Dentist/ Hygienist

Why visit the dentist?

Three main areas where your dentist can help you are:

A) Routine Check-ups
B) General treatments
C) Cosmetic treatments

A) Routine check-ups are of colossal importance because early signs of decay or gum problem can be detected and dealt with before resulting in detorating conditions which would result in more excessive treatment greater cost etc. Updating your medical history and Visual inspection of the teeth/gums and x-rays if necessary are part of routine check ups.

B) If you require any treatment, options regarding your treatment will be discussed with you. If we carry out the treatment at the practice we will provide you with a printed estimate for the cost of the treatment. If any changes would happen during the course of the treatment you would be informed and would be given a new estimate. Fillings and extractions are examples of the general treatment.

C) Cosmetic treatments are to improve the shape and appearance of the teeth, gums. This can be achieved by means of tooth colour fillings, veneers, tooth whitening, reshaping of the teeth or replacing old crowns or bridges.
