Once you have been paired with the appropriate dentist for you, we will assess your jaw, neck, and the soft tissues of your mouth before moving on to your teeth and gums.

3. X-rays when needed

If something isn’t visible during the exam, we may take digital X-rays to ensure nothing goes undetected.

We will tell you about all that we have seen and respond to all your questions, ensuring you are fully informed.

5. Plan for the future

If any treatment is required, we’ll explain these to you so that you can make your own decision in your own time. Our treatment co-ordinator is here for you throughout, don’t hesitate to request a chat if needed.

After some decidedly dodgy dental work at another Congleton dental surgery I had been put off visiting a dentist. A broken tooth forced me to look for a new surgery. First impressions were great, the receptionist I spoke to was helpful when I called to request an emergency appointment. I then received a call the next day to offer me an earlier appointment as they'd had a cancellation. Due to previous experiences I was apprehensive but Paul and Amy immediately put me at ease and explained what needed to be done. It turned out to be the most painless dental experience thanks to Paul's care with the anaesthetic and his very nervous patient. My badly broken tooth was filled and repaired and now looks as good as my other teeth. The result is aesthetically brilliant! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paul to anyone looking for a new dentist.

I had sudden severe pain in mouth, behind eyes, together with a headache. The receptionist staff worked hard with the dentist to get me an appointment ASAP. I was diagnosed with an infected, given antibiotics and an appointment to have the tooth extracted.
Thanks to all.

I visited Paul at Moody Terrace yesterday because I'd broken a tooth. It couldn't have come at a worse time as i'm recovering from surgery. The team were brilliant and even arranged for my appointment to take place on the ground floor. I have had a phobia of dentists since childhood, but have built a lot of trust in Paul. He is kind and calm and gentle. It was the best outcome possible is he can crown it. He's going above and beyond to do it as quickly as possible too.

I recently visited for my hygienist apt. I am a nervous patient and both Sally and Molly put me at ease throughout my treatment.

Sally took the time to explain things to me and addressed the things that made me anxious, resulting in a positive experience.

They are a credit to the team and I would recommend Sally if you do have anxieties around your dental visits, she is amazing!

Over the last two years I have had implants and crowns at the Moody Terrace Dental.

From the second you arrive at reception you are made welcome, everyone is kind, friendly and supportive, the little touch of someone coming down to reception to meet you and walk you to the consultation room means that you are already quite relaxed with the chat on the way. Throughout my many consultations I never felt rushed or hurried, a very relaxing and chatty experience every time. Adam and later Tom and Robin explained the various processes, offered alternatives and ideas I had not thought of at all. Detailed reports, charts, xrays etc appear in my inbox before I'm even back home, all of which explain everything succinctly.

Well done to the whole team, 10/10, I could not wish for better

Welcoming smile from the receptionists.
I was there for a routine check up but the dentist found time to investigate an ear difficulty that may be caused by my teeth or jaw. He was thorough, knowledgeable and unhurried in his checks. He referred me on, and the practice gave me a very prompt follow on appointment with the appropriate expert.
The dental hygienist was gentle and took on board my preferred way of removing plaque, ie not drowning my mouth and throat with water. Excellent treatment.

Three years ago I had root canal surgery on one of the molars in my lower jaw. Eventually the procedure failed and my tooth became infected. I was faced with having the tooth extracted or engaging an Endodontist to see whether it would be possible for the infection to be treated and the tooth to be refilled and saved. Following a recommendation from a colleague I had an appointment to see Dr Robin Carsons at Moody Terrace Dental Practice. I was incredibly impressed by the way in which I was treated as a new patient. Dr Carsons has a light, jovial but highly professional style which helped to put me at ease and reassured me that I was in safe hands. The treatment was completed in two one-hour appointments and was entirely pain-free. The procedure is quite involved and invasive but my tooth and my jaw settled down after a couple of days. I had an entirely positive experience. All of the staff are lovely and Dr Carsons and his nurse, in particular, are wonderful. I was quite nervous about undergoing the procedure but ten minutes or so into the first appointment realised that I was going to be OK and was able to relax. My Wife and I have made the decision to transfer to this practice. We will be taking advantage of the dental treatment plan that they offer in order to reduce the financial impact of any treatments that we require in the future. My thanks to all at Moody Terrace Dental Practice for looking after me so well.

I had an extraction June 9th 2020.
Before I attended the practice, I was contacted by phone with a supporting E mail, to explain how Moody Terrace Dental Practice intended to keep their patients and themselves safe, relating to the Corona19 pandemic.
When I arrived for my appointment, I followed the protocol required of me, which was all very dignified, I felt very safe.
My extraction went well, thank you Adam for your care and professonism. 🦷

Private patient, was given an appointment 2 hrs after calling, crown refitted, xrays taken and toothache checked all in half an hour. Cait a very professional and knowledgeable dentist took the time to explain in detail what happening in a very calm and reassuring atmosphere... Less expensive than I imagined and worth every penny.

Having a dentist who genuinely takes the time to listen and explain is reassuring and empowering. Thomas Bartley embodies an ethics of care that centres relationality, empathy, clinical excellence and a deeply human approach to dentistry. In a world where acceleration and efficiency often overshadow attentiveness, this kind of care is both rare and profoundly impactful. I am deeply grateful.

She explained what she was doing at every step. Honestly, if Carlsberg did dental hydiene... She's brilliant. I'm really not a fan of visiting the dentisst and often cleans can hurt. Not this time. I would have no hesitation in going again, but I'll definitely ask to see her again. Thanks!
