Fantastic experience: I had a 9-unit bridge with infected teeth underneath, and Dr. Andre Xavier handled the complex procedure with amazing skill. He had to carefully drill through the bridge before extracting the teeth—all done smoothly and painlessly. His calm and professional manner put me at ease the whole time. Special thanks to Isabel, his assistant, who was kind and supportive throughout. I’m so grateful to this team. Highly recommend Sunnynook Dentist

Fantastic experience: I visited Sunnynook Dentist today for all 4 wisdom teeth extraction - firstly, everywhere else was quoting me $2-3.1k and I managed to get all 4 out for a lot cheaper than that (AND THEY HAD AFTERPAY!!!) Secondly, Dr Akshay was so efficient, I did not feel a thing aside from a bit of pressure with my bottom 2 - he injected the anaesthesia so effortlessly with no prick or pain for me and extracted the top two within minutes. I was surprised they were out when he said they were. Lastly, everyone working there was so friendly but also thorough in explaining the aftercare. I am so happy with my experience here that I will be using this dental clinic for everything dental related in the future. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Exceptional Dentist. I've been to many in different countries and Sunnynook is one of the best. My family have been clients for a few years now and have had experience with 3 of their core Dentists, who have all been outstanding. Good online booking system, knowledgeable and helpful reception/front of house. Professional, skilled, friendly, affordable. The North Shore is lucky to have them in the area.

Jenn Sus 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had all 4 wisdom teeth removed in one go. Was surprised I didn’t need to be put to sleep as that is the feedback I had got from other dentists, but incredibly I didn’t feel a thing. Recovery was smooth and service was outstanding from Dr. Lakshay and the team. Price was also reasonable compared to multiple quotes I had before. Highly recommend.

Renee Scott 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Lakshay is absolutely the best dentist I have ever been to, hands down! His dental work is exceptional every time I visit. He is super gentle and has the ability to diminish any anxiety you may have. The rest of the team at the Sunnynook Dentists are also super friendly and welcoming too. There are plenty of payment options if required. Parking is great. I highly recommend you visit the Sunnynook Dentists, I wish I could give them more stars!!! Thank you!!

Positive experience: I've booked the X-ray check up, clean and polish package. The overall experience was great, however I found the whole treatment was pretty rushed. The cleaning was brief and it didn't remove any of the stains at all (which I hoped it would). I probably should have asked in advance to save the time and money to get it done elsewhere instead. The doctor and the staff are friendly though.

Fantastic experience: I have never really had good experiences with dentist places. However, I am over the moon with the service and pricing I received - It was fun and we laughed together throughout the whole process. I have already recommended them to other people and as long as the staff remain the same it will be my go to place for any dental care my family and myself need. Thank you for the experience.You guys and gals are awesome! See you next time

Nailesh Mevada 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lost a tooth due to a crack and was recommend to see Dr. Lakshay by a friend and got a Dental Implant. Honestly, I was a bit nervous, but he made the whole process feel so chill. He explained everything step by step—and kept me in the loop the whole time. He gave me a definitive quotation and stuck to his quote - no surprises. What I really liked? He didn’t try to sell me a bunch of random stuff I didn’t need. No nonsense here. Just straight-up honest advice and solid work. Prices were fair, and the whole vibe was super friendly. He is a gem of person and being under his care for 4 months, I’ve come to trust him with my teeth from now on. If you need a dentist who knows what they’re doing and keeps it real, Dr. Lakshay is your guy. If you are planning to do a Dental Implant, definitely get a consultation here before you make the final call. I found them to be reasonably priced compared to others. Highly recommend—my new tooth and I are very happy!

Lingran Han 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have just had tooth extraction with Dr. Sherin and Racquel. They did some operations and then gave me a pressure pack and asked me to bite it hard. I thought the pressure pack was used to make my cracked tooth a bit more looser for easier pullout. At the same time, Dr. Sherin told me patiently what I shall do in the next 24 hours and ended up with showing me my broken tooth... I was astonished. You ladies have already had the job done. What a magic! I had prepared mentally to be suffering from the extraction but I even didn't feel anything. Thank you Dr. Sharing and Racquel, you are amazing! And thank you Olga for your kindness and smart work. I would highly recommend Sunnynook Dentist for not only it's professional, but affordable as well.

Then yesterday I tripped and fell and smashed my face, chipping my front tooth!!!!! Dr Lakshay Kumar gave up his lunch break to help me, I was due to go on holiday and he saved my smile!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you all. Cannot recommend their professionalism enough!!!

Eleanor Gates 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I'm very impressed with Dr Lakshay Kumar! His no surprises approach, attention to detail, making sure you know what he can do for you, with a no pressure approach is very good. I was weighing up whether to 'invest in my teeth'; I had a couple of chipped front teeth, a few ground down ones, and a gap between the upper two teeth, now I have a lovely smile and eating is more comfortable after several months treatment with Invisalign and some specialised fillings - not veneers. I'm delighted with the result!

Zoe Stokes 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Sherin Takawi is the best dentist I have ever been to!! I came in for a check up and to my dismay, needed 8 fillings. Dr Sherin made time for me in her busy schedule and I am so glad she did. It took two days to complete my treatment and she couldn’t have made it a better experience. She talked me through everything that was happening, reassured me and chatted to me. The vibe in the room was relaxed and I felt I could ask questions the whole time. Her dental assistant was also wonderful! So grateful for the time and hard work they put into my teeth this week. 10/10 recommend Dr Sherin Takawi and her colleagues!

Madison Wei 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Sherin Takawi did an amazing job performing my root canal and crown. I seriously couldn't have asked for a better experience. She made a potentially daunting experience pain-free and relaxing. I felt so relieved afterwards. The team in general are also super friendly, caring and professional from the recptionist Olga to the dental nurse. I used to be so apprehensive about going to the dentist but not anymore. Thank you Dr Sherin and the team!

Fantastic experience: Dr Sherin Takawi at Sunnynook Dentist is incredible. As someone who was previously nervous about going to the dentist, Sherin guided me through the process both before and during the treatment which really helps. Every time that I have been, it has been enjoyable, straight forward and painless. Her professionalism is exceptional and any information is delivered in a way that is easy to understand and with a smile. I can not recommend her enough.

Fantastic experience: I didn’t feel very comfortable with my previous dentist in Milford, and changed to sunnynook after reading a few reviews. The team are very welcoming, knowledgeable, patient and most importantly made me feel comfortable. Dr Sherin and Raquel make a great team and they will be and are the only ones I will trust to do anything with my teeth! Speaking from experience, they don’t push you to get unnecessary work done, and make sure that you are informed about everything, so that you can make the best decision for your circumstances.

Fantastic experience: Probably the best dental experience I've ever had. I came and saw Andre for a routine check up, and it was brilliant. I've never felt more comfortable in the dentist chair. Andre talked me through what he was doing, explained some of his observations and made a number of recommendations. Andre worked really well with his nurse, and this overall contributed to the brilliant experience I have had. I was also impressed with the technology and facilities at Sunnynook Dentist. Would 100% recommend.

Grace Yi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: 11/10!!! I'm sure everyone relate that we are all afraid of going to dentist. But this dentist made me feel so warm and welcoming, non judgemental, rather guiding through every step and communicating with me. Another dentist clinic tried to rip me off. But this Sunnynook dentist is really honest and fully trustable! Special thanks to Lucky(the dentist) and Alphine for your exceptional service and professionalism. I had to take out my small molar and he did it painlessly and in a blink of an eye! If you're looking for a dentist that you can trust, Sunnynook dentist is my no.1 choice. Price, service, professionalism, trust, respect scores are all 11/10. Strrrrrongggllly recommend!!!! I'm going back for my filling next week and I'm not scared anymore! (Also receptionist is sooooo kind)

Tanja Clauberg 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can not begin to thank the team at Sunnynook Dentists. My son called me in at 2am in tears because of the excruciating pain in his mouth. I emailed the practice on the Sunday evening and did not expect to hear back until the Monday morning. I was totally floored, not only did I get an email back but I got a phone call and and a text to say that pain killers and antibiotics had been prescribed!! This all on a Sunday evening!! On the Monday I got a call that they were able to see him before midday! With in 48 hours of the pain starting. Thank you so very much! I was not expecting this at all. The Sunnynook Dentist team went above and beyond - so very grateful and thankful. Yes my son is in incredibly good hands and being looked after.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a great, well priced dentist that cares about their patients and wont try and lock you in to expensive treatment plans... Sunnynook dentists are the one for you! I put off going to the dentist for 10 years due to a bad experience. Im so grateful I found Dr. Lucky. Hes very calm, talks you through the treatment plans and is quick and efficient. Dr. Lucky has always recommended treatment plans, but never pushed me into a decision. He knows about my dentist- anxiety and lets me decide when im ready to have things done, rather than trying to push me into having things done. Have just had a wisdom tooth out which I never thought id be able to put myself through. Quick and painless! Thanks so much Dr. Lucky and sunnynook dentist!

Tikiri Wicks 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Lakshay is literally one of the best dentists or rather all round dental experts in NZ. I've been going to him for years since even before he opened this practice. Just had my wisdom tooth pulled which is no easy feat as my tooth bones are very strong. But Lakshay managed it with a breeze. I have 14 root canals and Crowns / Implants so mine is not a simple case. In NZ I only trust Dr Lakshay for my Dental needs. Best Dentist in NZ

Tamanna Kundra 2 years ago

Aakash Virdi 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I felt compelled to write this testimonial after my appointment today with Dr Lakshay, what an absolute treat, both my teeth and my feelings towards dentists have changed for the better. Very professional and spot on service, kept me informed throughout the procedure that what was involved, applicable to an X-ray imaging was very impressive. Reception staff was so polite and welcoming. In all seriousness my teeth have never felt better and leaving a dentist chair with no regrets. I highly recommend Dr Lakshay to anyone who is in hesitation of a dentistry. Best service at a great price, and for time in my life I am not worried about my next visit to a dentist. Do share my lovely experience with your wider Team please. Thanks heaps!

Raquel Chavez-Nguyen 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a regular check up, then a few weeks later a wisdom tooth extraction with Dr. Lakshay 1. So easy to schedule with Sunnynook and didn’t have to wait long for an appointment 2. Affordable and really lovely facilities! 3. So attentive! From the moment you walk in to reception (I had received a phone call because I was a bit late) to the entire time you’re in the dentist chair - I found Dr. Lucky incredibly attuned to my needs. He knew when to take breaks, when to remind me to breath when I was feeling anxious, and shared everything he was doing so there were no surprises. I was very nervous for my extraction and also found his assistants very calming (tapping me lightly to help co-regulate my nervous system) Recommend 100% (even booked my partner in for his check up too)

Ellys Lim 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I don’t often write reviews but wanting to give a shoutout to the team at Sunnynook Dentist for their great work! I have been visiting Dr Sherin and dental nurse Amy for a root canal treatment and repair of old fillings in the past few weeks. Really appreciate the positive and cheerful attitude every time I visit. It helps massively to make me feel at ease throughout the appointment. The care I was given was very professional, the quality of repair looked amazing, and I hardly feel any pain throughout the multiple appointments. I also think the costs were very reasonable, especially considering the quality of service provided. Coming from someone who are anxious around dentists and only visit when there are signs of problem, the amazing team at Sunnynook Dentist manages to change that outlook and I am certainly feeling encouraged to do more regular checkups and hygiene treatments! Also a big shoutout to the receptionist who gives such warm welcome that arriving at a dentist office feels a lot less scary!

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience with Sunnynook dentists. As someone that hasn't seen a dentist in over seven years, the team at Sunnynook are super friendly and I have no regrets choosing them as my dentists! I would recommend them to anyone, so check them out!

Fantastic experience: Such wonderful staff, and it’s weird to say this about the dentist, but it was one of the best experiences I have had in terms of feeling looked after and welcomed from the second I stepped in the door! If you have been putting off going to the dentist because of nerves or had a bad experience somewhere else, I can recommend this lovely team 109%

Fantastic experience: Wow, couldn't be happier with this dentist. I had some very challenging problems and he was absolutely FANTASTIC! Great on communication, very skilled, listened and empathised, and great support team too. Very reasonable pricing. It's taken me years to find such a great one!

Fantastic experience: I rarely make reviews but I feel I had to do one for them. The team were very friendly and professional. The moment i stepped in the clinic I felt the warm welcome from the receptionist who juggles between phonecalls and entertaining clients. Great customer service. Then i met my dentist, Dr. William. The most genuine dentist I have met my whole life. He was very honest on what’s going on in my teeth and gums and helped me understand the options I have. For the first time, I never felt forced to do something or get something done. I even initiated to have the cleaning even if he adviced it’s not necessary. All in all, sunnynook dentist is just an amazing experience for me and would highly recommend.

Positive experience: I had a very good experience here with my filings then I got Root Canal treatment that I wasn't happy with. I found that Dr. Lakshay decided to work on me in a rush and in between other appointments. I provided my feedback accordingly. Dr. Lakshay called me personally to discuss and address the issues I had and assured that they will consider my feedback positively and ensure this will not be repeated with any other patients. I appreciate the positive approach taken by Dr.Lakshay and the team. I strongly recommend anyone going for Root canal treatment to ensure the doctor has sufficient time (45 minutes at-least) to operate on you.

Dear Gurudev Hiremath, Thanks for leaving your feedback. We take our feedbacks very seriously and we have made changes to make sure that other patients do not feel the same. As you have mentioned as soon as we received your feedback, we called and addressed your concerns and we are happy to know that you are satisfied with our response and actions. Although, We would like to take this opportunity to clarify the rushed appointment comment. Dr Kumar is usually booked out for 2 -3 weeks, but if his patients are in pain, he does his best to accomodate them whenever possible to help them out of their sufferings. On that day, due to a last minute cancellation, a 30 mins slot was made available. You had booked your appointment online for that 30 mins slot and it was the only appointment available for the day. But after the receptionist spoke to you, we realised you were in extreme pain and this may turn into a root canal treatment (RCT) appointment. We could have just done a consultation in that appointment and booked you back for a 45 mins RCT appointment. As Dr Kumar didn’t have an appointment available in the near future, this would mean that you would have to wait in pain. His intention was to relieve you off your suffering the same day so you would be comfortable. But at the same time he had other patients booked in near succession and had to manage his day accordingly. Getting you to wait and seeing you between appointments was the best solution we could offer at that time. Im sure you can appreciate that although in between patients and a bit rushed, we did manage to get you out of pain and didn’t let you suffer another night with tooth ache. This was genuinely our intention, but we realise we failed in the patient experience part this particular time. Anyways, This is no excuse and we are genuinely sorry for the how you felt about your appointment and we will make sure we book you for the appropriate time in the future at our practice or give you the option to look for another dentist, if we do not have an appointments available on the day. We are heartbroken that we are left with a 4 star review this time, but we promise we will work harder next time so we win back that one star we lost this time. Please accept our genuine and heartfelt apology for your inconvenience. Your friendly Dental team, @Sunnynook Dentist

Fantastic experience: No disrespect to past clinics visited. However, subsequent to receiving treatment at Sunnynook Dentist, Forrest Hill, North Shore, Auckland, I have great pleasure in rating this the best Clinic. My initial phone-call to make an appointment was received in a friendly manner and obvious to me that Dr Lakshay Kumar has intentions for his Clinic to be a Happy Place. Completion of the administrative documents are clear & concise and the simple explanation of the diagnosis, applicable to the X-ray imaging was impressive. There is a thorough & methodical approach taken by all staff and the Interaction management skills displayed ensures a calmness continues for you feeling in a relaxed state throughout. So gentle was the tooth being extracted I had to be told by Dr Kumar the Tooth was no longer there. Above all, as soon as you enter this Clinic you sense a friendly environment. Your made to feel it’s all about you & how you feel. Congratulations to Sunnynook Dentist, a well managed, professionally run practice Ray Pierce
