Gentle Dentistry

The most common fear when it comes to dentistry is of pain when having treatment. This is completely normal!

We (Winning Smiles Dentists Romford), have helped hundreds of people past this problem, with our extensive experience in this area, and our investment in medical technology to support all of our patients.

The dental wand, 3d scanning and conscious sedation have helped hundreds of people. We love the reviews people leave after having solved the problem: the fear of dentistry and wanting nicer teeth.

Painless Injection

The Dental Wand releases a small dose of anaesthetic to numb the area before we do anything at all. A gentle experience for everyone, every time.

Conscious Sedation

Conscious sedation (CS) is the best of both worlds. Remain in control during the process, completely forget the whole thing afterwards. Amazing but true.

The Dental Wand releases a small dose of anaesthetic so that the area is being numbed before the needle goes in. This means a pain-less injection for everyone, every time.

Some dentists charge extra to use this technology – but for us, it is at the heart of our gentle dental philosophy, not an optional extra!

How can dentistry be painless?

Avoiding painful injections is the first step. We use the dental wand for all of our patients.


It is perfectly normal to be worried about dentistry,

Conscious sedation (CS) is the final step to reassure most anxious patients needing dental treatment. If you have a needle phobia, concerns about gag reflexes and invasive dental treatment, Conscious Sedation is the best way overcoming all these fears.

Interestingly, you are neither awake nor are you put to sleep. The sedatives and painkillers administered makes you utterly relaxed and drowsy and makes you completely unaware of both the numbing anaesthetic (LA) and the actual treatment.

And finally – the most important ingredient?

We take our time – anaesthetic does not take effect ‘at the speed of light’!

Often new patients tell us that their experience of fillings is a sharp pain from the injection followed by  a dentist drilling the tooth before it has gone properly numb: the result? Pain and Fear.

The most important ingredient is taking the time. The time for painless procedures to take effect, the time to ask if everything is ok, and to pay attention to the answer.

Take the time to come and see us and talk things through beforehand, it’s never as bad as you think.

What they say about us

Keely – Smile Confidence

I came across your website today and thought I must leave you a review. Better late than never, as my cosmetic treatment with Andrew and his team, came to an end back in February 2005. Not only did I pose a challenge cosmetically, but I had a fear of dentists from my schooldays… (we wont go there!) I am very happy with the result….I now smile with confidence for the first time in 30 years, plus I am also over my dentist phobia! If I hadn’t moved over 300 miles to Cornwall you’d have still had to put up with me now! Keep up the good work…..

Sam – In Safe Hands

I was a patient of Mike Fennell several years ago and all I have to say is that I have never felt so comfortable in the hands of a dental practitioner.

Thank-you.
