Baker Street Dental Review 2026: London’s Best Emergency Dentist — and Much More Besides

Looking for an honest Baker Street Dental review? This is the most thorough independent assessment of Baker Street Dental — a multi-branch private dental group established in 1973 with clinics in Marylebone W1, Spitalfields E1 and Earls Court SW5, a genuine 24/7 emergency service, over 1,000 verified patient reviews, and one of the longest operating histories in London private dentistry. Below we cover all three locations, the clinical team, the full treatment menu, verified pricing, what 1,033 reviews actually say, and the handful of concerns that prospective patients should know about before booking.

At a Glance: Key Facts

Introduction: Why We Reviewed Baker Street Dental

Most London dental practices are, if we’re honest, broadly similar: a handful of treatment chairs, a handful of dentists, a website full of before-and-after photography, and a review page that looks good until you check the platforms they don’t link to. Baker Street Dental is different in ways that are immediately verifiable. It was founded in 1973 — making it one of the oldest private cosmetic dental practices in London, and the kind of institution that outlasts trends rather than chasing them. It operates a genuine 24/7 emergency service from its Baker Street flagship. It has accumulated over 1,000 verified patient reviews on Birdeye, which is an unusually large and transparent review base for a practice of this type. And it publishes its prices — something that distinguishes it from the majority of premium London practices, including two of the three we’ve reviewed in this series.

This Baker Street Dental review covers the Marylebone flagship at 102 Baker Street, the Spitalfields clinic at Artillery Lane near Liverpool Street, and the Earls Court practice on Old Brompton Road. We assess the clinical team, the full treatment menu, what 1,033 reviews tell us about the patient experience, what the prices actually include, where the practice genuinely leads its market, and where a small number of patient accounts raise questions worth knowing about.

Readers following our London dental review series will find this a useful complement to our existing assessments — particularly our Dentexcel Harley Street review and our Bespoke Dental Clinics London review, which cover the specialist and emergency ends of the private dental market respectively.

Locations & Getting There

Baker Street — 102 Baker Street, W1U 6FY (Flagship)

The flagship practice sits at 102 Baker Street, in Marylebone — one of central London’s more pleasant neighbourhoods, and one with a patient demographic that has kept private dental practices busy for generations. Baker Street Station (Bakerloo, Circle, Hammersmith & City, Jubilee, Metropolitan lines) is directly outside the door; you couldn’t ask for a more connected address. Bond Street (Elizabeth, Central, Jubilee lines) is a ten-minute walk south. Regent’s Park is a similar distance north. Bus routes along Baker Street include the 13, 74, 82, 113, 274 and the Baker Street–Oxford Street corridor. For the 24/7 emergency service — the practice’s single most distinctive feature — the Baker Street tube connection is operationally relevant at any hour: even at 3am, night buses and the Night Tube on the Jubilee and Victoria lines feed into Baker Street interchange.

Spitalfields — 9 Artillery Lane, E1 7LP

Artillery Lane runs off Bishopsgate, moments from Liverpool Street Station (Elizabeth, Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan lines and National Rail services), making the Spitalfields branch exceptionally convenient for City workers and for East London patients approaching from Shoreditch, Bethnal Green or Hackney via Overground. The branch operates seven days a week from 9am to 5pm. It does not carry the 24-hour emergency provision of the Baker Street flagship, but as a daytime clinic for general, cosmetic and restorative treatment in the City fringe it is well positioned.

Earls Court — 221–225 Old Brompton Road, SW5 0EA

The third branch is on Old Brompton Road in Earls Court, served by Earls Court Station (District and Piccadilly lines). This is West London’s entry point to the Baker Street Dental Group — serving patients from Fulham, Chelsea, Kensington and the wider SW postcode corridor who want access to the group’s treatment range without crossing to Marylebone or the City. West Kensington Station (District line) is similarly walkable. Specific opening hours for this branch are not published separately on the clinic’s website; patients planning to visit should confirm hours when booking.

A 50-Year History: What It Actually Means

Baker Street Dental was founded in 1973 — which means it predates most of the Invisalign-era cosmetic dental practices that dominate London today by decades. It was, according to the practice’s own published history, one of London’s first dental practices to offer high-quality cosmetic dentistry as a distinct service. At the time, cosmetic dentistry was the province of a very small number of Harley Street specialists; Baker Street was early to the game and has been playing it for over fifty years.

The practical significance of this longevity is easy to underestimate. Fifty-plus years in London private dentistry means: a referral network built over decades, a team that has treated generations of the same families, institutional knowledge of complex rehabilitation cases that younger practices are still accumulating, and the kind of reputation that persists through economic cycles and market fashions. The claim of 250 years of combined clinical experience across the team is consistent with a practice of this vintage, and it’s not a number achievable by a practice that opened five years ago.

It also means, frankly, that the practice carries habits formed across different eras — in both the positive sense (deep patient relationships, unhurried consultations) and the sense that any long-established institution needs periodic scrutiny to confirm its standards have kept pace with the field. The review data suggests they largely have.

The Clinical Team

Baker Street Dental’s team structure reflects the breadth of its treatment menu: specialist-grade practitioners in orthodontics, oral surgery, endodontics and implantology working alongside experienced general and cosmetic dentists. Three names emerge consistently from patient reviews across platforms.

Dr Samir P. Boulis — Principal Dentist & Owner

Dr Boulis is the registered owner and principal dentist of the Baker Street Dental practice, listed as the responsible person with the CQC for the flagship clinic (location ID 1-220458224). Patient reviews describe him as highly skilled, knowledgeable and brilliant — one long-standing patient noting that Dr Boulis had treated them over a decade and that the experience was consistently outstanding. His tenure at the practice positions him as the continuity figure across its multi-decade history, and the depth of patient loyalty he generates — specifically the proportion of long-term repeat patients who name him — is a strong signal of clinical quality and interpersonal skill.

Dr Rena Millet

Dr Millet brings over thirty years of clinical experience to the practice and is described by patients as professional, kind and reassuring. The consistency with which anxious patients specifically mention her by name suggests she has a particular facility with nervous dental visitors — a quality that is difficult to train and genuinely valuable in a practice that handles a significant volume of emergency and new-patient appointments where anxiety levels tend to be high.

Dr Godwin (Godwin Afeeva)

Dr Godwin is consistently praised in patient reviews for professional, skilled treatment delivery. Review references place him in the context of complex procedures where patients describe feeling confident and well-informed throughout. His name appearing independently and positively across separate review platforms — without any prompting — carries the same signal value as equivalent mentions for Dr Boulis and Dr Millet.

Specialist Team

Baker Street Dental’s published specialist roster includes a specialist orthodontist, a specialist oral surgeon, specialist endodontists, and an implantologist — though individual names within the specialist team are not consistently accessible in public sources. For a group practice of this longevity, having these disciplines in-house rather than relying on external referrals represents both clinical and logistical value for patients requiring multi-stage treatment.

Frequently Praised Team Qualities

• Gentle, pain-free treatment delivery across multiple dentists
• Clear explanation of procedures before and during treatment
• Sensitivity to dental anxiety and phobia — particularly Dr Millet
• Calm and professional demeanour during high-stakes emergency appointments
• Strong post-treatment follow-up and aftercare communication
• Reception team described as friendly and welcoming across the majority of reviews

Services & Treatments

Baker Street Dental covers the full spectrum of private dental care — from routine hygiene through to full-arch smile makeovers and round-the-clock emergency intervention. The breadth of treatment types under one group is one of the practice’s clearest differentiators from smaller single-site practices.

General & Preventive Dentistry

• Dental examinations and oral health checks
• Hygiene appointments and scale & polish
• Composite tooth-coloured fillings
• Sedation therapy for anxious patients
• Mouth guards and occlusal splints

Cosmetic Dentistry

• Teeth whitening (in-surgery and take-home; Zoom whitening referenced in offers)
• Composite bonding — from £350 per tooth
• E-Max porcelain veneers — from £600 per unit
• Hollywood Smile packages — full porcelain veneer smile makeover with “Trial Smile” preview (patients see proposed result before any preparation begins)
• Smile makeovers (combined treatment planning)

Orthodontics

• Invisalign Express — from £2,000, approximately 6 months
• Invisalign Lite — for mild to moderate correction
• Invisalign Comprehensive — from £3,500, approximately 18 months
• Fixed braces (specialist orthodontist on team)

Restorative Dentistry

• Dental implants (titanium, single-tooth and multi-tooth)
• Porcelain crowns and bridges
• Root canal treatment (endodontics — specialist endodontists on team)
• Inlays and onlays

Oral Surgery

• Wisdom tooth extraction (one of the most-reviewed services; patient feedback is overwhelmingly positive)
• Surgical extractions (specialist oral surgeon on team)
• Bone grafting for implant preparation

Emergency Dentistry — The Flagship Service

• 24 hours, 7 days a week at the Baker Street clinic — a genuine, operational commitment, not a marketing aspiration
• Emergency treatment for dental abscess, acute toothache, broken and chipped teeth
• Emergency fillings, lost crowns, knocked-out teeth and dental trauma
• Also accessible via the linked platform 24hour-emergencydentist.co.uk
• Patients have been seen same-day on Christmas Day and Bank Holidays per review accounts

Pricing & Value for Money

Baker Street Dental’s willingness to publish treatment prices is, in the context of London private dentistry, genuinely unusual and deserves credit. Most practices — including the other clinics in this review series — either don’t publish prices at all or bury them behind a consultation requirement. Baker Street states its fees openly, which makes comparison straightforward and removes one of the most common sources of patient anxiety before a first appointment.

Published Prices

• Composite bonding: from £350 per tooth
• E-Max veneers: from £600 per unit
• Invisalign Express: from £2,000 (approx. 6-month treatment)
• Invisalign Lite: mid-range package for moderate correction
• Invisalign Comprehensive: from £3,500 (approx. 18-month treatment)
• Payment plans: Available — specific 0% finance terms not confirmed in public sources; confirm directly

Market Context

Baker Street Dental’s published pricing is broadly competitive by central London standards. Composite bonding from £350 per tooth is mid-market for London W1 — cheaper practices exist in outer zones, but within Marylebone the price point is reasonable for a practice with this review volume and clinical track record. E-Max veneers from £600 per unit is at the accessible end of London veneer pricing (specialist Harley Street practices routinely charge £1,200–£2,500 per tooth). The Invisalign pricing — Express from £2,000, Comprehensive from £3,500 — sits in the mainstream London range and is comparable with established practices that don’t hold Diamond Apex status.

Patient Feedback on Pricing

Cost is noted as higher-than-average in a portion of reviews — a minority theme, but a consistent one. The general pattern in the review data is that patients who describe specific treatments consider the cost justified by the outcome and the experience; it’s typically patients who had an expectation mismatch (particularly for emergency appointments, where urgency premiums apply) who express dissatisfaction. At least one review from January 2024 described feeling the charges were excessive after a hygiene visit, and mentioned a sense of being pushed toward additional treatments. These are isolated accounts rather than a dominant theme, but they’re worth noting for patients attending for routine rather than urgent care.

Our Assessment

The published fee structure is Baker Street Dental’s most immediately appealing practical differentiator from competitor London private practices. Knowing that composite bonding is £350 per tooth before you pick up the phone represents a level of respect for patients’ time and decision-making that many practices still refuse to extend. The pricing itself is fair for the location and the quality of care the review data suggests — not the cheapest option in London, but far from the most expensive, and the transparency earns genuine trust before the patient has even sat in the chair.

What Patients Actually Say: Review Analysis

Birdeye — 4.7/5 (1,033 reviews)

The Birdeye review count is the single most impressive data point in Baker Street Dental’s public profile. 1,033 reviews is an extraordinary volume for an independent London dental practice — many well-regarded competitors have fewer than fifty. A 4.7-star average across that volume has genuine statistical weight; with a review base this size, a handful of negative outliers can’t skew the result meaningfully. The reviewers are overwhelmingly private patients (the practice is private-only), who have chosen to leave feedback unprompted. Recurring themes across the Birdeye reviews are: pain-free treatment delivery, specific praise for Dr Godwin, Dr Boulis and Dr Millet by name, highly responsive emergency care, and a friendly and professional atmosphere. Negative themes — where they appear — cluster around pricing and, in a smaller number of cases, waiting times at busier periods.

Google Reviews — 500+ Claimed 5-Star Reviews

The practice claims 500+ verified 5-star Google reviews on its own website and marketing materials. We cannot independently confirm the exact Google rating and count at the time of writing (the clinic’s website was not directly accessible for scraping), but this figure is consistent with a practice that has actively maintained its Google Business Profile and the review volume on Birdeye. The emergency dental service in particular generates review traffic from first-time patients — people in acute pain who were seen quickly and left feeling better; they tend to write reviews and they tend to be effusive.

Trustpilot — 4-Star Rating

The Trustpilot profile for bakerstreetdental.com carries a 4-star overall rating. Separately, the practice also appears on Trustpilot via its 24hour-emergencydentist.co.uk platform, with a further set of reviews predominantly relating to emergency appointments. The slight step down from 4.7 on Birdeye to 4 stars on Trustpilot is not unusual — Trustpilot’s demographic skews toward patients who have something specific to say, positive or negative, rather than providing a broad population sample.

CQC Registration

The Baker Street flagship (102 Baker Street, W1U 6FY) is registered with the Care Quality Commission under location ID 1-220458224, with Dr Samir Boulis as the registered responsible person. The CQC last inspected the clinic in July 2013 — a date that is now significantly in the past. As with all dental practices in England, the CQC does not publish formal Good/Outstanding ratings for dentists, and the inspection cadence for dental practices under current CQC frameworks is less frequent than for other healthcare settings. The absence of a more recent inspection record is not inherently concerning — it reflects the regulatory framework rather than any finding — but prospective patients seeking post-2020 inspection data should be aware it is not publicly available for this practice.

What Patients Love Most

1. The 24/7 Emergency Service Is Genuinely Operational. This is not “emergency appointments available by request during business hours” — it is a round-the-clock service that review evidence confirms is active on Christmas Day, Bank Holidays, and late into the night. Patients describe being seen within thirty minutes of calling at 11pm with a dental abscess, or being treated on New Year’s Day for a broken tooth. In a city where dental emergencies routinely result in A&E visits or days of unmanaged pain, this is the single most distinctive practical advantage Baker Street Dental holds over virtually every independent London practice of comparable size.
2. An Extraordinary Review Volume. 1,033 reviews on Birdeye alone, 500+ claimed 5-star Google reviews, separate Trustpilot presence. No other independent London dental practice in our review series approaches this review footprint. The sheer volume provides a statistical confidence in the 4.7-star average that smaller review pools simply cannot match. A practice with 40 reviews and a 4.9 average tells you much less than one with 1,033 reviews and a 4.7 average.
3. Dr Millet’s Care for Anxious Patients. Across multiple independently written reviews, anxious and phobic patients specifically name Dr Millet as the reason their experience was positive. One reviewer described years of dental avoidance ending at Baker Street Dental; another described Dr Millet’s approach to a nervous patient during an extraction as “the most reassuring thing I’ve ever experienced at a dentist.” Dental anxiety is estimated to affect roughly half the adult population in the UK; having a team member patients specifically seek out for this reason is a real clinical and commercial asset.
4. Wisdom Tooth Extraction Is a Proven Strength. The most frequently reviewed specific treatment — across both Birdeye and Trustpilot — is wisdom tooth removal, and the feedback is overwhelmingly positive: “super calm,” “completely pain-free,” “brilliant” and “would come back for any dental work” are representative phrases. This matters because wisdom tooth extractions are among the most anxiety-inducing dental procedures; patients who’ve had a positive experience here trust the practice for everything else.
5. Published Prices — A Rare Transparency. The fee schedule on bakerstreetdental.com is the most comprehensive published pricing we’ve encountered across the London dental practices in this review series. Composite bonding from £350, veneers from £600, Invisalign from £2,000 — these are real, plannable numbers that allow prospective patients to assess affordability before any consultation commitment. In a market characterised by price opacity, this is a meaningful differentiator.
6. Fifty-Plus Years of Institutional Depth. Founded in 1973, Baker Street Dental carries the kind of institutional knowledge that only accrues over decades. Patients who’ve attended for ten or more years — and there are multiple such reviewers — describe continuity of care, recognition at the desk, and the accumulated trust that comes from a practice that has seen their dental health evolve over time. That is not something a practice founded in 2018 can offer.
7. Friendly Reception Culture. The reception and administrative team attracts specific positive mentions in a meaningful proportion of reviews — something that is far from universal in London private dental practices, where front-of-house staff are often invisible in patient feedback. Being welcomed warmly when you’re already nervous about a dental appointment reduces anxiety measurably; the Baker Street Dental front-of-house culture appears to understand this.
8. The Hollywood Smile “Trial Smile” Process. Baker Street Dental’s approach to smile makeovers — offering a “Trial Smile” mockup using temporary composite so patients can evaluate the proposed shape, size and shade of veneers before any tooth preparation takes place — is the right way to handle high-investment cosmetic work. It reduces the risk of post-treatment regret, aligns patient expectation with clinical reality, and positions the practice as thoughtful rather than production-line in its cosmetic offer.

Areas for Consideration (Constructive Feedback)

1. A Serious Documented Patient Safety Incident. One independently verified review describes a patient who had clearly recorded a penicillin allergy on their pre-consultation medical form, and was subsequently prescribed penicillin by a treating dentist. The patient caught the error before taking the medication, which averted a potentially serious allergic reaction. Medication allergy errors of this type — where a patient’s own documented history is disregarded in prescribing — represent a significant clinical governance failure, regardless of outcome. This is a single documented account and may not reflect current prescribing practice, but given the potential severity of consequences in such cases, prospective patients should confirm verbally with their treating dentist that any allergies noted on forms have been reviewed and understood.
2. Pricing Perceptions for Routine Appointments. While the published fee schedule is a positive differentiator, a minority of reviews describe feeling that pricing escalated unexpectedly during what they had expected to be routine appointments. One 2024 reviewer described a cleaning appointment as generating excessive charges and accompanying upselling pressure. This isn’t a dominant theme — but it’s a consistent enough thread (appearing on both Trustpilot and Birdeye) to warrant mention. Confirming the full scope and cost of a planned appointment before proceeding is always advisable.
3. Wait Times at Busy Periods. The combination of a 24/7 emergency service, three locations, and a high patient volume means that waiting times at the Baker Street flagship — particularly in peak hours — can be longer than at smaller, single-site practices. Several reviews mention frustration at being kept waiting after scheduled appointments. For elective, non-urgent appointments, booking outside peak morning slots and confirming the clinic is running on time before leaving home is a practical mitigation.
4. CQC Inspection Currency. The most recent published CQC inspection for the Baker Street clinic dates to July 2013 — over twelve years ago. While dental practice CQC inspection cadence is governed by a different framework than hospital or GP settings, and the absence of a more recent inspection doesn’t indicate any failing, the inspection data available to prospective patients is notably dated. Patients seeking the reassurance of recent regulatory scrutiny will not find it in the publicly available CQC records for this practice.
5. Limited Specialist Credential Visibility. While the practice confirms that specialist-level practitioners cover orthodontics, oral surgery and endodontics, individual specialist team members are not prominently named or credentialled on the public-facing website in the same way that Dr Cohen at Dentexcel or Dr Hussain at Bespoke Dental are. For patients specifically booking for specialist treatment (orthodontics, implant surgery, root canal), asking explicitly who will be treating them and what their specialist qualifications are is good practice — and Baker Street Dental should make this information more readily accessible.
6. Earls Court Branch Information Is Limited. Published details for the Old Brompton Road, Earls Court branch — including confirmed opening hours, which dentists practice there, and which treatments are available — are not comprehensively presented in publicly accessible sources. Patients planning to use the Earls Court location should contact the practice to confirm specifics rather than assuming it carries the full Baker Street range and hours.

Who Is Baker Street Dental Best For?

✅ Excellent choice for:

• Anyone requiring genuine out-of-hours or overnight emergency dental treatment in London — Baker Street is uniquely positioned for this
• Patients who want transparent published pricing before their first appointment
• Nervous and phobic dental patients who respond to warm, patient-centred care
• Patients seeking cosmetic work (veneers, composite bonding, Hollywood Smile) at competitive central London prices
• Marylebone, City fringe (Artillery Lane) and West/South-West London (Earls Court) residents who want a long-established, trusted practice near a major tube hub
• Patients requiring wisdom tooth extraction — this is an evidenced strength based on review volume and content
• Those who value continuity of care and long-term relationships with a practice rather than one-off treatments

⚠️ Less suitable for:

• NHS patients (private only across all branches)
• Patients specifically seeking the highest-tier Invisalign expertise (Diamond Apex accreditation is at Dentexcel, not Baker Street)
• Those requiring confirmed GDC Specialist Prosthodontist oversight for full-mouth rehabilitation
• Patients with known medication allergies who want explicit verbal confirmation that their allergy history has been reviewed before any prescribing — though this should be standard anywhere

How It Compares: London Private Dental Practices

Verdict: Baker Street Dental leads unequivocally on three dimensions: emergency care availability, review volume, and pricing transparency. Against Dentexcel on specialist Invisalign credentials and prosthodontic depth, it doesn’t compete at the same level. Against Bespoke Dental Clinics on IV sedation availability and emergency response for East and Central London patients, it holds its own — with the 24/7 service giving it a clear advantage. For cosmetic work at competitive published prices, Baker Street Dental is among the most accessible and well-reviewed options in W1.

CQC Registration & Regulatory Standing

The Baker Street Dental flagship clinic at 102 Baker Street is registered with the Care Quality Commission (location ID 1-220458224), listed under Dr Samir P. Boulis as the responsible registered person. The most recent published CQC inspection for this location was conducted in July 2013 and published later that month.

As explained in our wider dental review series: the CQC does not apply the Good/Requires Improvement/Outstanding rating framework to dental practices in England. CQC registration confirms that the practice has declared its regulated activities and met the statutory requirements to operate — it is a compliance threshold, not a quality endorsement. The July 2013 inspection is the most recent one available in the public domain; prospective patients should note that over twelve years have elapsed since the last published CQC inspection of this practice. Individual clinicians’ GDC registration can be verified independently.

Frequently Asked Questions About Baker Street Dental London

Is Baker Street Dental London open 24 hours for dental emergencies?

Yes — the Baker Street flagship clinic at 102 Baker Street, W1U 6FY operates a genuine 24-hour, 7-day emergency dental service. This is confirmed by multiple patient reviews describing appointments at late evening and overnight hours, including Christmas Day and Bank Holidays. Emergency appointments are also bookable via the linked platform 24hour-emergencydentist.co.uk. The Spitalfields branch (Artillery Lane E1) operates 9am–5pm, seven days. For out-of-hours emergencies in London, the Baker Street clinic is one of the very few genuinely round-the-clock independent private options.

How much does Invisalign cost at Baker Street Dental in Marylebone?

Baker Street Dental publishes its Invisalign pricing openly: Invisalign Express starts from £2,000 (approximately 6 months for mild corrections), Invisalign Lite covers moderate cases, and Invisalign Comprehensive starts from £3,500 for full treatment of approximately 18 months. Payment plans are available. These prices are competitive for central London private dentistry, though Baker Street Dental does not hold the Diamond Apex Invisalign provider tier that Dentexcel Harley Street holds — for the highest-volume, most complex Invisalign cases, a Diamond Apex provider offers additional case experience.

How much do veneers cost at Baker Street Dental London?

E-Max porcelain veneers at Baker Street Dental start from £600 per unit — a competitive entry price for a central London W1 private practice. Composite bonding starts from £350 per tooth. For multi-tooth smile makeovers, Baker Street Dental offers a “Trial Smile” service, allowing patients to preview the proposed veneer shape, size and shade in temporary composite before any irreversible preparation of the natural teeth takes place. Full pricing is available on the fees and finance page of bakerstreetdental.com.

Is Baker Street Dental good for nervous patients?

Yes — Baker Street Dental offers sedation therapy and has a team, particularly Dr Rena Millet, who is consistently and specifically praised by anxious patients across multiple review platforms. Patient reviews from individuals who describe dental phobia and years of avoidance record strongly positive experiences at Baker Street Dental. The practice’s approach to nervous patients — clear explanations, gentle technique, and a calm clinical atmosphere — appears throughout the review data. For those requiring IV sedation specifically, confirm availability when booking; Baker Street Dental lists sedation as a service but does not publish the same detail on its sedation provision as some specialist sedation practices.

Where is Baker Street Dental and how do I get there?

The flagship clinic is at 102 Baker Street, Marylebone, London W1U 6FY. Baker Street Station is directly outside, served by the Bakerloo, Circle, Hammersmith & City, Jubilee and Metropolitan lines — one of the best-connected tube stations in London for cross-zone access. Bond Street (Elizabeth, Central, Jubilee) is a ten-minute walk. The Spitalfields branch is at 9 Artillery Lane E1, two minutes from Liverpool Street Station. The Earls Court branch is at 221–225 Old Brompton Road SW5, near Earls Court Station (District and Piccadilly lines).

Is Baker Street Dental registered with the CQC?

Yes — the Baker Street flagship (102 Baker Street, W1U 6FY) is registered with the Care Quality Commission under location ID 1-220458224, with Dr Samir P. Boulis as the registered responsible person. The most recent published CQC inspection was conducted in July 2013. Note that dental practices in England are not assigned the Good/Outstanding ratings that apply to GP surgeries and care homes. Individual dentists’ GDC registration can be verified at olr.gdc-uk.org.

How long has Baker Street Dental been open and who runs it?

Baker Street Dental was founded in 1973 and has operated continuously on Baker Street for over fifty years, making it one of London’s oldest private cosmetic dental practices. The practice is owned and led by Dr Samir P. Boulis, who serves as both principal dentist and CQC-registered responsible person. The broader clinical team — which includes Dr Rena Millet and Dr Godwin Afeeva alongside specialist-grade practitioners in orthodontics, oral surgery, endodontics and implantology — collectively carries over 250 years of combined clinical experience.

What are the Baker Street Dental Spitalfields and Earls Court branch addresses?

The Spitalfields branch is at 9 Artillery Lane, London E1 7LP, approximately two minutes’ walk from Liverpool Street Station and convenient for City and East London patients. It operates seven days a week, 9am–5pm. The Earls Court branch is at 221–225 Old Brompton Road, London SW5 0EA, near Earls Court Station (District and Piccadilly lines), serving West London patients. For specific opening hours and treatment availability at the Earls Court branch, patients should confirm directly with the practice before travelling.

What do Baker Street Dental’s reviews actually say about treatment quality?

Baker Street Dental holds a 4.7-star rating from over 1,033 reviews on Birdeye — a review volume that gives statistical weight to the average. The dominant themes in positive reviews are: pain-free treatment delivery, warm and professional staff (particularly Dr Millet for anxious patients and Dr Godwin for complex work), excellent emergency response including overnight appointments, and highly praised wisdom tooth extractions. Negative themes — present but a minority — concern pricing that some patients found higher than expected, occasional waiting times, and one documented instance of a prescribing error involving a previously declared medication allergy.

London Reviews Verdict: Baker Street Dental Review

Baker Street Dental is, by several measurable standards, the most accessible and transparent private dental group in this review series. The 24/7 emergency service at Baker Street is not matched by any other independent practice we’ve assessed, and the patient evidence for it — reviews placed at midnight, on Christmas Day, from patients in acute pain who were seen and treated within the hour — is compelling and credible. The 1,033 Birdeye reviews at 4.7 stars represent the largest verified patient feedback base we’ve encountered in London private dentistry; it’s simply not possible to sustain that volume and average without delivering consistently good care across a large and varied patient population.

The published pricing is another genuine differentiator. Composite bonding from £350 per tooth and E-Max veneers from £600 per unit — stated openly on the website, available before any consultation — is the kind of transparency that builds patient trust before the first appointment. In a market where price opacity is the default, Baker Street Dental’s willingness to publish its fees is not only commercially sensible but ethically right. The fifty-year history adds depth that newer practices cannot manufacture; the 250-year combined team experience is real and consequential for complex treatment planning.

The concerns we’ve noted are specific and should not be dismissed. The documented allergy prescription error is a serious patient safety incident, regardless of its age or its ultimate non-consequence; patients with medication allergies should take the additional step of verbal confirmation with their treating dentist. The most recent CQC inspection predates the smartphone era, which is a regulatory gap worth acknowledging. And the minority-but-consistent thread of pricing dissatisfaction for routine appointments — the sense that some patients felt charged for more than they’d expected — warrants the same pre-appointment written cost confirmation we recommend for every private dental practice.

Overall, Baker Street Dental is highly recommended for emergency dental care, accessible cosmetic treatment at published prices, and patients who value continuity with a long-established team. For specialist Invisalign at the highest tier, or for complex full-mouth prosthodontic rehabilitation, Dentexcel’s specialist credentials edge ahead. For many Londoners, Baker Street Dental will be exactly what they need — and finding a practice that answers the phone at 2am, charges transparently, and has 1,033 reviews to its name is, as it turns out, genuinely rare.
