My family have been going to see Chris and Janet for over 2 years now, I had a new composite filling which is still in good condition. Preventative dentistry is really important, and the team ensure I am doing all the right things to prevent any major problems. Thank you.

Chris and all the team are first class. I'd recommend Ibbott & Co to anyone looking for friendly, professional service and kindness - especially valuable to those of us who are a little "nervous" about our trips to the dentist. Special mention to the reception team - they are all outstanding!

She is incredibly professional and thorough. She takes the time to explain everything and always ensures I’m comfortable throughout.The reception staff are lovely, efficient, and always happy to help with booking or rescheduling appointments.It’s clear that everyone at Ibbott and Co takes pride in creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere while providing excellent care - truly a 5* dentist!

I’ve been seeing Chris, Janet and their team for many years, and I can’t recommend them enough. From routine check-ups and cleanings to helping with wisdom teeth issues and fillings, they’ve consistently provided outstanding care. Chris and Janet are both professional, friendly, and always go above and beyond for their patients. They genuinely care about your comfort and well-being, and I’ve always felt completely at ease with their approach.When I had issues with my wisdom teeth, they referred me to the hospital for removal and a coronectomy. Throughout the entire process, Chris and Janet were just a phone call away every step of the way, providing guidance and reassurance. One particular moment that really stood out was when I was concerned my stitches had come out after the procedure. Janet went out of her way to squeeze me in last minute to check everything was healing properly. She reassured me and made sure I felt confident in my recovery, which really helped ease my worries.When I booked my first appointment I was nervous about going to the dentist, especially after not having been for many years and my teeth not being in the best condition, they were incredibly supportive and non-judgmental. They took the time to explain everything, listen to my concerns, and offer helpful advice. I’ve seen such an improvement in my dental health over the years since the first appointment.The office is modern, clean, and welcoming, which makes every visit comfortable. Most importantly, I no longer feel anxious about going to the dentist because I trust them completely. I always leave feeling reassured and confident in my care. I would highly recommend Chris, Janet and the team to anyone, especially those who are a bit nervous about dental visits. You’ll be in great hands!

I’ve been going to Ibbott & Co for many years, and I can’t say enough good things about them. The entire team is friendly, professional, and truly exceptional in their service. They go beyond the usual checkup by carefully examining your lips, tongue, cheeks, and neck for any signs of cancer or other concerns. I also completed an Invisalign treatment with Chris, and I couldn’t be happier with the results—I love my smile now!

I’ve just moved to the area so have only visited once, but I was so impressed with the service here. I had childcare issues on the day of my appointment and everyone was extremely accomplished and helpful- I managed to have and complete my appointment with the children there. Very considerate, thoughtful and thorough. Very pleased I joined this practise.

Chris and the team at Ibbott & Co are amazing. I was always conscious of my front teeth which were crooked and crossed over along with a variety of other dental problems. I also suffer with very sensitive nerves so was a bit anxious about having any work done but Chris made me feel totally at ease and I can honestly say - it was an almost painless experience having extensive dental work done to my upper jaw. I cannot thank the team enough for giving me my smile and confidence back and for looking after me. At least once a week someone tells me I’ve got amazing teeth - so thank you Ibbott & Co!!

Very thorough and knowledgeable. Dr Jenny was very pleasant and the surgery is amazingly high-tech. Probably the most technologically advanced dental practice I’ve ever visited, and the range of services offered with confidence and expertise is amazing. A great experience - highly recommended.

Chris has been looking after my teeth extremely well ever since he took over the practice. He is a very good dentist. I would highly recommend him to anyone searching for a dental surgeon in the Wadhurst area.

Chris, Victoria and the team are always polite, smiling and professional. The health of my teeth has improved considerably since I started seeing them. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Practice.

Thanks Chris, Sharon & Billie for all your care and attention and helping me decide and giving me the confidence to go ahead with replacing my veneers. Not forgetting the girls on reception who greet everyone with a lovely smile even when they are on the telephone they acknowledge you coming through the door and make you feel very relaxed. Hazel

Chris and team are great. They communicate clearly about what work needs to be done. It’s a very professional and reassuring environment with great front of house. The hygienist and team are also the best I’ve had. Highly recommend

I have recently had composite bonding treatment with Chris. Can only say that I am absolutely thrilled with the results. Chris takes so much time and care to make it perfect. My appointment was for 3 hours which is daunting under any circumstances but was made so much easier whilst having a television to watch your favourite programmes. I look at it as a little lay down lol. Thank you Chris and Sharon who is his brilliant dental assistant ! xx

Chris and the team here are truly fantastic!From the moment I made a telephone enquiry (thanks Yasmin) I felt that I was in caring, professional hands. After a preliminary discussion with the wonderful Billie (treatment co-ordinator), and a comprehensive assessment with Chris, he then carried out cosmetic bonding on 3 teeth which completely smoothed 2 chipped teeth and hid 1 black triangle.Chris also removed white spot lesion on a front tooth which had begun to cause me some social anxiety. I am thrilled with the results and cannot thank Ibbott & Co enough.Throughout the process they listened to me, answered lots of questions, and gave me all the time I needed to ensure we achieved the right results.Prior to finding Chris, I had met 3 other dentists (for the same same enquiry) but did not get the right vibe or feeling of care from them. I was more than happy to complete a 60 mile round journey to visit Ibbott & Co for each appointment. That's how highly I rate them!Thoroughly recommend and would never think of going elsewhere should I require dentistry expertise again.

Victoria is amazing! Having had a previous bad experience with another dental surgery. She understood my anxiety and put me at ease. Her chair side manner was reassuring and she was very gentle when delivering the anaesthetic. Highly recommend

Chris' dental work is very high quality. He first treated my husband and I over ten years ago, and we are still delighted with the results. He also treated me recently for a different dental issue, and again, his work was fantastic. Chris and his team are brilliant, and I couldn't fault the care they give.

Chris and his team are friendly and extremely professional. I have been very pleased with the Invisalign straightening as a means to stem future gum erosion. He has also replaced some of my ancient fillings. Chris has been hugely supportive and the practice makes use of the latest technology. Victoria is an amazing hygienist and is so helpful. Thank you to the team for such expert care

I completed by Invisalign treatment with Ibbott & Co.. 5* service all the way through, Chris and the team super professional and knowledgeable. I'd been umming and ahhing about getting my teeth straightened but so pleased I did, feel so much more confident and get lots of compliments. Chris ensures everything is 100% and whilst the treatment is expensive it is 100% worth it.

Tom Bourne

After years of visiting the same dentist and watching my teeth slowly go downhill, I made the switch to Ibbot & Co and haven’t looked back. Chris and the team have been superb, thoroughly professional and are clearly excellent in practice. It’s been a little transformative knowing that I have someone I trust completely advising me fairly and keeping an eye on things. Highly recommended.

I did my Invisalign treatment in the wadhurst branch and had a lovely experience! Helpful staff, friendly and professional, I was very happy with the results! If you are thinking about straightening your teeth - do it! It’s a worthy investment.

Ibbott&Co dental clinic came very highly recommended and rightly so. From the start the service has been superb The warm welcome from the reception team has been followed up with unwavering efficiency. The dental service, personalised planning and monitoring of cosmetic procedures with Dr Chris Ibbott has been world class. There is state of the art digital technology and scanning facilities on site. You can be reassured that any work carried out for the clinic (eg removable braces, crowns) are carefully monitored to ensure you get the best result possible. The dental clinic is supported by excellent treatment co-ordinators to explain and answer any questions along the way and importantly, the effective hygienist team are the best I have ever encountered. I am thrilled with my results and am so delighted I was able to achieve what I wanted, thanks to the brilliant Ibbott & Co team.

Dentistry has been transformed over my lifetime and doesn't warrant the fearful reputation it once had. Today, what distinguishes one dental practice from another is not just the expertise of those at the clinic but their warmth and friendliness. Janet and her colleagues are a brilliant team who are dedicated to patient care and wellbeing. Who would have thought a visit to the dentist would be so enjoyable!

I've just finished invisalign straightening and bonding with Chris and I'm so pleased with the results. I am not sure why I didn't do this years ago as it has improved my confidence so much. I no longer cover my smile with my hand or cringe at photos which have caught me smiling with my mouth open! Brilliant service and I felt very well looked after for the entire duration!

John Weller

I am extremely happy with the expertise and quality of work evident during my recent visit to Ibbott and Co Dental Clinic. The replacement filling I had looks great and I felt no pain whatsoever during the procedure or since, I'm pleased to say. Chris and his team exude pure professionalism and I can recommend their dental service without hesitation.

Martin Beesley

06:39 21 Jun 23

I was always very conscious of my teeth and like many people held back my smile as a result, and my fear of dentists and the thought of long painful appointments meant I did nothing about it. After talking through my options with Chris I finally felt confident enough to do something about it - I’m so glad I did. The results are great and exactly what I wanted. My own natural looking teeth are back along with my confident smile - Chris is an amazing dentist and I recommend anyone in the same position to go and talk to him - worth every Penny 😁

Jasmine MacLeod

I had my first appointment with Janet today and she is fantastic! All the staff at Ibbott & Co are so friendly and caring. The best, most reassuring experience I have had at a dentist and I feel in safe hands. Thank you!

Linda Parry

I joined Ibbott & Co in January with a view to changing my 2 front crowns which I'd had for over 15 years. After a thorough examination and an in depth consultation with Chris, we decided to change the crowns, and also add 2 veneers and some bonded resin to enhance my smile.I'm over the moon with the final result! I now have a smile to be proud of and I'm so pleased I started my journey with Chris. He has an eye for detail and is a true perfectionist!I would recommend him 100% and the fact that most of my friends already use Ibbott speaks volumes.

Charlotte White

So pleased with my experience so far. Had a few complications because my teeth have been so difficult, but it got resolved so quickly, and the options I got given to work around what I thought would be impossible were outstanding. I am nearly at the end of my treatment (invisilign, whitening and bonding) and I cannot wait for my final result. I was on a time limit for my wedding and only had 7 months. I am 3 months away from my wedding and we are nearly finished. All staff are amazing, polite and helpful.
