7 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

If you have missing teeth the spaces can be filled with bridges.

If you have old or stained fillings that are visible when you smile, we can make them almost invisible.

Do your gums bleed when brushing? Do you get a bad taste in your mouth or around some teeth? Do your gums look red and swollen? Modern periodontal treatment will ensure trouble-free healthy gums.

Do your teeth keep breaking? We can strengthen them with crowns.

Do you have a denture, which looks or feels false? We can, in the majority of cases, produce natural looking cosmetic dentures.

Large old silver fillings often become unsightly. We can replace them with tooth-coloured restorations.

If you worry about mouth cancer, we can reassure you with a thorough examination.

On behalf of everyone in the dental team we would like to extend a warm welcome to you. Our caring and efficient dental team, surgery and receptionist staff are here to give their help, advice and assistance.

Our aim is to provide you with high quality, gentle, thorough dental care and to make your visit as pleasant as possible. We aim to treat everyone as individuals - not just patients and we welcome your questions and comments.

This web site covers areas that we think will be most useful to you - but if you need any additional information please call our reception and we will be happy to assist you.
