If you’ve come across Serene Dental because you’re looking for an anxiety-friendly, non-judgmental dentist then honestly look no further. I hadn’t been to the dentist for 8 years and the longer I left it the more scared I was to go. I finally plucked up the courage to book an appointment and I’m so glad I did because my whole view on dentists has changed and Dr Ali has resolved one of my biggest insecurities! I went from crying before my check up to actually looking forward to my deep cleaning because I knew I was in good hands. Dr Ali is brilliant - kind, attentive and extremely patient while being honest and informative so I can stay on top of my dental hygiene going forward. The dental nurse was lovely too (sorry I didn’t get her name). The enjoyable dentistry technique (happy gas, meditation and calming music) made me feel so at ease. My teeth are cleaner than I ever thought possible and for the first time I don’t feel afraid of future check ups and cleanings. Sophie the receptionist was also super kind and supportive - having such genuine care from the moment I walked in made such a difference. I honestly can’t thank the Serene team enough!
If you’re also struggling to overcome that first barrier of booking an appointment, I promise you won’t regret it and Serene will change your view of what dentists can and should be!

Zainab M.

Dr Ali did a great job on my composite bonding. He was also very friendly and it was a relaxing and easy procedure

Melissa B.

I have been having treatment at Serene Dental for over a year now and I can honestly say that Dr Safa and her team are exceptional. After a very serious accident many years ago, I have needed a high level of care, reassurance, and understanding, all of which Dr Safa has consistently provided.

The clinic itself is fantastic, and the professionalism, knowledge, and kindness shown by every member of staff truly set it apart. They make you feel comfortable, supported, and confident throughout your treatment.

I highly recommend Serene Dental and I am so excited to see my final Invisalign results. This is now my dental practice of choice for all future treatments, and for my family as well.

Ali H.

I am someone who never really took care of my dental health, and honestly, tried to avoid trips to the dentist. On my first visit to a dentist in over 3 years, I have to say, I was amazed at the entire customer journey as soon as I entered Serene.

Putting aside that you don’t feel like you’re in a dental practice, but more of a wellness center, the staff and quality of care was excellent, not just fulfilling my dental needs but encouraging me to be much more consistent with my dental health overall.

Maya T.

Thank you so much to Dr Safa for my composite bonding. She has an exceptional eye for detail and delivered the most natural-looking refinements to my teeth post-Invisalign. I honestly can’t stop smiling in photos thanks to her.

Her practice and team are equally wonderful.. so warm and welcoming that it never felt like a dental appointment. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Ithaka R.

Dr Safa and her team are wonderful! My daughter had a serious phobia of the dentist and Dr Safa was able to do all the treatments needed with her calm and kind energy. Highly recommend Serene dental for children and adults.

Ali A.

Excellent dental practice! Friendly staff, modern and stylish clinic, and fantastic care. Highly recommend

Sura H.

I had an amazing experience at Serene Dental and Facial Aesthetics, especially with Dr Safa.
From the moment I arrived, the team made me feel welcomed and at ease, but Dr Safa truly stood out. She is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle, and attentive. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire treatment.

Her attention to detail and genuine care made such a difference. The results are natural and exactly what I hoped for. The clinic itself is spotless, calming, and very professional.

I highly recommend Dr Safa and the whole team at Serene Dental and Facial Aesthetics. An exceptional experience from start to finish.

Leslie

Excellent experience at Serene by Dr Safa. Dr Payvand was very professional, friendly and attentive. She kept me fully informed of what she was going to do and carried out the work to a high standard. Would highly recommend

Nak A.

Dr Safa provides amazing high quality results. The clinic is stunning as well as the high quality procedures and patient care! She used the latest machine for gas and air, which made it such a relaxing experience. 100% recommend!

Zehra

Its always a calm and pampering experience when I have my treatment with Dr Safa. Shes so good at what she does, and so kind too.

Nusrat Z.

I came to Serene Dental after seeing the posts on instagram. I was having issues with my gums and my regular dentist was not particularly helpful.

I was not disappointed.
The services provided by Dr Payvand Menhadji was and is impeccable. The work that Dr Payvand has done with my gum issue is nothing short of a miracle!

Everyone at the clinic is lovely and it’s the most enjoyable dentist experience I have had. I will not be going anywhere else.

I highly recommend Serene Dental!

Pete I.

My hygienist visit with Dr Anna Middleton at Serene was amazing, as always. I found out about Dr Anna and her new age teeth cleaning techniques about 5 years ago through an Instagram post. I was immediately intrigued and booked an appointment. From that initial visit, I became a patient for life - and I don't trust my hair or teeth to just anyone. She is meticulous, knows her craft, makes the process enjoyable, and understands the little things (ie. a bit of vaseline on the lips so they don't crack during the procedure). I encourage and highly recommend Dr Anna for all of your hygienist needs. It doesn't get any better than the London Hygienist! 🙂

Jeanette N.

Anna is the best!!! I’m a nervous patient and she makes me feel at ease and super gentle! Highly recommend!

Ian P.

Always a good experience at this dentist. Having a bad gag reaction most dentists don’t understand or take the time to help you but Dr Deepti Katechia and the Serene team always make me feel relaxed and take care of me. Would recommend this practice highly.

Clodias

I had my first appointment with Dr. Rubina for a dental hygiene session and an initial consultation.

After the cleaning, my teeth were incredibly clean and shiny, and she explained everything about my dental plan.

I’m also a nervous patient, but she made me feel at ease and comfortable.

I’m looking forward to continuing my dental care with Serene.

anisa O.

The best dental hygiene by the lovely Anna Middleton! Honestly no other dental hygiene compares, it’s truly a premium experience and worth every penny! Anna always does a comprehensive consultation to understand any concerns and provides the best dental hygiene advice

Josephine N.

I cannot recommend Dr Safa and the Serene clinic enough. I’ve been a patient for years and would choose none other than this clinic and the team for treatment and care. If you’ve never been here before, I highly recommend that you give them a try.

Gabriella S.

Fantastic experience- Dr Rubina is so kind, gentle and made treatment as pleasant of an experience as possible. Highly recommend!

Kawther T.

I have been fortunate enough to visit Serene over the last few years to manage my oral health and have always been treated with exceptional professionalism and care from the whole team. More recently, I underwent a smile design makeover process and consultation with Dr Rubina, who from the get go, was considerate, attentive and extremely informative about my options. Her attention to detail, compassion and skill transformed my smile into my dream smile with incredible results that I could not have achieved anywhere else. A true visionary. I am forever grateful to her, her team and the wider Serene team for providing excellent service every single time.

Alice P.

Punctual, welcoming and very professional, with a waiting area that would anyway want to make you wait as long as possible (fish tank I think replenished)

Arman A.

Dr McCulloch was a great doctor!

Veronica Franc R.

Sami was super patient and attentive. He was informed re how to treat patients with dental phobia. I would 100% return. Thank you

Eddie K.

I have been a patient of Dr Safa for a few years now and the service and care that I receive each time is consistent. However, my experience was exceeded on Friday 10 October when I had to visit the clinic for an emergency tooth extraction. Once again, Dr Safa did not disappoint. I also met a new colleague, Dr Ali Al-Naher, who was just as excellent, who jumped in to cover for Dr Safa when she was fully booked. The compassion, kindness, empathy, and genuine care demonstrated by both made my visit a wonderful experience. Thank you both for all you did on the day. Your generosity has not gone unnoticed. All the best for now, E. Mohammadi.

ابو ن.

Many thanks to Dr. Ali and the medical staff. It is a good job. I wish you continued success.

Susana R.

Had my first consultation with Dr. Menhadji who was an excellent dentist. She was very caring and constantly checked that I was comfortable during my dental cleaning. I will definitely return for my next one! The clinic itself was nice and had a stylishly decorated waiting room. The wait was very short though so I didn’t get to enjoy it!

Darine C.

I met Dr. Safa at the beginning, before starting my treatment. She was very kind and honest, which gave me a great first impression. After that, I began my treatment with Dr. Rubina. She, too, was very honest and explained that I needed to start with hygiene treatment in order to properly fix my smile.
Dr Rubina is extremely professional and makes you feel relaxed throughout the treatment process. The entire team is genuinely kind and supportive.

To be honest, I have no regrets about starting my dental journey here—especially after having dental trauma for many years. I’m truly grateful for the care and attention I received.

Diya V.

Dr Safa’s Clinic has been amazing! They have been extremely supportive when I needed them to be. I’m am so glad I chose to go with Serene dental for my Invisalign treatment.

Sophie Medlin - C.

I saw Anna Middleton (London Hygienist) for my clean and had an excellent experience. Thank you so much.

liam K.

I suffer from bad anxiety around serious dental treatment. Dr Yusuf extracted two wisdom teeth with IV sedation. His chairside manner was excellent, providing constant reassurance and making sure I was comfortable at all stages of the procedure.

Ben M.

This was my first appointment. Sophie at reception is extremely polite, helpful and a pleasure to meet. First impressions are always important and she is a great asset to this practice. Afterwords, I was seen by Dr Payvand and her new nurse. Both were absolutely amazing, brilliant and excellent teamwork. 👌👍🌹11 out of 10.came out happy bunny!

Ali M.

My case was an emergency one and it was taken care of without any problems. I was in London for only a couple of days for business. The night before two very important meetings, one of my veneers came off! I searched and called every office. Serene Dental responded and squeezed me in their busy schedule early the morning before my meetings. They recemented it and it was perfect. Thanks you so much!

Jon S.

Very nice service and dentist Anna very nice only complaint is I expected my teeth to be polished as advertised after cleaning but they did not polish to finish as expected and my appointment only lasted 30 minutes when it said appointment was for 1 hour when I made the booking?

Christiana C.

I came to the Serene clinic and saw Dr Deepti and Barbara the dental nurse. I am a very nervous patient and have left coming to the dentist for a long time. They both kept me calm and made me feel at ease. Dr Deepti explained everything to me and made me feel so comfortable throughout the process of my treatment, she is so calm and patient. Barbara was amazing too, always keeping me calm and reassuring me throughout. They are a fantastic team and although I am not close to the clinic the travel is certainly worth coming to see them both. Thank you for everything and making me feel so calm throughout.

Michael B.

Phenomenal level of detail.

zahra F.

Dr Safa is an expert in her field, treating patients with absolute respect, kindness and honesty. She’s extremely gentle and knowledgeable, all the qualities you want from a dentist. I recommend her to all my friends. The vibe at the practice is also so relaxing and beautiful- it’s absolute first class service at Serene!

Family K.

We’ve been seeing Dr. Safa as our family dentist for several years and cannot recommend her highly enough. She is experienced, kind, and thoroughly professional. Dr. Safa has a calm and reassuring manner that always puts us at ease, even during more complex treatments. Her attention to detail and commitment to high-quality dental care are truly exceptional. We feel very fortunate to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for outstanding dental care.

Josephine K.

Dr Safa is wonderful, so professional and extremely current in devices, techniques and her care. I have recommended Serene to all my network!

Diana Carol L.

A friend of mine, who’s an orthodontist, recommended that I see Dr. Safa to replace veneers I had for many years. I also wanted to take the opportunity to improve my smile by making the new veneers slightly larger. I’m absolutely thrilled with the result—Dr. Safa nailed the size, color, and texture perfectly in just one fitting. We were on a tight timeline, as I decided to go ahead with the procedure only a month and a half before my wedding, but everything was done seamlessly. I'm extremely happy and satisfied with her work, and I highly recommend her!

Elisa P.

Absolutely phenomenal! Anna is hands-down the ultimate expert when it comes to dental hygiene with AirFlow. Her care, precision, and dedication are unmatched—she doesn’t just clean your teeth, she elevates the entire experience. Always warm, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your smile, Anna goes above and beyond every single time. Trust me, once you’ve had an appointment with her, you’ll never want to see anyone else. Book with her—you’ll thank yourself later!

Giulia T.

Excellent service all round! Dr Payvand and her assistant are friendly, conscientious and professional. Very good experience

Cindy K.

I’ve been a patient at Serene Dental for the past 4 years, and I can honestly say it’s been a wonderful experience. Dr. Deepti is hands down one of the best dentists I’ve ever had—her professionalism, skill, and genuine care for her patients set her apart. The team at the reception, especially Julija, always greet you with a smile and make you feel right at home. Every visit has been smooth and stress-free, and I always leave feeling well taken care of. I highly recommend Serene Dental to anyone looking for excellent dental care with a personal touch!

jon M.

i am a nervous patient and all i can say is wow ! dr menhadji is amazing she puts you at ease and the gas and air turned this into a genuinely serene experience, best dentist visit ever

Jesse A.

I recently visited Serene Dental & Facial Aesthetics for a dental examination, GBT hygiene clean, and a digital scan, and I can confidently say it was one of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked through the door, I was made to feel incredibly welcome.

Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the reception team and even offered a beverage, which was a lovely touch that set the tone for the outstanding care I was about to receive. The clinic itself is beautifully presented — clean, modern, and relaxing, which instantly put me at ease.

Dr. Rubina, who carried out my dental examination and cleaning, was exceptional. She was incredibly professional yet warm, taking the time to explain each step of the process so I felt comfortable throughout. The GBT hygiene clean was thorough yet gentle, and Dr. Rubina ensured I understood the benefits of the treatment and how to maintain my dental health moving forward. Her attention to detail and commitment to ensuring my comfort was truly impressive.

I also had the pleasure of being assisted by Toriana, the dental nurse, who was equally fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and ensured everything ran smoothly during my visit.

The digital scan was another impressive aspect of the visit — a cutting-edge process that gave me a clear visual understanding of my dental health. The team took the time to explain the results, empowering me with knowledge about my oral care.

I genuinely felt that the staff went above and beyond to provide exceptional service.

Thank you to Dr. Rubina, Toriana, and the entire team for such an amazing experience — I’ll definitely be returning!
