Services
Dental Implants
Our dental implant procedure offers permanent solutions for missing teeth. Using titanium fixtures integrated with jawbone tissue, we create stable foundations for custom crowns. Patients benefit from improved chewing function and natural-looking aesthetics. Our implant specialists utilise advanced imaging technology for precise placement.
Invisalign Treatment
Invisalign clear aligners provide discreet orthodontic correction for adults and teens. Our certified providers create custom treatment plans using digital impressions. Removable trays allow normal eating habits while gradually straightening teeth. Average treatment duration ranges from 12-18 months with regular check-ups.
Facial Rejuvenation
Our facial rejuvenation services combine dental expertise with cosmetic enhancement. Certified practitioners administer anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers using premium products. Treatments target smile lines, lip volume, and facial contours while maintaining natural expressions. Safety protocols follow medical aesthetic guidelines.
Root Canal Treatment
Specialist root canal therapy preserves damaged teeth through precise infection removal. Using rotary instruments and advanced disinfection techniques, we eliminate bacteria from dental pulp chambers. Post-treatment crowns protect restored teeth, with success rates exceeding 95% when properly maintained.
Children's Dentistry
Our child-friendly dental services focus on preventative care and early intervention. We employ positive reinforcement techniques to create comfortable experiences. Treatments include fissure sealants, fluoride applications, and trauma management. Parent education sessions promote lifelong oral hygiene habits.

Despite practices being shut currently, Dr Kiersz was able to help and advise over the phone. Ready and willing to be available to his patients - and also followed up to make sure everything was going okay.

Very friendly, family run practice. We travel an hour each way to see Pawel or Ewelina. Would not swap them for any local dentist.
