Leading Children's Dentist in Glasgow

My daughter had the best experience at Kids Dental Care. It was her very first appointment, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for it to go any better.

John was absolutely amazing with my 8-year-old. He was so kind, patient, and professional from start to finish. He made her feel completely at ease, explained everything in a gentle way, and turned what could have been a scary experience into such a positive one. I can’t even describe how lovely he was with her. She came out smiling and now calls him “the best dentist in the entire world!”

I also want to thank the other dentist who saw her she was incredibly kind and welcoming too. The whole team made us feel comfortable and cared for.

I truly can’t recommend Kids Dental Care enough, especially for parents whose children feel nervous about going to the dentist. They completely changed my daughter’s view, and we will definitely be using them for all of our children’s dental care from now on.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!

John was amazing with my 7 year old daughter who suffers with severe anxiety. He made her feel very calm and relaxed by providing her with positive reassurance and explaining everything to her prior to doing it. She had 2 teeth removed under light sedation plus a crown fitted and not a tear was shed at both appointments. I can’t thank him enough for his kind, caring and compassionate attitude towards my daughter. Thank you one again!

Took my my granddaughter to have her teeth examined before the extraction. John and the team couldn’t have been any more friendly with the wee one. The row of sunglasses was a hit with her and the fact that she could watch Netflix when she was being examined was a bonus for me. Very impressed with the whole team at Hannigans, so much so me and my family are switching dentists!

John was just amazing with my son. Took the time to understand any anxieties and explained everything clearly to put him at ease.

Highly recommend. After being on the NHS waiting list for months we decided to go private for my little boys teeth removal. First consultation with John was amazing, he is great with kids and spoke directly to our son and explained everything that was going to happen and made everything fun, everything went very smoothly during the actual procedure and was all very calm, and John even had him laughing. Best dentist we have ever been to.

Fabulous practice and dentists. Reassuring and my daughter loved her cool glasses! Thank you

Dexter had to get a tooth out and 3 caps, it was a very positive experience for him, he was totally chilled and that was thanks to John and the way he works :) i was thinking the whole time how glad i was that this would be Dexter’s first experience of treatment :) thank you!

My daughter had a tooth removed and a filling. Her dentist John was amazing. He kept her calm made her laugh and eased all her nerves. He explained and demonstrated everything he was going to do making sure she was comfortable before proceeding. John definitely has an amazing rapport with children. I would highly recommend

My daughter has autism and get nervous about the dentist. My local dentist referred us to John and he was amazing with her. After her first appointment she couldn't wait to get back he was patient and explained everything to her and she loved watching netflix while getting her teeth checked.. can't thank him enough she has less fear now about the dentist. Thank you John 😊

We took our extremely anxious 6 year old to see John for emergency care. From the very start he was brilliant with her, very gentle and reassuring, and he made her visit fun. She responded really well to him, despite a bad experience at another dentist that had left her very fearful. Would highly recommend John and we won't go anywhere else now!

Had a wonderful experience here with my son, what could have been a really traumatic experience for him turned out to be really positive. His dentist John was amazing with him, took time and care to fully explain what was going to happen and really put him at ease. I can’t recommend this place enough, thank you so much!

After several unsuccessful attempts to have my neurodiverse daughter’s teeth extracted through the usual NHS pathway, we were beginning to lose hope that the procedure could ever be done without causing her distress. From the moment we arrived at Hannigan, John completely changed that.
He took the time to explain every step clearly, calmly, and patiently—not just to me, but directly to my daughter in a way she could understand and feel comfortable with. His manner was incredibly reassuring: relaxed, unhurried, and genuinely compassionate. For the first time, she felt safe enough to engage, ask questions, and stay in control.
What stood out most was John’s ability to adapt to her needs without making her feel different or difficult. He created an environment where she could relax, and because of that, the extraction was completed smoothly—something we hadn’t thought possible after previous attempts elsewhere.
I’m deeply grateful for the care, professionalism, and understanding shown throughout the entire appointment. For any parent of a neurodiverse child who has struggled with dental treatment, I cannot recommend John and the team at Hannigan highly enough. They made what had felt like an impossible situation entirely manageable.
