Services
Routine Exams
Our comprehensive dental examinations assess oral health through medical history review, clinical evaluation, and diagnostic imaging. Patients discuss concerns about their teeth's appearance and functionality while receiving professional treatment explanations. Regular check-ups help detect issues early, ensuring timely interventions that maintain long-term dental wellness through preventive care strategies.
Dental Hygiene
Professional teeth cleaning removes plaque and tartar buildup while screening for gum disease indicators. Our hygienists provide tailored oral care education covering brushing techniques, flossing methods, and dietary advice. Regular hygiene sessions prevent periodontal problems and maintain fresh breath through specialised preventive treatments.
Dental Fillings
We restore decayed teeth using amalgam or tooth-coloured composite materials. Glass ionomer options release fluoride to strengthen weakened areas while matching natural tooth appearance. Treatment selection considers cavity severity, patient preferences, and long-term durability requirements for functional bite restoration.
Emergency Dentistry
Same-day emergency appointments address dental trauma, severe pain, and broken teeth. Our team prioritises prompt pain relief while managing infections and repairing damaged teeth. Patients receive immediate attention during operating hours with clear guidance for after-hours emergencies through NHS services.
Teeth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments enhance smiles using Boutique or Enlighten systems under dental supervision. These clinically tested methods safely lighten tooth enamel while minimising sensitivity. Treatments include custom trays for home application or in-practice procedures achieving noticeable results within controlled parameters.

I visited Whitstable Dental Centre for an emergency appointment while on holiday. All staff were very pleasant, friendly and helpful. Although they couldn't offer any treatment, I came away with advice and reassurance. Thank you.
