Services
EMS Airflow
EMS Airflow technology provides advanced dental cleaning using air, warm water, and fine powder to remove plaque and stains. This non-invasive method effectively cleans hard-to-reach areas without traditional scraping techniques. Patients benefit from reduced sensitivity during treatment while achieving brighter teeth and improved gum health through targeted biofilm removal.
White Fillings
White composite fillings offer aesthetic restoration using tooth-coloured materials that bond directly to damaged teeth. This minimally invasive treatment preserves more natural tooth structure while providing durable, long-lasting results. The material can be colour-matched to existing teeth for seamless integration and repaired if needed.
Dental Crowns
Custom dental crowns restore strength and appearance to damaged or weakened teeth. Each crown is precisely crafted to match surrounding teeth in shape, size, and colour. The process involves minimal tooth preparation followed by two-week laboratory fabrication for optimal fit and aesthetics.
Invisalign
Invisalign clear aligners straighten teeth discreetly using removable, custom-fitted trays. This orthodontic solution applies gentle pressure to gradually reposition teeth without traditional brackets. Treatment duration is typically shorter than conventional braces while maintaining comfort and aesthetic appeal.
Periodontal Treatment
Specialised periodontal treatments address gum disease and support structures using advanced techniques. The practice offers surgical and non-surgical options to manage gum recession, bone loss, and tissue inflammation. Regular maintenance programmes help prevent progression of periodontal conditions while preserving oral health.
