About Kendrick View Dental Practice
Kendrick View Dental Practice is a dental practice on London Road in Reading, England. A professional cleaning removes the plaque and hardened tartar that brushing and flossing cannot reach, particularly along the gumline, and is the core of routine preventive care. Most people benefit from a cleaning roughly every six months, more often for those managing gum disease.
Affordable care means the practice sets out to make treatment accessible on a self-pay basis or through a payment arrangement, rather than assuming every patient arrives with comprehensive insurance. It is worth asking directly what options exist before assuming a needed treatment is out of reach.
General dentistry covers the routine and restorative care most people need most often — examinations, cleanings, fillings, and preventive checks that catch problems while they are still small and inexpensive to treat. Regular attendance, roughly every six months for most patients, is what makes that early-catch approach actually work.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.

While all the team are friendly, this review is primarily about the amazing Dr Josephine. As someone with a great fear of dentists, the worst pain threshold of the oral area and doesn't like being told off, I can safely say she is the best dentist I have ever had the pleasure of. She minimises all pain, reduces anxiety massively and uses positive reinforcement instead of telling you off! In my experience, people tend to either be personable, friendly and kind, or, highly skilled and knowledgeable in their field. Josephine is the rare person who effortlessly combines both.
Kiran made the experience of a new patient consultation / check-up, as well as whitening consultation, super easy for me as a very nervous patient. Couldn’t have been a better experience!
Excellent service as always. From the moment you check it at a pleasant and friendly reception to a Clean and Comfortable waiting room. Add to that the painless treatment from a Highly skilled Dentist and Dental Nurse.
Amazing experience. Kiran is brilliant - have loved the outcomes from all dental treatments! She explains everything really well and made sure I was happy at all stages :) Highly recommend!
I’ve had a really positive experience at Kendrick View Dental Practice. I’ve had quite a range of treatments here, from routine check-ups and fillings to more involved treatments such as root canal treatment and cosmetic work, and overall I’ve been really impressed with the level of care. A special mention to Kiran, who has been absolutely fantastic. She’s incredibly understanding, caring and knowledgeable, and what I particularly appreciate is that she takes the time to properly explain things and educate me on how to look after my teeth and gums. I’ve always felt listened to and completely at ease in her care. The hygienist team have also been brilliant and have been really helpful and supportive throughout my treatment and ongoing dental care. Overall, I’ve genuinely enjoyed my experience here and feel like I’m in very safe hands. I’d definitely recommend Kiran and the team at Kendrick View Dental Practice to anyone looking for a dentist.
I couldn’t be happier with the treatment I received from Kiran Shankia. The results are absolutely fantastic and, most importantly to me, they look 100% natural. I always had reservations that it might make me look or feel different but its perfect and I feel I can smile more! Kiran has a wonderful manner, warm, pleasant and reassuring and takes the time to explain everything clearly in such an informed manner. Her attention to detail is exceptional, and it’s clear how much care and pride she takes in achieving the best possible result. I’m genuinely delighted with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kiran to anyone considering cosmetic dental treatment.
This is an exceptional dental surgery! I am an anxious patient and Dr Kiran Shankla was really considerate of this. She took the time to explain the current state of my teeth, any future work I might need but more importantly what steps I can do to avoid this. I felt she really cared about me and my teeth. I enjoyed great patient care from the reception team, nurses and Dr Kiran. Everything was thoroughly explained to me and my questions answered and I will certainly be making this my new dental surgery. All the staff are so friendly, kind and understanding. I very much appreciate the care and professionalism. The reception team are so lovely! I highly recommend this practice and Dr Kiran Shankla.
Absolutely first class treatment both in and out of the chair. Have been with this practice for over 30 years. Five star service every time. Thank you!
Always brings a smile to my face 😬
Excellent experience, professional, thorough, and the front crown looks and feels completely natural. Highly recommend Dr Koran Shankla & Kendrick View Dental Practice.
I saw Kiran for Invisalign and composite bonding. She was very professional and friendly, she goes above and beyond, if i had any concerns i would email her and would always hear back straight away, even on weekends and evenings. I am very happy with the results and my new smile
Professional, friendly, and scrupulously clean. I have always received top-notch care. The staff are consistently courteous and the appointments always run on time. Best dental practice in the area by far!"
