About Portland Street Dental Care
Portland Street Dental Care is a dental practice on Portland Street in Southampton, England. Traditional braces use brackets and wires to gradually move teeth into alignment, handling complex bite corrections and significant crowding more predictably than removable alternatives. Treatment commonly runs one to three years, with a retainer worn afterward to hold the result.
Sedation dentistry uses inhaled, oral, or intravenous options to help patients relax through treatment, ranging from nitrous oxide for mild anxiety through to deeper sedation for longer or more involved procedures. It is commonly used for patients who have avoided the dentist for years due to fear.
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.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Highly recommend! Exceptional care from start to finish. The entire team is professional, welcoming and genuinely cares about patient comfort. Pamela and Costin are definitely the dream team when it comes to dental care.
I’ve had an excellent experience with Costin and Pam at Portland Street Dentist. I decided to get braces just before turning 30, and it’s honestly one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My teeth are now so straight, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I was quite nervous at the start and told Costin that I really don’t like dentists or pain, but every single appointment was handled with such care and gentleness. They always made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the whole process. I would absolutely recommend Portland Street Dentist to anyone considering braces especially if you’re feeling a little anxious like I was! I have also had other dental treatment here, and has been great service every time.
I honestly can’t recommend this dentist highly enough! I had Spark orthodontic treatment and the results are absolutely fantastic. My face aches from smiling so much! 😁 Pam and Costin have been incredibly welcoming from the start and the level of care they provide is exceptional. They made every appointment comfortable, reassuring, and kept me informed throughout. I now wouldn’t want to go anywhere else! Thank you both again for such brilliant results!
Pamela and Costin made me feel welcome and relaxed throughout the process of my dental work. All of my options were explained with pros and cons, and they went the extra mile to ensure that I would leave happy with my new smile (which I really did!). Costin is a perfectionist!
I had my braces fitted at Portland Street Dental and I couldn't be happier with my smile! Pamela and Costin immediately make you feel comfortable and secure! I continue staying as a long term patient! 5 stars!
As a nervous patient, Pamela and Costin made me feel at ease from the very beginning. I had a root canal filling, two smaller fillings and a clean. I can honestly say that it's been the best dental experience I've ever had. I would recommend them to anyone.
