Services
Dental Emergency Service
Our 24/7 dental emergency service provides urgent treatment for toothaches, abscesses, fractures, and dental trauma. With over 30 years' experience since 1990, we handle complex cases referred from London hospitals. Our team performs pulp extirpations, temporary restorations, and immediate trauma management. We accept NHS emergency patients through 111 triage and offer private emergency appointments. Treatment includes pain management, infection control, and follow-up care for dental emergencies.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Specialist cosmetic dentistry services include veneers, crowns, and smile makeovers. Our BDA-accredited team uses porcelain veneers and composite bonding to correct gaps, stains, and misshapen teeth. We offer Hollywood Smile treatments combining multiple cosmetic procedures. The practice features Zoom laser whitening technology and home whitening systems. All treatments follow strict aesthetic principles for natural-looking restorations that enhance facial harmony and patient confidence.
Dental Implants
Comprehensive dental implant services replace missing teeth with permanent solutions. Our visiting implantologists perform titanium post placements and bone augmentation procedures. We offer single implants, multiple tooth replacements, and implant-supported dentures. The service includes CT scanning, treatment planning, and restoration fitting. Patients benefit from preserved bone structure and improved chewing function without adhesives, with over 15 years' experience in implant dentistry.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly using custom-made removable trays. Our specialists treat overcrowding, gaps, and bite issues with treatment plans lasting 6-18 months. The process uses 3D imaging for precise tooth movement tracking. Patients receive new aligners every two weeks with regular progress checks. The service includes post-treatment retainers and flexible finance options for adults and teenagers seeking aesthetic orthodontic solutions.
Oral Surgery
Oral surgery services cover complex extractions, wisdom tooth removal, and pre-prosthetic procedures. Our specialists handle impacted teeth, retained roots, and surgical extractions under local anaesthesia. The practice manages post-operative care including dry socket treatment and infection control. We use digital radiography for surgical planning and follow strict aseptic techniques. Emergency oral surgery is available through our 24/7 service for trauma cases.
