Lady from Bassett smiles confidently after having dental implants

A lady from Bassett came to White 2 years ago for a Free Consultation to discuss replacing her dentures and a couple of bridges. She was very self conscious about her smile and was very keen to focus on sorting her top teeth first. As she was very nervous we carried out her treatment under sedation, Dr White placed several implants on the upper and then fitted a bridge, she could finally lose her denture. She was so pleased with the results she very quickly wanted to start similar treatment on the lower to complete her new smile.


Team bonding day takes White staff out of their comfort zone!

White recently had a team building and moral boosting day and we did this by spending time away from the dental environment to get to know each other better and work as team. As a practice that prides itself on the care it gives to our nervous patients White decided it was time to take the staff out of their comfort zone for a day! All the staff attended Thorpe Park for a day and decided that it was time to embrace some scary rides and the day saw many of us experiencing thrills that we wouldn’t have dreamt of.

At White we feel it is essential that we work together as a team so that we can continue to maintain our helpful and friendly environment and reliable service for our patients. Despite being a small team we are always happy to welcome new patients into the practice.


Nervous North Baddesley lady regains confindence, receives gum treatment and new smile.

We recenlty received an email from a very nervous patient from North Baddesley explaining how self conscious she is about her smile and also the bad experiences she has had in the past. A reply was sent explaining how our team at White could help to rebuild her confidence and improve her smile. When she replied she explained how upsetting it was for her to write the initial email and how comforted she felt knowing we could help her, she also said “you sound too good to be true” but she was keen to meet us. We called her to discuss booking an appointment and after spending time on the phone with one of our friendly team members she felt ready to book a New Patient Consultation. We have started to re build her confidence and help her to overcome her fear of visiting the dentist.  After visiting White for the first time she felt relieved to have taken the first step and was very proud of herself. She was worried that she would need a lot of treatment but there wasn’t as much as she thought. She had some advanced gum problems and our therapist is working with her to help improve her gum health. We will then create a treatment plan for her which will include different cosmetic options of ways we can help her to smile again.

At White our friendly team are very experienced in dealing with nervous patients and are constantly helping patients to smile again.
