Although it is a relatively new clear brace system invented in the 2000’s compared with old traditional metal brace technology. Ice braces have become an extremely popular addition to our orthodontic brace options at Azure Dental for improving your smile. Whilst Invisalign invisible braces are still just the most popular method for straightening teeth. Ice Braces are catching up and has a number advantages over Invisalign which is attractive to adult brace patients especially.
Whilst still offering an excellent degree of invisibility as they blend into the tooth extremely well, Ice braces work using the traditional method of dental braces which means that it is very effective and generally much quicker than Invisalign treatment (a series of clear aligners worn for approximately 22 hours per day); treatment times are usually completed in approximately half the time in comparison as they are working non stop 24 hours per day. This means they are able to apply the gentle light tooth movement forces very effectively to allow the teeth to move in the correct way with complete control.
fantastic customer service and excellent results. would highly recommend.
Cathleen Bridget17:00 14 Mar 20Went to Azure Dental for a few treatments including cosmetic bonding. It took a couple of days to get used to the change of appearance but I am absolutely made up with the results. Could not recommend Azure Dental enough.
Thomas Dunne12:02 11 Mar 20Azure dental team are very friendly and professional, I have been going there for 8 years with a very unusual dental problem (MMP) and highly recommend them. Now a pensioner, seen a number of dentists over the years, none of them compare to the attention to detail and the patients requirements that Dan and his team give.
Peter Noad07:52 05 Mar 20Highly highly recommend Azure! I had my teeth straightened as a child but they moved back. My teeth looked ok when I was a child but they look a million times better now! Dan did so much more with my teeth including shaping them and using different techniques that made a massive difference! I actually can’t believe how different my smile now looks!! I can’t believe they’re my teeth! I can’t thank Dan and the team enough for everything they have done! Another thing I really liked about Azure was how friendly all of the staff where and how they remember each individual patient and build a really great rapport.Thank you all for everything you have done ☺️Victoria Kirk13:39 29 Feb 20Excellent in every respect, caring, empathetic approach displayed by the Hygienists --- very professional team.
david cheetham10:36 27 Feb 20Cannot praise the staff here enough. From the minute you walk through the door to the end of your treatment you feel relaxed and in safe hands. Highly reccomend to anyone who needs treatment.Lisa Marie Birchall18:56 14 Feb 20
Jackie Hughes08:27 13 Feb 20Dan at Azure and all the wonderful dental nurses and receptionists are extremely professional and friendly. I am over the moon with my new smile after having braces for the last 7 months. I couldnt recommend them enough! Thank you, thank you!!Kelly Andersen17:00 07 Feb 20Azure Dental has restored my smile again! What a pleasant place to have dental treatment. From the moment I entered, I was welcomed with a warm smile by Nurse Sharnie. It felt nice to be treated like a person rather than a patient. Dr Chiggs was very calm and understanding with all my concerns. Considering I have not had much dental treatment before, I was anxious about the pain aspect. However, rest assured Dr Chiggs had the most gentle, midas touch and I can't recall any pain or discomfort during the whole procedure! In fact with some R&B classics playing in the background, it was all quite a calming and pleasant experience. I can't thank Dr Chiggs and Sharnie enough for what they have done for my confidence!
Aunkit V18:04 01 Feb 20Dentist Mr Dan was superb with me and fixed what I thought to be a major problem within 24 hrs. A top man and a first class service which I cannot recommend too highlyDavid RigbyFormby
david rigby15:51 24 Jan 20The hygenist Rebecca is excellent. She is professional, thorough and very gentle and puts the patient at ease. She is the best hygenist I have been to and I highly recommend her.
Lorraine Gradwell01:01 16 Jan 20I was so fortunate to have found Azure Dental. I have undergone a lot of treatment over the past months which I had put off for a long long time, the care given by Dan and his lovely team was excellent and I am smiling again with confidence.
LINDA MITCHELL20:16 15 Jan 20Now I can smile with confidence!!!Thank you so much Dan and your wonderful, friendly professional staff!!From the moment I stepped into Azure Dental for my first consultation with Dan I was made to feel comfortable and relaxed and left feeling confident and happy that I could achieve the result I wanted.Dan's professionalism, expertise, friendly and professional manner instills such confidence and his thorough attentionto detail has given me the smile I always wanted.I only wish I'd had the confidence to come to Dan at Azure Dental years ago!!

Joeann Hughes15:15 05 Dec 19I was very very nervous about going to the dentist until I met Dan and his team at Azure Dental. We all went for an adventure of sorting out my teeth,which I am now thankful for as they now look amazing. The whole team from the receptionist to the dental nurses is first class,each individual helped,supported and put me at ease during visits and treatments. Dan is fabulous and always explains everything he is going to do on each session. The biggest bonus is I didn’t feel a thing,no pain what so ever.Highly recommend Azure DentalLynn Prescott18:45 03 Oct 19Huge THANK YOU to Dan and the team for the hard work, had my braces taken off today, words can't describe how happy I am, and so glad that I went to Azure Dental that was reccomended to me by a friend, the treatment only took 7 months and the results are amazing! I'm loving my new smile 😁🌟Aleksandra Kusz21:30 25 Sep 19Absolutely amazing service from Dan and the team. Anyone who is terrified of the dentist-Dan is the man. Never felt so at ease and everything is explained in great detail. No embarrassment about any dental problems-all staff want to help. Check them out should you need a fab 5* dentist and dental team.
Anne H16:20 19 Aug 19Little disappointed at the small range of gins at reception but this was largely made up by the switch-off button on the music system playing Dan singing the 1994 hit by Green Day, Pulling Teeth.
peter geoghegan06:31 31 Jul 19I can highly recommend Azure Dental Formby . I have had general dentistry work and just had composite bonding on my front teeth which I am over the moon with. I am a very nervous patient but Dan and his Team are very caring and patient and put me at ease and explain everything. I have recommended Azure to my friends and family who are also more than happy with Azure. Best Dentist I have been to and will continue . Brilliant !!! And Thankyou for giving me my confidence back.

Alicia Shanahan17:17 13 Jun 19Always greeted warmly. Excellent professional, friendly service and treatment. Absolute confidence in all advice given and any identified issues.
Garry watkins19:00 21 May 19I would highly recommend azure dental, great service, professional, affordable and friendly. Dan and his team put me at ease while going through the process of having braces and my teeth bonded. Could not be happier with the final result Love my new smile 😁Kayley OBrien10:15 21 May 19Dan and his staff are very professional, friendly and helpful. Listened to my daughters concerns and provided her with treatments options. I would certainly recommend Azure Dental.
gill burke13:11 19 May 19I had my free consultation today with Ella and her team and I can honestly say that I have never had such a welcoming team at a dentist before. From entering the clinic the reception team were lovely and even helped to complete the registration for me as I have a medical condition that affects both arms so she completed it on the i-pad instead. Then I had a full check up including x-rays and reference photographs which included pricing for braces. Everyone was lovely, friendly and professional and I will definitely be back! C x
Claire Simons00:39 17 Apr 19After having dental traumas in the past this dentist practice has made me feel so reassured, calm and looked after. After having treatment I even received a follow up call 24 hrs later, on a Sunday, now that is a service 👌. I myself a ward sister of 17years in the NHS would recommend this practice. The staff are professional, efficient and so understanding ( my fear of the dentist), it is a clean, and very friendly environmentMelanie How14:30 24 Mar 19Really helpful and straight to the point advice. Friendly helpful staff. Thank you guys...Matty Westhead06:26 14 Mar 19I can not recommend Dan Hines enough, I’ve just finished my orthodontic treatment and I am absolutely thrilled with my results. He’s a brilliant dentist and his nurse Becky is fantastic too both so friendly, patient and genuinely lovely people. I did my research before choosing which dentist I would like to take on my case and I chose Dan as he is one of the most precise, thorough dentists I know. Both him and Becky have been so professional and welcoming throughout my whole treatment, explaining every stage and answering any of my concerns. If your looking for a brilliant dentist that is so down to earth and puts you at ease Dan is your man! Thank you so much for all your help!Steph Jayne Ramsurrun21:18 07 Mar 19I live on a narrow boat and continually cruise the UK’s inland waterways....I am also terrified of dentists. When I say terrified, I say it without exaggeration. So terrified am I, that I had spent the twelve months prior to seeing Dan and his team, eating paracetamol like they were Smarties. My husband and I where moored in Maghull, when he declared enough was enough and dragged me (kicking and screaming) by train, to Azure Dental. My initial consultation confirmed what I had suspected, I needed four teeth removed. I can not begin to explain my abject fear at that prospect. Dan was lovely, kind and truly sensitive. He reassured me that I would feel no pain and he was 100% right, doing everything to ensure that result. Consequently, I returned to this practice and followed through with my treatment, each time my fear abating. My boat is now moored in Market Harborough (East Midlands). I travelled for two hours by train to Manchester and then drove an hour to have Dan and his hygienist complete my treatment.Big shout out to the lovely young blonde woman who held my hand initially and her dark haired colleague (sorry I don’t know either of your names) who helped me remain calm and relaxed for the rest of my treatment. I truly appreciated both of you. XDan, I will see you again. Thank you most sincerely.Karen Thorburn21:03 06 Mar 19
Stephen Wilkinson08:51 10 Feb 19Couldn't fault this place at all! I had my fast invisible brace fitted by Dan a few years ago and he is amazing! All the staff go above and beyond to make sure you are okay and are super friendly. Then seen the hygienist today and again FAB! Friendly and amazing! Would highly recommeded again and again and again! Thank you xxxx
Georgia x17:06 06 Feb 19Always a professional service, all of the staff are welcoming and put you at ease from the moment you arrive.

Jessica Sharpe08:44 07 Sep 18Dan and all the team are exceptional! I had invisaligns set up with Dan, and his care and attention to detail is fantastic. Every step of the way Dan was available to advise and answer questions.

I look forward to many more visits. 👍🏻
J M21:12 29 Jun 18I live in Liverpool but regularly drive to Formby to attend Azure. I've been a patient at Azure for almost 4 years. I initially went for a free Invisalign assessment. Dan was very thorough in his assessment, and his passion for Dentistry was clearly evident. This convinced me to go ahead with full Invisalign treatment. I am extremely happy with the final result and have managed to convince two family members to sign up for full Invisalign treatment. I would wholeheartedly recommend Azure dental.

I will be much more at ease at my next appointment. A BIG thank you to Ella and Azure 😆😆😆xx

Carl Howard09:53 14 Dec 17Takes all the fear out of a visit to the Dentist 🙂Patricia Wordley18:01 20 Nov 17I am half way through implant treatment with Dan who was highly recommended to me by a friend. I have been extremely impressed with the care I have received. I was nervous as I needed implant surgery following an accident. Dan totaly put me at my ease and I never experianced any pain or discomfort during the implant and bone grafting procedure. Dan takes all the time you need to explain procedures to you and answer all your questions. If you are not sure or worried about possible treatment - go along for a consultation as I can highly recommend Dan!Cathy Hughes15:34 17 Nov 17I'm in the last few months of my treatment and my expectations have been blown away....Dan is a great dentist and a lovely man...his whole team are professional and friendly and I could not be happier. I am overwhelmed at the difference of having straight teeth is making to me and the brace isn't even off yet. 100% recommended!!

It is a joy to be able to go to the dentist and not have to worry about paying. Dan is "the smiling dentist" par excellance! He has a genuine concern for me & my teeth, & I know that I am in safe hands. Likewise, with his hygienist staff - always very thorough & professional. I couldn't recommend anyone more highly.Judy Riley12:55 21 Sep 17It is such a lovely environment, so helpful and understanding, cannot recommend Team Azure enough ! Thanks for putting up with me ! 😉Nicola Howard11:16 14 Sep 17As a nervous patient I have always struggled to keep up with my dental care but on my first visit to Azure a woman who was just leaving said to me that I would be fine. Dan is brilliant she said and she was right. My teeth were in quite a state as I had not visited a dentist in years. He reassured me and explained everything and the whole experience was so much better than I was expecting.That was a couple of years ago now and I no longer dread going to the dentist. Dan and all his team do a great job.Lin Nelson09:04 14 Sep 17On arrival at Azure Dental I immediately got a good vibe about the place. The receptionist was very friendly and the surroundings very modern without being clinical. Dan the dentist was also very friendly and welcoming. The consultation process consisted of a brief chat getting know my dental history and my needs and concerns, followed by a thorough examination of my mouth. Dan was very honest with his assessment and I felt assured that he was more concerned about my requirements and was not out to make money by providing unnecessary treatment. Overall I couldn't fault my visit and thoroughly recommend Azure.
John Phythian07:10 13 Sep 17I visited Azure after some awful treatment from an NHS dentist. I was nervous and apprehensive due to the treatment of my previous dentist but I need'nt worry, Azure were fab! They helped me put a treatment plan together, and sorted my pain from an infection out right away. Root canal treatment followed and Elaine was so good, she put me at ease all the time. I am booked in for more treatment with them and am going to stick with Azure for the foreseeable future! Thanks to the whole team x
J Murphy14:53 07 Sep 17I've been with this dental practice for just over a year. The team who work there are really friendly and helpful and my dentist Dan Hines is great and very professional. Very welcoming atmosphere (not your typical dentists). I have had various procedures there including fillings and a tooth extraction and I didn't feel a thing. I have been very happy with my experience there and would recommend them to anyone.

Margy Donoghue18:46 08 Aug 17From previous experience I know how important it is to get the right dentist. Dan is the best dentist I have ever been to. I had extensive treatment over a few months; it was pain free and I am really, really pleased with the end result. From the first appointment, Dan explained all the options available and explained each phase step by step. Most of all I always felt that Dan cared about getting it right and was concerned that I was happy with the results. The atmosphere at this practice is calm and relaxing and the staff are welcoming. I would highly recommend this practice.
Sue Wynne21:03 03 Aug 17Best dentist ever!! Dan and his team are lovely. I was so ashamed of my teeth when I came for the consultation. Every visit I was actually excited for my appt. yesterday my brace has come off and I can't stop smiling showing my teeth, can't wait to smile on my wedding day showing my straight teeth! Definitely recommend anyone to go here!! Will miss coming for an appt. ☺️Hannah Morton09:32 02 Aug 17
Laura14:08 23 Jul 17Very professional, very welcoming, very reassuring teeth. Mouth all healthy .As above, but very inpressed when asked Dan do my teeth need any more attention (cosmetic) her said they were still good for awhile yet. No hard sell at Azure Dental,Formby
Mary Churchill08:12 19 Jul 17Been going to Azure Dental since they opened and they have always been superb. I recommended by Son to go too.

Long may it continue .........Margaret West01:49 19 Jul 17I have had clear braces fitted in my 40s and although I was a bit concerned I might be too old Dan was so nice and very easy to talk to. I am half way through now and know I will be delighted with the results. I would definitely recommend the practice �Ann-Marie Crosby18:43 18 Jul 17Excellent dentist felt so comfortable, Had a consultation with the dentist who was very helpful and had my braces fitted a week later....😁Nic Coleman08:49 10 Jul 17I had a consultation with Elaina and I was really pleased with the professional service. The process was well explained and I felt very comfortable. I was also very impressed with the clean environment.
Alexa Collins11:10 05 Jul 17Excellent customer service and genuinely nice people. After a lot of research and a number of consultations I chose Dan for my Six Month Smile and he didn't disappoint, quick and efficient. I have since needed a couple of minor repairs to my retainer, on the first occasion I was concerned it was going to be very expensive but it wasn't it was a reasonable amount which reaffirmed my opinion. Highly recommended!Stephanie Macnab05:47 05 Jul 17After fearing the dentist for years Dan at Azure Dental has made going to the dentist painless. Definitely the place to go for great service. 
Elaine Watkins07:53 30 Jun 17Appointment with Dan on Tuesday, he rebuilt my broken tooth on the same day, made-up, not to pricey, thankyou Azure 😬😬😬

nic Howard14:21 14 Jun 17I was recommended to go for an assessment to Azure Dental. I have had some terrible experiences with dentists over a lifetime of difficulties with my teeth and I was a little sceptical. However from the moment I walked in I was treated brilliantly. All the staff were helpful and friendly. The consultation with Dan was the most thorough I have ever experienced. He is fastidious, obviously extremely knowledgable and competent. In addition he was polite, caring and courteous. He was able to make a difficult diagnosis with care and accuracy. I have no hesitation in recommending them. I shall be staying with them now I have found them.David Alexander04:47 07 Jun 17Such a good dentist with lovely service, I had my brace removed today and can't thank Dan enough, finally happy with my new smile!

Despite the amount of attention required , I don't think I've ever had such a painfree dental experience in my life. "Dan's the Man" Thank you so much and your super duper assistant . Didn't quite appreciate her raving about Costa toast though, when my stomach was screaming for me to try out my new tooth on anything at all, ha ha .

michelle xu07:49 11 Jul 16I have always suffered from gum infections leading to receding gums and ultimately loss of teeth. I have a very unreasonable fear of dentist. I attended Azure for a consultation which was very thorough . I was assured that my fear would be treated with respect. My next appointment went absolutely superb. I have another appointment in the near future and I am not feeling the fear! Would absolutely recommend Azure to anyone.Tina Bassnett17:41 02 Jul 16Currently undergoing comestic dentistry work.

I would recommend anyone after the treatments they offer to go.Ellen Carter19:33 30 Jun 16Iam currently undergoing treatment with Dan and his team and can't thank them enough. I was so apprehensive and nervous regarding dentists but no more after visiting Azure. They really do put you at ease and endeavour to make your treatment pain free.

Ice clear braces is a cosmetic brace system that can be used in both simple fast brace straight teeth treatments, or more complex cases of orthodontic treatment. Cosmetic dentistry for fastbrace cases focuses on straightening the front six to ten teeth at the top and/ or the bottom jaws. By doing this, it can work quicker than braces which also aim to move the more securely embedded rear molar teeth. Whilst there are cases where this is necessary from a functional dental perspective, for many people a smooth straight even beautiful smile is their main aim. The Ice system is effective when applied to gap closure, crowded or crooked teeth and is also made less visible through the use of crystal clear brackets and white .
“Highly highly recommend Azure! I had my teeth straightened as a child but they moved back. My teeth looked ok when I was a child but they look a million times better now! Dan did so much more with my teeth including shaping them and using different techniques that made a massive difference! I actually can’t believe how different my smile now looks!! I can’t believe they’re my teeth! I can’t thank Dan and the team enough for everything they have done!
Another thing I really liked about Azure was how friendly all of the staff where and how they remember each individual patient and build a really great rapport.
Thank you all for everything you have done ☺️”
Victoria’s Testimonial on Facebook- Feb’20
Dan at Azure and all the wonderful dental nurses and receptionists are extremely professional and friendly. I am over…
Posted by Kelly Andersen on Friday, 7 February 2020
Regular checks by our Azure Dental dentist team ensures that the treatment moves forward as planned. Any necessary adjustments to the position of the brackets as well as the size and shapes of wires used for the necessary tooth movements are then made. Review appointments are arranged a regular 4 weekly intervals to keep everything moving smoothly into line as quickly as possible.
Although Ice braces use wires and brackets like traditional braces (with clear translucent brackets rather than metal brackets). They are only very slightly more visible than Invisalign and a lot of patients prefer them because of the speed at which they work. This is especially important for patients who are aiming to have their teeth straightened by a certain date; perhaps a wedding or a special holiday. We are always happy to give our patients a potential expected treatment time that these braces will take to work- which is usually between 6 and 9 months, in order that they can plan ahead. Of course, each person is a totally unique individual case and times do vary based on the starting positions of the teeth and which teeth need the most movement. The canine teeth have extremely large roots and so always require more time and effort to move. The types of movements required also determines the time needed. Teeth needing simple forward and back movement are simpler and easier to move than teeth requiring large rotations or twisting. This is because the bone surrounding the teeth has to become flexible enough to allow each individual tooth movement to occur.
The flexibilty in the bone once the teeth have moved is the reason why that once straight, teeth need retainers to ensure they stay in there new positions. If not held stable while the bone tightens back around the teeth roots this is what allows further uncontrolled movement when the brace is taken off. To make sure that your hard work and effort to get straight teeth is maintained long term Azure Dental provide a “Belt and Braces” technique of retention. We belive this is the best and only way to ensure tooth stability. This technique uses both a fixed wire retainer which is glued onto the back of the front 6 teeth before the brace is even taken off and then a night time removable Essix style retainer is then manufactured from moulds taken of your teeth for you to wear while sleeping.
As with all types of braces and especially important for braces which use wires and brackets, special care needs to be taken when cleaning the teeth to avoid food becoming trapped. If left for a period of time, any food particles will start to affect the teeth. This can result in both extensive gum inflammation and swelling along with an increased risk of tooth decay. This can also cause darkening of tooth colour with staining while the braces are in place. But it also slows down tooth movement due to the extra friction built up around the bracket and wire, which is what moves the crown of the teeth into position.
We always discuss and demonstrate the best method of cleaning with you during your consultation and brace fitting appointments, as well as during the follow-up review visits to make sure everyone is able to look after their teeth properly.
Alongside clear braces these days modern cosmetic dentistry choices have developed considerably over the years. Alternatives to braces include treatments such as composite bonding or veneers, porcelain veneers or even dental implants in certain circumstances. These techniques are able to provide a more instant Hollywood style smile makeover by reshaping and covering the natural tooth structure.
Each treatment has its own features and benefits that give each technique advantages in the end result achieveble. A lot will depend on each person’s individual tooth condition and tooth positions. Which option or combination of options are chosen to achieve their treatment goals is unique based on these factors.
Quite often a treatment combination of braces to straighten the teeth then whitening to lift the colour and then composite bonding to repair any chips and wear damage are used to achieve the best possible outcome and a beautiful smile.
We offer a Free Consultation for clear braces to enable you to have all the correct information you need to choose the best straight teeth treatment option.

I am over the moon with my new smile after having braces for the last 7 months. I couldnt recommend them enough! Thank you, thank you!!Kelly Andersen17:00 07 Feb 20Azure Dental has restored my smile again! What a pleasant place to have dental treatment. From the moment I entered, I was welcomed with a warm smile by Nurse Sharnie. It felt nice to be treated like a person rather than a patient. Dr Chiggs was very calm and understanding with all my concerns. Considering I have not had much dental treatment before, I was anxious about the pain aspect. However, rest assured Dr Chiggs had the most gentle, midas touch and I can't recall any pain or discomfort during the whole procedure! In fact with some R&B classics playing in the background, it was all quite a calming and pleasant experience. I can't thank Dr Chiggs and Sharnie enough for what they have done for my confidence!Aunkit V18:04 01 Feb 20Dentist Mr Dan was superb with me and fixed what I thought to be a major problem within 24 hrs.

The whole team from the receptionist to the dental nurses is first class,each individual helped,supported and put me at ease during visits and treatments. Dan is fabulous and always explains everything he is going to do on each session. The biggest bonus is I didn’t feel a thing,no pain what so ever.Highly recommend Azure DentalLynn Prescott18:45 03 Oct 19Huge THANK YOU to Dan and the team for the hard work, had my braces taken off today, words can't describe how happy I am, and so glad that I went to Azure Dental that was reccomended to me by a friend, the treatment only took 7 months and the results are amazing!

Never felt so at ease and everything is explained in great detail. No embarrassment about any dental problems-all staff want to help. Check them out should you need a fab 5* dentist and dental team.Anne H16:20 19 Aug 19Little disappointed at the small range of gins at reception but this was largely made up by the switch-off button on the music system playing Dan singing the 1994 hit by Green Day, Pulling Teeth.peter geoghegan06:31 31 Jul 19I can highly recommend Azure Dental Formby . I have had general dentistry work and just had composite bonding on my front teeth which I am over the moon with.

Listened to my daughters concerns and provided her with treatments options. I would certainly recommend Azure Dental.gill burke13:11 19 May 19I had my free consultation today with Ella and her team and I can honestly say that I have never had such a welcoming team at a dentist before. From entering the clinic the reception team were lovely and even helped to complete the registration for me as I have a medical condition that affects both arms so she completed it on the i-pad instead. Then I had a full check up including x-rays and reference photographs which included pricing for braces. Everyone was lovely, friendly and professional and I will definitely be back! C xClaire Simons00:39 17 Apr 19After having dental traumas in the past this dentist practice has made me feel so reassured, calm and looked after. After having treatment I even received a follow up call 24 hrs later, on a Sunday, now that is a service 👌. I myself a ward sister of 17years in the NHS would recommend this practice. The staff are professional, efficient and so understanding ( my fear of the dentist), it is a clean, and very friendly environmentMelanie How14:30 24 Mar 19Really helpful and straight to the point advice. Friendly helpful staff. Thank you guys...Matty Westhead06:26 14 Mar 19I can not recommend Dan Hines enough, I’ve just finished my orthodontic treatment and I am absolutely thrilled with my results. He’s a brilliant dentist and his nurse Becky is fantastic too both so friendly, patient and genuinely lovely people. I did my research before choosing which dentist I would like to take on my case and I chose Dan as he is one of the most precise, thorough dentists I know. Both him and Becky have been so professional and welcoming throughout my whole treatment, explaining every stage and answering any of my concerns. If your looking for a brilliant dentist that is so down to earth and puts you at ease Dan is your man! Thank you so much for all your help!Steph Jayne Ramsurrun21:18 07 Mar 19I live on a narrow boat and continually cruise the UK’s inland waterways....I am also terrified of dentists. When I say terrified, I say it without exaggeration. So terrified am I, that I had spent the twelve months prior to seeing Dan and his team, eating paracetamol like they were Smarties. My husband and I where moored in Maghull, when he declared enough was enough and dragged me (kicking and screaming) by train, to Azure Dental. My initial consultation confirmed what I had suspected, I needed four teeth removed. I can not begin to explain my abject fear at that prospect. Dan was lovely, kind and truly sensitive. He reassured me that I would feel no pain and he was 100% right, doing everything to ensure that result. Consequently, I returned to this practice and followed through with my treatment, each time my fear abating. My boat is now moored in Market Harborough (East Midlands). I travelled for two hours by train to Manchester and then drove an hour to have Dan and his hygienist complete my treatment.Big shout out to the lovely young blonde woman who held my hand initially and her dark haired colleague (sorry I don’t know either of your names) who helped me remain calm and relaxed for the rest of my treatment. I truly appreciated both of you. XDan, I will see you again. Thank you most sincerely.Karen Thorburn21:03 06 Mar 19Stephen Wilkinson08:51 10 Feb 19Couldn't fault this place at all! I had my fast invisible brace fitted by Dan a few years ago and he is amazing! All the staff go above and beyond to make sure you are okay and are super friendly. Then seen the hygienist today and again FAB! Friendly and amazing! Would highly recommeded again and again and again!

I look forward to many more visits. 👍🏻J M21:12 29 Jun 18I live in Liverpool but regularly drive to Formby to attend Azure. I've been a patient at Azure for almost 4 years. I initially went for a free Invisalign assessment. Dan was very thorough in his assessment, and his passion for Dentistry was clearly evident. This convinced me to go ahead with full Invisalign treatment. I am extremely happy with the final result and have managed to convince two family members to sign up for full Invisalign treatment. I would wholeheartedly recommend Azure dental.Hassan Aziz18:16 28 Jun 18The service at azure dental practice is excellent.

I have been extremely impressed with the care I have received. I was nervous as I needed implant surgery following an accident. Dan totaly put me at my ease and I never experianced any pain or discomfort during the implant and bone grafting procedure.

Dan is brilliant she said and she was right. My teeth were in quite a state as I had not visited a dentist in years. He reassured me and explained everything and the whole experience was so much better than I was expecting.That was a couple of years ago now and I no longer dread going to the dentist. Dan and all his team do a great job.Lin Nelson09:04 14 Sep 17On arrival at Azure Dental I immediately got a good vibe about the place. The receptionist was very friendly and the surroundings very modern without being clinical. Dan the dentist was also very friendly and welcoming. The consultation process consisted of a brief chat getting know my dental history and my needs and concerns, followed by a thorough examination of my mouth. Dan was very honest with his assessment and I felt assured that he was more concerned about my requirements and was not out to make money by providing unnecessary treatment. Overall I couldn't fault my visit and thoroughly recommend Azure.John Phythian07:10 13 Sep 17I visited Azure after some awful treatment from an NHS dentist. I was nervous and apprehensive due to the treatment of my previous dentist but I need'nt worry, Azure were fab! They helped me put a treatment plan together, and sorted my pain from an infection out right away. Root canal treatment followed and Elaine was so good, she put me at ease all the time. I am booked in for more treatment with them and am going to stick with Azure for the foreseeable future!

I have had some terrible experiences with dentists over a lifetime of difficulties with my teeth and I was a little sceptical. However from the moment I walked in I was treated brilliantly. All the staff were helpful and friendly. The consultation with Dan was the most thorough I have ever experienced. He is fastidious, obviously extremely knowledgable and competent. In addition he was polite, caring and courteous. He was able to make a difficult diagnosis with care and accuracy. I have no hesitation in recommending them. I shall be staying with them now I have found them.David Alexander04:47 07 Jun 17Such a good dentist with lovely service, I had my brace removed today and can't thank Dan enough, finally happy with my new smile!
