Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth using titanium posts that integrate with jawbone. We offer fixed crowns, bridges and denture stabilisation. Treatment takes 3-6 months with temporary restorations provided. Ideal for patients seeking permanent solutions that preserve adjacent teeth.
Endodontics
Specialist root canal treatment using microscopes for precision. Addresses infected or inflamed tooth pulp through cleaning and sealing. Performed by our MSc-qualified endodontist. Preserves natural teeth and prevents extraction. Includes post-treatment restoration planning.
Clear Aligner
Custom clear aligners straighten teeth without traditional brackets. Treatment involves sequential trays worn 22 hours daily. Includes digital smile assessment and bespoke planning. Suitable for adults seeking discreet orthodontic solutions. Retainers required post-treatment.
Facial Aesthetics
Anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers enhance facial appearance. Administered by dentists with facial anatomy expertise. Treatments include lip augmentation, wrinkle reduction and skin hydration. Lasts 3-6 months with maintenance sessions recommended.
