Services
Hygienist Services
Our dental hygienists specialise in preventive care and gum disease treatment. They provide professional cleanings, plaque removal, and oral health education. Patients receive personalised advice on brushing techniques, interdental cleaning, and dietary habits to maintain optimal oral health. Regular hygiene visits help prevent tooth decay and periodontal disease progression.
Teeth Whitening
We offer professional teeth whitening using custom-fitted tray systems. Our dentists assess suitability and create tailored bleaching plans. The home treatment involves wearing trays with bleaching gel over several weeks, achieving gradual results with reduced sensitivity compared to rapid bleaching methods. Follow-up appointments ensure safe and effective outcomes.
Dental Implants
Our implant specialists provide permanent tooth replacement solutions. The process involves surgical placement of titanium fixtures followed by osseointegration. We offer full arch rehabilitation and work with dental laboratories to create natural-looking restorations. Treatment spans several months with multiple stages to ensure proper healing and long-term success.
Dental Check-Up
Comprehensive dental examinations assess oral health status. Dentists check teeth, gums, jaw joints, and soft tissues while taking X-rays when necessary. Patients receive preventive advice on diet, hygiene, and lifestyle factors. Check-ups help detect issues early and determine appropriate recall intervals based on individual risk factors.
Private Dentistry
We offer a range of private treatments including Invisalign, facial aesthetics, composite veneers, and direct bonding. Our dentists provide advanced restorative options like crowns, bridges, and implant-supported dentures. Private patients benefit from enhanced materials and techniques for improved aesthetics and functional outcomes.
