It was really good when I first got braces I didn’t know if they would look good but once I had them I was so happy the journey of having them was super fun and painless when they got off my teeth where super straight and everything that I wanted the staff always treated me with kindness and respect and helped me along with anything questions or problems I had with my braces and the before questions and after questions

Mike was amazing - I can’t give him enough stars, 5 is too little. He worked miracles with my teeth and smile and gave me so much confidence. Even when I moved cities and traveled back and forth for 2 years it was all worth it in the end. The whole team are so pleasant and I highly recommend them!

My Daughter has had braces for the past couple of years, just over. Her experience has been great and your team have looked after her the whole way through. She’s now had her braces removed and is very happy with the results. Would definitely recommend you!

My son had a very good experience here with friendly staff and good treatment. Only issue is that it gets quite booked up so there is little flexibility about appointment times if you can’t make the original time.

My daughter has had a very good experience here. Mike is great and Annabel is absolutely amazing! She's so friendly and puts you at ease, explains everything and just makes you feel so welcome. My daughter has just had her braces off and the results are brilliant 🎉 She's not stopped smiling since! We're actually sad we won't be coming to see Annabel anymore 🤣

Very happy to the amazing, professional staff and the service. My daughter had her braces put on 18 months ago, and she has just had them removed. It was a very good experience for her because the staff made it easy and she came out with a beautiful smile! Thank you to All the Portman clinic Staff.

This is a busy city centre dental practice but they are always friendly, always professional and always seem to go the extra mile to help, even for NHS patients. My sons have both been referred here for orthodontic treatment and both times we have had very caring, kind dental technicians and orthodontists. Thank you for making us always feel welcome. Like all practices they sometimes are short staffed, it can be hard to get through on the phone but they are always respectful and explain the situation rather than just keeping you waiting in the dark, never sure if you are going to be seen soon.

My daughter got her braces off today, just over a year after getting them fitted. Her teeth look amazing! The staff at Portman Smile have been great, really good at explaining what’s happening and what progress has been made, and very patient when she was making decisions on what colour of bands to go with! They’re very busy and hard to get through to on the phone so it’s best to avoid having to change appointments but when you’re there in person they couldn’t be more helpful.

Really great care and service. Alongside the teenage attitude my son suffers with social anxiety but Cara always dealt with him with kindness and patience. We are hugely appreciative of her compassionate approach, he even managed to smile at his last few appointments!
