After desperately needing some Dental work I researched Dentists in Cumbria and came across Lismore. I was made to feel very welcome and well looked after by everyone, for someone nervous of Dentists I felt safe and confident in with them. They gave me hope and I would wholeheartedly reccomend.

I arrived at the practice and was swiftly taken to the surgery/room, a choice of treatment was offered and the work commenced. It took a long time as the issue was worse than first anticipated but a thorough job was done and all pain free.

Not your usual review. The wonderful staff were sheltering families during a very heavy downpour during the summer holidays. Getting them inside to dry off. It takes a village as the saying goes, and it was wonderful to see a local business/service go above and beyond. A small act of kindness that made a huge difference.

I only ever write reviews when I have been truly impressed. Today I was. I needed an urgent extraction and got a quick booking with Matt Gribbon. He was extremely patient with an old guy with mobility issues. He was detailed in describing the procedure and the possible alternatives if the tooth proved difficult to extract. Fortunately the extraction went well and the tooth was successfully removed from my lower right gum. The performance of Matt and his nurse assistant - Julie I think - was without a doubt 5-star. I can recommend Lismore House DP without reservation

As someone who gets very anxious about the dentist, I always leave thinking "what was i worried about?".Mark and the team are first class and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Anna Chambers

I thought I would have to go further afield than Cumbria to get the cosmetic treatment I wanted. It turns out I didn’t have to. I found Mark at Lismore house dental practice and it was THE best decision! Everything about my experience was positive from the first visit. I can’t thank Mark and his team enough for their care and professionalism and for the amazing results. Would 100% recommend!

Sue George

I am extremely fussy about dentists and have had a fear since a young age. I have explained that to any dentist I have attended and also been upfront that if I wasn't happy I wouldn't be back. No need to worry here Mark Fortune is no less than brilliant and I have complete faith and comfort attending. Thank you Mark and the rest of the staff who are always very friendly and welcoming. Completely at ease.

Margaret Crook

Making sure your dentist visit is as good as can be is the aim of everybody here. As soon as you walk in the door you are made welcome. During a long appointment I was offered a choice of ‘comforts’ to make the experience more relaxing in fact I think I did doze at one point, how often can you say that about a dentist appointment.Lovely place, Rebecca is a very very good dentist. Very happy to recommend.

Lynne BROOKS

08:58 10 Dec 25

I saw Matt as I had a tooth abscess, he was very kind and efficient, drained the abscess and extracted the tooth. Thank you.

Emma Sanderson

I needed quite a lot of work done and when I say I’m extremely nervous of the dentist, it’s an understatement. I was petrified!!!But seriously not anymore…When Lismore House guarantees zero pain, they’re 100% spot on.Mark put me straight at ease and talked me through everything.I wouldn’t say I particularly enjoy having fillings done, but the fear and dread has gone.Reception staff are lovely, everyone very kind.

I had my first appointment with the hygienist yesterday and honestly that appointment was the best experience I have had at a dentist so far. He was friendly and patient and knowledgeable. The nurse was also very patient and very kind during the appointment . I'm a very nervous patient and I have absolutely no nerves at all about going to my next appointment . If I could give more stars I would

I had severe toothache on Friday afternoon. I phoned Lismore and got an appointment for the following Tuesday. My (nearly ex) dentist was shut until Wednesday. Long story short, went for my appointment with Matt, tooth extracted in no time. Absolutely phenomenal service from start to finish. Girls on reception are lovely, friendly and very helpful. We will be signing on with Lismore on 6th November. Highly recommended!

I sheared a tooth in the front of my mouth in half eating nuts. So phoned Lusmore for an emergency appointment.They fitted me in lunchtime with Matt. I thought that I was going to lose the tooth, but he repaired it so that it looks better than the original. I told him it was a masterpiece, and I truly think it is! Thankyou again!John

From the moment that I walked into Lismore House I felt comfortable with the surroundings, the women on the reception made me feel so relaxed, they are exceptional. My treatment was expertly performed by Jackie who made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout, she is phenomenal. Everything was fully explained in great detail and was easy to understand. Jackie is really friendly and a real asset. I recommend Lismore House Dental Practice and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

No pain dental treatment. I had deep pocket gum cleaning yesterday on the right hand side of my mouth. The appointment was on time, staff were all kind and friendly. I'd never had any dental work before with numbing injections and I didn't know what to expect but it was fine. I'd been shown how to clean my gums by Jackie a month earlier and have put in the effort. Today my mouth feels great. I'm washing my mouth with salt water and keeping my gums clean. Wish I'd had this quality of service when I was a child .I didn't know how to clean in between my teeth with tepe brushes until I joined Lismore .

John Horne

Mark has been my dentist since starting the practice at Lismore House. His byword is “Pain free dental treatment” and that is exactly what he delivers. I would highly recommend him and his staff…top class service.

Deb Brown

14:32 06 Jun 25

Can't recommend Matt and all the staff highly enough, I unfortunately needed 4 extractions and it was as pain-free as possible, despite my teeth being difficult with twisted roots. Matt explained everything at each stage and I was kept pain-free and as relaxed as possible. The reception staff were lovely, I'm a wheelchair user and they ensured I had a ground floor room and will put out a ramp for my next visit. I'm going back in a couple of weeks to discuss future options and I have no worries at all. Thanks all for an excellent service.

Karen Johnstone

12:22 05 Jun 25

Such a supportive and super friendly team. Exceptional work for Dr Mat, fell and snapped my front incisor, not only is it fixed and pain free, but also looks better than my original tooth, couldn’t be happier!😊

Lynn Ward

22:04 04 Jun 25

As usual Mark was a star, as he managed to reinsert one of my crowns. I've had some of my crowns since I was a teenager and I cant chew without them. He is the best dentist I have ever had.

Thanks to Lismore House Dental for my pain free dental treatment again today. Check up with Mark and hygiene appointment with Jackie. As ever all very easy and pain free, and lovely clean teeth after my hygiene session.Overall great service from all in the team 👍

Paul Taylor

20:02 15 May 25

A lovely dental practice at every stage- reminders, notifications are helpful, receptionists are welcoming, the atmosphere is serene, the treatment, if required, is undertaken skilfully and painlessly- and if it ain’t broke they intervene to a minimum. For the first time in my life I actually feel like I’m actually being helped to make my mouth healthier rather than just getting it fixed when it falls apart!

Helen Hill

17:51 15 May 25

Had an 'emergency' appointment with Lismore House Dental Practice for a broken tooth. As always Mark and staff were completely efficient and caring I had my tooth repaired painlessly and was given consideration all the time. I have been with the Practice many many years and although there are new dentists and new staff I really don't see how anyone could have any better care.

Andrew Laird

14:08 15 May 25

My first time at Lismore House Dental and I was greeted warmly by the receptionists. My appointment was with Sarah who was very friendly and helpful which eased my anxiety right from the start. Very impressed with what I've seen so far.

Tim Wright

17:22 11 May 25

Very pleased that Matt was able to see me for an emergency appointment. He helped resolved the pain I was experiencing and set up a further appointment to resolve this issue. Thanks Matt!

Robert Reed

Andy Graham

I have recently moved practices to Lismore House and I have found there services to be of a very high standard and I think their customer service has been excellent. I had a consultation with Sarah about getting some dental work done and she sent me to Matt and I’ve found his work to have been pain free and excellent. I would recommend this practise to anyone.
