Services

Preventative Treatment

Your dental health is our highest priority. We strongly believe that prevention is better than cure.

Regular checkups and hygiene appointments aim to reduce the amount of dental treatment you need by allowing us to work with you to maintain a healthy mouth and catch any problems before they become more serious.

As well as oral hygiene advice, diet advice and oral cancer screening, we offer a range of preventative treatments such as fissure sealants. We also offer a range of sports guards in an array of colours to help prevent dental injury on the sports field.

Please ask any member of our team or contact us for more information.

NHS Treatments

We have a contract to provide a fixed amount of NHS dental care each year. We provide treatment to fee paying adults, charge exempt adults and children.

The NHS provides treatment necessary to secure oral health. There are some treatments mainly hygiene appointments and cosmetic treatments which are not available under the NHS and you may choose to have these privately. You may also choose to have some treatments provided as an alternative to NHS treatment.

We are happy to discuss these options with you.

At present we do not currently have space for new NHS patients for general dentistry.

Appointments

We always try and see our patients at the appointed time as we know that everyone hates to be kept waiting.

Missing appointments wastes time and resources which are needed for other patients especially in these current times. 

For our NHS patients, our policy is that if, on more than one occasion, patients cancel with less than 2 working days notice  or do not attend an appointment, then we will no longer be able to offer NHS treatment.

For our private patients, our policy is that if, patients cancel with less than 2 working days notice or do not attend an appointment, it is with regret that a charge will be levied to cover the time set aside for the appointment.

Invisalign

Invisalign is the brand name of a type of thin clear aligner used in orthodontic treatment. The aligner is made from a flexible thermoplastic material named SmartTrack.

As the name suggests, this product is designed to make orthodontic treatment "less conspicuous" and although Invisalign aligners may not be completely invisible, these clear coverings fit tightly over your teeth and are much less noticeable than the brackets and wires of traditional braces.

Dental Implants

A dental implant is titanium screw that is placed into your jawbone, replacing a missing tooth root. After this has been fitted, your bone will fuse to the implant and create a sturdy, solid connection and foundation for a false tooth to be fitted on top of the implant. They are designed to match the colour and shape of the adjacent teeth.
