Booking an appointment is simple. You can contact our practice by phone, complete our online enquiry form, or request an appointment through our website. Whether you are a new or existing patient, our friendly team will be happy to help you arrange a convenient appointment time and answer any questions you may have before your visit
Do you provide same-day emergency appointments?
We understand that dental emergencies can be painful, stressful, and difficult to ignore. We aim to offer same-day emergency appointments whenever possible for patients experiencing tooth pain, swelling, dental injuries, broken teeth, or other urgent concerns. If you require urgent care, we recommend contacting our team as early as possible so we can arrange the earliest available appointment.
What should I do if I have tooth pain?
Tooth pain can be caused by a variety of dental issues, including tooth decay, infection, gum problems, or damage to a tooth. If you are experiencing persistent pain, sensitivity, swelling, or discomfort when eating or drinking, it is important to seek professional advice promptly. Early assessment can help identify the cause of the problem and prevent it from becoming more serious
How often should I have a dental check-up?
Regular dental check-ups play an important role in maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Most patients benefit from routine examinations, although the recommended frequency may vary depending on their oral health needs and risk factors. During your visit, your dentist will assess your oral health and advise when you should return for your next check-up.
What happens during a routine dental check-up?
A routine dental check-up allows your dentist to assess the health of your teeth, gums, and mouth. Your appointment may include an examination for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, oral health concerns, and existing dental work. Regular check-ups help identify potential issues early, making treatment simpler and helping maintain long-term oral health.
What happens during a hygiene appointment?
A hygiene appointment focuses on removing plaque, tartar, and surface stains that cannot always be removed through brushing and flossing alone. Your hygienist will also assess your gum health and provide personalised advice on maintaining good oral hygiene at home. Regular hygiene visits can help reduce the risk of gum disease and support overall oral health.
Is root canal treatment painful?
Many patients are surprised to learn that modern root canal treatment is typically no more uncomfortable than having a filling. Local anaesthetic is used to help ensure the procedure is as comfortable as possible while the infected tissue inside the tooth is treated. Root canal treatment is often recommended to relieve pain caused by infection and help preserve the natural tooth.
What are my options for replacing missing teeth?
Several treatment options are available for replacing missing teeth, including dental implants, dental bridges, and dentures. The most suitable option will depend on factors such as the number of missing teeth, your oral health, and your personal preferences. During your consultation, we can discuss the available solutions and recommend the option best suited to your needs.
Are dental implants permanent?
Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. The implant is placed into the jawbone, where it acts as an artificial tooth root and supports a custom-made restoration. With good oral hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and proper maintenance, dental implants can provide many years of reliable function and a natural-looking smile.
What are veneers used for?
Veneers are a cosmetic treatment designed to improve the appearance of teeth by enhancing their shape, size, colour, or overall symmetry. They can be used to address concerns such as discolouration, worn teeth, minor gaps, or uneven tooth appearance. Custom-made to suit your smile, veneers can help create a more balanced and confident appearance.
How long does teeth whitening last?
The results of professional teeth whitening can vary depending on factors such as diet, smoking habits, and oral hygiene. Many patients enjoy brighter teeth for several months or even years with proper maintenance. Following your dentist's aftercare advice and attending regular dental appointments can help you maintain your whitening results for longer.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The length of Invisalign treatment depends on the complexity of your case and your individual treatment goals. Some patients achieve their desired results within a few months, while more complex cases may require longer treatment. During your consultation, your dentist will assess your smile and provide a personalised treatment plan with an estimated treatment timeline.
What is the difference between clear aligners and traditional braces?
Clear aligners use a series of removable, transparent trays to gradually move teeth into position, while traditional braces use fixed brackets and wires attached to the teeth. Many patients prefer clear aligners because they are discreet, comfortable, and can be removed for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene. The most suitable option will depend on your orthodontic needs and treatment objectives.
Can I talk normally with aligners?
Most patients adapt to wearing aligners very quickly. You may notice a slight change in your speech during the first few days of treatment, but this usually improves as your mouth adjusts. Because aligners are custom-made to fit closely over your teeth, they are designed to be comfortable and minimally disruptive to everyday life.
Do I need to wear aligners all the time?
For the best results, aligners should typically be worn for around 20 to 22 hours each day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, and carrying out your normal brushing and flossing routine. Consistently wearing your aligners as instructed is important for achieving predictable and successful treatment outcomes.
How long will I need to wear retainers after treatment?
Retainers are an important part of maintaining the results achieved through orthodontic treatment. Teeth naturally have a tendency to move over time, so retainers help keep them in their new position. Your dentist will advise how often you should wear your retainers based on your individual treatment, but long-term retainer use is commonly recommended to help preserve your results.
