Services
NHS Dentistry
We provide comprehensive NHS dental services including routine check-ups, fillings, extractions, and emergency care. Our practice accepts new NHS patients from Stewarton and surrounding areas. Regular examinations help detect dental issues early, ensuring timely and effective treatment while maintaining oral health.
Emergency Treatment
Acute dental emergencies are prioritised with appointments available within 24 hours on weekdays. We treat severe toothaches, infections, and dental trauma. Weekend emergencies are handled through NHS 24 by calling 111. Our team ensures prompt pain relief and stabilisation for urgent dental conditions.
Tooth Whitening
Professional tooth whitening treatments safely enhance smiles using custom-fitted trays and 15% urea peroxide solution. We assess suitability during consultations, as treatment won't affect existing restorations. The process typically lightens teeth by two shades over two weeks of nightly application, with results lasting several years.
Hygienist Services
Our dental hygienists perform thorough scaling above and below the gum line to remove plaque and tartar. They provide personalised brushing and flossing guidance to prevent gum disease. Regular hygiene visits complement dental check-ups, maintaining periodontal health and preventing tooth loss through professional cleaning and education.
Restorative Treatments
We offer fillings, crowns, bridges, and veneers to restore damaged or missing teeth. Amalgam and tooth-coloured composite fillings repair cavities, while crowns protect weakened teeth. Porcelain veneers improve aesthetics for discoloured or misaligned teeth. Bridges replace missing teeth using adjacent teeth for support.
