I have been going to A1 Dental for seven years now. I see a wonderful dentist, Tristan who is a great communicator and gives excellent injections and discusses the treatment plan thoroughly. I could not recommend him highly enough.

I was seen by Dr Sherief. He was very thorough. His advice has saved me from a trip to a implant clinic. I value his advice. He seems to be very experienced.

I cannot thank the team enough for helping me out today. Kylieโs compassion and quick response was beyond amazing, she got me in to see the dentist within minutes and helped me set up a payment plan which no other place I tried would accommodate. Dr Mustafa was so kind, patient and gentle and if I ever need another tooth pulled I will definitely be going to him again. I cannot put into words how grateful I am of Kylie and Dr Mustafa today. 10000000% recommend for any dental needs!!!
