Treatments

Cleaning and gum care

Scaling and polishing remove the hard deposits (tartar) and plaque that brushing can't. It is the main treatment for bleeding gums and helps stop gum disease from getting worse.

Tooth-coloured fillings

A filling repairs a tooth damaged by decay or a small fracture. Tooth-coloured (composite) material is matched to your tooth shade, so the repair is hard to notice.

Children's dentistry

Healthy baby teeth help children chew, speak clearly and keep space for adult teeth. Early check-ups catch decay while it is small and help children feel at ease at the dentist.

Root canal treatment

When decay or injury reaches the nerve inside a tooth, root canal treatment cleans out the infected pulp, disinfects the canals and seals them. It saves your own tooth instead of removing it.

Wisdom tooth removal

Wisdom teeth come in last, at the very back. When there isn't room they get stuck (impacted), which can cause pain, infection, damage to the next tooth or cysts in the jaw. Removing them prevents these problems.

Dental implants

An implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone where a tooth is missing. Once it bonds with the bone, a crown is fixed on top. It looks and works like a natural tooth and doesn't need the neighbouring teeth to be cut.

Dental bridges

A bridge replaces a missing tooth by fixing a false tooth to crowns on the teeth either side. It is cemented in place, so it doesn't come out like a denture.

Braces

Braces move teeth slowly into a better position using brackets and wires. Straighter teeth are easier to clean and can improve your bite as well as your smile.

Veneers

Veneers are thin shells of porcelain or composite bonded to the front of teeth. They change the colour, shape or length of teeth that whitening or fillings can't fix.

Teeth whitening

Professional whitening lightens the natural colour of teeth safely under the dentist's supervision. Fillings, crowns and veneers don't change colour, so they are checked first.

Gum contouring

Gum contouring (gum lift) reshapes the gum line so teeth look evenly sized. It can also be part of treatment before crowns or veneers.

Teeth bonding

Bonding uses tooth-coloured composite to repair chips, close small gaps or reshape a tooth. It is usually done in one visit with little or no drilling.

Painless and sedation dentistry

If dental visits make you anxious, tell us. We use good numbing, go at your pace and explain each step. For some treatments, sedation options can help you relax; the dentist will discuss what is suitable for you.

Laser dentistry

Dental lasers can be used for some gum treatments and minor soft-tissue procedures. They often mean less bleeding and fewer stitches. The dentist will tell you if a laser suits your treatment.
