Services
General Dentistry
We provide comprehensive general dentistry services including check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and extractions. Our experienced team uses modern techniques to maintain optimal oral health for patients of all ages. From routine maintenance to complex restorative treatments, we focus on preventive care and early intervention to preserve natural teeth.
Orthodontics
Our orthodontic treatments include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and Invisalign clear aligners. We offer both NHS and private options for patients seeking improved dental alignment. Our specialists create custom treatment plans to address crowding, spacing, and bite issues while maintaining aesthetic concerns.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatment uses custom-made clear aligners to gradually straighten teeth without traditional braces. Our certified providers create digital treatment plans for discreet teeth movement. The removable aligners allow normal eating and cleaning while achieving desired smile transformations through sequential tray changes.
Cosmetic Enhancements
We offer various cosmetic dental treatments including teeth whitening, gum lift surgery, and dermal fillers. Our Tooth Whitening system uses custom trays for safe colour lightening. Gum contouring procedures improve smile aesthetics, while facial fillers address cosmetic concerns around the mouth area.
Emergency Care
Battle Hill provides urgent dental care for pain, trauma, or infections. Registered patients receive priority access to emergency appointments, with a 24/7 helpline available for advice. Our team handles toothaches, broken teeth, and other urgent issues with prompt, effective treatment to relieve discomfort.
