Our main emphasis has always been on prevention of dental disease and the maintenance of healthy teeth and gums.

By prioritising prevention, you can proactively preserve the vitality of your mouth and tackle potential issues before they escalate, and so we encourage regular detailed examinations and hygiene visits. Our dentists can offer a tailored maintenance programme based on the needs of each individual.

Routine Examination

Regular dental check-ups are essential in delivering preventive advice and early diagnosis of tooth decay, gum disease and any oral pathology before they become a problem. These involve not only looking at the teeth but also recording periodontal measurements and monitoring the soft tissues and the temporomandibular jaw joints. High quality radiographs (x-rays) are taken where appropriate to assist in our diagnosis and monitoring. Our intra-oral camera displays images of your teeth and gums on an overhead television monitor to further aid in diagnosis, explanation and education.

Composite Fillings

We prioritise the preservation of your natural teeth. When it comes to restoring teeth, we utilise composite (tooth-coloured) filling materials. Our wide range of materials, colours, and adhesives allows us to match them precisely to your unique requirements.

With meticulous attention to detail, our skilled team sculpts and shapes the filling material to not only provide functionality but also to replicate the look, feel, and behavior of a natural tooth.

Hygienist

Regular visits to a hygienist are essential for overall oral health. They skillfully eliminate hidden plaque and tartar, smoothing rough surfaces that harbor bacteria. This enhances the health of teeth and gums, reducing the risk of future issues. Proper oral hygiene is vital for preventing gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss. Hygienists also contribute to a brighter smile through procedures such as scaling and polishing.

What exactly is AIR-FLOW therapy?

AIR-FLOW therapy is a highly efficient treatment for stain removal and deep cleaning of the gums. It utilises a specialised wand that combines water, compressed air, and fine powder particles to thoroughly clean and polish your teeth. By employing air-water micro-burst technology, it effectively reaches difficult-to-access areas that conventional scaling alone cannot reach.

It's important to note that AIR-FLOW therapy differs from teeth whitening procedures. While teeth whitening involves chemically lightening the teeth by several shades, AIR-FLOW is a non-chemical treatment that instantly eliminates surface stains without altering the base color of your teeth. Consequently, your teeth will still appear cleaner and brighter after AIR-FLOW therapy, as it restores them to their natural whiteness. Moreover, AIR-FLOW therapy can even be used in conjunction with teeth whitening treatments to enhance the overall outcome.

Crowns/Onlays

On occasion, we have to completely rebuild teeth if they have been badly damaged, or we may need to replace unsightly chipped old crowns. The recent developments in ceramic technology allow us to place amazingly natural crowns looking without the black line at the gum margin found in the older porcelain-bonded to metal crowns. Only you and your dentist will know they are there!
