Reviews of Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre
M.
I went to see Haydn today to sort out a few issues I had, mainly pain on a tooth that has a root canal.
The experience was great, Haydn asked me a few questions, listened to my answers attentively, checked my teeth and got some x-rays.
After this we discussed a plan to fix the different issues step by step.
I am really happy with his approach and coming back next week to start the process.
Looking forward to it!
Thanks Team!
I have had 2 appointments with Haydn after the initial one.
1- He fixed a tricky filling on one of my front teeth which now looks great!
2- I also had an initial appointment to do a root canal as one of my teeth was very sore. I felt no pain at all during the procedure and now the tooth pain I had before seeing him is all gone!
I am really happy about the results!
Cheers
Marcos
S.
A fantastic practice with friendly and professional staff. Hayden's manner was calming and he explained clearly each step as he moved through procedures. The work done was great! I was also really impressed with restorative work done on one of my teeth. I highly recommend B H Bay Dental.
R.
I got my wisdom teeth removed a few days ago, which I was pretty nervous and anxious about. However, everything went so smoothly! Peter is so good at his job and he reassured me about how it was going to be easy and not painful during the procedure! I would definitely recommend coming here for future dental visits - the team definitely take good care of you.
M.
I hadn't been to the dentist for over two years. I had been putting it off, but finally made the decision to go. I contacted Blockhouse Bay Dental and booked an appointment with Rebecca the hygienist. She was great. She made the experience easy. Then I made an appointment to see Dr (Peter) Raymond for a check up and two fillings (which I knew I needed) but didn't want to do. Dr Raymond was great. He made me feel at ease and comfortable and we just got on and did it. I'm very happy with the whole process. I wish I had done it sooner! It was very easy to book as they have online bookings as well as receptionists who are lovely and try to accommodate you as much as possible. I would highly recommend Rebecca and Dr Raymond as they were both great. Thank you Blockhouse Bay Dental. It was lovely - and I don't think many people say that about going to the dentist!
N.
I would like to say a huge Thank You for Dr. Raymond and his Team. I have been there couple of times and am I am so impressed.
Best tooth extraction I ever had, no pain, very well explained all the steps! I felt very comfortable and felt that I was looked after well.
I would highly recommend for everyone. Fantastic service and care!
P.
Had severe tooth pain over night, call them and saw me the same day. Unfortunately a root canal was needed (1st one ever), explained the process in a calm and professional manner. Overall they made a potentially awful experience into quite a relaxed one, walked out of there happy as Larry, I highly recommend Peter and the team at Blockhouse Bay Dental.
J.
Absolutely incredible team. I had real issues with going to the dentist and had ignored it for many years. Then I tried to ignore for longer as its embarrassing and you don't want to be judged. I finally had to admit that I had to go, and when I go to the clinic I was feeling very apprehensive and wanted to run for the door ! However somehow this expert team & Pete got me through it, they encouraged me & helped be face what I needed to face, I didn't feel judged , I felt supported & can how go to the dentist & work on the rest of my journey with Pete & his team. To others out there like me - make the appointment with this team and you will be fine :-)
M.
Been coming to this dentist practice for ages now . Hayden has never let me down. He’s professional and reliable . Always in for a good chat every time with everyone as so friendly . An amazing team ! And prices are great. Feels like home. Thanks Hayden and the team
S.
If you're scared of the dentist for any reason - fear of pain, embarrassment over the state of your teeth, whatever - the Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre is the place to go. I had a tooth out this morning after months of pain - it took about five minutes and I didn't feel a thing. Amazing. Very kind and gentle dentists who really want to help you have a healthy mouth.
C.
A big thank you to Peter and team for my dental examination and filling today. I felt much comfortable visiting the dentist now. The magic of gentle and informative dental service that Peter and team provided is truely exceptional. I was so impressed as a patient as well as a healthcare professional. Can I also mention that I really enjoyed the photography work of Peter’s, looking at exotic landscapes and wild animals helped me relax during the treatment, really nice touch.
A.
Excellent clinic and people. Dr. Peter Raymond is a compassionate and angel character personality. He feels the suffering of people. His commitment and dedications to the dental profession are outstanding. One can be benefitted to treat a variety of dental problems at a reasonable and minimum cost. I salute Dr. Peter Raymond for his help and support to treat my teeth with maximum possible comfort. I strongly recommend anyone to explore this great clinic.

As a new patient, the Staff at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre were prompt and professional. Good communication and listening skills. Both the Dental Surgeon, Dr Haydn Gray and the Oral Health Therapist, Kinjal Divech were patient in answering my questions, offering up-to-date advice on treatment, preventative care, latest technology and costs without being too technical. They were knowledgeable in their field explaining each step before proceeding during treatment which enabled me to feel relaxed.
Although the office is upstairs if you have a mobility issue, it had a welcoming atmosphere being greeted by friendly staff on arrival who were helpful.
Being a Senior, it was reassuring to see health & safety practice in place with signs promoting hygiene practices and social distancing. A large tv in place of magazines in the waiting area screening the latest innovations in dental technology was educational. There is a 1 hour carpark outside the building and plenty of on street public parking in a quiet street. Location is convenient with Labtests downstairs next to an accountant office, gas station and pharmacy / retail / supermarket across the road. Overall, I didn’t feel rushed, uncomfortable during treatment or pressured into making on the spot decisions for future treatments. It was also good to share a few laughs with Staff to make you feel at ease.
C.
Exam by Haydn Gray was quick and painless. He doesn’t ‘make up’ issues just to get you to pay more. All staff that I came in contact with are kind and friendly. Definitely recommend
J.
Great visit, new tech! I admit I was a little apprehensive about my checkup and cleaning, because I dislike the cold water blaster thingy... but there is a new option!! Thank you so much to Kinjal Divech for walking me through the new AIRFLOW technology and doing a great job. It was fast, comfortable, and did the job. Excellent new technology, a real game changer!
T.
Thanks Dr Peter and team at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. They always provided professional and friendly service. Highly recommended dental clinic.
R.
I had a mouth guard fitted and made through Peter Raymond's surgery. This is the second one I had made after having my first mouth guard for many years which needed to be replaced when I got a new dental fitting. I use the mouth guard when I play the Clarinet, it stops the inside bottom lip from getting sore from teeth pressure when applied to the reed on the mouthpiece. I wanted a smaller mouth guard this time and fortunately with the help of Peter we came up with the right size. The smaller mouthpiece is so much better, giving me more response and control over the sound, which will allow me to develop a more refined technique. Its worth its weight in Gold! So pleased!
R.
Thank you all again for your friendly, professional and caring approach. It's great to have a local dentist just up the road and at the end of the phone always able to provide straight forward and personalised attention. I can honestly say that the outcome of every visit is a great success :)
J.
Always a pleasant experience visiting Peter and his team. They are always very nice and accommodating, always making sure you’re comfortable. Highly recommend.
I.
On Sunday morning my front top tooth broke. It was a previously repaired broken tooth. On Monday morning I rang the Centre hoping that it could be repaired immediately. I was asked if I could come in at 9.40am. I said ‘yes’. The tooth was repaired and I am very pleased with the result. I think this was excellent service during level 3 in Lockdown. Cheers to Haydn.
T.
For me to go to a dentist has always been a big issue due to past experiences and trauma (the murder house). Today Peter and Rose were just amazing. Their professionalism and empathy and the over all experience was enjoyable, relaxed and comfortable. I now look forward to going to the dentist. Thank you team.
B.
Chose BHB Dental because of good reviews. Word of mouth proves everything. I cannot recommend them highly enough. It was actually my first dental experience in NZ, I was nervous at first, but they made me feel very relaxed. Massive thanks to Dr. Gray and assistant Tracy, very professional and caring, I had a great result. Receptionist Paula and Debbie are always warm and welcoming. Thanks again team!
n.
Amazing team, great support.
I’ve been to many dentists in NZ but Dr.Raymond is best actually the best. I had very complex wisdom tooth issue from last several years, recently my friend recommended Dr.Raymond and truly He fixed the problem in no time.I would definitely highly recommend him big time.
Big cheers and shout out for Dr.Raymond
Any dental issues at least consult him once you won’t regret. 👍🏻 No rip offs, very straight forward and to the point.
S.
Thanks to Dr. Raymond and his team. They always provide an excellent and professional service. Had my wisdom tooth removed today, and after hearing all those hearing stories, I couldn’t help but to feel a tad nervous. They made me feel so comfortable and honestly did not hurt one bit. Very highly recommended!!
A.
The team at Blockhouse bay Dental Centre are friendly, professional and give you the best service. I really appreciated the clear and helpful communication for the front desk, they send you reminders so you don't forget your appointment, and Dr Peter Raymond and his awesome assistant completed 2 fillings pain free for me! Would highly recommend this clinic!
L.
The Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre is a great place to go to take care of your teeth. The team is very professional, courteous and friendly. Dr. Peter Raymond is excellent at what he does and I will be going to him for all my future dental needs. I would highly recommend The Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre to anyone to enjoy the benefits of excellent oral health.

My 84 year old mother was a new customer to them and they fitted her in same day to have a tooth extracted. Mum as amazed when she was told it was all finished as she hadn't felt a thing. Very kind and caring staff would highly recommend
B.
I have just an incredible with the Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre,
My reason for going there were for very unfortunate reason which are
very private and only for me, my Dentist Peter and Rose to know.
My Granddaughter and my Daughter have been coming to this clinic for
many many years but not. Due to the situation i was in and still require many visits I had been told by friends and especially my family that the situation i am experiencing required a top Dentist to overcome my situation.
my first visit last week Feb 2021 was certainly one I shall remember.
Peter my Dentist and his wonderful Nurse Rose, Amazing caring people
H.
I highly recommend this dental practice.
My initial phone contact with reception was professional, informative, warm and friendly.
Upon arrival for my first appointment, I was once again impressed with the welcoming and helpful reception staff.
Assessment and treatment of my urgent dental issue was conducted by Dr Gray, who discussed my options and kept me informed throughout the procedure in a highly professional and reassuring manner.
I am delighted with the excellent treatment result - this is possibly the best dental care I have ever experienced.
My whole family will be enrolling!
C.
I have been a patient at the BHB dental clinic for many years. Have even moved out of the area over the years but keep coming back because the service is superb. It’s friendly and great care is taken to experience no pain or discomfort whilst you can view Pete’s great photos from the screen above you as he and Rose work through the issue as a great team. Highly recommend the clinic.
A.
I've put off visiting the dentist for years but I am now a complete convert thanks to this local clinic. The service from the reception is amazing but the service from the dentists and nurses truly are brilliant! The consultation session gave me exact work, timeline and cost with no surprises... Other than the fact there was never any pain! Whatever voodoo they use ensures you don't feel injections and they constantly monitor and check to see you are ok and handling things well. I truly can't recommend them enough.
A.
Such a wonderful practice. All of the staff are so lovely and the dentistry is fantastic. I recently visited to get a filling and it was totally painless (including the injection) and fast. Absolutely recommend.
T.
Went in earlier this year for.a removal and several fillings. The people were delightful, and I found the service very good.
A lovely team. I'm so relived to be with a good dentist at last.
L.
I had my teeth cleaned early this month. I must say it’s the best hygiene I have done so far among my experiences both in New Zealand and overseas. Due to COVID I had my teeth hygiene delayed for a while. When I was looking for a good dental Center I came across with BHB dental which had very high score. I then looked up their website, it’s so good they have whole team listed with detailed background. I chose Rebecca Chi who I found was very professional and efficient. She also pointed out the correct way to use dental floss Which have done for so many years. This morning when I looked at my teeth I really love the way my gum feels . It’s so healthy now! Highly recommend this place. I have mentioned to a few of my friends already. This is indeed the right one deserves the full score. Thank you so much.
D.
My teeth and I have been relying on Dr Raymond and the team at Blockhouse Bay Dental for many years. The team has always provided excellent care in a calming and comfortable environment.
With Dr Raymond's fantastic wildlife and adventure photography screening as the backdrop, time in the dentist's chair passes quickly.
Treatment options, benefits and any costs are discussed up-front. Bookings, reminders and cancellations are handled super-efficiently, and all customer contact is friendly and professional. I highly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental!
S.
Dr Raymond and his team are fabulous, very caring, empathetic and efficient what more could you ask for!
C.
I have been with Blockhouse Bay Dental for about a year now and I have never been happier to attend an appointment! The staff are lovely, I personally see Dr Hayden and his assistant and they are both extremely knowledgeable and informative. Could not recommend the team enough. 10 out of 10!
C.
I've been a patient of Peter's and Blockhouse Bay Dental for many years and they have always provided professional and friendly service. They like to know who you are and how you are, and they take the time to 'chit chat' prior to treatment. Connection is key in this business and you can feel welcomed by Paula and Debbie at reception and with all the staff. Thanks team!! :-)
i.
Top class service from Dr Peter Raymond and the Hygienist, they looked after me so well during my dental cleaning and check up. I also have learned a lot from Dr Peter Raymond how to look after my teeth which is so beneficial for me. Surely will be back again for my next check up.
A.
Peter and all the staff at the Dental Centre make going to the dentist a positive and mostly pain free experience. The procedures were very well explained and I was consulted every step of the way. Really appreciated the care and attention. All the staff were friendly and amenable. I feel much more confident about going to the dentist.
S.
I have never been to a dentist in my whole life. Visited the Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre because of a broken tooth. I was so nervous as I didn't know what to expect.
The moment I stepped into the clinic, I was welcomed by Paula and Debbie at the Reception. I instantly felt relaxed. Both of them are warm and welcoming.
Dr Jacy Lin was the first dentist I have ever had in my life and I want her to be my dentist for the rest of my life. She is warm, welcoming, calming, professional and very very helpful. I was worried about the cost so she provided me with different solutions, as well as explained to me the differences between them. Throughout my treatment, she was there to comfort me and patiently explained to me how everything works. I felt I was being cared for and well looked after. Dr Lin and Amber are a dream team. Seeing those two ladies working their magic was the best part of my visit (I almost forgot that I had a broken tooth haha).
I know I am not suppose to write an essay here but I am just so happy with my visit and I can not be more grateful (I can eat steak again with no pain no troubles!) . I know the team at BBDC may think they were just doing their job, but for someone who has never visited a dentist before, what you guys did are just magical and it should be acknowledge and thanked.
So again, thank you so much for everyone who helped me, welcomed me and treated me that day. You guys are the BEST!!!!!!
B.
I had 2 of my impacting wisdom teeth removed by Dr Peter Raymond. The whole team on the day were so incredibly calm and reassuring that all would be okay... and it was! The follow up care and phone call was muchly appreciated just to ask a few more questions. I’d do it again for the other 2 teeth if I could.... however Dr Peter has my best interest at heart and will refer me to a specialist.
H.
Highly recommended dental clinic. After a terrible experience at a previous dentist, I switched to Blockhouse Bay Dental and am so glad I did so! Peter and the team are exceptional at what they do, and aim to make you feel comfortable throughout the procedure. I'm still due to get a wisdom tooth removed but I know I'll be in safe hands.
F.
I found Blockhouse Bay Dental's website easy to navigate and it had lots of information I needed on it, as well as a special bit about anxious patients which was nice to know they understand how I feel about going to the dentist. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Dr Hayden explained all the procedures in detail before doing them and after talked me through the options. Also I really like that you can see all the free appointments available when booking in online. Overall a really good experience, I've recommended them to friends already.😁
U.
I had a surprisingly pleasant and relaxed first-time-in-40+-year visit to the dentist today, to have one of my lower-back teeth extracted! What was even more surprising was that the tooth was out within 30-40mins - I'd expected it to take hours, lol.
A lovely team of people at BB Dental Centre - thanks for making what I thought would be daunting delightful.
Very pleased =)
M.
Peter has been my dentist for many many years !
His friendly, patient personality and perfect painless treatment along with his amazing staff is truly commendable!
Are you looking for a positive, pleasant, professional dentist ? then I would highly recommend Peter as this person !
Yours Margaret Jones
M.
Great service by all staff, from the reception, Dr Raymond and his assistant. very welcoming and informative. Thanks for the urgent tooth removal when other dentist suggested oral surgeons. Would definitely recommend this place.
D.
I am given excellent care at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre and warmly recommend them. The equipment is up to date and the staff are thoughtful and kind. I am always very happy with the work Peter does on my teeth and he is great at giving injections without hurting the gums.

Thank you Dr Haydn Gray and the team at Blockhouse Dental for the outstanding care you provide. The receptionists are super friendly and do the best to accommodate you. Tracey receives you with a smile and is very supportive. Dr Gray is amazing at explaining what is going on and what is best treatment if necessary. He is professional, gentle and very personal. Rebecca, dental hygienist, provides excellent care, taking the time to explain all the preventive care that is tailored to the individual patient.
D.
From the moment you enter reception and are greeted by Paula you automatically feel at ease. She is welcoming, friendly and approachable. I was seen by Pete and assistant Rose. The welcoming, friendliness and transparency continued throughout my visit. I highly.recommend them as your dentist specialist. They are professional, friendly, understanding, transparent, sensitive to a customers need and just down right wonderful.
I have been to many different dentists and walked away feeling ripped off, unsatisfied with that feeling of they just wanted money.
But with Blockhouse Bay Dental Clinic I have finally in all my years, found a clinic that I will stay as a regular customer.
Thank you Paula, Pete and Rose. You have restored my faith in dental work and dental specialists.
B.
Honestly the best dentists I have been to. Was recommended this place through a friend and really pleased I followed their advice. Had a filling this afternoon and absolutely no pain with the needle, amazing! Great music playing during the appointment, wonderful, friendly and professional service both dental staff and receptionists. A pleasant experience all round!!! Well done for your excellent practice.
J.
I needed 3 fillings, also previous dental work carried out at A&E lincoln road was also not up to standard.
I was a little nervous due to previous experiences at the dentist however my fears were swiftly put to rest.
It was a painfree gentle experience and I am thoroughly impressed with not only the work carried out but by the staffs expertise in all areas and the information and explanations before and during the whole process.
I am happy I have found a great dentistry and will have all further work done at Block House Bay Dental.
Kind regards and many thanks.
L.
I have been a regular patient at this Practice for many years and can highly recommend it. Dr Peter Raymond is an excellent dentist who carefully explains treatment before carrying it out with great skill and care. His chairside assistant Rose ensures my comfort throughout the appointment. It is always a pleasure to visit Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre and know that my dental health is in good hands.
A.
Absolutely love this place. I have a phobia of dentists and anything related to it. However after my first appointment which I really had to push myself to go, I'm super happy with how I was treated. Dr Haydn & Tracy are so good! Additionally when I had my appointment with Rebecca, I had the same experience.!
I love them and as a result how I'm a registered patient.! Now I can go for my dental appointment and feel more at ease compared to what I was before as I know they will take care of my needs as they don't have one size fit all approach.
J.
I highly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental. After having some unpleasant experiences at a different dental surgery, I was relieved to find a dentist that I feel comfortable with. Hayden has been fantastic. He is kind and always explains what is happening. The other staff are also very friendly and considerate.
J.
I have been going to Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre since moving to Auckland 10 years ago. I credit Peter and the team with saving my teeth. While I have always tried to be vigilant this is the first time I have had the proactive and practical care that is resulting in the long term benefit of my oral health. The staff are outstanding, including front office and hygienists. As a result of moving cities frequently I have had many different dental surgeries but none measure up to the service I have received from Blockhouse Bay Dental.
P.
Today was the first time I've used Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre and I'm soo glad I did. Dr Raymond and his team were amazing! Given the complexity of the dental work that needed to be done for me; I had expected excruciating pain and discomfort. However, what I experienced was soo much better! They were fast, they kept me updated right throughout the process, and before I knew it it was finished and I had experienced no pain! I'm definitely not going to be scared to go for my next appointment.
J.
Friendly, courteous and professional staff! Attending Dentist & hygienist gives clear scientific explanation why you need to go through a certain procedure, options are given with specific instructions and respects patient decision. Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre renders professional dental care at a very rasonable and affordable cost. Thank you.
D.
Overdue feedback/review! Visited the dentist for the first time in April earlier this year after years of not seeing one. I felt really daunted and worried about seeing the dentist, but on arrival at bbdc the lovely receptionist Debbie had prepared a note for me to read (I am deaf and informed them of that prior to arrival). It really did take all unnecessary anxiety and embarrassment away before I saw the dentist. Great example of someone going above what’s expected.
I have been seeing Dr Peter Raymond for the past few months over a few dental issues. I’m honestly very impressed with his and his dental assistant’s professionalism and care. He’s a very approachable, honest and straightforward dentist. Always ensures that treatments you receive from him and his team are to the highest standard possible and best suitable for your needs. He never rushes into unnecessary treatments. Always examines your dental problems very carefully and thoroughly to properly identify and determine a diagnosis prior to commencement of treatments. Never been put in any pain during the procedures, always puts me at ease. Now I know I can walk into his clinic feeling easy and reassured. The quality of his and his team’s work and dental care is amazing and unique.
His dental clinic is highly recommended.
C.
Thank you for my wonderful experience seeing Dr Peter Raymond at the clinic that day,he take away my scary feeling. He is gentle and very friendly with very clear explanation.,which give me back my confidence not to be scare visiting to the dentist.. (the pain ha.. ha.. ) Rebecca chi also I would like to thank you for your gentleness for looking after me during my cleaning process. The clinic full with friendly and helpful staff .

G.
Never a good feeling knowing you have a Dentist appointment looming...however with the ultimate professional care, warm and friendly greetings you know you are always truly in good hands when you visit Dr Peter and the Team.
They always go the extra mile! Thanks Blockhouse Bay Dental
R.
Thank you Dr Peter Raymond for helping me daughter relief from her tooth pain. She is not in pain anymore and we only half way thru her treatment. My daughter is very very happy😊 I highly recommend Peter. Im moving my family to Blockhouse Bay Dental. Thank you so much Peter😊🥰 💗
P.
I found my first visit to the practice very informative and engaging.
But
and unfortunately there is a but, i would have appreciated being informed my teeth were NOT going to be cleaned prior to the dentist looking at them. I was advised after my check up i would have to make another appointment with the hygienist to have my teeth cleaned. I was not happy.
This is the first time at a dental practice i have not had a clean done on the initial visit. Maybe this is something you need to inform new patients of going forward.
B.
I was referred to blockhouse bay dental it turned out to be a great choice.
The staff where easy to talk too. Making the whole process easy and calming. Dr raymond and his assistant done an amazing job great attention to detail and worked really well as a team. Painless and you know your teeth are in good hands with good modern dental practices. Definitely will recommend to others

5.0 /5
From the first phone call I was impressed with the service at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. The reception staff are personable and professional. They make you feel you are welcome. They treat you as a real person. The dentist, Peter Raymond is excellent, considerate and the treatment leaves you without any pain or discomfort. He takes the time to explain the treatment process, suggests a treatment plan according to priority, informs you of options and let's you know the cost of each treatment before you go ahead with any treatment, Above and beyond this high level of personal service and expertise, the premises are clean and well-presented. You also get to enjoy stunning black and white photography of wild life and faraway people and places on the walls and while you're in the chair! Highly recommend, Thank you, Team at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre!
M.
My Name is Allan Rainbow, and have been a customer for a number of years. My personal experience visiting Peter & Rose at Blockhouse Bay Dentist has been, a most enjoyable one. Look forward to my visit / catch ups - bit like old friends really. Honest advice, polite acceptance of issues and best treatment, which to means everything.
That's my own experience and has been for each and every visit.
Thanks Peter/Rose
Until next time
Allan
S.
Thank you Peter and the Team at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. I have been going here for over 15 years and it is always such an easy and painless experience. The receptionists have a good reminder system for the annual check up and Peter is a very good at what he does.
C.
Absolutely recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental. Was a first time patient and they use a tablet for you to fill in the forms, pretty fancy I'd say. Pete was comprehensive in his explanations and gave good reasoning for what he is doing. The team is also very friendly. Thanks Again!
S.
I’ve been going to Blockhouse Bay Dental for 14 years and seeing Peter. He’s a great dentist, explains everything thoroughly and makes sure you’re comfortable and at ease. Have recommended friends and family and they’re all very happy too.
L.
I’ve been a client of Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre for quite a while now. The staff are always really friendly, helpful and accommodating. They never make me feel rushed and are always more that happy to answer any questions. The Centre is always clean, tidy and hygienic and I would 100% recommend to any of my friends and family.
B.
This clinic was exceptional! I had a 50 minute clean for $90 (check their website for specials). Rebecca the hygienist was great in managing my dental phobia, and I sat comfortably through the appointment. Highly recommend!
I.
My 1st visit was an emergency case and I was very glad that they were able to accommodate me on short notice. The dental centre is such a lovely place with all the beautiful photos on the walls that definitely would make any patient feeling welcomed and comfortable. Dr Peter Raymond is an amazing, caring dentist, who was so considerate and explained to me in detail the procedure, as well as ensured that I was at ease while it was being done. Great job, Dr. Raymond and team!
n.
After much shopping around for a good dentist in Auckland over the last few years, I have finally found a place I finally feel looked after by :) The staff at blockhouse bay were nothing but friendly and helpful right from my first email enquiry. All my appointments were on time, the facilities were great and the highlight of it all was Dr Peter Raymond (and assistant of course!) who was absolutely fantastic. Very professional, friendly with lots of explanations and advice on how I can care for my teeth which is exactly what I have needed. He gave me estimate costs for everything needed to be done which I found very reasonable, and honest advice on timeframes etc. I had a molar that needed extracting which I was nervous about, however should not have worried as it was painless and luckily quick without any complications surely thanks to his experience and skill. Will definitely be coming here now for all my future teeth issues and recommending to family and friends! The photography in this clinic is also fantastic and worth a mention ;)
D.
Before visiting Blockhouse Bay dental I had a terrible phobia of visiting the dentist and having dental work done. Dr. Haydn Gray and the team were amazing! They made sure I was relaxed and as comfortable as possible during my visits and I cannot recomend them highly enough. The team at Blockhouse Bay dental have changed my whole outlook and approach to oral health - I honestly never though I would see the day I would walk into a dental practice feeling so reassured. Thank you all so much!
A.
Having attended the Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre for many years the staff and services have been impecable.
Peter has been my dentist for his duration of time at the centre. The friendly personal and professional service he provides is exceptional.
Recently I had a tooth removed! I was certainly hesitant about this, however the professional step by step information Peter provided with the procedure it was all completed in very little time and painless.
I would highly recommend Peter as a trusted professional.
K.
I have been visiting Peter and his team at BBD for many years now and the service they offer is superb in every way. No dental issue is ever a problem for them and is always fixed quickly, efficiently and more importantly for me totally painlessly.
Peter is very much into prevention and is still looking after fillings I had when I was a teenager, I am now just into my seventies. Thank you Peter and Team!
L.
I have been going to Haydn for several years now and cannot fault his skill or professionalism. His assistant Tracey is also fantastic and their sense of humor helps calm your nerves. I would highly recommend anyone to use Blockhouse Bay dental for any dental requirements.
C.
I have been seeing Dr Peter Raymond for the last couple of years after neglecting going to the dentist for quite a while due to fear of the pain. Peter and Team have always been professional and personable and my trust has built up over the last few months. Peter promised pain free treatment and he has fulfilled that promise. The Team are always friendly, helpful and efficient. I would recommend Blockhouse Bay dentists to anyone who wants a reliable, pain free experience with their dentist.

I visited Blockhouse Bay Dental at the recommendation of my wife. I was seen by Haydn, Tracey, and Rose. All staff were very professional. Haydn was thorough in his explanations surrounding options available to me, costs, and implications of any choices I made....... and the work was absolutely pain free.
I would highly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental.
Thanks guys.

Very professional practice and staff.. wish I had visited a lot sooner! Diagnostics were thorough, x-rays very clear & full explanations given. I went in with a badly damaged tooth which needed a crown. Careful attention was given to lining up with my other teeth, colour was even matched & no pain during procedure. Impressed with working coordination between dentist & assistant
J.
Pete and the team at Blockhouse Bay Dental are always very friendly and professional. Pete is an absolute master craftsman and his workmanship is second to none. Blockhouse Bay Dental is the first dentist I have been to that has been completely pain-free, I don't know they do it but I'm glad they do.
M.
I've never felt so comfortable and relaxed with a dental procedure before. This is my best experience so far especially that I had been very terrified of coming to the dentist. This clinic had changed my perspective. Dr. Hayden and the whole team is simply awesome! :) Thank you very much.
L.
So after a wee hiatus (I thought I'd try a more local dentist but these guys really are worth the drive) I have been coming back to Peter the Dentist and Rebecca the hygienist. On my first visit after 'the break' they both recommended I switch to an electric toothbrush and I wish I had done it sooner. But no-one had ever explained the benefits the way these two did. Peter is clearly very good at what he does, he explains things very well and he doesn't just find something wrong for the sake of it. This is a modern practice. It seems equipped with up to date technology but it has a good old fashioned friendly feel about it. Don't bother trying anywhere else - these guys are very good.
A.
Having been to many different dentists, I feel like have found my dental home at Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. I can be quite anxious at the dentist, and like everyone fear pain, but Dr Raymond has put those fears behind me with totally painless dentistry. I don't even know that he has given an injection as it's so painless. All my proposed treatment was thorougly and clearly explained to me and I was even shown the issues with a special camera.
All the staff are thoroughly professional and caring, and the practice is modern, and super clean.
I totally recommend Blokhouse Bay Dental Centre!!!
E.
I have been a patient here for many years and have always felt well cared for. Peter's relaxed manner always puts me at ease while he tackles my various dental issues. I definitely recommend this practice.
K.
I have been a patient of Dr Haydn Gray's for over 15 years. He is an excellent Dentist and always explains things well. He comes across as an honest, genuine person. I am constantly recommending him to friends and family. Highly recommend!!
S.
I was a very nervous customer having not seen a dentist for many years. I found Peter to be non judgmental, friendly, caring, patient and most of all so gentle throughout the procedures I had done. He provides constant reassurance and best of all the entire procedure (root canal) was pain free! I could not speak higher of the service provided by Peter and his team.
t.
One of the best decisions I have made by attending Blockhouse Bay Dental. Dental treatment to the highest standards. Never in my many years have I received such professional dental care from a friendly and dedicated staff operating in a modern and pleasant facility second to none.
N.
It’s very good experience.very outstanding service and excellent skills ! I felt relaxed and satisfied because of Dr peter was very supportive and would like to explain my problems thoroughly!
Otherwise the price was very reasonable . However I felt the qualities was more than the prices!
Moreover the reception was very optimistic environment , you can learn from TV about the knowledge of oral health care!the nurse was very kindly as well!
C.
Under Covid level 3 lockdown, the team at Blockhouse Bay Dental helped me out with a very painful tooth issue. As I was in pain they started treatment they same day I contacted them and by the weeks end the treatment was complete. Just want to give the Team a big thanks for helping me out. Great job.
Thanks,
Chris Durnford.
A.
I was nervous because I had broken a piece of tooth off and also needed a large filling replaced. I was expecting the dental work required for the replacement filling to be painful and was delighted when I felt no pain at all.
The tooth now feels smooth and natural. Highly recommended!
P.
Great experience here. Very friendly staff and are always able to accomodate and help out where possible. Dentist always explain what they are doing and give options of best treatment for a reasonable price. Receptionists are also very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend.
M.
Great dental work in which I have total trust. Procedures explained fully in advance as well as cost. Work is done right the first time, no trooping back and forth. Dental tech very competent and receptionists so helpful and friendly.These are the reasons I travel over 100 km each way to attend Dr Peter Raymond..
A.
I have just had my 10th anniversary with Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre and the practice is one that I would absolutely recommend without reservation. From reception, to hygienists to dentists they are a great team. If you have fears they will help you overcome them in a realistic but compassionate manner. This really is pain free dentistry. And I can vouch for this as a previous dental phobic.
C.
The friendly professional staff always make me feel welcome and at ease! Everything is always explained in a way that is easy to understand. I could not be happier! Thank you Dr Haydn Gray and his lovely nurse Tracey, you both do such great jobs of looking after me and my family.
e.
I have been a patient at Blockhouse Bay Dental for a number of years now, and I am very happy with the quality of their care and the services they provide. I have had a number of dental issues to deal with over the years and have felt very confident that my dentist would resolve them promptly and with the highest possible standards, I would definitely recommend them to anyone searching for quality dental care.
J.
Dr Pete Raymond showed me that dental care can be painless, relaxed, and stress free.
His calm, gentle , communicative and professional manner helped me to play my part in ensuring an excellent result .
Thank you so much
M.
The Blockhouse Bay Dentist is a great place to go for all your dental needs. If you ever get the opportunity to have Hayden as your dentist, you’re very lucky. His ability to put you at ease, communicate what and when things are happening is second to none. Not to mention he makes you laugh! Not an easy task when your month is open!
R.
My name is Razan Al-Odeh, I was always dreaded going to the dentist having the fear of needles and injections, but with with the help, patience and consideration of doctor Peter I have overcome that fear. Since then I have been a regular patient in Blockhouse Bay Dentel Centre.
As a professional, friendly and caring team I highly recommend.
G.
I have always found the staff and practitioners are all very professional and caring. Each step of the dental process is clearly explained which helps with understanding and putting one at ease. I certainly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. Ginette Luxford.
K.
As a dental patient with a long history of painful and nervous visits, I was very pleasantly surprised and relieved to be looked after so confidently and with great care by Peter and his team. I'd highly recommend them!
M.
Great team! Super friendly and affordable, Dr Pete always does an excellent job!
J.
I am an extremely nervous and anxious patient, Peter Raymond put me at complete ease. I really appreciated the way he explained everything he was doing during the procedure. I would not hesitate to reccomend Blockhouse Bay Dental, especially to nervous patients!!
A.
Quite possibly the most positive dental experience I've had. The atmosphere is relaxed, not rushed, while the proceedure went very quickly and smoothly. Good information was shared and I never once felt like I was recommended something I didn't need. Would highly recommend!
D.
I was an all out dental-phobe. Terrified to the extent that my daughter had to make the first appointment for me. I learned at that first appointment that I needed root canal work which totally freaked me out. I have now been to five appointments and, thanks to the whole team at Blockhouse Bay, I am a dental-phobe no longer. Yes, I still get a heightened heart beat and have to tell myself to relax, but I can honestly say that Pete has NEVER hurt me, not even a little teeny tiny bit. Right from the greeting at reception to the call the next day to make sure I am ok, this is such a professional practice. I couldn't recommend them highly enough. PS I have to travel for 2+ hours from my home to get to Pete and his team but I will never go anywhere else.
P.
Needles aren’t my thing. Some might even say I’m a wimp. A weird wimp too, because once the dreaded injection has happened I resume normal transmission. I wonder how many other weird wimps are out there? Never fear, with Peter and Rose you are in safe hands. Thank you both for laughing with me and not belittling me, and for accommodating my strange requests: lower my head right down, remind me to breathe, and keep talking — no matter what! Peter and Rose rose to the challenge and tricked my phobia (sorry team I can’t promise it’s been conquered!). For any others who suffer from the same, I can’t recommend this duo highly enough. Peter is an expert, combining professionalism with caring. And Rose is a true star, jumping to the task to spin stories on demand. As an author, what a bonus to learn about her love of picture books, how she relishes reading to her children, how she loves bringing the stories to life with animated voices. How inspiring to learn about her special teacher from primary school who influenced the way she now reads books. These insights were like treasure amongst the madness and I have every confidence Rose could strike the right chord, whatever your interest, leaving you richer for the experience. Well done team, your service is exceptional. And pssst … they’re definitely worthy of five stars: somehow they convinced me to get back in the chair for more of the same after only two weeks!
F.
My experiences with both the Dentists and hygienists have always been fantastic. The receptionists are always very polite and receptive, and all the information I have received has been reassuring and helpful.
G.
Highly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre. Was seen at very short notice by dental surgeon Pete Raymond and my issue was dealt with very professionally and thoroughly. Pete and staff were easy-going and very friendly and made my visit a stressless experience.
S.
BHB Dental Centre is warm, friendly and calming in every interaction they have with their patients. They have removed my fear of going to the dentist - I highly recommend this practice!
W.
The new AIRFLOW appointment for hygiene clean was great! Less time, less invasive, worth the extra $10, easy. Highly recommended!
A.
Consummate professionalism , efficiency and friendliness from reception desk to dentist’s chair. Pete explained treatment options in a concise, easy to understand manner. The wide range of magazines in the waiting area and latest photos of Pete’s travels to remoter parts of planet always make a visit more bearable. Definitely not the soulless, bland ambience you get at other surgeries – this has to be one of the best around.
D.
Brilliant experience as a first time client. From the reception staff to the dental assistant, hygienist and dentist the service was friendly, professional and communication was excellent. I highly recommend Blockhouse Bay Dental Centre.
R.
I have enjoyed being a patient at this relaxed and very professional practice. It is well run, with friendly and communicative staff. Treatment options are discussed and explained, and there is an energy and dynamism that is interesting and reassuring. I feel well taken care of.
M.
Great service, pleasant waiting room. The staff are all friendly, reassuring and all about making the experience as painless as possible - which is great if you are nervous about dentist visits. The only downside for me is they are on the pricy side.
T.
The guys at Blockhouse Bay made the experience of visiting the dentist enjoyable again. The procedures I had were clearly explained to me up front and was totally pain free. Their customer service and attention to detail is excellent. Highly recommended.
D.
Peter replaced my old amalgam filling on my 6 year old molar with a ceramic crown this week. I cannot fault his expertise on pain relief ( excellent oral anesthetic). Preparation of the tooth for the crown was fast and efficient, hence no trauma to the tooth and the placement of the crown was perfect. Very good contact points, but still able to floss and my bite the same as before. I am really pleased; as a Dental Therapist, I am fussy. Thank you Peter! Della Pudney
J.

quite painless.Also, everything at the clinic is spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.
