Theo and the team at Thorndon were great. Went in for a check-up. X-rays revealed a cavity in one of my remaining wisdom teeth. Recommendation was to remove the tooth. Didn't need to make another appointment, Theo removed it straight away. Was a little uncomfortable but no real pain. Price was reasonable too. Highly recommended.

I got a cleaning from Josiah today and he did such a good job. I'm a dedicated tea drinker and had a lot of staining and my teeth looked nearly brand new when he was done.

Had a great general experience with Dr Theo Kay. He's very calm and gentle. I'm giving 4 stars just because we could have waited another 10-15min for the anaesthetic to better do its wonder, before the extraction.

I am extremely happy with my smile thanks to Melissa. She knew exactly what I was after and executed it perfectly. I felt very cared for by Melissa and her assistant, they made sure I was happy and really took the time to make sure I understood what they were doing. I wonโ€™t be going anywhere else now and have full trust in Capital Dental Thorndon. The price was also very very good! Again, thank you so much. I canโ€™t stop smiling!!

Service from the hygienist was fantastic, she found things that others had missed and sorted it all out. A little pricey but worth it for the health of your teeth and gums.

Got recommended to go to Capital Dental by my boyfriend, who had a good experience with them. I had to cancel my hygienist appointment since I realized Iโ€™m having a cold, and Iโ€™d just got my Covid testing done. I spoke to the receptionist to cancel the appointment which is tomorrow(although it is within 24hrs). The receptionist informed me that this will incur a charge of $50 dollars, and she did not change her mind even after I told her my situation. Not happy, donโ€™t think the outcome is fair and wonโ€™t come again.

I've been going to Theo and the team at Thorndon for a few years now and they have been great. I've had a variety of work done and they have been very thorough and professional and have explained every detail and discussed every option available. I credit my regular appointments with them to the lower overall costs I now experience with my dental care. I am happy to recommend them to anyone looking for a new dental team.

Everyone is really friendly, Melissa takes time to explain everything and answer all questions fully, she also listens well and is reassuring. Having previously had bad experiences with other dentists and clinics, I feel very comfortable coming here and am very thankful for this. I would definitely recommend Capital Dental Thorndon.
