Dental Therapists

Hi, I’m Yalda — a newly qualified dental therapist and proud member of the Sale Dental Spa team. I started out as a nurse and now get to do what I love most: helping people smile with confidence through gentle, personalised care.

Dentistry’s fascinated me since I was young, and I still bring that same passion to every appointment — making sure patients feel relaxed, informed, and well looked after. Outside the clinic, I enjoy running dental health awareness camps in schools and travelling the globe with my amazing husband.

Looking forward to seeing you at Sale Dental!

Hey, I’m Nadia, and I’m proud to say I’m the longest-standing member of the therapist team at Sale Dental, having been here since 2019.

I graduated from the University of Leeds in 2017 and now have over seven years of experience delivering dental therapy to my patients. My favourite part of being a dental therapist is the opportunity to educate you on how to maintain excellent oral health. I’m also an experienced beauty therapist, so don’t hesitate to ask me about beauty treatments when you come in!

I truly embody the practice of ‘come as a client and stay as a friend,’ and many patients have done just that over the years. I ensure every single patient feels comfortable and can even enjoy a laugh or joke with me and my nurse during their visit.

I’m an avid fitness enthusiast, love spending time with my pet rabbit, and enjoy chilling with friends and family.

As a skilled smile makeover assistant, I’ve completed dozens of smile makeovers over the years. You can book a complimentary consultation using our online booking app or by giving us a call. I can’t wait to welcome you to the practice!

Hi, I’m Rebecca — dental therapist, netball lover, and part-time jetsetter! I started out as a nurse here at Sale Dental and worked my way up after graduating from Newcastle University. Now I spend my days helping patients keep their oral health in tip-top shape and showing them easy ways to avoid problems (and save some money while we’re at it!).

I’m all about making your visits relaxed and helpful, mixing gentle care with good chat and practical tips. Whether it’s showing you how to up your brushing game or giving you the lowdown on keeping your gums happy, I’ve got your back.

When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll probably catch me smashing goals on the netball court, squeezing in a gym session, or planning my next adventure with best friend & fellow dental SD therapist Nadia!

I look forward to hopefully seeing you at the practice for your next hygiene appointment!

Hi, I’m Damini, a dental therapist here at Sale Dental Spa. I graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2022 and I absolutely love to getting know my patients personally and educating them on their oral health needs.

I’m always learning and updating my skills, so I can offer the best treatments possible. I specialise in cosmetic bonding and whitening, which means I get to help people transform their smiles every day, and honestly, it never gets old.

Outside work, you’ll usually find me at the gym, spending time with my family, or planning my next trip somewhere new.

Whether you’re coming in for a hygiene appointment or thinking about a smile makeover, I can’t wait to meet you and help you feel brilliant about your smile.

I looked around at many others for price and reputation, this was the best. for full mouth dentistry. The whole team couldn’t be more friendly, competent and professional. The reception fronted by the unbelievable skills of Mandi who found slots that didn’t exist , right through to the dentist Hamza who worked miracles at times that were definitely testing and long even the odd weekend. Nothing was to much trouble. A perfectionist if ever there was one . Thankyou team all of you, not a bad one between you

I had a really nice, relaxed experience getting a filling today. Damini and Zahra were absolutely wonderful and professional, I didn’t even feel the needle go in!. The rest of the staff were great as well, even though I didn’t catch all their names. Thanks to everyone for making the visit so welcome and comfortable!

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Sale Dental Spa. I came in feeling really unhappy with my teeth, and after a personalised treatment plan that included Invisalign and composite bonding, the results have completely transformed my smile.A huge thank you to Mandi and Aisha for their incredible care throughout my treatment — they were genuinely invested in helping me achieve the best outcome. And thank you to Phoebe and Yalda for making the entire process smooth and stress-free.From start to finish, the service has been outstanding. Highly recommend!

I had an AirFlow cleaning with Rebecca and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She is very gentle, honest and professional, and took the time to explain what she was doing and what results I could realistically expect.The actual clean was excellent. my teeth felt super smooth and fresh afterwards, and she was also very friendly and lovely to talk to, which made me feel relaxed and comfortable the whole time.I also received a Black Friday discount for the AirFlow, which was a great bonus and very good value.I’m already planning to come back here for whitening.Thank you, Rebecca and Sale Dental Spa! highly recommended!

I recently had a large filling on an awkward wisdom tooth done by Rebecca and Zahra. I was very nervous going into it, however this was one of the calmest and gentlest procedures I have had. Rebecca was so gentle and reassuring throughout and went out of her way to make me more comfortable and explain everything she was doing. Massive thanks to both they are a super friendly and caring team. Xx

As someone who has always been extremely self-conscious about my teeth and the way I smiled, taking the step to improve my confidence felt daunting to say the least. Around February 2025, after much research and reading reviews, I decided to try Invisalign, and I’m so grateful that my journey led me to Sale Dental Spa. From the moment I walked through their doors, I knew I was in the best possible hands.What sets Sale Dental Spa apart is the incredible warmth and care of their team. They treated me like family from Day 1, making every appointment feel less like that ‘scary’ dental visit and more like catching up with friends who genuinely care so much about my well-being. This personal touch transformed my experience, turning a nervous patient into someone who now looks forward to their visits.I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the amazing individuals who made this journey so special: Hamza, Mandi, Georgia, Phoebe, Cristina, Zahra, Essa, Yalda, Aisha, and Haaris. Each of you brought your unique kindness, expertise, and encouragement, and I can’t thank you enough. If I’ve missed anyone from the Sale Dental Spa team, please know that your contributions haven’t gone unnoticed the collective effort of everyone there has been truly impactful.The professionalism and skill at Sale Dental Spa are unmatched. My Invisalign treatment progressed smoothly, and I’m already loving the transformation in my smile that I never thought possible. The team’s patience in explaining every step and their unwavering support have made all the difference. Whether you’re in the M33 area or beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Sale Dental Spa to anyone looking for top-notch dental care with a personal touch!Here’s to the remainder of 2025 and the beginning of 2026! Here’s to happy smiles, newfound confidence, and a progressive journey with the best dental team I could have asked for. Thank you, Sale Dental Spa, for changing my life one smile at a time!

I've had teeth whitening and composite bonding done on two teeth by Damini and I couldn't be happier with the results! She's not only an incredibly skilled dentist but also a genuinely kind and caring person. The entire experience was smooth and reassuring and her attention to detail is exceptional….Highly recommend!

Nadia and Zahra were both amazing!I had previous composite edge bonding from elsewhere which wasn’t to a high standard and had multiple chips. Nadia removed the previous composite and redid my top 6 teeth. The quality of her work is incredible, I was previously so self conscious of my smile but now I love my teeth!Both Nadia and Zahra were so lovely and reassuring throughout the whole appointment.I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough, thank you so much! 🫶🏼

From the moment I had my consultation with Mandi regarding teeth whitening. I was made to feel relaxed, Mandi explained the process and options available, showed her knowledge of the area, and I felt very confident about using the home kit. I had checkins throughout the process and the overall results were amazing!. Thanks Mandi!

I cannot recommend Sale Dental Spa enough. From day one. every single staff member has been friendly, polite and kind. It’s so nice to walk in somewhere and be greeted by your name, rather than a typical transactional experience.As someone who has been anxious about the dentist my whole life, I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr Hamza. He has consistently made me feel so relaxed, kept me informed on what was happening and made the experience enjoyable.I love my new teeth so much; I can’t stop smiling! I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Thank you 🌟

I recently visited Sale Dental Spa for a full checkup, including X-rays and a hygiene/cleaning with Damini, and the experience was excellent. The process was quick, smooth, and thorough. Damini and Zahra were both incredibly friendly and made me feel completely at ease. The clinic is welcoming and professional, and I left feeling well cared for.Credit to Dr. Aisha for curating this wonderful clinic - your efforts are appreciated.Highly recommend!

I had my first hygienist appointment with Damini today and she was so lovely and put me at ease straight away! I would highly reccomend, she talked me through the process and gave me advice on what I should do next to perfect my brushing routine at home! I have my next hygienist appointment already booked in, thank you Damini!

In May I decided to take action on my oral health and came here to have a consultation to see just what work I needed, knowing I’d need a fair amount so I scheduled an appointment online and was booked in with Hamza.From the beginning he’s been really helpful, kind and professional - knowing I was extremely nervous at the start he worked out a dental plan for me and talked me through it making sure I understood the issues and impact if I was to decide not to fix soon. I never felt pressured he always was clear about how I could schedule the treatment whenever I’m ready so always felt comfortable and armed with the information needed to make decisions on my treatment.It’s 7 months later and I’ve had 3 sessions of work with 2 more to go, I can honestly say that Hamza is passionate about his work and I can tell he’s a perfectionist. He won’t ever rush the work and will clearly state the steps he’s taking when you’re in the chair and can’t talk, i feel like I’ve learnt so much about my teeth - I’m never left wondering about any of it or what the next session will entail which I love. He stops if I make any signal that I’m in discomfort and is keen to make sure I’m ok throughout.I’ve always dreaded the dentist but now I really don’t, Hamza and his assistant Zara are always so pleasant, calming and caring and as weird as it sounds I’m always so relaxed in that dentist chair which are words I never thought I’d say!I do recommend this place, facilities are nice and clean.

Sabeer, Rachel and Mandi are the Root-Canal dream team! They made my lengthy and complicated re-root canal procedure, not only tolerable and manageable, but we really had some laughs along the way! I would highly recommend them not just for their excellent expertise, but for sensitive handling of a nervous patient. Thank you.

Sale Dental Spa and their staff consistently provide top-quality dental care. I have been coming to this dentist for 5+ years and you get the same level of attention to detail every single appointment.
