Cosmetic Dentistry
Transform your smile with tailored cosmetic treatments including veneers, bonding, and smile makeovers. Our specialists create natural-looking results that enhance facial aesthetics while maintaining dental health. Patients benefit from improved confidence through discreet, long-lasting solutions that address discolouration, misalignment, and damaged teeth.
Root Canal Therapy
Relieve dental pain and save damaged teeth with advanced root canal procedures. Our dentists use precision techniques to remove infected tissue while preserving tooth structure. Patients receive thorough explanations of treatment options, with emphasis on comfort and successful long-term outcomes through proper restoration following the procedure.
Dental Implants
Replace missing teeth with permanent implant solutions that mimic natural tooth function and appearance. We offer comprehensive implant services from initial assessment to surgical placement and crown fitting. Patients gain improved chewing ability and facial structure support through biocompatible titanium implants integrated with jawbone tissue.
Invisalign

Patients benefit from removable trays that allow normal eating habits and oral hygiene routines during the orthodontic correction process.

Our practice prioritises same-day emergency bookings to alleviate pain and prevent complications. Patients receive immediate assessment followed by appropriate interventions to stabilise conditions and schedule necessary follow-up care.

It was really bad experience with my tooth treatment. There was a filling problem in one of my teeth one year ago. While examine they suggested to do minor filling for other two teeth as well. I did all these (3 teeth) treatment with them. In past, i never had any sensitivity issue, however after treatment, I started facing sensitivity issue and did followup multiple times and got some treatment, however it's still not 100% cure. Now, I am having problem with my other teeth which they did filling. Now, i have changed my dentist and it seems turning out as teeth crack which may require root canal

Fantastic service. Honest advice, calming for nervous patients, great advice from the hygienist and a fair pricing structure with no sudden hikes or unnecessary x-rays and fees.
Covid aware and strict on temperature checks and sanatising. This is my 3rd visit to this dentist and each visit has surpassed my expectations. Would recommend if you can afford to go private

I had an appointment at 20/20 Dental Practice on Monday 3 August with my hygienist Sarah Russell whom I have known for more than 30 years.She always has had to give me injections to have my teeth cleaned as i am a VERY NERVOUS patient who has very sensitive teeth.This time to my amazement she decided to try without injections.I trust her completely and for the first time i had my teeth cleaned with no injections.Sarah has always been no 1 for me.She is a fabulous ,kind and sympathetic person.If you have a dread of dentists go to 20/20 dental practice .Really the best dentists i have ever found
