As a general dental practice, we offer the full range of services you require to maintain oral health.
More detailed information is available in the information sheets.
First visit -
we will conduct a thorough oral examination and may need to take X-rays.
We will inquire as to your medical history and discuss any particular problems or pain you may be experiencing.
Preventative dentistry -
we will endeavour to prevent problems arising wherever possible. Oral health care advice will be given specific to your circumstances.
To ensure you and your teeth receive the best care you should visit your dentist every six months.
Fillings -
where tooth decay is apparent, either through visual inspection or via an X-ray then a filling may be appropriate.
Prior to filling the tooth decay is removed. The filling is then placed to prevent further deterioration of the tooth and restore normal function.
White fillings can be administered to give a more aesthetic and natural look.
Crowns and Bridges -
a crown sits over a tooth that has been broken or weakened helping to restore the tooth to its proper strength and natural shape.
A bridge is used where one or more teeth is missing.
The bridge helps to maintain the position of surrounding teeth and restore appearance.
Endodontics -
If tooth decay has reached the tooth nerve this often causes pain and discomfort. Root canal treatment can save your tooth preventing the need for extraction and subsequent bridge.
Dentures -
can be fitted where natural teeth are no longer present. If you have dentures you should still have regular check-ups to ensure the gums are remaining healthy.
Cosmetic dentistry -
we can help to improve the brightness and appearance of your teeth using the latest techniques in tooth whitening. Other restorative procedures include veneers/crowns where tooth colour and shape can be modified to improve aesthetics.
