Routine & preventive care
Examinations, hygiene and tailored prevention to keep things healthy and avoid bigger work later.
I'm Dr Alexandra Lengyel. I look after adults and families who want unhurried appointments, honest advice, and treatment planned around their goals — not a script. Every visit starts with listening.
[Short bio here] — a couple of warm, factual sentences about who you are and how you came to dentistry. Keep it human and specific. Avoid superlatives and any claim you cannot evidence to the GDC.
You might mention your approach to nervous patients, the kinds of care you most enjoy providing, and what a first appointment looks like. Replace this paragraph with your own words before launch.
A simple, predictable path — so you always know what's happening and why.
We start with your history, concerns and goals. No assumptions, no pressure — just a clear picture of where you are.
I talk through what I find in plain language, with the realistic choices, trade-offs and costs set out before anything begins.
We agree a plan together and move at a pace that suits you, reviewing as we go and adjusting when life changes.
A general scope with particular interest in the areas below. [Confirm / edit these to match your actual practice].
Examinations, hygiene and tailored prevention to keep things healthy and avoid bigger work later.
Carefully matched fillings, crowns and repairs that restore function and look natural.
Extra time, gentle pacing and clear signposting for anyone who finds the dentist daunting.
[Edit to reflect what you offer] — conservative, evidence-led choices discussed openly, with no overselling.
A calm, friendly setting for children and parents alike, building good habits early.
Sensible recall intervals and follow-up so small issues are caught while they're still small.
Send a few details and the practice will be in touch to arrange a time. For urgent dental pain, please call rather than use the form.
In a dental emergency outside opening hours, contact NHS 111 or your local urgent dental service.
Pick a slot that suits you — your details are already filled in. You'll get a confirmation by email once it's booked.
[Confirm availability] — note whether you are accepting new private and/or NHS patients, and any current waiting time.
[State NHS / private mix and how fees work]. Be clear and specific so patients know what to expect before booking.
A full conversation about your history and goals, a careful examination, and a written plan with options and costs. Nothing is started until you're comfortable to proceed.
Yes. Many people feel this way. We book extra time, explain everything before it happens, and stop whenever you need to. You're always in control.
I welcome feedback. [Complaints procedure here] — set out who to contact, expected response times, and the external body patients can escalate to. See the compliance section below.
Information shown in line with UK General Dental Council (GDC) guidance on dental professionals' websites.
This website (dr.lengyel.uk) is operated by [operator legal name], an independent clinician-led dental intake service ("we", "us"). We are the data controller for the information you submit through this site. You can reach us at [privacy contact email][registered address][ICO registration number, if registered].
We provide an intake and routing service. When you use the enquiry form we collect a small amount of information and pass the relevant parts to the dental clinic where your chosen clinician works, so they can arrange booking, triage and direct care. We are not your treating provider and we do not hold your dental records — the treating clinic is a separate data controller responsible for your clinical care and records.
From the enquiry form: your name, phone number, email (if given), preferred contact method and time, the reason for your enquiry, how urgent it is, any symptoms or health/medication details you choose to share, your preferred clinician and location, and your consent choices. We also use Cloudflare Turnstile to check you are a person and not an automated system, which briefly processes technical data such as your IP address; we do not store it. Some of this information may be health information, a special category of personal data under UK data protection law.
We use your information only to respond to your enquiry and to coordinate your care with the treating clinic.
You give this consent through the tick boxes on the form, and you can withdraw it at any time (see "Your rights") without affecting anything already done. [Lawful basis and special-category condition to be confirmed by a data protection adviser before launch.]
The optional "keep me updated" box is entirely separate from your care. It is off by default and never required. We only send updates if you opt in, and you can opt out at any time. We never share your information for marketing.
We do not sell your information.
Our providers operate global infrastructure, so some processing may take place outside the UK. Where it does, it is protected by appropriate safeguards (such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or equivalent). [Confirm transfer mechanisms with your adviser.]
We keep only a minimal record of your enquiry — your contact details, the reason and urgency, your chosen clinician, your consent choices and a reference — for [retention period — proposed: 12 months], after which it is deleted. We do not retain the full clinical detail you share; that goes only to the treating clinic, which keeps its own records under its own policy.
You have the right to access your information, correct it, ask us to delete it, restrict or object to its use, request a copy, and withdraw consent. To exercise any of these, contact [privacy contact email / address]. We will respond within one month.
Please raise any concern with us first at [privacy contact]. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO): ico.org.uk · helpline 0303 123 1113. For concerns about clinical care, see the complaints information in the Professional information section above.
We may update this notice; the version and date are shown at the top.
