Smiles by the Sea Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I have been a long time client of Richard’s. For good reason. The first thing I was most impressed with was how gentle he is in regards to not experiencing any pain or discomfort. The quality of his workmanship is second to none. He is very informative in regards to what you may require and is a good listener in regards to to what your concerns maybe. Finally I am also impressed with the constant up grades with his equipment he has in his work place to achieve the best treatment possible without having to be sent elsewhere, pretty much all your needs are all achieved all in house at the one location. I hope Richard doesn’t think of retiring anytime soon. I would hate to have to go to anyone else.
Thank you so much for such a generous and detailed review. It truly means a lot to hear that you’ve trusted Richard for so many years. His gentle approach and commitment to providing pain-free, high-quality care are things he takes great pride in, and we’re glad this continues to make such a difference for you.
We also appreciate your kind words about our technology and in-house treatment options, we’re always updating our equipment to ensure our patients receive the best care possible without added inconvenience.
Your loyalty and confidence in our practice are greatly valued, and we hope to continue looking after your smile for many years to come. And don’t worry, Richard has no plans to retire anytime soon!

Negative experience: Rushed procedure
Hi Andrew, I am very sorry for the experience you had, but unfortunately I have checked our data base and it seems you didn't attend our practice as I am unable to find you in our system.
Fantastic experience: Easily the best dental surgery I’ve ever been to… I’ve always felt really nervous about going to the dentist but Dr Richard Wilkins & his team put me at ease straight away. Dr Wilkins has a very gentle and kind manner & he did a great job of cleaning my teeth (without giving me a lecture about flossing). The staff were lovely and the newly renovated surgery looks comfortable, crisp & clean. I highly recommend this business.
Thank you Amelia for the review :) we love knowing our patients leave happier than when they may of walked in. We look forward to seeing you every 6 months
Fantastic experience: Richard has been our dentist for over 20 years. In all that time, I have never felt any discomfort or pain from any procedures - including root canal! Richard is always so gentle, capable and professional in his work, and has a friendly and interested manner. We fully trust his advice. We never have to wait for long periods of time, and the dental surgery is always clean and fresh! The dental nurse and reception staff are always so helpful, fun and caring. They remember details about our family and extended family, and make us feel very welcome and comfortable. We always have positive experiences going to the dentist, and the kids even ask to go - they don't fear a dentist trip at all!
Thank you so much Tamara for the review :) We look forward to continuing to provide you with our great service
Fantastic experience: Richard and his team are always courteous and punctual. No hours waiting before your appointment. I have been going to see Richard for many years and thus far I feel very comfortable. Richard explains treatment options and how to achieve the best possible outcome. It’s hard to find a dentist you can trust. I do trust Richard and his team. Sent from my iPad
