Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth through titanium screw fittings integrated into the jawbone. Our experienced team, including implant specialist David Vivian, offers full arch rehabilitation and immediate function options. Patients benefit from improved eating, speaking, and cosmetic outcomes compared to traditional dentures, with treatment spanning several months for optimal results.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening addresses extrinsic and intrinsic stains using custom-fitted tray systems with dentist-prescribed bleaching gels. We provide home treatment kits alongside sensitivity management advice, ensuring safer and more effective results than over-the-counter products. Treatment excludes NHS coverage and requires patient commitment to maintenance routines for lasting effects.
Hygienist Services
Our hygienists specialise in preventive dental health, offering scale and polish treatments, gum disease management, and personalised oral hygiene instruction. They address plaque removal, dietary advice, and smoking cessation support while providing fluoride applications and antibacterial treatments for patients with decay or periodontal concerns.
Dental Check-Up
Comprehensive dental examinations include teeth, gum, and jaw evaluations alongside oral cancer screenings and bite analysis. Patients receive tailored advice on home care routines, dietary habits, and risk-based recall intervals. X-rays and treatment plans ensure early detection and prevention of potential dental issues.
Crowns & Bridges
We provide custom-made crowns and bridges to restore damaged teeth or replace missing ones, using high-quality materials for durability and aesthetics. These treatments improve both function and appearance while maintaining proper dental alignment and bite stability under NHS or private arrangements.
