Tooth Coloured Fillings
Tooth Coloured Fillings provide a natural aesthetic alternative to traditional amalgam fillings. Using composite, glass ionomer, or compomer materials, we restore decayed teeth while maintaining your smile's appearance. These fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, offering durability and minimally invasive treatment for both front and back teeth.
Root Canal Treatment
Root Canal Treatment preserves damaged or infected teeth through precise removal of affected tissue. Our dentists use modern techniques to clean and seal root canals, followed by restoration with crowns where necessary. This procedure alleviates pain and prevents reinfection while maintaining natural tooth function.
Tooth Whitening
Tooth Whitening enhances smiles through professional-grade bleaching treatments. We offer customised solutions for stained or discoloured teeth, including home whitening kits supervised by our dentists. Results typically show significant improvement in tooth shade while maintaining enamel safety and sensitivity control.
Hygienist Services
Our hygienist programme focuses on preventing gum disease and tooth decay through professional cleaning and education. Services include plaque removal, polishing, fluoride application, and tailored oral hygiene advice. Regular visits help maintain optimal oral health between dental check-ups.
Crowns
Crowns restore damaged teeth to their original shape and strength using custom-made ceramic or porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. We fit crowns following root canal treatment or to repair fractured teeth, ensuring natural aesthetics and functional longevity through precise preparation and fitting techniques.

With my previous dentist moving on I was worried where I would end up. Luckily I got into to chantry house this year.... I have had a few fillings and couple root canal treatments here. The treatments were carried out extremely well and pretty much pain free considering the extent of my fillings thats good going. Would definitely recommend as I feel well looked after here 5*****

The dentist Anitha Diwaker is extremely dishonest and not to be trusted. I am so disappointed with her.

A first visit for any new dental practice is a worry, especially when you are nervous. However, my experience at Chantry House dental practice with the dentist was a fantastic, reassuring and relaxing experience. I felt that I was listened too and was made to feel very comfortable. Speaking to friends who also go to this practice, I can confirm that the dentist is very trustworthy, caring and professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Anyone who is nervous or just looking for a new start, try Chantry House. It will put all your fears to rest. I have no idea how anyone can score this practice

I have known Anita as a colleague for the last few years and as an orthodontist, I have the pleasure of carrying out brace treatment for her patients. She has helped me in my work by removing teeth and carrying out other dental treatments for many children over the years. The families have been delighted with her gentle approach and a private practice setting will allow her style to flourish. I find her professional experience reassuring and her referrals to me reflect her diligence. As a friend she is warm-hearted, considerate and easy to talk to. I wish her all the best at Chantry House and hope

The first time I visited Anita Diwakar and I will say being a very nervous patient I found her very understanding trustworthy very professional and easy to talk too. She was very patient with me while I had my treatment and I will be less nervous next time I have any treatment. I will be recommending all my friends and family to her.
