Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions through titanium post integration with jawbone. Our computer-guided placement ensures precision for single or multiple missing teeth. The process includes 3D imaging, surgical placement under local anaesthetic, and custom crown fabrication for natural aesthetics and function.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments use advanced bleaching techniques to remove stains and enhance smiles. We offer custom tray systems and in-practice treatments for safe, effective results. Our dentists assess suitability to ensure optimal outcomes while maintaining enamel integrity through regulated whitening concentrations.
Porcelain Veneers
Porcelain veneers transform dental aesthetics by covering imperfections with ultra-thin ceramic shells. Our process involves minimal enamel preparation followed by precise bonding. These durable restorations correct discoloration, chips, and alignment issues while maintaining natural translucency and bite functionality.
Emergency Care
Emergency dental services address acute pain, trauma, or infections through rapid intervention. Our team provides same-day assessments for conditions like cracked teeth, abscesses, or knocked-out teeth. Treatments range from temporary fillings to root canal therapy, prioritising pain relief and infection control.
Dentures
Custom dentures replace missing teeth with removable acrylic or metal-based prosthetics. We create precise impressions for optimal fit, offering conventional and implant-supported options. Our process includes bite analysis and tissue conditioning to ensure comfort, speech clarity, and chewing efficiency.

Many thanks to Giffnock Dental Care for their professionalism. I'd chipped 30% off one of my front teeth at the start of lockdown it was having a significant impact on both my self-esteem and speach. Dr Philip Larmour and his team were friendly, helpful and professional. After one short treatment the broken tooth is indistinguishable from its original state and feels completely normal. Many many thanks to the team especially during these very challenging COVID times.
