We provide wide range of modern dental care, including restorative dentistry, dental implants, teeth whitening, adult orthodontics, preventative care.

 Dental Examination

A dental examination is part of an oral examination: the close inspection of the teeth and tissues of the mouth using physical assessment, radiographs, and other diagnostic aids. The examination identifies tooth decay and evaluates the health of the gums and other oral tissues. 

Regular dental check-up is the best way to keep your teeth and mouth healthy and prevent most of dental problems.

Fillings

A filling is a simple way to restore a tooth damaged by decay back to its normal function and shape, and helps prevent further decay. 

Your dentist will offer you the type of filling they consider clinically necessary. 

Fillings  can be made of:

  • amalgam (silver-coloured) – a mixture of metals, including mercury, silver, tin and copper
  • composite (tooth-coloured) – made of resin and glass mixture
  • glass ionomer (tooth-coloured) – powdered glass, which forms a chemical bond with your tooth and may release fluoride that helps to prevent further decay

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment (endodontics) is a dental procedure used to treatinflamation or infection at the centre of a tooth ( pulp).

There are three stages of root canal treatment:

  1. Cleaning and shaping root canal
  2. Filling root canal
  3. Restoring coronal part of the tooth with filling or crown

Root canal treatment is not painful and can save a tooth that might otherwise have to be removed completely.

 

Crowns

A crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth covering the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and/or to improve its appearance. Crowns are recommended after root canal treatment.

Crowns  can be:

  • all metal (such as gold or another alloy)
  • porcelain fused to metal
  • all resin
  • all ceramic/ Zirconia

Your dentist will offer you the type of crown they consider clinically necessary.

Bridges

A bridge is a fixed replacement for a missing tooth or teeth. Bridges are commonly used to replace one or more missing teeth. They span the space where the teeth are missing. Bridges are cemented to the natural teeth or implants surrounding the empty space. 

 A bridge can be made of:

  • porcelain bonded to metal alloys
  • metal alloys containing
  • acrylic (plastic) for temporary bridges
  • porcelain/Zirconia

You should ask your dentist what is most suitable for you.


 

Dental Implants 

Dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. Your dentist places them directly into your jaw bone, where they provide an artificial replacement for the root of your missing tooth or teeth. They can support crowns or dentures, in a similar way that roots support natural teeth.

Using implants to fill a gap means we don’t have to involve other teeth, as you would with a bridge, and an implant restoration feels and looks very natural.

Teeth Whitening 

Teeth Whitening is very popular procedure and can make an improvement to your smile. It can't make your teeth brilliant white, but it can lighten the existing colour by several shades.

It doesn't damage your teeth and can be repeated several times. It safely removes deep stains from the teeth caused by food, coffee, wine and tobacco.

It involves the use of a gel which releases hydrogen peroxide which penetrates into the tooth and bleaches out the staining. 

It will not work on crowns or fillings. Our teeth whitening treatments are safe and effective.
