General & NHS Dentistry

General dental care for you and your family

In today’s world after patients have had any sort of cosmetic or surgical work we must maintain dental care. We will invite you to attend a six monthly examination and follow up for any treatment. We generally recommend seeing our hygienists on a 6 monthly basis to keep long term plaque deposits to a minimum.

“We abide by the guidelines set out by NICE (National Institute of Clinical Excellence)”

From routine health examinations to an oral cancer screening, our dental practice can facilitate all general dental care services you may require, including:

• tooth extractions
• white fillings
• any dental emergency
• root canal treatment
• gum disease and hygiene therapy

We also provide all dental implant related treatment and cosmetic dental treatments too.

Our philosophy of care outlined by 6 main views

1. We take up an preventative approach to dentistry. (Example is our 6 monthly fluoride therapy).
2. Early detection of oral, dental and facial disease and importantly oral cancer screening.
3. Education about diet & brushing optimally to promote dental fitness and wellbeing.
4. Hygiene to prevent gum disease and keep you smiling.
5. Support to stop harmful health habits such as smoking, alcohol and sugar.
6. Early intervention for children’s orthodontics (braces) from age seven upwards to help prevent extractions later for brace treatment.
