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

Victoria H – A big thank you to the team!

I would firstly like to say this is the first review I have ever left on a website.

After 18 months of disastrous visits to a highly recommended dental practise I was left with what I considered to be unsightly teeth and so disappointed and upset by the outcome. I then went to visit Andrew Fennell. I cannot say enough in this short review about the quality of his work, total professionalism, care, attention to detail but most importantly the outcome of what was achieved. He took on what other dentists had declined to do, and I am utterly thrilled at the result.

I have given permission for Andrew to use my before and after photographs on the website, and I think people can decide for themselves. The quality of his work is so very visible, and I cannot thank him enough for the way it’s made me feel. I would describe the practise as one of excellence, the standards, care, consideration and overall professionalism I think is outstanding.

Finally I think it is important to add that from the moment I picked up the phone and spoke to Debbie, who instilled huge faith immediately, right through to having the treatment with Victoria assisting and Julie finalising things for me I have to say the girls who work with Andrew are wonderful. I hope people don’t think this review is too long and anyone considering having any dental work I hope will read this and decide to put their faith in Andrew’s practise. Once again a big thank you to you all, I really am very grateful. All my friends and family will now be attending the practice.

Dental Review Notes:

Victoria – thanks so much for leaving that review, we’re lucky to have the team!

Gill – Adult Teeth Straightening

Having just finished my Invisalign treatment I feel I must write and thank the whole team at Winning Smiles.

Thinking at the age of 57 there was no way anything could be done for my crooked teeth. I thought I would enquire as my husband had undergone extensive implant work and the result was amazing and very successful.

I had attended an NHS dentist reqularly and thought my teeth must be in a reasonable condition, but after a consultation with Andrew I realised just how bad a condition they were in.

After a few appointments with Andrew and the Hygienist I was referred to ‘Andrew’s Dad’ Mr Fennell for my Invisalign treatment.

It has taken about 18months but the result is really great. The standard of care throughout was professional and friendly from all of the team.

I would thoroughly recommend Invisalign, you get used to wearing the aligners almost immediately and nobody even knows you are having treatment. I am more confident now when I smile than I have ever been!

Thank you Winning Smiles once again and I look forward to my next checkup!
