Dental Implants
Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, offering both functional and aesthetic benefits. Using titanium posts anchored into the jawbone, implants provide a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. This treatment prevents bone loss, restores natural chewing ability, and enhances facial structure. Ideal for patients seeking a long-term alternative to traditional dentures or bridges, implants integrate seamlessly with existing teeth.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers a discreet and removable alternative to traditional braces for straightening teeth. Custom-made aligners gradually shift teeth into their desired position, correcting issues like crowding, gaps, and misalignment. The nearly invisible trays allow for easy oral hygiene and unrestricted eating. Suitable for adults and teens, this treatment combines advanced 3D imaging with comfortable, BPA-free plastic for effective orthodontic results.
Crowns
Crowns restore strength and appearance to damaged or weakened teeth, often following root canal treatment or large fillings. Crafted from porcelain or metal alloys, these custom-fitted caps protect the tooth structure while mimicking natural aesthetics. The process involves two visits: one for preparation and impressions, and another for placement. Crowns typically last 10-15 years with proper care.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening addresses discolouration caused by age, diet, or lifestyle habits. Using hydrogen peroxide-based gels, the treatment lightens enamel while minimising sensitivity. Options include in-office sessions for rapid results or custom take-home trays for gradual improvement. Results can last several years with maintenance, offering a non-invasive way to enhance smile aesthetics.
Composite Bonding
Composite bonding corrects minor imperfections like chips, gaps, or discolouration using tooth-coloured resin. The minimally invasive procedure preserves natural enamel and requires no anaesthesia in most cases. Applied and shaped directly onto the tooth, the material is hardened with UV light and polished for a seamless finish. Results are immediate and typically last 3-10 years with proper oral care.

First off all Id like to say thank you to Tracey for always be so kind, professional and going the extra mile to fit me in as my work schedule is always busy. After breaking my tooth last month, I had an appointment with Krishna and Clare. They are both fantastic. After being nervous they both put me at ease and asked me if I was ok throughout the procedure. The tooth that was worked on looks fantastic and Im really happy with the outcome.
