Services
Dental Implants
Our advanced dental implant solutions restore missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking results. Using 3D CT scanning for precise planning, our implant surgeons place titanium posts that integrate with your jawbone for lasting stability. The process includes surgical placement followed by custom crown fitting after healing, typically completed in six months. Patients benefit from improved chewing function, facial structure preservation, and enhanced confidence through our comprehensive implant dentistry service.
Invisalign
This discreet teeth straightening system uses custom-made, removable aligners to gradually reposition teeth without traditional metal braces. Our specialists create digital treatment plans showing expected tooth movement over time. Patients receive new aligners every two weeks, with check-ups every six weeks to monitor progress. The average treatment duration ranges from 12-18 months, offering a comfortable, nearly invisible solution for correcting misaligned teeth and improving bite function.
Root Canal Treatment
Our specialist endodontists perform pain-free root canal treatments using advanced techniques and sedation options. The procedure removes infected pulp tissue while preserving natural tooth structure, typically completed in one or two visits. Digital imaging ensures precise cleaning and filling of root canals, with follow-up crown placement recommended for protection. Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions and benefit from our specialists' expertise in saving teeth that might otherwise require extraction.
Teeth Whitening
Professional teeth whitening treatments address discolouration through custom-fitted trays and medical-grade bleaching gels. Our dentists first conduct shade assessments before creating tailored whitening plans. The home treatment involves daily application over two weeks, with touch-up kits available. Patients achieve visibly whiter teeth while maintaining enamel safety, with options for sensitivity management. The service includes initial consultation, custom tray fabrication, and follow-up reviews to ensure optimal results.
Emergency Care
We prioritise same-day or next-day appointments for dental emergencies including toothaches, infections, and trauma. Our experienced team provides immediate pain relief and diagnostic assessments using digital imaging. Emergency treatments range from temporary fillings to extractions or root canal therapy as required. Patients receive clear guidance on managing symptoms before appointments, with sedation options available for anxious individuals seeking urgent dental care.
