see what the problems were with my teeth on their amazing tech equipment. Nothing like I had experienced or seen before. The practice staff were equally lovely. I infact forgot I was at the dentists! I am so glad I found this place and have signed up as a new patient. I'm so proud of myself but thats all down to Dr Asani and his team for being so kind and understanding towards me. I can't stop smiling - thank you thank you thank you

I have always been a very nervous dental patient, however Dr. Asani has completely restored my confidence and I no longer experience the anxiety and stress that used to stop me going for dental appointments. Dr Asani has a very calm and reassuring manner which instantly puts you at ease. Every procedure is fully explained in an easy to understand and caring way and nothing is rushed. I thoroughly recommend Dr Asani and his team and cannot thank them enough for their support and kindness.

Made me feel so relaxed and put me at ease straight away. I attended my appointment with a friend and was greeted by their dedicated patient coordinator and had a choice to sit in the relaxation suite away from everyone else until my appointment or to sit in the patient waiting area. I chose the relaxation suite and totally forgot I was in a dental practice! No typical dental smells, but a beautiful spa type smell with such kindness shown by everyone. I was then taken to meet Dr Asani. A little nervous I must say but what a wonderful warm caring dentist he is. Softly spoken with a great smile and clearly very experienced. Took his time with me. I was not rushed at all and everything was clearly explained to me. Lovely nurse who assisted him too. The surgery itself is simply stunning with amazing technology that really helped me understand about my teeth and the teeth issues I had which Dr Asani talked me through every step of the way. I cannot thank Dr Asani enough. He has changed my life by being able to smile again. Be confident again. Plus I now even sit in the waiting area with all the other patients when I attend at the practice! I cannot recommend this dentist enough. Thank you Dr Asani and the team.
