We understand that a trip to the dentist can be stressful for some, perhaps bringing back memories of old school dentistry that frankly, we’d all rather forget. We’re always sad but never surprised to hear how many people suffer with painful toothache rather than getting the help they really need. Sound familiar? We want to help you and can reassure you that we do everything in our power to make your visit as comfortable, stress free and pain free* as possible. 

The entire team at Hampshire Dentists are trained in the latest pain free* dental techniques to ensure your visit is as comfortable as possible. We recognise that the first step is often the biggest one so we’re happy to go at your pace whether your first visit is simply coming through the door, having a cup of tea with one of the team or actually sitting in the dental chair to have treatment. We get that some people dislike the smell or the sound of the dentist as well so we use soothing music – or music of your choice and have Jo Malone scents to avoid the dentist smell. Furthermore, we listen with compassion, we never ever judge and will offer sensible, suitable solutions to get you out of pain and back on track to good dental health.

We’re used to working with patients with dental anxiety all the time – you can relax, you’ll be in great hands with us.

“You were so kind, tolerant and gentle”

We don’t just say pain free, we measure it and we mean it….

We couldn’t be happier that, like Pip, so many of our patients are “no longer scared of going to the dentist.”  We’re thrilled that our practice has grown mainly through word of mouth and by reviews on social media but to ensure that all voices are being heard, we ask our patients to fill in a questionnaire anonymously about their experience in the chair with us. We use this feedback to monitor, review and continually improve our performance for your confidence and reassurance. We’re delighted that at present, 99% of patients said our treatment was pain free. *

I have been very under-confident and unhappy with my smile my entire adult life and so chose Rob at Hampshire dentists to finally fix the issues I had. I had composite bonding in the past on my upper teeth that had picked up a lot of staining and was uneven, my bottom teeth also needed to be straightened. I had a fixed white brace on my bottom teeth, whitening and 8 composites fitted to my front upper teeth. Every single appointment I attended during my treatment I was made to feel at ease by all the staff, they are always so friendly and accommodating. All of the appointments were totally pain free, including the fitting of the composite bonding - I had local anaesthetic and was not even aware that it had been injected! The finish on the composite is perfect, my teeth have been completely transformed and I do not believe I would have had as good a result at another dentist. I am finally happy with my teeth which is words I'd never thought I'd say. Thank you so much Rob & all the staff at Hampshire Dentists.

Gemma Robb

Wonderful treatment totally pain free and very clear treatment plan which was explained every step of the journey to a new set of teeth. I would recommend Dr Hannah to anybody.

angela Hope-Murray

I hadn't been to the dentist for years because it hurt so much. Natalie and Nicky on reception were so lovely and really went above and beyond my expectations, the best receptionists ever with a caring and can do attitude. All the staff are lovely and it was pain free.

Donna Cowan

I have just had cosmetic bonding on my four front teeth as I dinked the front tooth a couple of years ago and it has bothered me ever since! After a consultation exploring all the options I decided to go for the cosmetic bonding method which was a reasonably priced, painless and a one session tidy up! I am really happy with the results! Thank you David! Before and after photo

Natalie Bundle

5 star review for this dentist but specifically for emma the hygienist. I had an appointment today and am always nervous due to sensitive teeth and was put at ease immediately and my teeth have never felt so clean. Superb job.

Jackie Spencer

Cannot recommend this amazing dentist enough! Super friendly and when they say pain free they mean pain free. For someone who is normally a little anxious about the dentist I feel completely relaxed when I go for my appointments. I have been to dentists before that just throw a load of words at me that I dont really understand where as here they really explain everything to you and I always feel confidence in what they all tell me. Honestly you wont regret choosing this place 🙂

Paisley Thomson

Brilliant dentist surgery, I've had a filling, extraction and an implant done here, as well as a hygienist appointment and I can't recommend them enough. Truly pain free experience, too. All staff very friendly.

Anna Wyeth

The best dentist. Have had some work done recently and it was completely painless. I feel so relaxed and at ease in there which is big for me as I’m not particularly a fan of the dentist. Everyone is so lovely and Marius is incredible (I’m sure they all are but have only had him). Highly recommend

Paisley Kerry

Fantastic patient care delivered by true professionals! I have just finished a course of treatment for the worst tooth ache I ever experienced; it was literally tear inducing. From start to finish Robin Hanna and his team were incredible. I felt completely relaxed, safe and well informed throughout the successful treatment. I left completely pain free on my first visit and was brilliantly looked after during the two required follow up appointments. I can not recommend this team enough... If you have teeth and live in Hampshire, then this is the place you should take them. Thank you so much!

antony hill

I can’t recommend this place enough.I had 3 appointments this month (1 every week). I chose this dentist from the good reviews and the reviews weren’t lying! Such friendly and kind staff. I felt no pain on any of my appointments, went very quickly. 100% recommend. Weirdly excited for my next appointment in October haha!

Chloe Barton

I had an appointment today with Dr. Marius it was superb and painless. He is very Professional . I have booked another appointment with Dr Rob . They take good care of me and it’s worth every penny . They are covid safe too . Thank you to the whole team .

Elizabeth Njeru

Just wanted to say thanks to Rob and the team at Hampshire Dentists. It was such a good experience; from the courtesy call in advance and warm welcome on arrival, to the relaxed atmosphere (and pain free experience!) in the surgery. Thanks for going the extra mile. If Carlsberg did dentists...!

Craig Edmondson

I honestly cannot rate Hampshire Dentists highly enough. Everyone is so genuinely caring, understanding and very smiley , always taking the time to explain treatment options with no judgement or pressure. I have recently had braces fitted and instead of feeling nervous and apprehensive everyone involved has just made me feel excited and keen to get started. I trust them entirely and would recommend them to everyone.

Kiera Legg

I would like to give my heartfelt thanks and gratitude to the amazing, warm-hearted team at Hampshire dentists. Needing an emergency appointment whilst 100 miles from home and caring for a very poorly child in intensive care I phoned up and explained my situation. From the start they did everything to accommodate me and found me a slot within a couple of hours despite being incredibly busy. I was treated with such care, gentleness and compassion by Robin during my visit, a true calling. His kindness went way beyond the call of duty and I will always feel indebted to him and his wonderful team. If I didn't live so far away this would be the dentist of my choice who I would recommend to everyone

debbie gray

We have used this practice many times. We have always had excellent care and attention. My little boy who is 6 has had some problems with his teeth, rob has always seen him very promptly and sorted everything out. My little boy actually thinks its great fun and is not remotely scared about going. They are all so kind.I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone. Its the best dentist our family has ever been to for adults and kids.

Sarah Lewis

I had had a long series of awful dental experiences, which left me a really nervous patient. Right from the the minute I stepped through the door, the HD team were friendly and professional. At my first appointment, Dr Rob Hannah was calming, patient and completely non-judgemental, even though I spent a lot of the time in tears! I was provided with a comprehensive treatment plan, with absolutely no pressure to have anything done. I did proceed with my treatment, and I haven't looked back. Every visit has eased my nerves a little more. The whole team make you feel welcome and the environment is always spotless and calm. Rob and the wonderful Barbra work hard to put me at ease, and nothing feels too much trouble. I cannot recommend this dental treatment centre enough. Thank you so much Rob, Barbs and the team. This really is 'Pain Free Dentistry' at its best.

Clare Niker

If i could give Hampshire Dentist 10 Stars i would!!I am a huge nervous wreck when it comes to the dentists, Dr. Hanna & Daniella and the team were so incredibly friendly, calming and put me right at ease from the moment i stepped in, they were super thorough and will be working out a plan for my treatment going forward.I have today had an appointment with Charlotte the Hygienist, i was extremely nervous again as heard this can be bit a painful, however i did not feel a thing, put me at so much ease ready for my next journey & appointments.I can honestly say i have found the best Dentist team ever and cant wait to finally not worry about attending my appointments!AAAAA****** Service!

Kerry Guy

This was my first time with Hampshire Dentists and it was an emergency appointment. I was assessed and given an appointment straight away. Fantastic service from all the team including the receptionist, dental nurses and Rob the dentist. The whole assessment and procedure was completely pain free despite being in a lot of pain before the appointment. Rob was incredibly gentle and explained everything as it happened. Definitely moving the whole family to this practice. Definitely 5/5

Mairead Mulhall

I am someone who has always been very anxious and feared visits to the dentist since i was a child. I suffered from a bad toothache and made an emergency appointment with Hampshire dentist. This has truly been the best choice I had ever made. From my very first appointment to the last day of my treatment for a root canal I cannot explain in words how my experience has been. Hampshire dentist keep to their promise of treating their patients with courtesy and respect. With calm and caring staff always making sure they give you the best care.Marius has been amazing throughout my treatment, explaining carefully and making sure I felt calm during all appointments. The staff and the lovely receptionists always greeted me with a smile and made me feel relaxed as soon as I walked in. If you are an anxious person like myself then Hampshire dentist is where you need to come to. For the first time in my life I am looking forward to my next check up!

Rebecca Rahman

After months of misery (not being able to see my normal dentist) these ladies and gentleman had my issues sorted within no time at all. So professional, friendly, caring and pain free treatment. Absolutely amazing service. Thank you for making me happy again.

Becky Keable

The whole staff are amazing! Very reassuring to nervous patients and they obviously love working there. The actual dentist Marius was wonderful, he spoke with calmness and explained every single detail of the examination. I am very happy to have this dental practice 5 stars.

Caroline Diggins

An excellent practice with a friendly and professional team that were amazing with the removal of my seven year old daughter’s tooth.From the moment we arrived the friendly reception staff made my little girl feel welcome and at ease.The practice itself is a well organised, bright, clean, calm environment.The treatment carried out by Rob was excellent. Knowing that my daughter was a little nervous he was very reassuring and unhurried and definitely made what could have been quite a stressful situation a very positive experience.Thank you, I would definitely recommend!!

hermione fan

I've been a patient at Hampshire Dentists for several years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Treatment is pain free, Rob and his team are very caring and welcoming, treatment plans are discussed and explained.

June Davis

Rob has been great throughout my assessment and treatment for a new crown fitting. I am a anxious client and he made everything simple and pain free, it was amazing. He gave me lots of time to consider my options and costs.I feel very happy and would certainly recommend Rob and his team, in fact my partner is looking into switching his dentist to Rob.

Jacqueline Convey

Rob is a fantastic dentist, I always feel very comfortable whenever I visit him. Always provides clear explanations and a calm, relaxed environment - no feeling of being rushed. The nurses are great too. The reception team are always very helpful and welcoming. Charlotte is a great hygienist, always does a great job and is very gentle too. I couldn’t recommend Hampshire Dentist enough. If you’re a little anxious about going to the dentist, then Hampshire Dentists is definitely worth considering.

Ash Andrews

I have now visited Hampshire Dentists a few times, and I'll be going back. Like many people, I have been going to an NHS dentist my whole life because of the costs that are associated with private treatment. However, you pay for what you get. There has been a lot of "don't worry about it" or "we'll wait and see if it gets worse" which hasn't given me much encouragement in the past and made me terrified of going even for a single check-up. That wasn't the case when I visited Dr Robin Hanna. I felt calm and at ease for the whole process, and any small signs of issues are addressed from the moment they are spotted. Dr Hanna always said to me that it's better to address anything before it gets worse, which in the long term will end up saving me money. One of my filling on my front K9 has had some severe staining due to the time it's been there, and Dr Hanna has managed to fix it and make it look natural and new again. All done without numbing, and I have to say I didn't feel a thing. Reading this back I'm shocked myself, and I know that it sounds too good to be true, but as someone terrified of the dentist I want to make it known that this will change your attitude completely. I know that costs can be daunting; however, a white filling is cheaper than when I had to pay my NHS dentist for it.The care provided by Dr Hanna and his excellent staff is something else, it never feels rushed or focused on how much money they can make of you, the focus has always been on the best care that can be provided to you. If you're uncertain (like I was), you can book in a complimentary consultation which will make you realise that this review if very much genuine and you'll be walking out of the dentist chair smiling and confident.

Jakub Frebel

Had an emergency appointment today after having months of pain with my tooth. I was so nervous but all of the staff were amazing! Especially the dentist, after having treatment I feel 100% better. The whole experience was absolutely pain free and the staff were so nice. Definitely will recommend to everyone! Can’t rate this dentist enough.

Kellie Mason

Having avoided going to the dentist for the past 2 years and then making it one of my New Years resolutions, I was persuaded by the many recommendations of friends to book in with Robin Hanna. I made it just before the year ran out! And then wished I hadn’t waited so long, I was welcomed with a cup of tea (is this even allowed at the dentist?), smiling faces and kind words. Robin understood my anxiety and explained everything in a calm quiet way helping me to relax. I can honestly say that for the first time I did not find it stressful and was happy to return for 2 further visits - I feel he and his team have helped me overcome my fears and I cannot recommend them enough.

Louise Evans

I was super nervous when I moved to Southampton and had to find a new dentist in a city where there are so many to choose from. I was really happy with the one that I had and had a few bad experiences in the past that made me very nervous every time I went for a check up and even more nervous if I had to have any work done. My first appointment with Dr Hanna I sat in the reception shaking a little as I was so nervous. As soon as I walked into his treatment room I was instantly put at ease by his huge smile and calming nature. He talked me through the whole examination and asked me so many more questions than the usual “how are your teeth” and also checked my jaw which I’ve never had at another check up. I’ve had one or two treatments with Dr Hanna and I can honestly say he goes ABOVE and BEYOND any other dentist to make sure you are comfortable and looked after (I think he genuinely cares that his patients are happy, pain free and gives them the best/suitable advice) instead of offering treatments to make money. It’s not only Dr Hanna that makes the practice what it is though as you are well looked after from the moment you step in thanks to the reception team and friendly dental nurses. I would highly recommend Dr Hanna but my husband is also a patient of the surgery with another dentist and is also super happy with the treatment he receives. Thank you Hampshire Dentists for being so awesome!!

Kayleigh Taylor

Saw Dr Hanna for a check up and Charlotte for a hygienist appointment - both were brilliant and instantly put me at my ease. It was totally painless - first time I've ever enjoyed a visit to the dentist!! Definitely a lovely team to stick with!

Zara Hayat

I’m so grateful to Robin and his team for their outstanding care. I walked in with an abscess and no appointment and was treated and pain free within 30 minutes. Can’t thank them enough.

Alison Farmer

I'm such a nervous patient but was completely put at ease the kindness, patience and understanding was amazing and best of all you've helped me SMILE again !!!!!!!! I couldn't have wished for more ........

“I smile now, which I never did before”

I first went in and spoke to the team at Hampshire Dentists, which was a tough thing for me to do, after some awful experiences with other dentists, I just lost all faith, my teeth were something that was affecting me mentally and physically, stopping me doing so many things I wanted to. The team put me on to Rob Hanna, Rob couldn’t have been any more helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and everything I asked for he made sure of it. On the 20th November I was in the chair for 9 hours nearly. I was put to sleep out of choice of my own, which was probably the best thing I did. I woke up feeling only a little sore, considering what I had done I thought I would have been in agony! Getting Rob to fix my teeth was the best thing I ever did. I cannot thank him enough, I’m currently having some more small treatments, but feeling so comfortable and trusting, I’m going to just be numbed rather than asleep, which for me is crazy as walking into a dentist before meeting Hampshire Dentists would have been a miracle let alone having work done whilst being awake. I really can’t thank the team enough. I smile now, which I never did before, lots of friends and family didn’t realise I even could smile! My confidence is sky high and I’m so over the moon. Thank you all so much.
