A dental crown is a tooth-shaped cap that’s placed over your tooth. It’s a permanent solution, and once in place it should look, feel and function just like any other tooth.

A filling is used to fill a cavity (a hole caused by decay) or other damage such as a chipped tooth. Cavities get bigger over time which is why regular check-ups are important. Without treatment a cavity or chipped tooth can lead to pain, bad breath, infection and even the loss of your tooth.
Reserve your space for personalized dental services and a healthier smile.
Regular examinations will ensure good oral health by detecting problems early.
Our highly skilled dentists provide expert treatment, improving your oral health and wellbeing and working towards confident, beautiful smiles.

I hadn’t been to a dentist for a very long time after a traumatic operation when I was younger. Dr. Malik was extremely understanding, he calmly explained every step and made me feel very relaxed and well looked after throughout. I cannot recommend the team highly enough, a really excellent service.Posted on Google![]()

I had a wonderful experience at the dentist today. I would like to say a big thank you to Dr. Nehme Malik for taking such great care of me. He did my filling and hygienist treatment with great care and professionalism, and made me feel very comfortable throughout. A special thank you as well to his lovely assistant, Amina, for being so kind and helpful. And thank you to Christina at reception for being so welcoming, friendly, and smiley from the moment I arrived. The whole team made me feel comfortable and well looked after. I really appreciate their kindness, professionalism, and excellent service. I’m very happy with my experience and would definitely recommend them! 😊🦷✨Posted on Google![]()

I initially attended as a private patient for a check-up, hygienist appointment and X-rays. The experience was okay, although I’ve had more thorough care elsewhere. A few months later, I needed an emergency appointment. They couldn’t see me that day, which I understood, and offered an appointment for the following evening. Unfortunately, this was cancelled that morning without explanation, with the next available appointment being another day later. Given the urgency, I had the problem treated elsewhere within a couple of hours. The other dentist was extremely accommodating and provided excellent care, so I’ve now registered with them instead. Overall, a disappointing experience, particularly when seeking urgent care as a private patient.Posted on Google![]()

I cannot recommend this dentist enough. All the dentists my children and I have seen at Forest Dental over the last 4 years have been fantastic- reassuring and kind. They are consistently professional, friendly and really put you at ease. Excellent service every time.
