Dental implants
Our dental implant services restore missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking solutions. We offer single implants, multiple implants, and all-on-four treatments using advanced technology for precise placement. Patients benefit from improved confidence, functionality, and long-term oral health through our specialist-led procedures.
Orthodontics
We provide comprehensive orthodontic treatments including traditional braces, clear aligners, and children's orthodontics. Our specialists address misalignment issues to improve bite function and aesthetic appearance. Treatments enhance facial symmetry and reduce risks of dental wear while prioritising patient comfort during correction.
Cosmetic dentistry
Our cosmetic services include veneers, composite bonding, and teeth whitening to transform smiles. We use minimally invasive techniques to correct discolouration, chips, and gaps while maintaining tooth structure. Treatments focus on achieving natural aesthetics and boosting patient self-esteem through tailored smile design.
General dentistry
We offer preventive and restorative general dentistry services including check-ups, fillings, and root canal treatments. Our hygienists provide professional cleaning and gum disease prevention through direct access appointments. Regular care helps maintain oral health and detect issues early for timely intervention.
Dental sedation
Specialist sedation services help anxious patients receive necessary dental care comfortably. Our anaesthetists use intravenous techniques to induce relaxation while maintaining consciousness during procedures. This service enables comprehensive treatment for patients with dental phobia or complex needs in a stress-free environment.

Report
I cannot thank Brickstables enough. I had tooth pain this week and I tried calling my own dentist in Colchester and couldn't even get through. I tried 3 other dentists who either didn't answer, weren't interested in helping or couldn't see me for months. I left a message with Christine at Brickstables on the emergency line and received a call back nearly straight away. I was helped by Shauna who was absolutely superb. She's an absolute delight to speak to. So knowledgeable, very informative and in my opinion goes above and beyond with the information she provides. I was treated by Francois and

Teeth are very personal and when there are problems you feel its the end if the world . We have been using Francois and his team for many years and from the minute the phone is answered to the minute you leave you genuinely feel cared for. The level of professionalism and skill from the whole team make going to the dentist a very different experience. My son has had 10 years of life changing orthodontic work and the transformation is truly breathtaking. First class and wont beaten. Setting the standard of what can be achieved.
