Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
We offer white fillings and modern cosmetic treatments to improve your appearance. Our technology helps patients achieve confident smiles through safe, effective procedures. Treatments focus on enhancing tooth appearance while maintaining functionality and natural aesthetics.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening addresses stains from food, drinks, and smoking. Using safe dental bleaching agents, we lighten tooth colour while considering individual dental history. Results vary based on initial tooth condition and staining causes.
Children's Dentistry
We encourage early dental visits to prevent tooth decay. Our approach includes fissure sealants and preventative treatments for children. The team creates positive experiences to establish lifelong oral health habits in a child-friendly environment.
Emergency Treatment
Private patients receive weekend emergency care with prior arrangements. A 85 fee applies for out-of-hours surgery access plus treatment costs. NHS patients should contact NHSDirect for emergency dental assistance during evenings and holidays.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses transparent plastic retainers for teeth straightening. This discreet orthodontic solution gently repositions teeth without traditional braces. Treatment plans are customised using advanced digital imaging technology for optimal alignment results.
