As a regular customer of the Selsdon Dental Surgery, I recently used their services for the Invisalign process. Dr. Shukla took a lot of time to ensure everything was executed correctly with frequent check ups ensuring everything went to plan. I am very happy with the result. I would absolutely recommend. Thank you very much!

At 62 years old, I have been to many good (and not so good) dentists over the years, but Darshan and his team at Selsdon Dental Surgery are by far the best I have ever been to. I have had general dentistry work carried out within this last year, and a few days ago, some composite cosmetic work done, all by Darshan. He is so thorough in explaining everything before he carries out any work, and is gentle and competent in all areas. My cosmetic work (and general dentistry) was cheaper than other dental quotes in the area too and I’m thrilled with my new cosmetic treatment. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful and I’m not kept waiting and tend to be called in on time. What a brilliant find, I’m so glad I changed to Selsdon Dental surgery and cannot praise Darshan and his team high enough. 5* service all round. If you’re thinking of changing dentists, or moving to this area, this is the best by far. And even if you’re not, it’s worth a long drive!!! Thank you. Karen.

I recently completed my Invisalign treatment and composite bonding with Dr. Darshan, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the initial consultation to the final touches, the entire experience was smooth and professional.Dr. Darshan took the time to explain every step of the Invisalign process clearly, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed throughout.I highly recommend Dr. Darshan. It’s been one of the best investments I’ve made in myself, and I finally have the confident smile I’ve always wanted.

Our whole family is registered at Selsdon Dental Surgery. Dr Shukla is a fantastic dentist, always smiling, very competent and explains treatment in details. We had all sorts of treatments there and were totally satisfied with them.. Other staff members are also very friendly and surgery itself is super clean too .. Would certainly recommend it to others..

Having been at the same practice for 30 years, I was extremely apprehensive when I was introduced to Darshan due to Simon retiring.I decided to have a check and discussed Invisalign treatment, Darsh put me at ease from the off, at every consultation he explained fully what would happen and would only proceed if I was happy.My treatment finished last year and I have been extremely pleased with the results and after care.I've recently had 2 new crowns fitted and was quite anxious but again, Darshan was patient and explained the procedure.I also need to commend Ellie the dental nurse, very lovely young lady, who is extremely professional.All staff are polite, courteous and hopefully my dentist for the next 30 years.A.S

The best dentist ever! Dr Darshan constantly puts me at ease and offers the best level of treatment. He was very accommodating with any tweaks I wanted for my Invisalign treatment and got me to the stage where everyone compliments my smile! He also has been so helpful with my son’s teeth as well and made going to the dentist a nice fun experience for him. I highly recommend Selsdon Dental Surgery!

Dr Darshan and the team at Selsdon Dental Surgery are wonderful. I have been a client for several years now and have always had a fantastic experience. From the standard routine check ups to my Invisalign journey, Dr Darshan and the lovely dental nurse have consistently been professional, informative, friendly and so kind.

I honestly couldn't be happier with the treatment I received from the whole team at Selsdon Dental Surgery. Dr Shukla is absolutely lovely, really patient and takes his time explaining the treatment. He offers honest, no pressure advice and is happy to answer any questions. He replaced a crown on my front tooth, which I have been self-concious about for years, and I really couldn't be happier with the result. He really cared about how it looked and how I felt. I highly recommend Selsdon Dental Practice - thank you to the team for looking after me.

I cannot praise Dr. Darshan enough. I recently had dental surgery and being a nervous patient was put completely at ease. He made a plan and explained clearly all that needed doing. The finished job was excellent. My experience was so positive and appreciated I would highly recommend Dr. Darshan.

I've hated trips to the Dentist ever since I broke my front teeth when I was at school. I had horrible crowns fitted which I've put up with for years, and only grudgingly came to get new ones fitted when one of the old ones kept falling out. It's been the best experience I have ever had, I was treated with compassion and understanding from my first visit, and I now have two excellent crowns fitted and a smile I actually like! I'd recommend Selsdon Dental Surgery to everyone. ❤️

I came to Selsdon Dental surgery 18months ago and it was the best decision I’ve ever made! I’ve just finished the Invisalign process and I couldn’t be happier with my teeth. Darshan took time and care analysing my teeth and making sure the process was as smooth as possible. Not only is he exceptional at his job, he’s also one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. The other dental staff are also lovely and go out of their way to help you. Thank you Selsdon Dental Surgery!

I completed the Invisalign treatment with Dr. Shukla, and he made the entire process seamless. He took the time to address my concerns with care and provided tailored solutions. His friendly and attentive approach, combined with his exceptional knowledge and skill, ensured excellent results.

Really excellent dental practice. I had been a patient of Dr. Mooi my whole life up until his retirement and I am more than happy with his replacement, Dr. Shukla. I recently had my wisdom teeth removed and Dr. Shukla was incredibly reassuring and made it as painless as possible. Would recommend.

I recently completed my Invisalign treatment with Dr Shukla and was very pleased with the process. He is not only highly knowledgeable and skilled, but has genuine care and compassion towards his patients, making each visit a pleasure! Dr Shukla did a great job of explaining every step of the process clearly and addressed all my questions with patience and kindness, making the entire process easy and comfortable.My mum is also a patient of Dr Shukla who has more complex requirements after previous surgery and is a somewhat nervous patient - he consistently makes her feel well cared for and she couldn’t speak more highly of him! An excellent dentist who I would highly recommend.

The team at Selsdon Dental have been incredible! Dr. Shukla offers honest advice and support and doesn't make you feel pressured into unnecessary procedures. Super friendly and no question is too small. Great atmosphere and he really cares about his patients. My whole family goes here because it is such a great service, cannot recommend this surgery more!

I had my first dental check up in over 2 years today at Selsdon Dental Surgery. After submitting several enquiries to various local dental practices last weekend, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a response within only 15 minutes, especially given it was a Saturday night. I was looking for an appointment as soon possible so to be able to get one just 4 days later was a real plus.All of the staff were really welcoming and put me at ease instantly. Dr Darshan took the time to understand my dental history, provide honest recommendations of what work needed doing, and ultimately did an amazing job on all the work I had done today. Given that I’ve had bad experiences with other dentists in the past insisting on expensive treatment that I wasn’t convinced was needed, to find a dentist who’s genuinely honest and puts patient above profit is very refreshing. Have already booked my next check up in 6 months and I’m confident that I’ve found a dentist who will help me look after my teeth long-term. Highly recommend!

I have been a customer of the Selsdon Dental Surgery for over 35 years, originally with Dr Mooi, and now with Dr Darshan Shukla. When Dr Mooi retired I was a little nervous as he had been my dentist since childhood, and I have never been the most comfortable dental patient. However, upon meeting Darshan and having had some treatment with him, I feel completely reassured that he was an excellent choice to lead this practice, and that Dr Mooi has left his patients in very capable hands.Darshan is very patient, fully explains any treatment options, and really takes into consideration the patient's individual needs and accommodations. I especially appreciate that he plans long term, ensuring that the treatment you receive is the best option for you not only for today, but also in 10+ years from now. He takes pride in the final appearance of any treatments, leaving me with a renewed confidence in my smile.

I have just completed my Invisalign Teeth straightening & whitening here, and am very satisfied with the services. My teeth are now much straighter than I would have hoped, and I am really happy with the results! The staff at the practice are super helpful & professional, also always flexible to fit in appointments where possible to ensure treatment is completed to schedule. I highly recommend Selson Dental!

A very great experience with my dentist, Darshan. I was comfortable and felt no pain. I had two front teeth repaired and I am so pleased with the result. Highly recommend. A great replacement from Mr Moi, who retired.

My 83 year old Mum-in-Law recently registered at Selsdon Dental surgery on my recommendation. A nervous patient, her own long term dentist had just retired. She was EXTREMELY happy with Darshan, “such a lovely and gentle man,” she said, “so gentle, very thorough, put my mind at ease!” He addressed any concerns she had and just couldn’t have been nicer. She is just thrilled and relieved to find such a special surgery, the dentist, dental nurse, receptionists, all so kind and welcoming, she would have no hesitation in recommending the surgery to her friends and other family members! Thank you!

They really know how to walk you through the steps and provide thorough care. Thank you ever so much for your service and time. I'll definitely be back!

I would highly recommend Selsdon Dental Surgery. A number of my front teeth needed treatment and Dr Shukla took the time to listen to my views and concerns and a treatment plan agreed around that. At every stage he explained the process and what to expect and I am very pleased with the outcome. The members of the reception team were also very helpful and friendly and overall I am very happy with the service provided by the surgery.

Highly recommend the Selsdon Dental Surgery. Dr Darshan Shukla and all the staff are superb. All very welcoming, friendly & efficient. It was my first time meeting Dr Darshan since he took over the practice and he was very thorough and informative & he has a very chilled vibe about him so you feel relaxed and at ease immediately.

I had an issue that led to root canal work. The standard of care and service was excellent. The staff are personable, welcoming and efficient and get back to you promptly if you have any queries. My dentist was the height of professionalism. My treatment was fast, efficient and completely free of any trauma or even discomfort. Excellent.

Michelle Belle

I had a root canal completed on my back tooth, and I was able to eat again on my left side of my tooth for the first time since last November. I expected pain, and I haven't had any at all. I'm so grateful to you for sorting my tooth out and appreciate the follow-up call the next day to check how I was doing.

My family have been going to the practice for a few years for regular checkups and found the transition to Dr. Shukla a positive one. Also the staff are very friendly and always have a nice chat. My two primary school aged children enjoy going and feel at ease. I was pleased to find out Dr. Shukla is very experienced in providing Invisalign treatments, so I took the plunge to correct bad crowding of my bottom teeth due to neglecting to wear my retainers as a teenager. 14 weeks later my teeth look great again and I’m pleased I went through with it. Worth every penny. I’ve already referred a friend for her Invisalign journey!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr Darshan today after a cruelling week of tooth pain. I'm a nervous patient and he put me at ease immediately. He was very experienced and I feel confident and rest assured that I will be in safe hands for my treatments going forward. Imagine looking forward to going back to the dentist after all these years!

I have never been keen going to the dentist due to previous experiences as a child, i have been going there for quite a few years and saw Doctor Mooi. When it changed hand I was cautious but when i went I found I was worrying for nothing I had to have an extraction Dr Shukla explained the process to me and made me feel at ease and was kind and understanding in my discomfort and nervousness of being there, i have a follow-up in a couple months time which which I'm not nervous about going to. He also saw my son who has autism, he was understanding, patient, kind and encouraging so my son came out happy. Everyone there is kind and cheerful and makes the experience comfortable I would highly recommend them

I wanted to wait a while after my treatment to post this review.I needed emergency dental treatment which was resolved very quickly after visiting the surgery. I wanted to return 2 weeks later for an extraction.I personally couldn’t watch Dr Shukla do the extraction. He was very understanding and allowed me to wear an eye mask.All options were carefully explained to me. I even received a follow up phone call a week after my extraction.I had brilliant service and would have no hesitation on recommending the surgery to a friend.

I have found Dr Darshan Shukla to be very welcoming, friendly, efficient and professional. He put me at ease straight away. He is currently helping me with TMD and has explained everything very well. I have recently seen him for a filling which was dealt with very well.I am due back in July to have a tooth capped and get a new mouth guard for the TMD. I feel totally in safe hands and wouldn't go anywhere else.

I highly recommend Darsh who has recently taken over the practice. I needed a root canal filling which I was dreading. Darsh put me at ease straightway, he sat in front of me to explain exactly what he would be doing as opposed to talking at the back of you. Hand of heart I felt no discomfort whatsoever. He has a very calming disposition, perfect for those of us nervous at the dentist.

I would highly recommend Darshan at selsdon dental surgery, I had cosmetic bonding and whitening done at this dentist and I couldn’t wish for better results. From to start to finish the process was explained to me carefully and professionally and I’m so happy with my new teeth, I can’t recommend highly enough.

Sonya Cassaro

I’ve had 3 Invisalign’s over a 15 year period and by far I’ve had the best results with Dr Darshan. He is patient, listens carefully and will always go above and beyond to ensure you get the best outcome and results. I’ve had other consultations on other services too and have every confidence I will be pleased at the end. I will not go to another practise as I feel comfortable each and every time I go. He has a personable approach and we always have a giggle along the way.Receptionists are professional and friendly.Highly recommend! Keep up the good work

So happy to have joined Selsdon Dental Surgery . Darshan has been my dentist for many years so it was a no brainer to join SDS.Darshan completely has my trust and loyalty.He understands and respects my preferences with regards to how my treatment is carried out and has never made me feel uneasy or a nuisance.It was my first appointment today at SDS and I don't think I've ever been so thrilled to go to the dentist !

A legend of a Dentist!! Having known Dr Darshan Shukla for many years he is always reassuring, patient and friendly and goes the extra mile. A service always with a smile. I'm very grateful

I have to say, Dr Shukla was absolutely perfect when I first came to see him to have treatment done.I went for a consultation as I had a gap in my tooth (My fault for not wearing retainers for the right duration of time when I was younger after braces) and he recommended me to have Invisalign.I was nervous, as never was really keen on the dentist but he sat me down, explained the procedure and put me at ease.The invasalign treatment worked wonders and I am now able to smile confidently.In addition to this, he also used composite bonding to ensure after the invasalign treatment, my teeth looked perfect as I had a few small chips in them here and there.Throughout my whole treatment, Dr Shukla has kept in contact, making sure all is ok and ensuring that consultation checks were carried out during my Invasalign period.I look forward to seeing him again soon for the last final treatment of teeth whitening and a final composite bonding to ensure my teeth will always remain perfect.I highly recommend Dr Shukla for everything he has done for me, and for others I know who have also been treated by him including my family members.

I have had a great experience of Invisalign treatment from Dr Darshan Shukla! He developed and explained my treatment plan clearly and in detail, which was very helpful and reassuring.During follow-up appointments, Dr Shukla would always thoroughly discuss my treatment progress and answer all my questions. Overall, I have had fantastic results with Invisalign thanks to Dr Shukla, and he continues to provide guidance on maintaining these results.Further, during appointments, Dr Shukla is always friendly and patient, and always takes the time to provide advice on maintaining good oral health/hygiene which is much appreciated. Thank you!

Have been going to Mr Mooi for almost 2 decades and I would never go anywhere else. Always first class service and have never been let down. He genuinely cares about the patients teeth as opposed to just wanting to do any pols thing for the sake of money. Highly recommended by myself and all of my family! One member even travels 2 hours just to see him!

I have a phobia of dentists and have never taken my children to the dentist, my husband takes them. However, today my husband was away and my 16 year old daughter knocked out half of her front tooth at 8.30 this morning, she was in a lot of pain and distress so I took her straight to the dentist when they opened at 9.00. The compassion and service she and I received was fantastic and the quality of the repair job is amazing. Less than 2 hours after the injury and you can’t see that it ever happened. Brilliant - I am so grateful.
