Our services/treatments:

Examinations/x-rays/ preventive advice: This is when our old patients coming back for routine examinations or when the new ones are accepted to our lists. We inform/discuss with you of our findings.

Hygienist: Our hygienist’s main role is to professionally clean your teeth off stains, plaque and tartar. This is usually called scaling and polishing. However, perhaps her most important role is showing you the best way to keep the teeth free of plaque. She will also give advice on diet and preventing dental decay. She gets booked up very quick so try to get an appointment as soon as you can.

Teeth whitening: We can provide the Home kit tooth whitening. The benefit of this system compared to in the surgery whitening is that patient can touch up the results in the future by just getting a new whitening gel from us. Treatment consists of one consultation session, second visit when we take impression from your teeth to make custom made trays you will ware at home (Trays are made in dental laboratory) and a third visit when dentist fits the trays and gives you instruction how to use the whitening gel and trays and gives you the home kit .

Filling: We can carry out different type of fillings to prevent tooth decay or replace the old leaking broken fillings with new ones. A variety of material can be used for restoration. You dentist will discuss the options with you.

Crown: or as they are commonly knows as caps is an artificial restoration that fits over the remaining part of a prepared tooth or a build up or a post(pin), making it strong and giving it the shape of a natural tooth.

Veneers: A veneer is a thin layer of porcelain made to fit over the front surface of a tooth, like a false fingernail fits over a nail. Veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of your teeth. A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones) generally. A veneer can make a chipped tooth look intact again. The porcelain covers the whole of the front of the tooth with a thicker section replacing the broken part. Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.

Root fillings or root canal treatment is needed when the blood or nerve supply of the tooth (known as the pulp) is infected through decay or injury. Complicated cases might need to be referred to Specialist.

Dentures: Dentures are replacement for lost teeth. We provide two types of dentures. Acrylic and Metal(Cobolt-Crome) dentures.

Bridges: They replace missing teeth. The most common form consist of series of crowns which are bonded together and are fitted over existing teeth on either side of the missing tooth where the artificial crown would sit. They can be made of metal, porcelain bonded to metal or pure porcelain ( for aesthetic reasons).

Extraction is carried out usually when a tooth is unsaveable. Tooth is pulled out of the jaw bone due to number of factors. Gum disease, excessive decayed tooth or a badly fractured root , cysts, unsuccessful root fillings or overcrowding of teeth prior to getting braces fixed on the teeth can be the reasons behind the extraction.

Implant: A dental implant is a titanium metal rod which is placed into the jawbone. It is used to support one or more false teeth. In practice, both the false teeth and their supporting rod are known as ‘implants’. If you wish to proceed with this treatment we can refer you to a specialist.
