I put off having my teeth done for years as I was really nervous about it. It was my best friends wedding that gave me the courage to go ahead as I was the best man. I decided to go to Guidepost Dental Practice and the care I received was second to none. I would advise anyone to attend and not to be scared. As the treatment I received was not bad at all and the confidence I have now is great, just being able to smile, it’s fantastic. It was worth every penny. ![]()
Top marks to Guidepost Dental Practice for a caring, welcoming environment, obviously created by all grades of staff. A special tribute to Alan Forrest for a high standard of professionalism and workmanship.![]()
I am writing this as a thank you for the amazing work you have done on my teeth… Before I had my brace, I was extremely self conscious of my smile, but now after the treatment I'm full of confidence and cannot stop smiling. At first I was slightly nervous about getting my brace but after speaking to Richard and Katie I knew I had nothing to worry about. All in all I’m completely overwhelmed with the end result and I can’t thank you enough. ![]()
I would first of all like to say a huge thank you to you and all your staff at the practice for the treatment of my tooth at such short notice. The subsequent treatment and aftercare I have received has been fantastic. After many years of feeling nervous and frightened of “Going to the Dentist” due to a couple of bad experiences in the past I can honestly say because of the patience, kindness and professionalism of yourself and your nurses I am not afraid anymore. Many thanks and I look forward to my check up

Alan Forrest- AKA the Genius
I tried the rest and then found the best. How I wish I had come to see you in the first place. Thank you very much for making me the best dentures I’ve ever had. Thank you very much for all your help and patience ![]()
A big thank you for my beautiful new smile- I am delighted with the result. Well done Richard and Helen from the lab, and Holly the Little Gem Assistant who helped with the transformation. ![]()

Thanks is not enough to say!!! You’ve given me my confidence back. Oh yes and my smile.![]()
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the treatment I received from your practice – this could not have been bettered. Walking into the practice on my first visit for a consultation, I was struck by the warm welcome and excellent advice. The later extraction and of three teeth – never a prospect to look to with pleasure – was accomplished with a minimum of fuss, speed and no pain. I now feel that my dental care is in the most competent and, of equal importance, caring hands. Thank you ![]()
I was very pleased with the excellent care and quality treatment I received at Guidepost Dental Practice. I am now able to smile again with complete confidence. I would have no hesitation in recommending your clinic. A very happy customer.![]()
"Being of" a certain age I have over the years experienced both good and
bad dentistry, experience which often leave you feeling disappointed and
disinclined. However since joining your practice the treatment I have received has been outstanding. The practice has a very calming, courteous and friendly atmosphere, qualities which complement perfectly the first class professional services on offer. All stages of treatment are fully explained, Richard very patiently gives as much information as the patient require. The modern equipment, use of technology, skills and techniques used are way above anything I have experienced in the past. Richard and Holly have a fantastic working relationship they give a patient confidence and are reassuring at all stages, true professionalism. In my experience the attention to patient care does not stop with Richard and Holly, there is a real team effort and genuine all round willingness, all staff have been extremely helpful and very accommodating. My recent appointment with the Hygienist was the most thorough I hove ever had. The range and availability of appointments, the reminder calls, the after care calls, the professionalism, patience, attention to detail and wonderful personalities make this my absolute practice of choice. I would recommend Richard and his team to anyone, be they individuals parents wanting the best for their children or anyone of a nervous disposition, you will be in very safe hands.

I sat down at my computer
After another night of pain
Another day of misery
It was driving me insane
I found your ad
Staring up at me
And knew I had to email
For you to hear my plea
I told you of my plight
My woes of being scared
You called me on the phone
And I knew you cared
In the blink of an eye
I was back at your door
Id had some treatment
And I was back for more
Then the day came
That id get a new smile
From the man in the book
That went that extra mile
I didn’t sleep the night before
I couldn’t wait to be back at your door
Today is the day
I hide my smile no more
I now have my smile back
And my souls returned too.
There’s not enough words
Of how I thank you
So at the end of the day
If you cant take no more
Open the book
And go knock on the door
A heartfelt thank you to everyone at Guidepost Dental Practice
Can’t stop smiling

After attending other dental practices in the past, I now feel I have found a true home as far as my treatment goes. I am going through a difficult worrying time at the moment as regards to problems with my two dental bridges. Previous dental practices left me with no hope and limited advice on how to proceed and tackle my bridge problem which left me feeling flat. After meeting Richard, he gave me many more options and solutions which I never thought were possible, I had lost faith and feared the worst, but Richard talked me through the options openly. He has also been able to treat me using the best quality treatment and modern equipment while keeping the price sensible and affordable. His techniques during appointments are way above what I have been used to in the past and he explains everything in simple terms during the process and keeps the patient updated constantly. Not forgetting the staff and the dental assistants who come over very relaxed and friendly which makes me feel at home and not in a dental waiting room as such.![]()
I could think of much better things to do than visit the dentist with a troublesome molar knowing the critter needs to be extracted.
I was most impressed by the welcoming environment and staff who greeted me at Mr. Fretwell’s practice. The reception area is clean and tidy and does not resemble the childhood memories of waiting in the dentists! The staff are cheerful, helpful, welcoming and professional. All this put me at ease before the tooth got it.
These molars are supposed to be stubborn and difficult to remove, however I have had longer check ups. The tooth was removed with pain free ease
I have since returned and had a specialist gum shied moulded by Mr. Fretwell that is not only perfect but is the talk of the fight club I run
I could not recommend Mr. Fretwell more highly.
