What Our Patients' Say

I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of my bonding

I had an incredibly positive experience with Mark and couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of my bonding. Mark is extremely personable and took real care in explaining all parts of the process to me clearly. He successfully achieved cosmetic bonding that looks natural and impressive. I couldn't recommend his work more highly.

Chris Composite Bonding

Undoubtedly the best dentist in London!

I recently had my teeth whitened, with an easy at-home kit, followed by composite bonding to my front six teeth by Mark. The results are incredible and I couldn't be happier. In just 6 weeks since my initial consultation I can't believe how amazing my teeth look and I've had nothing but compliments on my smile since they were done. After years of being unhappy with my teeth, I only wish I'd have done this sooner. Not only is the the whole experience is pain free, the chair is super comfy and the staff couldn't make you feel more welcome. The space itself is beautiful and calming, you actually want to just stick around spend more time there. If you're unhappy with your smile then look no further, head to The Modern Dentist and a pay Mark a visit.

I was genuinely amazed at the result of the composite bonding work

I have now had a couple of appointments with Mark and his team at The Modern Dentist. The Practice is conveniently situated five minutes’ walk from Old Street station.  It is clean, has a calming atmosphere and feels different to other dentists that I’ve been to. The décor, furnishings and smell (subtle essential oils via a diffuser) work together to provide a completely different experience. The reception staff have all been extremely caring, friendly and have immediately made me feel very welcome. The treatment I had included teeth whitening and composite bonding.  Mark was incredibly professional, clearly explained the processes and advised what I needed to do get the best results from his work.  A digital scan was taken of my teeth and that was used to make the whitening trays.  This ensured that the trays fitted correctly and were comfortable to wear.  It also meant that the whitening gel remained on the teeth (as the trays fitted snuggly).  My teeth are cleaner and whiter but importantly, appear natural. I was genuinely amazed at the result of the composite bonding work.  The process was minimally invasive and restored the shape of my front teeth.  In my opinion the process is a dental art form and I am extremely pleased with the result.  It has definitely enhanced my smile. Overall, I am very pleased with the treatment that I had.  I have never experienced a Practice like The Modern Dentist before and cannot rate them highly enough.  Everyone was welcoming and genuinely invested in making my visits as easy as possible.

My teeth whitening treatment and composite bonding has left me feeling confident and proud to smile at every opportunity

I would highly recommend Mark and The Modern Dentist to anyone considering improving their smile. My teeth whitening treatment and composite bonding has left me feeling confident and proud to smile at every opportunity - something I was very conscious of doing beforehand! Really pleased with the final result and the friendly and informative support provided by Mark throughout.

My smile gets bigger and bigger!

I used to really hate everything about my teeth. So I took the plunge about a year ago and got Invisalign and I've been obsessed with the progress since then. Week over week, month over month, they just get straighter and straighter and my smile gets bigger and bigger! It's been really easy and really enjoyable. Up next I'm doing whitening and I can't wait to finish the process.

Composite bonding testimonial - The Modern Dentist - Mark Farrant

I waited a long time to get the teeth I've always wanted - and now I feel like I finally have them!

I could not be happier with my experience at The Modern Dentist! From my initial consultation to the last appointment, Dr Mark Flynn and his team were superb. So friendly and warm, making every appointment a pleasure. My treatments consisted of a teeth whitening course as well as much needed composite bonding to repair the bad work a previous dentist had performed. My smile has well and truly transformed. A fantastic natural finish that I’m so happy with. I now smile more and feel so much more confident within myself and that’s all down to Mark and the team. I will be sending all of my friends there! Thank you!

Mark Composite Bonding

I was worried about it looking too flashy and fake but it looks completely natural

I recently had composite bonding on my four front teeth to correct general tooth wear and chipping. I could not be happier with the result. I was worried about it looking too flashy and fake but it looks completely natural and has corrected what was a growing problem for me. I am a total dentist scaredy-cat, but I have been going to Mark for around ten years now; he and his team are professional yet personal, and have always put me at ease during the various procedures I have needed. This was my first voluntary one, and I just wish I had had it done sooner!

It makes such a difference to how you feel and it just makes you want to smile!

The whole experience of The Modern Dentist made me feel at ease and comfortable; the space is beautiful and relaxing and the reception staff are really friendly and professional. I went for a general check up, as well as at home whitening treatment and composite bonding - Mark and his team were brilliant! They took such care in looking after me, explaining everything they were doing so I understood, and I'm so happy with the results of my smile!

Ruth Composite Bonding

What Others Say About The Modern Dentist

Never seen such an amazing dentist before. It's so modern and friendly. And the equipment is just insane. Great location too, right next to Old Street tube.

Kai Schomann

Brilliant new practice with Mark and his team. Inspired fit out and decor.

Terence Macey

Mark has been my dentist for many years. His new practice is amazing. Highly recommend it.

Derek Elliott

Mark is an incredibly good dentist. Now with a great new team in a lovely space.

Neil Dryden

Brilliant new practice with a really cool vibe, which is not a phrase I thought I'd be using of a dentist! I followed Mark here from his previous practice - he's highly skilled both in his work and in putting you at ease. Also, I've never seen two people more excited about new dentistry tools as Mark and hygienist Nick. Strongly recommend!

Hannah Whittingham

I've been seeing Mark at his previous practice for years and I'd highly recommend him. Actually, that doesn't do him justice. Mark is an excellent dentist and has a holistic approach, which is a rarity. He sorted out a complicated root canal issue for good (where previous dentists had failed) and I completely trust his advice. Over the years I've had quite a bit of work done to the highest standard. Mark is relaxed, approachable, reassuring and most importantly, he only recommends intervention where absolutely necessary. He's the best!

Josephine Wong

Having avoided going to the dentist for (many) years, I can't believe I'm saying this but I really enjoyed my appointment with Nick and Mark! They were both so thoughtful, explaining everything clearly and taking extra time and care. The environment, music and positivity has completely reset my perception of the dentist. Highly recommend and looking forward to coming back.

Tom Flint

I’ve been a patient of Mark and Nick for 8 years. Individually, they are exceptional and consummate healthcare professionals; as a team, they are unique and complement each other’s skills and expertise perfectly. I’m so grateful I’ll be able to witness the growth of this new venture in the beautiful new premises in Old Street. They are, respectively, a brilliant dentist and a brilliant hygienist, and, with Sammi's warm greeting at reception, it’s like visiting dear friends.

Connor Nevard

I have been a patient of Mark's for several years and count myself very lucky to have found such a wonderful dentist - it was an absolute no-brainer to follow him to his new practice. Nick is a first rate hygienist too, what a brilliant team! Fantastic new premises too, wow.

David C

Fantastic new premises as expected! Ive been seeing both Mark and Nick (dental hygienist) for many years and would most definately recommend them both. My last visit was for composite fillings between the tooth and and the gum where I had over brushed and though no one would see it, they had become discoloured and not great looking. Also the front two teeth were ever so slightly levelled. Three hours in the chair with Mark working away, it was painless and I have to say I nodded twice, The end result feel fantastic, look fantastic and so glad I had them done.

Mark Farrant

I have known Dr. Mark Flynn for many years now. He has been my dentist for most of these years. As a (recently retired) dentist myself, and a colleague with whom he has worked, I know first hand that treating a fellow dentist is always a challenge. I have overwhelming confidence in Mark. He is, as his practice name indicates, a modern dentist....very highly trained, a strident advocate of minimally invasive cutting edge dentistry, and a compassionate, engaging practitioner. I have recommended him to very many of my former patients. Recently he has completed a course of dental implant work in my own mouth, which has gone perfectly, and in total comfort. His practice is stunning. Spacious, bright, unintimidating and bristling with up to date dental kit. Now that he has Nick Hodgetts ( one of his dental hygienists with whom I have also worked), they make an unbeatable team. I wish them and the Modern Dentist every success. Many thanks.

I had my wisdom teeth removed last week and needed to get my stitches out. I was experiencing terrible pain and was worried about a dry socket. While on a business trip in London, I called several dentists, but many told me they weren’t taking new patients or offered appointments far in the future. Dr. Mark and his team at this praxis were amazing. They took my emergency appointment over the phone, and I secured an appointment only an hour later. The price was very reasonable considering the situation. Dr. Mark made sure to sanitize and disinfect the area thoroughly. He also addressed my other concerns, especially regarding some recent dental work I had done, and put my mind at ease. I’ve been on painkillers every day for the past month, but I can confidently say it has been over 24 hours since I last took any ibuprofen! Thank you so much, Dr. Mark and team!

John Audi

Visiting from the US. Recently had poorly fillings done (stateside) and Modern Dentist figured it out, fixed my teeth, and tested them a bunch of different ways they don’t do in the US. Highly reccomend will be changing dentists when I get home that’s for sure.

Jonathan West

Mark and the team were incredible. I was travelling to London and my molar inlay fell out. Mark's team fitted me in to the surgery the next day, proceeded with a temporary filling enabling me to continue on with my trip as planned. After visiting them, I actually decided to have the tooth repaired in full whilst in London and they organised an appointment for an onlay prep and sped up the lab for me in order to fit the new onlay before I left London. Thankyou to you all for making what could have been a traumatic and stressful experience very seamless, and for doing everything you could to make the procedure happen whilst on holidays. I appreciate you all!

Blair Cooper

I cannot recommend Dr. Mark and his team highly enough! From the moment I walked into the clinic, I was impressed by the modern and impeccably clean environment. It's clear that patient comfort and hygiene are top priorities here. Dr. Mark's exceptional care and dedication truly set him apart. He genuinely cares about his patients and always takes the time to explain the best treatment options in a way that's easy to understand. This personalised approach made me feel confident and well-informed about my dental health. The clinic's state-of-the-art facilities and Dr. Mark's expertise ensure a top-notch experience every visit. If you're looking for a dentist who combines skill, care, and a welcoming atmosphere, Dr. Mark is the best choice!
