The dental practice you'll actually look forward to visiting

General dentistry shouldn't feel like a clinical conveyor belt. It shouldn't feel rushed. And it definitely shouldn't feel like guesswork. We've built our practice around the idea that everyday dentistry deserves the same care, attention and modern technology as the more complex work we do - because the small things, done consistently well, are what protect your smile for the long term.

The technology that quietly makes a difference

Most patients never see our equipment in detail. They just notice that appointments feel faster, scans don't involve goop, and diagnoses come with clear visuals on a screen. Behind that ease is a significant investment in modern dental technology.

Anmol made me feel really comfortable and explained the process fully in every detail. She exceeded my expectations and I'm really happy with how the results turned out. At first I had doubts but at the end it was worth it. I recommend Natural Smiles Leicester to anyone.

Dr Raja and his team are fantastic. I had Invisalign just a few months before I got married and I love the result. I can now smile with confidence. I cannot thank Dr Raja enough for ensuring that the whole process was smooth and I had the desired result before my big day. I would 100% recommend Natural Smiles to everyone.

Sherelle M.

Very nice, went to get my gap closed with composite bonding, process was super quick and the staff are very nice. I often get nervous going to the dentist because many dentists can be hostile or even rude, but all the staff at natural smiles are amazing. A big thank you to Anmol Bal for making my composite look so natural.

Eileen J.

I contacted Natural Smiles after decades of being afraid to smile because of the condition of my teeth and gums plus my fear from previous bad experiences with other dentists and of being judged. I needn't have worried. I decided to have full dental implants, both upper and lower. It really has been a life-changing decision. Dr Bhav and all of the team have been superb from beginning to end. I am so glad I plucked up the courage to contact Natural Smiles.

Thank you to Dr Anmol Bal for my Invisalign treatment. Being a person who feels so uncomfortable to smile she's made me feel confident again. As I approach the end of my Invisalign treatment, I am really happy with how the results are turning out. Thank you once again to Anmol and Natural Smiles for their fantastic service! Definitely recommend this practice to all!

I can't personally recommend this dental practice enough. I wish I had joined many years ago, the service is second to none! Anubha is always so professional, very reassuring and understanding when it comes to my care and treatment. The reception staff are also really friendly and helpful too when it comes to sorting out appointments etc.

Frequently asked questions

Are you currently taking on new patients?

Yes - we welcome new patients to Natural Smiles. Your first visit will be a new patient examination, which gives us time to properly understand your dental history, goals and any concerns you'd like to discuss.

How often should I come in for a check-up?

Every six months works well for most patients. Some patients - particularly those with a history of gum disease, who smoke, or wear orthodontic appliances - may benefit from seeing us more often. We'll always recommend a frequency that suits your specific needs.

Do you only do general dentistry?

No - we're a full-service private practice offering general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics and dental implants - all under one roof. Many patients start with general care and explore other treatments as part of an ongoing relationship.

Do you treat nervous patients?

Absolutely. Many of our patients have come to us after years of avoidance. Our calm environment, unhurried appointment times and treatment coordinator approach make a real difference. For more involved treatments, IV sedation is available.

Do you offer a payment plan for treatment?

Yes - finance is available through V12 for treatment over £1,000, with 0% interest over 12 months and no deposit required. Longer-term plans up to five years at 9.9% APR are also available.

Can I bring my children to Natural Smiles?

We treat older children and teenagers as part of family appointments, particularly those who may benefit from orthodontic assessments. For very young children, we'd typically recommend a dedicated paediatric dentist.
