There comes a point in the life of some teeth where another filling stops being the sensible answer. Knowing when a filling is too big matters, because the alternative to recognising it is a cycle of ever-larger repairs, each one failing sooner than the last, until...
If you have been told your tooth needs an inlay or an onlay, you may be wondering what either actually is, and why a filling will not do. The difference between an inlay and an onlay is simpler than the names suggest: it is entirely about how much of the tooth each...
If you have been told a tooth needs a crown, it is worth asking whether an onlay would do instead. Having an onlay instead of a crown preserves considerably more of your natural tooth, and for a good number of teeth it is the better long-term decision. It does not...

I have been a patient here for a few years now, and have always had an excellent experience! My young children attend with me, they are treated with kindness and sincerity and have no concerns about visiting the dentist. Always super clean, all of the equipment, as well as the surgery itself are maintained to a very high standard. Dr Bilverdi and Hope are clearly very experienced and provide a great service.
Wonderful service as usual. Dr Bilverdi and Hope always show care and concern and have the time to chat with you. My wife and I have both attended his practice for many years and would highly recommend it. We would not go anywhere else.
I have recently had a cracked tooth, i got an appointment, i am so fearful of the dentist but when i got there such a lovely reception, the receptionist was absolutly brilliant, made me feel so welcome, and the dental nurse made feel that i had nothing to worry about, especially when u are so fearful of a dentist, and the clinician that actually did the work for me was so welcoming and again made me feel that i had nothing to worry about so professional, all of the team, thankyou so much. Will definatly recommend to friends and family
An amazingly professional and friendly service. They have brought my teeth back from the brink of extinction. With Dr. Bilverdi and Hope, I feel i am in safe and trusted pair of hands every time i attend. Would highly recommend!!!
Dr Bilverdi is absolutely fantastic - best dentist I've ever been to. He's extremely accomodating, patient and caring, and has done a fantastic job on my teeth (fillings and a crown). He always goes the extra mile and really cares about his patients. The prices are very reasonable as well. Hope, the dental nurse is also just so lovely. I cannot recommend the practice highly enough. Thank you so much Dr Bilverdi and Hope!
I was given an emergency appointment today and found everyone to be friendly and professional. Everything was explained to me clearly and honestly. I will definitely be returning to this practice in future instead of my previous dentist.
Very friendly and professional service, all safety precautions were taken as well. Would highly recommend
I needed an urgent appointment because of a tooth infection. I was seen to really quickly, treated with antibiotics. The tooth was taken out a week later. I was really nervous but I was put at ease by Dr Bilverdi and his assistant. The tooth came out OK in fact I didn't even feel a thing. I recommend Tender Dental Care, as the name says, Tender care.
Just got back from seeing Dr Bilverdi. I was initially nervous going as it’s been far too long since I last went but I would throughly recommend this dentist. Made me feel very comfortable and I’m feeling confident for future appointments!
I have been seeing Dr Bilverdi for nearly 20 years now. His care and attention to detail is first class and I have never had any trouble with his work. No filling or crown has fallen out and no treatment has had to be repeated. If you are not cleaning any areas he will point this out. A top class dentist and his assistant Hope is always very helpful and efficient.
Dr bilverdi was so good with me I was so scared of getting a damaged tooth removed I normally have sedation but I was brave and didn’t go for sedation so glad I didn’t He talks you through everything he is doing very gentle calming and professional Definitely going back Thank you so much
Been coming here 20yrs and I can't complain, I'm very well looked after, superb treatment
I was on holiday and experienced terrible tooth pain. I called these guys, they were amazing, booked me in early and sorted the tooth straight away. I can not thank them enough. I honestly thought I was going to die of pain. No other dentist could see me..
Would definately recommend this dental surgery,as a new patient Dr Bilverdi and Hope really put me at ease and I no longer fear going to the dentist. Thank you
My wife Sharon has attended Tender Dental Care for the first time, she was very nervous at first. Dr Bilverdi and Hope soon put her at ease. She is back home now after having 3 teeth removed and very impressed with the treatment received so far. She now feels more at ease going forward.
I contacted this dentist for an emergency appointment today due to severe pain. I was frightened due to a previous experience at another dentist.Hope the dental nurse and Mr Bilverdi were very good they reassured me and explained what they were going to do throughout my consultation. Thank you both for being kind, patient and understanding.
As a very nervous patient (we're talking panic attack in the waiting room in the past) Dr. Bilverdi and his nurse have been exceptional. I'm no longer scared to go to the dentist! He has a very calming and reassuring manner and takes the time to explain everything clearly. A single-dentist practice that has been there for 26 years, with a nurse who has worked with him for 15 years, is the main reason I chose this practice. That's not to say the other practices in the area aren't good. But I found Dr Bilverdi to be outstanding in all areas. As an anxious patient, it's good to know who I'm seeing every time. It's refreshing when you call to make an appointment, and the dentist answers the phone, and then when you arrive, he is sitting at the reception desk to greet you. Had to have several injections today and can honestly say that I barely felt a thing with zero pain! The numbing spray before the injections worked brilliantly. If you are nervous about visiting a dentist, I can highly recommend Dr Bilverdi at Tender Dental Care.
I have now been to Tender Dental Care several times and I am so very pleased with the excellent treatment I have received. Dr Bilverdi has been very kind , gentle and understanding. And his nurse Hope is a very kind young lady too. I have had too many bad experiences with dentists over the years but I am now trusting and at ease when I see Dr Bilverdi. Would highly recommend !
My husband & I cannot fault this dental practice, going is always a pleasant experience!
I rung around several dentists before settling on Tender Dental Care. They could see me weeks ahead of any other practice but what sold it to me was the fact that the dentist himself answered the phone and was really friendly. I was so nervous about going and actually quite embarrassed about the state of my teeth but Dr. Bilverdi was not only patient but totally non-judgemental. He explained everything that was happening and didn’t go straight in for “you need lots of fillings”, which is always a concern when you pay privately. He instead gave me a whole range of options to consider in my own time. Dr. Bilverdi really took his time with me and at no point did I feel rushed or like I couldn’t ask more questions. Hope is also lovely and the quiet, nicely decorated environment is so much nicer than the usual bustling dentist waiting room. I was the only person on site during the appointment. The price is pretty reasonable too, with each cost being broken down before you agree to it. I have finally found a dentist I trust and will absolutely not be leaving it 6 years until my next visit! I went in terrified and tearful that I was going to loose all my teeth but left feeling relieved and relaxed. I can highly recommend!
I’m terrified of the dentist! This has meant that I have avoided attending pretty much all my adult life. My teeth were in an awful condition and I had to do something. Attending Tender Dental Care has been the best dental experience I’ve had, the thought, time, and care given has made a world of difference not only to my confidence in my smile but the avoidance of attending the dentist has been a complete turn around. The quality of work has been to the highest standards and the clinic is professional and warm. I cannot express how grateful I am for such brilliant care.
Just back from a visit to this dentist, a very warm and welcoming from both the dentist and his dental nurse, very highly recommend, sorted my problem out very quickly and I never thought I would say this “ I’m actually looking forward to going back”
Dr Bilverdi is a very good dentist. Always professional, on time and available to offer practical support. All my family are with Tender Dental Care and will not be changing anytime soon
